Pleasantly surprised
Traveler Review By: John F from new York
Date of Visit: July 2008

We had stayed at another Sandals previously and enjoyed it, so we were looking to return to a Sandals property. Two days before we left we found this site and the many unfavorable reviews. Ugh!We went to this Sandals with much fear and trepidation.

I'm happy to report that Sandals Grande Antigua has gotten its act together and we had a wonderful stay. The entire staff was courteous, friendly and welcoming. We had no trouble checking in, beach towels were plentiful and we had no difficulty booking restaurants. The resort overall is breathtakingly beautiful. I suspect many of the problems sited in previous reviews were growing pains as the resort just opened a huge, new spectacular section about six months ago. I also heard that a new, seasoned manager was brought in four months ago and he's obviously made a huge, positive impact. The beach was lovely and there was just enough evening activity (live, outdoor music etc.)

We went to Bermuda last year. While it too was lovely, the value of a Sandals can't be beat. In Bermuda, we found that our hands were always in our pocket ($15 drinks, $62 veal chops)

The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the food. It was always good and plentiful, but never oh-my-god-great. Still, I can highly recommend Sandals Grande Antigua as a great destination.
