Hawksbill - Adults Only

If your looking a laid back Caribbean stay in Antigua look no further than the Hawksbill Resort with its stunning beaches and great food in the restaurants. Our garden bungalow with a sea view was dated but spotless, top class air condition, T.V. and mini bar restocked daily. Staff in the bars, restaurants and housekeeping all excellent and genuinely friendly ,some of the best ever. Mostly used the buffet at nights and the a la carte a few times but the highlight was P D,s The Great House. Its small and needs to be booked but the grilled food is delicious and built right on the waters edge for picturesque photo opportunities. Loved to relax on one of the four beaches during the day taking advantage of the all inclusive drinks followed by a tasty meal in the evening and the entertainment. Guests can book trips outside the buffet restaurant which we did three, Shirley Heights, Stingray City and Wadadli Cats. Thank you Hawksbill Resort for an unforgettable experience.

We had a lovely stay at Hawksbill Resort. The location is absolutely perfect – quiet, peaceful and surrounded by idyllic beaches. If you're looking for a relaxed, low-key Caribbean escape rather than a busy, lively resort, this is an excellent choice. The entertainment is understated, which suited us perfectly.

The hotel itself is a little dated and looking tired in places, with some areas feeling a bit crumbly. Our room was basic but comfortable. The bathroom had chipped tiles and was old-fashioned, but there was always plenty of hot water, the air conditioning worked brilliantly, the fridge was well stocked, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. Being so close to the sea was a real bonus. Housekeeping occasionally forgot to leave clean towels, but overall we felt the accommodation reflected the budget-friendly price and we were perfectly happy with it.

The food was generally very good. Lunch choices were a little limited, but everything we tried was tasty. Dinner offered much more variety, and the themed evenings were particularly enjoyable. The food could have been hotter at times, although that's fairly common with buffet dining. The restaurant staff were attentive and welcoming.

The drinks were excellent, especially the freshly made cocktails, and the bar staff were always friendly.

Overall, Hawksbill offers fantastic value for money. Its stunning setting, beautiful beaches and relaxed atmosphere far outweigh the hotel's dated appearance. We'd happily return.

Stayed for a week seemed like just the perfect amount of time spent at the resort possibly could've stayed longer. All of the bartenders and staff were very pleasant. If you get a chance to go on the Hobie Cat with Gerald it's a great experience. The pool was very beautiful and relaxing never had an issue finding a place to sit. We took the kayaks out and that was a fun time. We also went out on the jet skis and that was a fun experience. The transfer from airport to the resort is provided to you free of charge. If you are booking directly with the resort that was a big plus. Overall, a great experience if you're looking for a laid-back atmosphere if you're looking for a place to party party party loud music and a bunch of young people this isn't it, but it is a very relaxing resort. Low key!
