Second excellent stay at Blue Waters
Our family of four has just returned from a wonderful holiday at Blue Waters, Antigua, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. This was our second stay at the resort, having last visited eight years ago, and it was every bit as special as we remembered.
We've been fortunate enough to stay at many resorts across the Caribbean, but what continues to set Blue Waters apart is its attention to the little details that make such a big difference. From the moment you arrive, you're made to feel genuinely welcome. Check-in is seamless, with a refreshing welcome drink and cooling towel, setting the tone for a truly relaxing stay.
The service throughout the resort is exceptional. We experienced a minor issue with the air conditioning in one of our rooms, but it was dealt with quickly, professionally and calmly by Kevin, which perfectly reflects the way the resort is managed. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble.
The staff are undoubtedly Blue Waters' greatest asset. Everyone greets you with a smile and goes out of their way to ensure you have the best possible holiday. We'd particularly like to thank Derah, who was absolutely wonderful, along with Shennelle, Erol, Javier and Sharon. Their warmth, friendliness and genuine desire to help made our stay even more memorable.
The food throughout the resort was consistently excellent, with plenty of choice and a very high standard. A special mention has to go to The Cove, which was outstanding. The setting is spectacular, the atmosphere is relaxed yet elegant, and every meal we enjoyed there was beautifully prepared and presented. It genuinely rivals many standalone fine dining restaurants and was one of the highlights of our stay.
It was also lovely to see Kevin again after all these years. He is an excellent General Manager who clearly leads by example, and Nicole was fantastic, helping us arrange both our car hire and an unforgettable boat trip to Bird Island, which is an absolute must if you're staying at the hotel.
Blue Waters is certainly a premium resort, but you genuinely get what you pay for. The beautiful grounds, stunning beaches, exceptional food, attentive service and peaceful atmosphere make it worth every penny.
A huge thank you to everyone at Blue Waters for making our holiday so special. We left with wonderful memories and can't wait to return.

Great time in turtle cottage thank you Nicole
We stayed at the turtle cottage and were taken care of by Nicole. She was excellent booked our restaurants activities and transfers. The villa was amazing and we had a blast.
Relaxing, luxury holiday
The resort is handy for the airport but we never heard or saw a plane while there, and handy for St Johns for shopping. Our room in Cove suites was large, comfortable, and well appointed. The pool shared by seven rooms in the Cove building was a nice secluded area to get away from the main beach and other pools. Service was excellent throughout - everyone engaged with us. Special thanks to Kina in the Palm restaurant, and Monique looking after the rooms, who both went over and above expectations. All three restaurants were great with lots of choice. Our only complaint was the spa which felt expensive for what we got.

A stay worth every penny
We loved the serenity and service of this resort. I recommend splurging for a room in the Cove…great bar/food service and each villa has its own infinity pool. The sunset views are to die for. Food was amazing. Make your reservations quickly upon arrival and don’t miss a chance to eat at that the Cove at least once.
Paradise Found
Blue Waters is a wonderful place. Heaven on Earth. It welcomes you in and wraps you up like a warm blanket. This is almost entirely due to the wonderful staff, who all seem to know your name as soon as you arrive. How do they do that? Where else in the world would you find a general manager who greets every guest personally every day? Nothing is too much trouble and service always comes with a smile. The beautiful gardens are lovingly intended by John and his team and the colours seem to be exceptionally stunning at this time of year. It’s as though you’re holidaying in a tropical garden. Food in all the restaurants is first class. Something that’s often overlooked but definitely worthy of a mention is the home made rum and raisin ice cream. It’s packed with rum and in fact is now our favourite dessert except perhaps for Chocoholic in The Cove Restaurant. The Palm is our favourite spot for breakfast anywhere in the world. We’ve stayed in several types of room now and could recommend any of them so just choose something that suits your budget. For a touch of exclusivity try the Cove Suites and for a stunning sea view the beachfront rooms in block 1 are fab. We’ve travelled about quite a lot but Blue Waters is the only place we return to again and again. It’s home now. PS It’s also an amazing place for a wedding or special celebration. Mandie, the wedding coordinator, has years of experience and can arrange a magical day, even at short notice!
