We had an incredible stay and can’t recommend this place enough! The host was extremely responsive and made everything so easy from start to finish. The villa was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described. One of the nicest touches was arriving to a stocked fridge, which helped us get settled in for the first couple of days without any stress. Truly above and beyond hospitality - five stars is an understatement!

Really great location, accommodation with quiet beach

The property was as described and very good, Nathan was an excellent host and the house keeping ladies were great. Turtles seen in the bay most days, complimentary water taxi available to the Italian and French restaurants at the boatyard, plus English & Falmouth harbours only a 5 minute drive away. Overall a really super vacation.

Amazing accomodations

We absolutely loved our stay at Soleil! The location was amazing and the room was more than we could have hoped for. Nathan and his staff have literally thought of everything to make the stay as enjoyable as possible. There is plenty of places to put your stuff, the complimentary beach chairs and towels were so lovely. Access to a washer was also a major plus. I cannot say enough about how wonderful our stay was. Book it! You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful hideaway

This is a lovely relaxing place away from the crowds overlooking Galleon beach and you have your own private balcony with a stunning view. It is a charming place and kept very clean and well maintained. A romantic hideaway if I weren’t sharing with my sister! Nathan and Clare were fantastic hosts, very responsive and accommodating for our arrival a little later than originally planned. This place is a great find and well represented in the pictures and description.

Beautiful views and a Quaint little cottage!

Soleil cottage is an adorable spot located at the end of Galleon Beach. It has beautiful views and is tastefully decorated in a classic Caribbean style. Everyone we met at Moondance was very friendly and Nathan was helpful in addressing our questions!! The Loose Cannon is a great spot to view the amazing sunsets. Take the water taxi to Nelson’s Dockyard and English Harbour also has many restaurants and shops to check out for island treasures. Shirley Heights on Sundays is a must! Thank you for hosting us!!

Loved every minute

We stayed a week (too short). Loved the unbeatable view of Galleon Bay from our deck with a sofa, comfy chair, diningroom table and chairs. The accomodations were attractive and comfortable. Extremely comfortable king sized bed, the modern bathroom with its large closet, and the kitchen, so well stocked with pots and pans, plates and bowls, silverware etc. We enjoyed having a broad range of breakfast food and coffee/tea awaiting us. In the evening we loved hearing the surf and the seranade of the tree frogs. The view with sailboats and the beach was lovely. It was very private. And we had the path to Galleon Beach. We rented a car and went to pigeon cove beach & lovely restaurants. The staff was friendly and very good. A well run vacation place. We are coming back for two weeks next year. Everyone we met was friendly and nice.

Perfect everything

We loved the charming little cottage. The view of Galleon beach is fabulous. The hosts were friendly and responsive. Great location for snorkeling and hiking. However, there are no restaurants, bars or grocery stores near by so you’ll need to take a ten minute taxi ride for that. (word has it there may be a new bar/cafe opening on Galleon beach in a few months). We were also impressed with complementary items waiting for us in the refrigerator. The kitchen was well outfitted for cooking meals.

Fabulous

Fabulous stay. Nathan, Clare and Fiona could not be more helpful. The property is very tasteful and has stupendous views across the harbour. Galleon Beach is great for snorkelling and swimming. Would suggest going to the supermarket in Jolly Harbour or St John’s as more choice there.

A week in paradise

We loved our stay in English Harbour. Soleil is a cozy place to stay only a short distance from the beach. Nathan was great getting us settled and had lots of information for us. We were there to relax and be low key so this really worked for us. The beach is amazing and we did a snorkel adventure with Scooter Snorkeling right from our beach. Amazing all the things we saw, turtles, barracuda, small ship wreak, huge assortment of fish and the pillars or Hercules. We ventured out to a few other beaches during our stay and found the entire island to be wonderful. We grocery shopped and cooked most of our own meals as it was the off season and most everything was closed. We did enjoy eating at the Seabreeze cafe for breakfast a few days and lunch on occasion. This place is right at the base of Shirley Heights, which is a must do for their Sunday Night party. We walked daily and ventured up a few of the hiking trails to Shirley Heights. We loved the hot tub and the grill, great to come back and relax after the beach. We definitely recommend staying here in this property.

Lovely spot

We enjoyed our stay in Moondance Soleil very much. Fabulous views, beautifully furnished and spectacular location. You walk down to the edge of the property and a beautiful swimming and snorkelling beach is right there. Nathan and Claire who checked us in were very helpful and Fiona went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable. The hot water was a bit iffy, but it didn't spoil our stay. We'd go back again and hope to. We rented a car and I think it would be difficult to manage without one. But it's a short drive to English Harbour and all its restaurants and amenities. Walking distance along the beach is a high end resort called The Inn. We splashed out and had dinner there our last night and it was amazing. You have to call and see if they have room. Overall, we were very happy and recommend Soleil.

Thank you for your review Nancy. We loved having you as guests at Moondance and hope to welcome you back again soon. The hot water issue is resolved now, it had to do with flow rate. We are so glad it didn’t affect your enjoyment of staying in Soleil Cottage.

Charming cottage with an unbelievable view

From arrival to departure this visit at Soleil was more than what I expected. Nathan and Clare greeted you upon your arrival and the refrigerator was stocked with the basics so you did not have to immediately go purchase food. The cottage was spacious, although the best part was the porch with the magnificent view. There are stone steps to climb going up to the cottage but they were lit at night. I recommend Soleil for anyone desiring a great view, nice beach and tranquility.

Superb location both Kai and Soleil well appointed.

Beautiful cottages, very comfortable, very good standard of linen and towels etc. 30 seconds to the beach and recliners and cool boxes provided. Excellent Standard of Cleanliness. Water taxi from the beach hit and miss but doesn’t detract from the location. Really good snorkelling from the waters edge with turtles and fish plentiful. Daily beach bar to watch the sunset from, all in all well worth a visit

Fabulous location and views in Antigua

My husband and I had been sailing for 2 months in the Caribbean and needed a land base. Soleil worked perfectly: close to great restaurants, great swimming and snorkeling right from Soleil, great hiking to Shirley Heights and phenomenal views from the carpenter trail (starting from Soleil) of the starts for the races of Antigua race week! Plus it’s location was entirely peaceful. Will return.
