Holiday rentals near Antigua Botanical Gardens

We stayed in this beautiful house for 5 nights. It is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The view is absolutely stunning. The pool is an added bonus. We absolutely loved it.

My family and I had a fabulous time at Villa SeaGlass. The Villa is stylishly decorated yet homely and welcoming. The layout is perfect and it is set in a wonderful location with an amazing view and close to many amenities -restaurants, bars, supermarkets and beaches. Thank you to everyone at Villa SeaGlass, we will be back!

After reading every review, we wondered if this was too good to be true. It was every bit and more just as described. Bed was comfy, never too hot without air conditioning because you leave doors and windows open 24 hours a day, just like living out in nature but with the mosquito net around which definitely was needed as well as sprays and citronella candles, all supplied for you! Big enough fridge and freezer if needed (for ice for yr cocktails )As the hosts were on sight ( who were so lovely btw) you could ask about anything and Janie was great at giving advice re places to go and eat. I could write a book about their place, I was in awe at their life’s work creating this tropical paradise calling in nature ie the beautiful hummingbirds, finches, bananaquits, lizards, bird of prey one day, etc. etc.One of the things that was an added bonus was doing some water colour painting on Janies veranda with a few likeminded friends while there ( I had brought my paints with me ) The food that was already there was so thoughtful so we didn’t have to rush out straight away.You definitely needed a truck as roads were full of potholes, some places worse than others. There were so many beautiful beaches our favourite Pidgeon Point, easy to swim in the calm clear waters and 2 cafes at each end of beach. We didn’t find eating out very cheap but a lot of choice at English Harbour just a few minutes drive away. I could go on, a very special place we would love to revisit.

Beautiful property. Ideal location for us. Janie was so helpful and welcoming.

I cannot recommend Driftwood Cottage highly enough. We spent a glorious three days-after a busy week sailing around the island in a catamaran. Sarah is a great host: attentive but respectful of our privacy. The cottage is beautiful and the pool and gardens delightful. A great, quiet spot but literally 10 minutes from the airport! Would return in a heartbeat!

What a beautiful spot to spend our Christmas. The views are incredible and you can happily lose hours swinging in the hammocks. Would highly recommend you stay here. I am glad we had a 4 wheel drive car due to the road up to the house.

Harbour Breeze was a wonderful place to stay. I was there with my sister, niece and 2 year old great nephew. This place is so well set up, it had everything we needed for a fantastic holiday. Very comfortable beds and well appointed bathrooms. Great kitchen made self catering easy, outside area overlooking harbour was wonderful to sit out and eat, especially with fairy lights. Having transport around the resort is essential especially with a toddler as accommodation is some distance from the stunning Jolly Beach. Gavin and Ajani were so helpful sorting this out for us. It made a huge difference. Cachema also very responsive to any questions. We were very well looked after. We highly recommend this as a place to stay in Antigua. A couple of very small things - the back gate onto the pontoon could be more childproof, some bedside lamps in the second bedroom would be good and we bought a corkscrew which we left for future guests.

Our recent stay at Cactus House was nothing short of extraordinary. The villa itself is a clean, well furnished property that is well designed and comfortable. The spacious rooms were nicely furnished, creating an atmosphere of comfort and ease. The private pool, shimmering under the warm sun, was the perfect place to unwind and soak up the view and surroundings. Special shout out to Hazel (property manager), Lava (driver) and Iris (car rental) who were exceptional. Their warm hospitality and attentiveness made me feel like a cherished guest, not just to the villa but to Antigua. They were always ready to assist with anything, from arranging private tours to responding to WhatsApp messages. Beyond the amenities, what truly made my stay special was the sense of peace and privacy that Cactus offers. It was the ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, a place where I could truly relax and recharge. I would wholeheartedly recommend Cactus House, Jolly Harbour and Antigua to anyone seeking a truly memorable getaway. It is a hidden gem that will leave you longing for a return visit. Couple of things for consideration: 1. There is quite a steep climb up to the villa. With heavy suitcases, this is a challenge (up and down). 2. All bedrooms have AC but the lounge and kitchen, which are upstairs, do not. Heat rises and it can get uncomfortably warm there. Fans helped a little. Enjoy!
