My husband and I just returned from a 7-day break at the Galley Bay and we loved it. The setting is just like paradise. With a better service, it could just be heaven on earth ! The room : We stayed in a superior beachfront room (the cheapest) which was perfectly located on the beachfront but very dated. If you... more

I agree with the previous posters about their experiences with Galley Bay. My sister and I were there with my parents in May. As I further reflect on our stay, the services were not up to the standard of a five star resort. Food was just ok and there was never consistency with whether you would get a decent drink.... more

This has been definitely the best holiday we ever had, even if all the other ones have been marvellous as well. We have been there for 2 weeks in a beachfront appartement and could have stayed longer if it would have been possible on our side. Great location, fantastic beach, lovely staff etc.. Just looking forward to come back some... more

My wife and I returned from Galley Bay (GB) yesterday having spent two weeks there. We had a fantastic time and really love the place and its staff who - in the main - are as friendly as they come. To put this review into perspective - this was our 15th trip to the Caribbean, 4th to Antigua, and 2nd... more

My husband and I just got back from Galley Bay today, and I have to say how very disappointed we were. We arrived there on the 26th November for 10 nights. The setting was fabuous and the staff were welcoming. We were shown around the resort before we were taken to our room. We booked one of the Premier suites... more

Booked with Virgin Atlantic. Bought the Premier Suite with direct access to the beach. Best rooms they have. Beautiful place. Shame about the service.

We booked the divine Galley Bay for our second wedding anniversary after spending many evenings trawling the Virgin brochure trying to find somewhere as perfect as the resort we married in in St Lucia. Our remit was relatively simple: no kids, no forced 'fun'actvities, not too many rooms and plenty of scope for romance! Galley Bay really delivered on all... more

We have just got back from 10 days at Galley Bay. First I would say that we had one of our best vacations. Positives -- Wonderful weather -- 30 C most days -- Great location -- we had a deluxe beachfront room right on the beach with a great view over the sea -- Super beach -- very quiet and... more

My wife and I spent a couple of nights at the Galley in Nov 2008. Before I get on with the review, American tourists who need cell phone access should be aware that Verizon phones will not work in Antigua. Before we left we contacted Verizon and we had to rent a special global phone (which is not cheap) from... more

Hotel *** Galley Bay is set on the beach with individual units of 2-4 rooms and a set of small cottages. The main bar (the “TeePee Bar”) and restaurant (the “Sea Grape”) are in the center of the 40 acre complex, offering open air dining and drinks with great views of the ocean and beachfront. The setting is Caribbean casual,... more
