    With the exception of one incident, all of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They are very rigid about the dress code in the restaurants... at dinner as far as men having to wear a collared shirt. Somehow we missed this bit of information when booking and believe it or not, we did not pack one single collared shirt. Our first night there, which was my birthday, we pleaded with the staff and then the manager to make an exception for just one evening and that we would go to town the next day to buy some collared shirts. We even offered for them to seat us "out of the way." They would not make an exception, but luckily they were able to dig up a collared shirt for my husband to borrow. by a Hotels.com guest on 01/16/13

    A short guide to Antigua

    This English-speaking island was once Great Britain’s most important Caribbean outpost. Now, the coral reefs that attracted the Royal Navy make the island a paradise for snorkelers and scuba divers, and the winding coastline features numerous secluded, sandy beaches. English Harbour and neighboring Shirley Heights are rich in landmarks that evoke the island’s colonial past.

    This place was amazing! My husband and I spent 4 nights here to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary and it was just what we needed - a quiet get away to reconnect and have time to ourselves. This resort is clean, the staff are friendly, and the food is delicious. We stayed in a deluxe room and the view of the ocean was gorgeous and the sound of […] the waves was so relaxing. The drinks were yummy - especially the rum punch. I would definitely go back and stay longer! Read more

    Wonderful, super relaxing hotel. The food was quite good. Perhaps not quite as good as a top quality restaurant, but for an all inclusive resort it was awesome. Plus you have the option of paying a surcharge at an additional restaurant (Ismay's) that is WELL WORTH IT if you really want a phenomenal meal. The beach is beautiful and peaceful, and my wife […] and I really enjoyed sitting out on the deck by the bar looking out at the ocean. If you want to go out and be active I recommend scheduling a boating trip, as the beach is not a snorkeling beach. We did the Extreme Circumnav through Adventure Antigua and really enjoyed it. The rest of the time we just relaxed and enjoyed the delicious food and drinks on the beach. The room was beautiful as well, and the room we stayed in had wi-fi and cable, which I appreciated.

    We loved our first stay at Galley Bay. The beachfront room couldn't have been any closer to the ocean. I loved waking to the sound of crashing waves. Every staff person we encountered was friendly. They build relationships with their guests and treat them like family. The food was great and the atmosphere at each restaurant was wonderful. I found the […] guests to be pretty sophisticated and low key. This isn't the place for someone looking for a party atmosphere. My only regret is that I wasn't prepared for the sand fleas. I was covered in bites and scratching like crazy. Another couple I met took garlic pills before coming which seemed to prevent the bites. So bring bug spray along with your sunscreen. Read more

    We stayed at Galley Bay for our honeymoon and were very happy with our choice. The beach and grounds are gorgeous, the room was huge, clean and beyond comfortable, and the staff was very nice. They brought us a bottle of complimentary champagne in our room the first day. The food was very good, particularly for an all-inclusive. What we absolutely loved […] about Galley Bay was the atmosphere of the resort. It was QUIET, incredibly peaceful, very relaxing, and very romantic. They made us feel like we were the only guests there, in a very good way. It was a superb place to unwind and recharge after all the wedding craziness. If you are traveling with a family or want a party place, go elsewhere. If you want a relaxing, romantic stay with your significant other in a beautiful location, Galley Bay is the place for you. We would definitely return. Read more

    I read previous reviews about possible service issues with the staff. We did not encounter any real problems with the resort. The only issue was with the snorkeling trip being unorganized, but that was through a seperate company on the island. Sometimes the service in a resturant can seem a little slower than we are used to in the states, but when you […] have a great view why be in a hurry. Living may just be a little slower than the typical rat race we have day to day, but its nice to be able to relax and take it slow. Read more

    My wife and I had a wonderful visit celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary at Galley Bay. We usually go to the Caribbean twice each year and have been to many wonderful places. We enjoy smaller, more private places, with casual elegance. (Royal Pavilion, Barbados, Caneel Bay, St. John, The Beachhouse (formerly Turks and Caicos Club), Turks and Caicos, […] to name a few.) We had a second floor, beachfront suite. The room was perfect for a beach vacation. Housekeeping was excellent. A/C was good. We loved the layout of the property. Everything was in walking distance and very easy to navigate. The grounds were very beautifully landscaped. The bar and restaurants locations were perfect. The beach cove was very scenic and private. There were a lot of rocks / coral along the beach, but there were clear areas for swimming, which were sandy. Most guests were either honeymooners or older couples. Honeymooners may find it too sedate if they are looking for a party and a lot of activities. The food was mediocre. The selection of beer and wine was limited. The service was hit or miss. There is no room service. The room refrigerator is only stocked for free on the first day with a couple of sodas, waters, and beers. There is no beach service. Evening entertainment of live bands could use some improvement. (Some of the singers were bad. They would have been better off just playing instrumentals.) All in all, a great place for a couple's get away! Read more

    We are 29 and have travelled throughout the Caribbean and Mexico on many occasions. I was expecting more from this resort based on the reviews. I read reviews constantly before choosing a property and I hope this will be helpful to someone else. I'll start with the good: The beach and ocean are in pristine condition. The best I have ever seen. Lunch […] and dinner are very good, especially for an all-inclusive resort. We stayed in a beachfront room and could literally walk out our door and onto the sand. Amazing! The weather was great - we were there 9 days and had only one bad day. Not having to fight for beach chairs was also great. It's not crowded and the whole resort is very quiet and peaceful. The bad: The breakfast buffet and menu do not change daily and that got old very quick. The service at the restaurants is painfully slow. I'm all about taking your time and embracing the Caribbean life, but this was crazy. The staff, while nice, are the least friendly all-inclusive staff I have ever encountered. The mini-bar is a joke. This is a very expensive hotel and you only provide guests with 2 beers and 2 soft drinks? Everywhere else I have been stocks them daily. Men are required to wear pants and collared shirts past 6pm. I guess that's okay for dinner (sort of), but they don't even let you go back and change into something more comfortable to sit by the bar?! The pool is very small. Tiny. The gym has like 2 pieces of equipment and is very hot. Read more

    This was the first extended vacation we have taken without our three kids and the stay at Galley Bay fulfilled every expectation. The setting and location of the resort was perfect; we were given a beachfront room that opened onto the gorgeous bay. The warm and understated service was accompanied by smiles and genuine desire to meet every need. The […] food was good though we would have preferred more grilled fish in favor of flour-dipped pan-fried. Breakfast was an excellent start to each day with an abundance of local fruits. The only place for improvement was the gym which was not nearly cool enough and had only two cardio machines. Read more

    Only hotel on the island of Antigua to have a private beach--Galley Bay does not share its beach with any other resort. In great weather, there may have been ten people on the beach, and four enjoying the waves. The major city is St. John--twenty minutes from the resort (20.00 cab fare) and is frequented by cruise lines; there are no other cities worth […] visiting (per the local opinion). The island is safe, and the resort was wonderful, especially the cuisine. I will be returning, even though the flight home was a bit exhausting. Read more

    I agree with the reviews written here. Galley Bay is for couples who are looking for excellent food, phenomenal view, and above and beyond customer service. The staff were ALWAYS helpful, courteous and ever ready to cater to your needs. They take pampering to a new level. My fiancee and I both agree that our stay at the Galley Bay was made much more […] fulfilling due to the phenomenal service of the staff. They truly go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. If you are looking for night entertainment this may not be the place for you as the band stops playing at 11pm. After 11pm there is not much in terms of a nightlife. But I must say that our cottage/hut was right on the beach. We stayed in Cottage #4. Our back door led right out to the beach. Drinks were all-inclusive. 3 restuarants on this resort. Ismay will cost you 70.00 per couple with reservation. The other two are inlcusive. All restaurants serve delicous food a la carte. Transportation to the town can be arranged by visitng guest services and requesting car service. I was annoyed about the difference in price to the airport. On our return to the airport, we were charged an extra fee because we left at 5:00 am. We were told the "standard rate" applies After 7 am. I think this was nonsense. Nevertheless, it was a great vacation! Read more

    Galley Bay was an amazing experience. It is very quiet but absolutely beautiful. Liked that there was not blaring music around all the time--in fact--never. The food was incredible. The rooms great--with a view to die for. I could throw a rock into the sea, it was that close. Took us a while to wind down and get into the 'do nothing' mode. Overall, […] it was great. Some days, the service was a little off--mostly the hostesses in the Seagrape were often very dour and cranky. But, the number of cranky employees was small and the facility so great, it was easy to overlook. Oh yes, the service at Gaugain was not very good at all. We only went once because we had an 8:30 reservation one night and we didn't even get a drink until almost 9:00!Other than that...all was amazing and we hope to return. EXCEPT--Delta was awful. Every leg was late. They were not very cooperative in booking decent reroutes. The hotel room they gave us when we missed our flight was awful. Appeared to be a hooker or two in the lobby. It was in an area where mostly truckers stayed. The windows were dirty. It was terrible. Almost ruined a perfectly relaxing vacation. The good news is we were so relaxed when we left that it would take a lot more than an horrendous airline to bring us down. We have vowed never to fly Delta again. Read more

    I will start off by saying I agree with the many other reviews posted on this site. Galley Bay is a relaxing, private and unpretentious resort. With only 98 rooms, we never had to worry about finding chairs by the pool or the beach. We stayed in a premium beachfront suite, where the sea was maybe 50ft. away from our door. Our room was on the bottom […] level, which was wonderful for easy access back to our room when needed. The resort was very peaceful and the food great. Make sure that you eat at the Gauguin restaurant for dinner as it is very romantic for two. Also, if you feel up to a challenging 15 minute walk up the mountain you can get a 360 degree view. There is a road on the side of the resort next to the jogging trail that will bring you to the top. The grade of the road is steep but the effort is worth the views! Read more

    Galley Bay was our first all-inclusive resort vacation. After reading many reviews, we had high expectations and we can honestly say our expectations were exceeded! From the moment you exit the taxi to the moment you have to leave, you are looked after by one smiling face after another. We were not disappointed by any meal during our stay. All meals […] are a la carte; except for the fruit, cereal, toast part of breakfast and the beach barbecue. Lunch & dinner menus are changed daily. A different local band plays nightly until 11 p.m. If you’re looking for late night entertainment, Galley Bay is not the place for you. The beach is lovely but very hot as there is no shade unless you go up under the palm trees. The ocean was lovely; snorkeling is reasonably good as there is a small coral reef. Sailing the Hobie cats and Sunfish were fun as you can get some good breezes off the shore. The pool was tranquil and relaxing with its refreshing waterfall. Though small, it was never crowded and there was no splashing – a positive of an adults-only resort! The Teepee bar was just a short walk away. There is no poolside bar service. Finally, ALL the resort staff was unbelievably welcoming and friendly providing outstanding and friendly service. Their attention to detail in dealing with the guests is incredible. Read more

    Galley Bay was amazing from the time we arrived at the resort. They met us with a nice cocktail and carried us to our room on the beach. The room was amazing but the view was breathtaking. 25 yards from the ocean! The meals were great and the drinks were even better. Relaxing and refereshing. Not congested at all. No kids running around and screaming. […] The grounds are very well taken care of. We spent half of a day walking around the resort, taking pictures and admiring the plants and wildlife. The pool was really great too. It was nice to be able to go in between the ocean and pool and the bar was right in the middle. The sun sets on that side of the island so you have a beautiful sunset to look forward to everyday. I would highly recommend Galley bay and will definitely be returning Read more

    We loved almost everything about this place. The service is unbelievable. Everyone at the resort was so nice and friendly. They remembered our names which gave all of the service a personal touch. I don't have the words to express how much we really appreciated how well they treated us. We will definitely go back. The only thing that was a minor issue […] is that after 7:00pm men must wear long pants, a collared shirt and closed shoes at the restaurants and bars. There is no where that you can go casual for dinner. The room was beautiful. The culture of the island is fantastic. It is a small more personable and quiet resort. We really can't wait to go back. We have talked about making it an annual destination. Read more

    This was our first time to Antigua and therefore first stay at Galley Bay. The resort was beautiful, very quiet, a great place to relax. Our room (preminum beachfront suite) was very clean and nice. The pre-stocked fridge was a bit different for me.....it came with 2 beer, 2 water & 4 pop then if you wanted more there was a charge. Crazy I thot for […] the price of this resort. I thot the bed & linens could have been a bit nicer, the bed was a bit hard for my liking. The service was great, very high quality.....it did taper off a bit towards the end of our stay most notibly having to ask for coffee 3 times in the mornings before getting any and dinner times extending from 1.5 hrs to 2.5 hrs. The food was excellent. I thought the Seagrape was best over the Gauguin...I prefered the selection best. Tho the Gauguin has a great atmosphere with it's private tables. The food a Ismay's was amazing but came with an extra $35 charge/person. This is an expensive resort and I think that charge was uncalled for and should be free to each customer once a week. The beach was great, nice soft sand and chairs always available in front of our room. Not sure if this is normal, but for our stay, the ocean was quite rough (red flag most days). I believe they said that particular bay was always rough, and used for it's surfing waves. The pool area was nice tho bar service was limited...if you wanted a drink you had to get it yourself....not a big deal. Teepee bar....great drinks. Read more

    We enjoyed our stay at Galley Bay very much but there were some small issues that prevented it from being really fantastic. Our room overlooking the beach and sea was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The hotel staff were generally excellent, friendly and efficient. The grounds beautifully tended and fogged regularly against insects. Try […] all the different restaurants as they each have their own charm. So to the issues. The quality of the food ranged from goodish to very good, and the house wine should have been much better. These thing are very important in an all inclusive resort. Otherwise the drinks available were very good. The gym really needs updating, and we are told this is already being planned. Galley Bay is a good example of a four star resort with potential to improve. Read more

    We spent 11 nights there at the end of November 2012 staying in Gauguin Cottage number 16. The cottage was excellent, views towards the lagoon and very quiet. The bedroom is airconditioned with a ceiling fan, the shower / dressing room with just a ceiling fan. They re fairly simple but in good condition and very much in style with the relaxed feeling […] of the resort. The food in all the restaurants is good albeit not gourmet. The overall theme is definitely Caribbean but with influences from all over. There is a great selection to accommodate all tastes, the fish is fantastic so too is the meat. The Sea Grape is the main restaurant and has the widest selection of food. Gauguin is open for lunch and supper and each group of diners is on a secluded table under an individual sunshade. It is very romantic but given the excellent sea views is in my opinion best for lunch. The Bare Foot Grill is open for lunch and offers a relaxed alternative to more formal dining. Ismays requires an extra charge but is definitely a step up in terms of dining experience including amuse bouches etc. The bars were all excellent and offer a great selection of cocktails and all the big brand names (Bombay Sapphhire and Tanqueray gins both available). The cocktails are superb. All the staff are very friendly and a good level of service. We did not see anyone tipping and there was definitely no expectation of tips. I highly recommend Galley Bay.
