This is a very service oriented resort with a great (and large!) staff. The waiters and waitresses at the restaurants are very welcoming and provide good service the majority of the time. The food is very good and plentiful - you order whatever and as much as you want off the menu. If you are looking for a "foodie" paradise... More

We have just recently returned from our second visit at Galley Bay, and experienced another great week. We again stayed in a premium beachfront room, on the second floor, which we especially like, with the high ceiling and no one above us. The proximity of the beautiful beach , and the fact that the beach chairs were right outside the... More

I had been booked in a cottage, no doubt because there were such few guests, but upon arrival (and since I was traveling solo) I requested a beach room, I was immediately accommodated; a + for Galley Bay. The room was fine with coffee maker/frig. and right on the beach. Food was ok, typical all inclusive, my only disappointment was... More

My adult daughter and I stayed for the week leading up to Christmas 2011. We wanted a good rest, tennis and water sports. The rest part was possible but the red flag you read about in most reviews was up all week...dangerous conditions as beach is very rough and rocks hide just off shore. I was told by an island...

Let me preface this by saying I like Galley Bay. My comments are for hoped for improvements. We have been here several times and will probably return again. OK, the good is the new burger hut near the beach, the staff continue to be very nice and friendly and it is a quiet and very relaxing place to stay. The... More

I went to Galley Bay for my 10th anniversary. I was told by several friends that it was 'nice'. NICE? It is absolutely wonderful! I came home so relaxed and recharged, I could not believe it. The people, beach, food, service, rooms, everything was glorious. OK, so there were some waves during high tide and a few mosquito bites were... More

The beach was perfect as was the view. We stayed at a cottage beach front deluxe room. There was a band every evening, crocket, tennis, and theorteically water sports. Food in general of good quality some times excellent. The service was all in all very good with a few exceptions. The hiccups were that we slept with the window open... More

This was our second time staying at Galley Bay and it was as good as we remembered it! After trying several other resorts in the Caribbean it remains our favorite place to stay. I agree with what was said in other reviews: the accomodations, food, drinks and staff are great. Galley Bay is special because they have maintained their dress... More

This is our second trip to Antigua. Galley Bay is a great place to stay. The gardens are spectacular, the beach is fabulous, the food is excellent, and the service is second to none. We stayed in a renovated premium beach front suite on the Gaugin side. Having the bar next to us was great! We enjoyed all three restaurants... More
