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

My wife and i spent the week over the 2012 New Year's holiday at Galley Bay. Galley bay is a small, private "all inclusive" "adults only" resort with a secluded beach. The facilities, staff and amenities were awesome. We particularly enjoyed the "made to order" meals vs. the typical buffet style we have found at similar resorts. The food selection... More

My wife and I stayed at Galley Bay for 7 days to elope and get married in June 2009. The resort is located approximately 20 minutes from the airport, which is always nice after traveling all day. We were warmly greeted with a rum punch and quickly escorted to our rooms after getting a brief tour. We have traveled to... More

We arrived in the early evening and received a fine welcome with cold towels and rum punch. We checked in and were transported to our cottage by buggy with a little tour on the way. Everything in place in the cottages - one main bedroom (complete with Christmas tree) and bathroom dressing room. Very secluded and overlooking the lake. Weather... More

Our 12th consecutive annual trip to GB re confirmed their ongoing focus on listening to their clients and reacting to practicable suggestions for improvements. The lush gardens and the Bird Sanctuary continue to provide an oasis of tranquility in this fevered world, the beach is to die for, sure the surf can be daunting some times [ 3 days out... More

Our Galley Bay stay was wonderful. I think of it often with longing to return; it may be one of the best vacation spots I have ever stayed. Pros: The resort is small, so you feel pampered. All meals are ala carte, no buffets. In a week, I didn’t get bored with the food. A lot of privacy in the... More

We stayed at Galley Bay for 9 days over New Year 2012. We stayed in a Premium Beachfront villa and paid around US$3,500 per person plus flights. Pros - Great, quiet, sunny, sandy beach with turquoise water. We hired a car and went all the way around Antigua and did not see a nicer beach (especially when compared to Dickenson... More

Without a doubt the best holiday experience ever! We requested that we did not receive any upgrade and stayed in a cottage, this is something that we will always request as you get you own piece of privacy with you very own splash pool. The food was perfect, All inclusive and you always order a la carte, So much choice... More

We had a great trip to Galley Bay. We were a family group of 6, and between us had one Premium Beachfront Suite and two Gaugin cottages. The Premium beachfront rooms are lovely - fantastic view of the ocean from the balcony (even in stormy weather!), large split bedroom/sitting room and enormous bathroom. These rooms also have wifi. The Gaugin... More
