Everyone was welcoming except the person that checked me in at the front desk. She needs some more customer service training. I especially loved the way the manager at the front desk handled my issue. I also must commend one of the other managers Clinton, both managers were very welcoming and easy to work with. The property do need some renovation. Perks- it’s right on the beach. The food was not always freshly cooked, it gave me a heart burn everyday, needs to be improved. Food was delicious when it was fresh.

I chose Antigua over Curaçao for my vacation based on a great past experience at Jolly Harbour Villas, but sadly, this stay was disappointing. While check-in started off well thanks to one kind staff member, the rest of the front desk team was consistently unhelpful and unfriendly. Our A/C unit broke down on Thursday night—it was loud, leaking, and unusable. Though a technician came, he never returned as promised, leaving us to spend the night with just a ceiling fan and mosquitoes. Despite speaking with the property manager the next morning (who did seem concerned), the staff offered no clear answers or solutions. We were finally told the unit was fixed, but it still didn’t work. Only on Saturday evening—right before checkout—were we offered a room change, which was far too late. For the amount spent, this experience fell far below expectations. I’ve visited several Caribbean islands and never had service this poor. I wouldn’t stay at Jolly Beach again, though I must say the restaurant staff were excellent. I truly wish I had booked another hotel.

Place is in disrepair and no management present. Was not welcomed it’s a smile at all every staff me never aside from 2 was rude and acted inconvenienced when asked any questions. Room was filthy and dated also had mosquitos and roaches. Bathroom was not clean and no housekeeping offered. No electrical outlet in the bathroom forced to use a blow dryer meant for mounting on wall in hand. Had to hold unit up since it was not attached to anything. The food was hit or miss and they offered nothing in between meal times it’s not inclusive it’s “meals included” The facility was open to the public for Mother’s Day brunch they obtained a day pass and used the pool and the food courts and bars caused resort guests to not be able to enjoy or access what they paid a lot for. Store on site has nothing and also closed at 5pm. There was never anyone around to put music on aside from the pool. Towel center closes early can’t return or exchange easily. Music should be everywhere hire an activities director and do things at night. Bartenders were not even personable. Every guest agrees they wouldn’t go back. Only nice part was the beach which is not anything the hotel could improve or control. And the cat who also looked like she was disgusted with the place! Should have offered resort guests alternative since day passes took up the entire facilites

The beach was our saving grace. Its gorgeous. SOME staff were amazing, most were unfriendly. There were roaches in my outdated dirty room. No room service and they claim ots not all inclusive but in fact is "3 meals a day" I personally would not return

Amazing staff! Fantastic beach. Food is ok. The resort itself nice and clean, however rooms are very aged and definitely require renovation. And one more thing. housekeeping and towels changing need to be requested as needed. I find it very strange. Overall we had very good time
