My personal experience was bad. The service and staff are great but the general manager Andrew Headley is horrible. I broke my hand the second night at the resort. The bathroom fixture under the sink came undone and it flooded the bathroom cause me to fall and break my hand in two areas. The hotel came and fixed it but the second night it leaked again causing them to use a glue that made the room smell toxic. When I got back to New York, I immediately went to the hospital to get my hand treated . When I called the above-mentioned manager to advise to has ignored all my calls and e-mails. I was in a case for a month and a splint for 2 months. The bathe rooms are poorly designed and I hope Some one does not get seriously injured. Most disturbing is that the hotel ignored me when I returned home.

We stayed for 10 days so a few pros & cons below- Pros: Beautiful location & an upgraded suite (clean with water coming daily) Prickly pear - stunning Dinner such as the lobster salad & tuna special were delicious Shawn & Tango helpful lovely guys Cons: A rat in our bedroom (the maintenance guy moved us immediately and was helpful) A surprise charge of 300 USD added to our bill at check out (other guests enjoying free handouts at other rooms expense) Marvin at the pool bar- extremely rude & needs training on how to talk to guests - had my daughter in tears Hotel is rundown in some areas Loud guests playing music at the hot tub smoking weed Food is limited with only one restaurant open (menu wasn’t extensive either) Receptionists - couldn’t do basic tasks like finding us a taxi driver who could give us a tour (we found our own using trip advisor) Service is painfully slow especially at breakfast where they have more interest in clearing/setting up tables than serving Would we come again, no.. but thank you Hodges Bay for a few good days

Visited on a day pass before a night flight. $80 USD gets you pool and beach access , and spa quality changing facilities with toiletries. Would return and stay over night as looks like a great hotel. Food and drinks , and service , from the pool bar and all front desk staff were excellent. It looks like there is a speedboat to the island but we didn’t try it.

This hotel should be rated higher. Yes, some reviews here are true — the shower takes some time to heat up, and there’s some rusty spots in random parts of the hotel. But that’s so small in comparison to the good parts. Like, there’s a tiny boat that transports guests all day to a small private island called Prickly Pear, which truly puts you in paradise. And a heated infinity pool at night. And high quality tennis courts. Solid gym. Great breakfast. Great cocktails. And a beautiful, relaxing nighttime setting with tiki torches set up all around the hotel grounds to ward off mosquitoes. The prices are reasonable for rooms, drinks etc. Ultimately, I’d stay here again and recommend to friends.

We have visited Antigua for the first time staying in the Hodges Bay Resort 11-16 November 2023. Lack of management reflecting to service, to the breakfast quality and to the house keeping. We had issues with towels and sheets several times. There are good people working here but it's the management I think. They did not charge the extras because we had so many inconvenience during our stay in the hotel. I thank for that. Nevertheless, I would like to quickly mention some details. During our stay we had so many troubles and we waited for a fix for longer hours then promised. That is very tiring. We're here to get some rest and only occupied with hotel problems. There was only hot water coming out from shower, they fixed this the last day. The house keeping gave us towels with full make up releases, blood etc. and sheets with previous guests salivas. We got sick because of that hot water and dirty pillows/towels. I talked with house keeping managers. I pointed out the issues. They were very sweet and asked me if I need anything else. I said thank you and asked for extra water. They said of course and then nobody shows up. Why do you ask then? The first day we had the chance of having fresh pineapples and bananas in breakfast and then next days nothing tasty came. The food seems like redundant of previous days. The quality of breakfast decay each day. Last day, before checking out I've told that to the restaurant f&b. There is banana French toast in the menu but no bananas; how come? She told me there is a supply problem and wanted to prepare me banana toast with banana asking the room number. This attempt was also empty, they never show up. In general, when we ask for a thing either nobody shows up or you have to double ask, double check and wait for hours. Forget about having plans when staying in this hotel. Someone attends to your needs after you are completely exhausted. We are plainly unsatisfied with its service. The staff is doing best they can but there is miscommunication and It's not enough when they lack the resources, to make a guest feel like in a 4 star hotel. I would like to thank Vera for being proactive about our needs and asking how we are every morning sincerely.

This resort is perfect for so many occasions, but especially celebrations. The design feels new and modern, and everything from the artwork to the layout of the property exudes cool.

I stopped here in a day pass whilst waiting between flights. The hotel is well located, but the staff could not be more disinterested. They were bemoaning everything. No chance of a smile. At lunch we ordered two overpriced burgers. The fries were stone cold, so having waited to have them changed no one returned to the restaurant so we are the burger, left enough cash and left. I would seriously urge the management to inspire their team some how as they are really letting you down.

For the record, I was not sleeping there, just a day pass. The resort itself is spectacular, well maintained, super clean, quite frankly stunning. However I have never seen worse service at a resort ever. Bartenders on their phones and chit chatting in the far corner away from the guests instead of pouring drinks. The cake topper for me was ordering food. We ordered from a good menu but when the food was ready we were asked to go pick it up ourselves. We asked if the food could delivered to the bar area where our group and was told no. We had to go back to the main building grab the food and bring it down ourselves. I know it's not the end of the world but would have expected more.

I stayed here on my trip to Antigua and it was very nice. The rooms had very nice amenities within them and the resort itself is quick large. There are 2 pools and a waterside jacuzzi. There is a private beach and island you can boat over to. The food at the two restaurants are prepared fresh and very good. I will say the service there is fairly slow. I had one incident while at the resort but the manager was kind enough to explain the confusion and apologize. Hodges Bay was a tremendous stay, I really did enjoy it and would go back.

Beware! Cancelled our reservation for which we had received a reservation number, as well as an email from their reservations department confirming they were expecting us. Reason given for their cancellation: "there are no rooms available." Perhaps they had another party that wanted to stay longer and so they gave our room away. Hard to say, and they wouldn't clarify.

Beautiful resort from the outside, spectacular entrance and pool area. The 2 pools: 1 for kids and 1 for adult near the beach and a bar. The beach is super nice. The rooms are ok they need a little touch up. There s rust on the cupboards, draws don’t close properly, vent in the bathroom is super loud. Amenities are poor for a 5*. Beds are comfy that’s a plus. Food at the restaurant wasn’t great, didn’t feel fresh but reheated. Breakfast was ok. The overall decor and furniture is nice and the staff is friendly. However upon check in I wasn’t explained anything about the hotel, restaurants, times for breakie or lunch and dinner. The second day was better with friendly staff helping me around. The spa was super nice. Reception staff was helpful and I got to have my room till 4pm on my last day. Overall a good stay but a little overpriced for the quality of rooms and food.

The ambience was lovely....I was amazed at the under road walk to the restaurant. I wanted more food though..*covers face*

Hodges Bay Resort and Spa Antigua is a must visit.  The smiles, the food, the ambiance, melts my heart.  Overwhelming kindness, superior customer service,  succulent and mouthwatering cuisine,  The art, the beach, the people.  Hodges Bay Resort and Spa Antigua is a must stay.-KimG

We were lucky to get an upgraded studio room for 6 nights. The room was very spacious and the bed was really comfy with a great view. Breakfast was really good, the pool/beach/private island were all perfect - so beautiful and always space to lay. The gym had lots of equipment and always empty. Drink on arrival was a nice treat. Most of the staff were really friendly We just felt that some of the basics were not in place, especially for a 5 star hotel… some days there were no pool towels until 11-12pm. We had to keep asking for more shampoo/shower gel, it was not automatically replaced when we ran out. Same with water in the room, sometimes they left it, sometimes they didn’t. We only had one sunlounger on our balcony (for a suite for 4 people) and it was filthy Our A/C broke on the last night and reception couldn’t find the maintenance man so they gave us a fan instead which wasn’t suitable in the heat. They had no local beers! They said stock was coming but nothing arrived over the 6 days we were there. It’s a shame to come all the way to the Caribbean and have to drink Coors Light… Little Kids were in the adult pool and hot tub If you order a canned drink from the bar, sometimes they gave us just a glass full, other times they gave us the full glass and the rest of the can, both cost the same. We also had a strange experience at check in, I wanted to pay with American Express but the card kept erroring - when I spoke to American Express they said the pin had been entered in wrong twice, the person taking payment must have done this as I never had the option to put in my pin. I was asked to pay with an alternative card. For anyone new to the island like us, the location is a little windy but this was refreshing There are some nice restaurants 5-15min drive away (would recommend getting a car, we hired one from drive-a-matic)

Room had almost no furnishings and a leaking sink. The pull out sofa collapsed when one slim adult sat on it....and they said "we will get to it in the morning " Where will this person sleep tonight?! No response. For the price the rooms are sub par. Nice pools. Friendly staff overall. But management is poor...made so many promises and did not deliver.

This place is spectacular! Service and staff is amazing! Access to private island (Prickly Pear). Underrated… should be a 5 star! No need to travel further into the island for a 5star view and service.

Resort restaurant has an amazing view and the food and drink selection is amazing. Workers are very courteous.

Probably one of the best resorts on the island if you're looking for somewhere that's not crowded. I would recommend eating outside the resort because the restaurant there is quite expensive. Le bistro is only a short walk away and is a great option. If you go you must go out to their island and bring scuba gear because there are many amazing reefs just off shore.

Just book it! Beautiful property with its own Private Island to visit. Ideal location and close to the airport. Good food, great service, great staff and beautiful room! Oh and the Children's Club was sooo good to my daughter- she loved it and even requested to go back the next day.

The staff and service at Hodges Bay is 5 star. This hotel is Beautiful!!!! inside and out...

We stayed here for 5 days and the service, staff and resort was amazing!! We stayed in one of the Oceanview villas and it was everything 🙌🏽💕. Housekeeping did a job with cleaning our room, keeping the fridge stocked with beverages and towels. We booked the spa 🧘🏽‍♀️👳🏽‍♀️! Will definitely be back but without the kids. 😂

Rooms are not clean and smell of humidity. The location is beautiful, the hotel is okay, service is very poor, slow and not a 5 star, they do not know what a Espresso is, food is served late and cold. For 475€ a night you can find very good hotels elsewhere, do not go.

Nice place. However, overpriced room rates. Restaurant gave small portions for main course, no table bread or items to snack on while waiting and frankly left hungry.. the food was good quality but way too small of a portion.

A really well rounded and nice hotel. Great experience and wonderful views. The food was excellent and you must ask for the focaccia! Easy 5 stars Room was well-maintained, clean, comfortable beds, and pools! This is the best hotel on the island of Antigua. It is captivating and relaxing.

Gorgeous resort. The food was great but the menu was very limited. Our waitress was very kind and professional. The wait time for our meal was fast. It was my friend’s birthday and to have a surprise of a cake for my friend was actually very thoughtful of the waitress. We sat by the water so that we could enjoy the calm scenery.

I had a great stay at Hodges Bay. The property is beautiful and well maintained; especially the landscaping. Dee Dee does a fabulous job with the plants and flowers. The restaurant and bar staff are friendly, helpful and always have a smile on their face. I enjoyed meeting Mrs. Evans who assured that I had everything I needed. The front office, especially Jean-Marie, Coniah and Cleezy, were very pleasant and helpful! I shared that I was celebrating my birthday and Jean-Marie made sure to send a special birthday plate of treats to my room! I would recommend Hodges Bay to my friends. I'd love to see a more diverse representation of tourists and travelers on the social media pages. The current content does not fully display the diversity and beauty of visitors and guests at Hodges Bay.
