We spent two weeks at Sandals Grande Antigua between 27th April until the 11th of May this year, during which time we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. The resort proved to everything we hoped for, the grounds are beautiful and extensive, the resort is spotlessly clean, the staff we found very friendly, polite and eager to make our holiday one...

My wife and I recently stayed at Sandals Grande Antigua. When we booked, due to our age (retirees), we were slightly concerned that perhaps the resort would cater for more of a younger element; so you can imagine our delight when we arrived to discover that Sandals really does span all age groups. Throughout the holiday we found the staff... More

I was there for my cousins weeding and where a group of about 20. The resorts is really set up for couples and not so much for larger weeding groups. Staff seemed confused at times trying to put 20 seats together let alone 8 for smaller dinners. Understandably this is a couple resort and pretty much has everything set up... More

This was our 5th Sandals trip - we've previously been to Halycon St Lucia, Dunn's River Jamaica and the one that used to be in Varadero Cuba. They're all very different. We spent a lot of time reading through reviews before booking which really helps me so hopefully I can do the same for someone else. Only 20 minute transfer... More

We stayed at the Sandals Grande Antigua from May 9th-16th. Upon arriving at the resort, there was some slight confusion as to where to go to check in as we had to wait for someone to come to us in the lobby. About 15 mins into being there, our butler Julian arrived & gave us a tour of the resort... More

We had our wedding there. The wedding people are great it couldn't have been any better it was perfect. The resort is big. Expect a lot of walking and tired feet. If you like large resorts then you will like it, I prefer a smaller resort. The reviews you read about the horrible food are true. Breakfast is good, lunch... More

Upon checking in, we were handed a glass of champagne and refreshing cold towel, and were quickly checked in our deluxe cottage which was located centrally within the resort in lush gardens, opposite the Caribbean pool. The room itself was a little shabby, certainly not deluxe by any means, with a very poor bathroom and shower. I was expecting much... More
