Antigua recommendations (Antigua Village?)

Can't find a whole lot about Antigua village. One post (in 1997) said
that Antiqua Village had gotten a bit run-down and the beach wasn't
"great".

Current prices for Antigua Village range from $290 to $330 (studio)
per night. Suites from $360. (plus taxes).

What about:

Rex Blue Heron
Siboney Beach club
Hawksbill beach hotel

others?

Fraid I've never hear of it but

Rex Blue Heron
if this is the one we went to (on west coast) a couple of years ago I'd
advise against it! (There are two Rex on Antigua)
Its on a beautiful beach; its small and the rooms are OK, but the food was
dreary and the wine was almost undrinkable. In fact we gave up drinking the
red.

Siboney Beach club
dont know
Hawksbill beach hotel
This looks and sounds great (Kuoni seem to be the only company that use it
from UK); we visited it forlunch on our first trip to Antigua in 1980 and it
looked as good as the brochure then. (we were staying at Half MOnn Bay,
unfortunately damaged in two hurricanes and never re-opened; it was
fantastic and I wont go to Antigua again unless and until it re-opens!)

My husband and I stayed at Hawksbill about 10 years ago. At that time
it was fantastic! Beautiful setting. Lovely accomodations. Super
beaches and snorkeling. I was in tears when it waas time to leave. I
hope to get back there someday.

I stayed there in the late 80's. Casual and the decor depends on the
unit. Great location if you want to be where the action is. I have not
booked a client in there for years.

Ive been to ANtigua 5 times, both for work and pleasure. Avoid all Rex
Resorts. I 110% recommen Bluewaters in Antigua....fabulous staff,
incredible food, gorgeous rooms and just fab.

WWW.bluewaters.net and check out their reviews on tripadvisor. and no, I
dont work for them! (I wish!)
