Ocean Point Resort & Spa

Antigua, Caribbean

Virgin rating

The hotel

At times you’ll get the impression you’re in the heart of Italy – at others there’s no denying you’re in the Caribbean. Exclusively for adults, Ocean Point Resort & Spa is a kick-off-your-flip flops fusion of the idyllic Med and the exotic Tropics. From its gardens, where bougainvillea grows among palm trees, to its fabulous Sottovento Beach Club, where chefs will use fresh island produce as you dine just steps from the sea. This may be a far cry from home, with its huge beachfront pool and two seductively sandy coves, but the family owners have created a truly homely space, complete with a resident cat and dog, informal yet comfy guest rooms, and day trips for snorkelling and turtle spotting.

It’s a very laid back place. The staff is their biggest asset. Ocean front is usually the biggest attraction but in this case the ocean takes back seat to the helpfulness, and friendliness of the staff. The ocean water is lovely in patches. The two biggest deficits are the tiny bathroom and shower and the TV situation, which I found bizarre at… Read more

Ocean front is usually the biggest attraction but in this case the ocean takes back seat to the helpfulness, and friendliness of the staff. The ocean water is lovely in patches. The two biggest deficits are the tiny bathroom and shower and the TV situation, which I found bizarre at best, no live news no HBO just google clips. I thought that was extremely cheap Read less

We arrived in the middle of a UN conference some of who being hosted at the Hotel . Pool had limited access for a few hours for 2 days and I had a moan . As holiday went on it became clear that pool isn't used much and we understood why the UN would have brought great business to Hotel . In way of compensation we had a couple of days meal upgrades and an evening Bedroom turn down service . Very much appreciate and food was awesome . The Hotel as most say is very remote .there is a supermarket about half hour walk about a mile . Saw few local people all friendly . We spent first day on beach .think there was 1 other couple there it's clean loads sunbeds . Sea was warm and clear Pool area also very quiet loads sunbeds . Yes few tiles missing here and there ,But who cares . Water was warm and spent hours in there every day . Like the coffee machine in reception works well never a queue . WiFi is a bit hit and miss if lots people using . But usually reconnected quickly . Service is one of best I have had all staff friendly and on second week when season coming to an end got even better . With Mark collecting drink orders round pool. Food I loved it , choices little limited but as it's all great didn't mind repeats . Buffalo wings , chicken wraps and Burgers - Awesome Breakfast had most stuff you could want And specials in evening always nice Service as quick or slow as u wanted to Management / owners always visible and talking working and at times even waiting on tables - big well done Room Big comfy bed / good aircon If grouting quality is your thing u might find some issues but oh well if that's biggest issue Free use safe worked great And a good old fashioned key for door not a card that my phone wipes out We went on a Day trip to pigs paradise that also picked up at Sandals and I think Royalton , they both had great beaches and super modern but looked packed and busy . When we got back to ocean point . Mark in Restaurant called over to ask us if we popping in for lunch and when we had changed we were asked how our trip had been . It's those small details that made coming back to this hotel from the Posh Sandals feel great . Would come back happily only issue . I'll need a diet for 6 months first . Read less
