Private Waterfront Villa (Private Sea Access, Pool, Stunning, Contemporary)

Our family of 3 spent 2 weeks at Villa H. Not our first trip to Antigua or to the villa. We had another amazing holiday. The villa, with its modern lines and thought to every detail, exudes class and comfort. And with the mind blowing view on the national park and absolutely private waterfront, it's just the perfect place to spend a vacation. Easy swimming and snorkeling in front of the house, BBQs on the terrace, and one of the best places for kitesurfing on the nearby Green Island (the school can come to pick you up at nearby dock).

Christiane, the house manager, is always available to help for anything you can imagine - from finding fresh fish, a nanny or giving you quick updates on the newest and latest in Antigua. It all just feels so easy and comfortable.

This is by far the most gorgeous house we have rented in the Caribbean and we have been renting in several islands for 15 years now. The view is incredible, with private access to the water and a small but truly refreshing infinity pool. The garden is superb as is the decor in the house. extremely comfortable. AC working well in both bedrooms, and there is always a breeze in the main living areas of the villa. we did not have bug issue except for one night. the kitchen and grill are paradise if you like to cook like we do. The negative review must be from some of the most unlucky people on earth! Christiane is a wonderful hostess. And, the villa has its own cistern, very convenient when the government decides to cut off water (happened twice), and its own generator which kicked in at least once during our stay. Do your grocery shopping at the Epicurean and avoid St John: for a stay just perfect and beautiful and quiet. We are repeating next year!

We've just returned from our 3rd visit to Villa H, and the experience was as wonderful as ever! Perfect location, wonderful design, and a greatly caring and attentive owner! We just love love love it and hope to be back again!

We have returned home after our stay at Villa H. We booked Villa H with cash payment, upfront since they do not accept credit card or Paypal. The owner was out of the country, so we were met by a friend who had been staying there.

The listing states that there is air conditioning, but one bedroom unit was broken. The site also states that the first bedroom has a built in tub, but this is clearly false advertising as there are no water fixtures or drain in what might have been a tub at one time. Since there are no screens in the windows, leaving the windows open at night infests the home with insects and large mosquitos making it unbearable. We also found three large cockroaches in the guest bathroom since that window is open all the time.

When we contacted the owner the next morning to have the AC repaired, we were told they could not come that day. After we stressed that this was not acceptable, the repair man finally arrived at 3:00pm. We spent the entire day there waiting for them and were unable to leave the villa. He spent about three hours, explaining that the wiring had been chewed by rodents and that the AC unit was not repairable. Trying to be accommodating, we simply asked for a fan to circulate the air since there are no ceiling fans in the bedrooms. I was shocked when the owner refused to purchase a fan, stating that there were no fans available for 220v on the entire island.

By this time of night, we were stuck for another sleepless night, trying to share one bedroom and sleeping on the floor. This was not our expectation at the price paid for this villa.

On the third day, we spent the entire morning without electricity, or water to bathe or even flush the toilet.

I was equally surprised that the owner refused to offer any refund for the horrible two days we had, and only agreed to refund the third night after we left the villa.

Since there were no bath amenities provided (shampoo/conditioner), we had to make a special trip to the nearest grocery store, 40 minutes away. We also spent hundreds of dollars renting a car and buying food that was wasted since we had no electricity to cook with and were forced to leave early.

It was very unprofessional to put a friend in such a difficult position since the owner stopped responding to our numerous emails and left her to deal the business problems. I would avoid this property at all cost.

My husband, daughter and I stayed at Villa H and loved every minute of it. The view is stunning, and whether we used the infinity pool overlooking the water, or walked down to the sundeck on the water to avail ourselves of snorkeling in the beautiful, blue water with amazing living reefs to explore, we never wanted to leave. The house was stocked with what we needed and we just brought a few provisions for breakfast overlooking the sea from the amazing outdoor dining area. It really felt like we were in a movie as the location and glass filled house is just lovely. It is about a half hour drive from English Harbor, where there are a number of good restaurants, although going to Mama Pasta's for lunch is always a nice option too. Christiane was extremely accommodating, and really went out of her way to make us feel welcome. We ended our vacation totally relaxed,and rested and not wanting to leave Villa H!
