I don't really know what to say after so many good things have been written about Galley Bay. I have just returned from there last week and can honestly say we had an absolutely fantastic time. From the moment we arrived till the moment we left we were treated so well. The staff at Galley Bay are second to none,... More

Perfect piece of paradise. We stayed for honeymoon and booked a beachfront room. Fantastic room right on the beach, so you could cool down in an instant in the blue Caribbean Sea, or just pop into the air conditioned pool at your ease. We felt this location was ideal for honeymoon, we felt very private and were very much allowed... More

I was here back in 2008 and five years later I can say that the service is still great. From our experience when checking in, to the friendly porter who carried us to our room, we would give the service 5/5. The food was good at the 3 restaurants we dined at. The restaurant staff really enjoy their jobs and... More

We are just back from this wonderful hotel after our 10th stay. Needless to say we return year on year because this place is truly special with a capital "S". From the gardening staff to housekeepers, waiting staff ,management et al, everyone goes the extra mile to make your stay here as special as it can be. We got married... More

My partner took me away to Antigua to celebrate a rather large birthday recently. We traveled around all over the place, but Galley Bay was definitely the best beach we came across. The water was clear, and the surroundings were out of this world. There were small concessions along the beach if you wanted to buy trinkets /gifts to take... More

Wow, what an incredible place to stay! I have to say that overall, this was one of the best vacations we've ever been on. If you want a place that is all inclusive but small enough to be a boutique hotel, you've found it! Beach: Stunning. The sand is white and powdery. We didn't have any rough surf days at... More

Our second visit here- this time we brought some friends. The place is as beautiful as ever and they made several really nice improvements since our last visit. They added a great beach snack shack where you can grab a burger or a cuban or grilled fish while in your bathing trunks from noon till 4 which avoids the formality... More

We went to Galley Bay for 10 days for our daughter's wedding (which was the only one while we were there-no production line!), we had a lovely stay & were made to feel special. The resort is very spacious with 40 acres of superb tropical gardens. It never felt busy despite being full-always sunbeds available on the beach & round... More

We have just spent another great two weeks at this lovely resort. From the moment you arrive you are welomed " back home". Nothing is too much trouble for any of the wonderful staff,whatever you want they will do their best to get it for you. We decided to do the garden walk around the grounds of the hotel again... More

It does not seem possible to edit or update an existing review, and so we are writing this as an update. The management at Galley Bay saw my wife's assessment and have responded extremely rapidly to help address the issues we had faced, in a very impressive manner, providing all the necessary care and attention for her dietary requirements.
