This Antigua resort had a refurb in 2017. Early reports are good with people raving over at trip advisor how good this place is. If you do read between the lines some say the furniture is dated and smaller rooms and beds are issues. they didn't see this spoiling their vacation of course. See below for a link to the reviews. Please let us know how you found the resort.

Editors note: The Jolly Beach Resort has now reopened through Elite Islands chain. Another different owner so it will be interesting to see how the resort is changed and for now please take the following old reviews and information knowing that it is once again all changed! However much of the information will still be relevant. 

The Jolly Beach Resort is perfect for those travellers looking for a good, well-run hotel on the beachfront, without the 5* price tag and trappings. It runs an all inclusive plan that includes watersports food and drinks.

The Hawksbill Resort (by Rex Resorts) is named after one of it's five beaches. You can savour each one if you like, as they are all very good. Currently as other resorts in this price range remain closed this is one of the few remaining 'budget' options. This is perhaps on of the best cheap Antigua resorts and it is an all inclusive too.

The Halcyon is currently being demolished for rebuilding as a Royalton CHIC resort to be ready for November 2023.
