It was ok stay at the property. The owner is easy going, however, i observed some tension and confusion with a lady who identified herself as the house care taker, not infront of guests please! Property were close to a couple attractions, stingray and turtle city. Very small Island, not much to do.

Loved the location in rural Antigua. Beautiful views. Nice outside area. Only seating for one inside this studio. For transportation you would need a rental or be prepared to walk up the hill for the local bus (no real schedule). A little store and restaurant are nearby. Take the path up the hill just a ways past Stingray city.

Highly recommended
This place is amazing. In the extremely friendly Seatons Village, a minute walk away from Stingray City, a short way from Long Bay and Devil's Bridge, a generally beautiful part of a beautiful island. Chippy gave us some fresh off the tree coconut and papaya, and we used the outdoor grill for a couple of bbqs. A very comfortable studio with everything you need, and a relaxing local atmosphere that is worlds apart from the classic multi-hundred dollar a night all-inclusives that generally mop up the tourists.

I can’t say enough about the owner Chippy. He was warm, welcoming, friendly and generous! Helped me with advice, directions, information and setting up. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else when I come back- it’s a very peaceful and quiet location right on the bay. A car wasn’t needed for me because the bus that takes you to/from the city is a few blocks down for $1. I’m an experienced traveler and I quite enjoyed staying here and away from the touristy more expensive places. It’s not real Antigua. This is........ Everything worked in the cottage just as shown. It was very cozy, comfortable and of course competitively priced! Sad to leave especially when the owner made you feel like family Thanks again

Our host was brilliant! Thank you for being so caring; you really made us feel at home! He offered fishing activities for us, took his time and gave us loads of information about Antigua and even went above and beyond to cook some delicious curry conch and fried fish for us! Highly recommended!

When I came to Antigua, I stayed on the top floor. I love the decor and the friendliness of the host. I was able to get a lot of site seeing done by the nearby Stingray City. The view is just beautiful and the room is very convenient. There is a kitchenette area and even pots, pans, utensils, cutlery, dishes etc. You also don't have to worry about any toiletries because soap and toilet paper were provided. Definitely a convenient and great place to stay.

Clean, functional with a fantastic view of the bay. Local shop and restaurant nearby. What more do you want? Would return again no problem. You’ll need a car I’d say but then best to have one when visiting this island anyway, then you can see it all!

This is a rustic motel style/ hostel style single building with thin walled apartments that separate tenants. It is not near a beach, or near any major tourist attractions. It is quiet and the residential area it is located in is full of polite locals, and their extremely vocal dogs. It is beyond ready for a remodeling, and could benefit from a deep cleaning. Despite all this, the exterior bears and adorable simplistic charm.
