Only a few yards away you walk back into history with the old character filled buildings and streets. In the countryside the many abandoned sugar mills act as a reminder of bygone age. Nelsons dockyard is a fully restored working harbour which has won many awards and only a short distance away is Shirley heights and its colonial fort - here there are stunning views over both the sea and countryside. Worth a visit is Betty's Hope which was Antigua’s first sugar estate, some restoration of the ruins has taken place and the Mill is now totally intact. All guests are provided with our “Insiders Guide to Antigua” complied by the owners from over 15 years of experience of visiting the island.

This was our second stay at Villa Calabash, because we love it so much! The kitchen and living area are spacious with high ceilings and an abundance of light, and the bedrooms and bathrooms are well-equipped and nicely decorated. The pool is a joy! It's shallow, so it stays warm, and is completely private due to the abundance of lush bouganvillea. Location is perfect.

Hi Diana, I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at Calabash Villa. Best regards Alan.
Alan the host was extremely communicative before and during our stay. Whenever we had a question he was quick to respond. He sent us all the best places to visit in a comprehensive local guide brochure. The villa was spectacular. Clean, large space, great pool with comfy sun lounges and lush gardens. The villa was safe and private and we all slept really well. We loved being able to walk out to the beach around the corner and supermarket to pick up essentials. Following Alan’s recommendation we used Keanu the taxi guy multiple times who was punctual and reliable. Thanks Alan and villa management for a memorable stay. Highly recommended!

This villa is amazing, with 4 great sized bedrooms, 3 bathrooms (fantastic water pressure), an enormous kitchen and living area, and that beautiful pool. It is very well equipped with all the kitchen utensils we needed, plus a laundry room with cool boxes to use, and a big barbecue that we cooked on a couple of times. We loved watching all the wildlife outside, particularly the hummingbirds.Alan was extremely helpful from my initial enquiry onwards, he also provides his own guide to Antigua and Barbuda which proved very useful, and answered any other questions I had. The management company met us on arrival and the ladies were a great help during our stay when we had any queries.Calabash is in a great position, just a short walk from Jolly Beach, with supermarket and several restaurants within walking distance, and a very short drive to several other west beautiful coast beaches. We hired a car and found driving pretty easy, they drive on the left and no one drives much above 40mph, we visited the south and west coasts with no issues other than the odd car on the other side swerving a pothole or encountering a herd of goats! Highly recommended, thank you Alan!

We really enjoyed our stay at Calabash Villa. We were four friends, so appreciated the space of 4 great bedrooms, with comfortable beds. We loved the pool area with sofas and dining area and especially the lovely view with the surrounding garden. We felt well prepared before we arrived with information about the villa, the area and Antigua and we were well looked after by the local teamfor anything we needed help with during our stay. We would definitely come back again. Many thanks!

Calabash Villa was ideally located with less than 10 minute walk to beautiful Jolly Beach, restaurants and grocery store. The villa was spacious with large bedrooms and eat-in kitchen. While the living room was a bit small, we hardly spent time in it and opted to sit outside on beautiful patio. Both the owner Alan and property manager Jovanna were gracious hosts and responsive to all questions.

The house was exactly as described and very clean. The management company was communicative and available to answer questions, arrange transportation, etc. We rented golf carts which made getting to the beach very quick and easy, although you can also walk. Easy access to grocery, restaurants, beach. Very nice place!

Thank you for your recommendation we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Calabash.
We chose this location as there were 7 adults looking for a walkable location in Antigua. This VRBO checked every box for us. From the initial booking with the owner and mgmt staff, they were very responsive to our questions and easy to deal with before and during our stay! House was exactly as described. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to stay in Antigua and more specifically Jolly Harbour! Thanks again for your hospitality!

With less than a 10 minute walk to the beach and a 3 minute walk to the local grocery store the location of this villa was fantastic. The lush plants and garden are what really separate this villa from the others nearby as you feel totally secluded and honestly with the gigantic pool, enormous deck and all of the seating areas on the deck it made it hard for our family to actually leave the villa!

About the host
Hosted by Alan
Hi, I'm Alan, my wife and I have had the pleasure of owning Calabash Villa for the last 16 years during which time we have enjoyed many family holidays at all times of the year. Before settling on Antigua for a holiday home we considered many places, eventually checking out Antigua which ticked all our boxes, English speaking, warm and sunny all year round, beautiful beaches and scenery and friendly people. We furnished the villa to create a modern, light, spacious design that lights up as the sun shines in through the many windows. We always feel uplifted whether in the villa, on the deck, in the pool or on the beach, the blue sky, turquoise sea and lush greenery colour everything.
Why they chose this property
We bought our villa in 2007 and we have been visiting ever since often with our two grown up children and their partners and granny who absolutely love Antigua. We often spend Christmas and New Year in Antigua and would recommend Sailing week (late April) and not forgetting Carnival ( August). Calabash is ideally positioned with all the conveniences of Jolly Harbour Marina and with several beautiful beaches within minutes. For those wanting to explore the Island's many sights, travel north to the colourful St. John's, Fort James and Dickinson Bay or turn south along the scenic Fig Tree drive to Falmouth Harbour, English Harbour and the historic Nelsons Dockyard.
What makes this property unique
You do not need to have a car to enjoy our villa, being within walking distance of Jolly Harbour with it's restaurants, bars, shops and golf course, beautiful Jolly Beach & Valley Church Beach with beach chairs, sailing etc. For those wanting to explore further you can hire a car from Jolly Harbour for a few days and see the many sites and history of the island. On returning to the villa after time on the beach you can cool off in the pool, enjoy the sun loungers with drinks and look forward to your own BBQ as the sun sets. There is a Management team who are happy to help you with any sight seeing arrangements and assist you during your stay at the villa.
