Fantastic cottage, great location. Ideal for a quiet getaway and close enough to beaches, Five Islands Village and St John's. Only minor thing is it could do with a lick of paint here and there! We had a great stay and would give the cottage the highest recommendation.

We loved our stay in the Spice cottage! We really felt like we were in a treehouse with the birds so close. This is a great place to stay with kids. Beaches nearby are wonderful!

Stayed in a lovely cottage, Marco was incredibly helpful and kind and Omar helped us get wherever we needed to go or whatever we needed. One of the beaches was a 3 minute walk away. We really highly recommended Gallery Bay Cottages!

The cottage was fabulous, the view was beautiful, my only reservation was the cottage being up a fairly steep hill (well steep for me) otherwise I couldnt nor would want to fault it. The actual Galley Bay beach has no sun beds or refreshments but that said the smaller bay has a patch of grass you can lay on, more shade and a much smaller unihabited bay. Absolutely loved it all

Beautiful cottage in Antigua

Great stay with beach views and 10 mins walking from Galley Bay beach; we were greeted at the airport by cottage staff who took us to the cottage (following her car) and even showed us the nearest supermarket. We had a great stay here and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice quiet cozy cottage not far from the centre but in its own own nature world

Beautiful, spacious room with a view. The room was pretty much perfect. Marco was a friendly, responsive and reliable host who clearly decorated his rooms with care. "Treehouse" was very spacious for 1 and would be perfect for a couple. Internet was fast and the AC worked fine. The room was clean and a few minutes walk from the beach. There's not much around though, so bring your groceries!

There was a beautiful view, and very peaceful and quiet . I didn’t like the steep climb up to it every day, but it was worth the view when you got there.

A very quiet location with a balcony overlooking the sea. There is a distant view of cruise ships going in and out of St Johns. The beach was hidden by trees behind the beach but Access was easy via a gate in the fence of the resort backing onto the beach. The return from the beach was via a road up hill then a steep ramp followed by a series of uneven steps and short, uneven paths. Breeze cottage was very well equipped with all you would normally need including gas BBQ. The air con was fine but only required at night, sea breezes providing a pleasant effect. The WiFi operated well and log on was without difficulty.

Amazing cottage, I stayed in Breeze by myself. Roomy, breeze through the windows was amazing, view is amazing. Short walk to beach, right down the hill, no beach chairs though. Owners were responsive when I had questions or needs. The driveway is steep and taxi's can not drive up, so just be mindful of that, you gotta lug everything up that so pack accordingly. I had a local that did my driving and tours which allowed me to fully relax. Beautiful island and property. Bed was comfortable! Will definately stay here again!

The property is just gorgeous with amazing views. I stayed in the studio cabin. It was clean and nice. I had all kind of birds visit everyday on the porch. There is WIFI but no TV. Bring your laptop to watch TV. My suggestion to the owner is to get a couple of beach chairs for the cabin. The beach is right there but no chairs are provided

Beautiful Views!

My stay at Galley Bay Cottages in Antigua was a great experience. The cottage was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the views of the ocean were absolutely stunning. The property is a quiet and serene retreat with easy access to the beach. A major highlight was the hostess, Michela, who went out of her way to make sure I got to the cottage and that I was comfortable and well taken care of throughout our stay. While I greatly enjoyed my time there, there were a few minor issues. The parking area was very rugged, and the path to the cottage was a steep climb that wasn't well-lit at night. The air conditioning was only in the bedroom, and there was no TV in the room. Despite these small drawbacks, the breathtaking views and exceptional hospitality from Michela made for a memorable and relaxing getaway.

Our host was above and beyond. He met us 30 mins away so we could follow him to the cottages. He also stopped along the way to show us points of interest, local food, and access to the beach. The cottage was even better than expected. We had all basic ammenities plus more. Very well kept property. Beautiful view. Walking distance to the Galley Bay Beach. Short drive for a couple options of basic groceries and good open air restaurant food. (Also short drive to other beaches including Long Bay and Hawks Bill beaches. We also recommend going up the hill from his place to the top of the little mountain. Great view of St. Johns on one side, beautiful mountain view, and beautiful sunset over the water. We highly recommend giving this place a stay, our 3 nights there were great! Thanks Marco! - Rafe & Iveta

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We certainly cannot recommend this place. Not sure why the good/decent reviews. Cottage is not kept properly with few if anything working right -- toilet that moves, stovetop doesn't light without match, just wooden windows that doesn't open/close properly. Frog, biting insects (even with coils everywhere), animals noises SO VERY LOUD all night long that it's impossible to sleep with fan, air conditioner, and white noise machine. We had to wear ear plugs AND headset to sleep every night. Can't wait to leave this place. Never again. Sorry! Only good comment is that it's near the beach. We love Galley Bay beach.
