Residences at Nonsuch Bay Antigua - Room Only - Self Catering

Resort

Great place for a holiday. Astounding views and super hospitable staff. The breakfast and dinners here were really yummy and unique. The hotel also has a ton of activities and a great kids club. Would highly recommend.

Free sailing facilities and lovely food! An overall great resort.

Really lovely hotel & for the most part some great staff. Some of the bar staff are lots of fun also. Beautiful views & while it has only 1 restaurant, this actually works in its favour as it makes it more intimate & warm. Downsides: it's in the middle of nowhere & the costs of getting about the island are very very high — in general $70 return per trip! That's a major downside for me because I like to explore. They should offer free & regular shuttle buses if nothing can be done about the cost of taxis. We hired a car which wasn't cheap either but was more fun & affordable. The other downside is the lack of a gym or spa, though I believe that this might be their next phase of development. Also, the bar closes at 11pm, which can be a bit annoying on the odd night you want to stay up. One last issue was the lack of service by the 2 pools. However there was service on the beach & it turned out that was the best place to lay out during the day. I would happily recommend this hotel. The food is good (not always amazing at breakfast & lunch but still very good & generally dinner was of a high standard). If you want relaxation by the sea, in a clean, friendly, relaxing environment then it's great. The water sports also looked like a major perk if you're into that, but I'm not so I couldn't say for sure. If it had a gym & spa I would probably give it 5 stars despite transport issues.

Not the best day today but made up by the nice people. It is January so can't complain. Everything here is great. Even in the rain.

Fantastic rustic place although the accommodation isn't rustic but the facility are nice a rustic. Staff all very friendly and willing to help and look after you. Food is excellent. There is only one bar and one restaurant but very good. My only downside comment would be is that the bar actually shuts at 11pm which for a hotel isn't idea as residents normally get to drink as long as they like in other hotels. Maybe it's because it's an all inclusive they do this. Which is a shame as I wouldn't say they are overwhelmed with guests drinking non-stop. The bay is a delight to see. It's kept and maintained very well so a thumbs up to all the staff and management here. Not seen any other resort on the island so can't make the true comparison but speaking to others that have been to the island before stay they all have there plus points and this one has many and good value for money. All in all a great place to visit. Don't forget to visit Shirley heights on Sunday at 4pm to watch the sunset and the steel bands playing. Plus the British harbour which is our next visit. These are about 30 minutes from 'no such place' as I keep calling nonsuch bay. BTW internet works very well here and I think that is a very important service especially for anyone that runs a business and still needs to be in touch and it is of course free of charge.

Nice place staff very good, water sports snorkeling, sailing, all available.

Amazing hotel resort the staff are really friendly and if you wanna make friends I'd suggest going here!

The quality of food wasn't that good, my shower head in the shower wasn't good for use didn't spray out much, also seen a few huge cockerroaches and one smaller one was also in my handle bag when I was leaving very gross. The washer I used was spinning for a few hours. The TV didn't work the whole time was frozen. The Wi-Fi was on and off. Management made me feel uncomfortable about my clothing when going to breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I have witness other people with similar clothing to mine receive no complaints. The last day 10/09/2017 morning the water in my suite wasn't working at all I wasn't even able bathe before going to the airport. I called about the water condition if they bring some water to my room no call returned. The dining room chairs seem like it had small mold spots on them. This stay for for the celebration of my birthday I paid over 3, 000$ and I definitely don't feel like my money was well spent. Another than that Staff was very nice!

Absolutely fantastic time had by us all, can't fault anything, accommodation, food, service and most of all the wonderful staff were terrific, they really are superb, lovely people. Hope to come back again. All the best the Mackenzie family inc. Harrison.

Best vacation I've ever had. Came here to get married and stay for 10 days. The wedding coordinators at the resort take care of everything which was exactly what we were looking for. Staff is super friendly and made you feel welcome, even the maintenance crew was friendly and engaging. The kids club is phenomenal. Our daughter requested to go everyday. They have events for the kids daily, over 5 years old get to learn to sail, kayak bc and snorkel in the bay with a kids club Instructor. Under 5 they go to the pools, beaches, feed fish in the marina area. At 5 pm they do dinner and a movie nightly. Parents get to enjoy a vacation with your kids! The all inclusive was not cheesy party style, more classy with only 1 bar and a beach attendant. The restaurant has good food and lunch and dinner are by reservation. It's laid back if you don't make your time slot. The reservations are more for crowd control since there is only one restaurant. The sailing lessons, snorkeling, and sea kayaks are part of the all inclusive. All of the instructors are fantastic. Most have close to 20 years of sailing experience. The room is beautiful. Water is drinkable with a filter in the fridge. Kitchen has fridge, dishwasher, microwave, cook top, and all dishes and cups. Coffee and tea makers. Laundry in each unit. Jacuzzi bath tub and shower. A/c. 110v outlets. By far this is the best vacation we have been on. I will be back.

Great staff. Very friendly and polite. Chilled vibe. Next to beach. Good food. Good weather.

Amazing place, great service. Highly recommended for kitesurfing (Green Island is nothing short of perfect), steady wind and great rental. Sailing, wake boarding, water skiing — you name it.

The most interesting getaway you can have. Excellent sunrise views, one of the best chef means excellent food at this resort. Great atmosphere with unpolluted fresh air. A must see!

All I have to say is that the beach is NOT man made. They may have moved or added a little bit of sand. I lived around the bay and walked along the coast to the beautiful beach as a child. Until they ruined it of course. The developers were also very rude and constantly tried to get us to sell the land to them. Also Mike is mad, East coast is much cooler with the atlantic wind. Each side has it's pros and cons.

This resort, located on Antigua's rugged East Coast, was exactly what we wanted: great food, splendid room, terrific staff and lots of sea, salt and sailing. The resort was first class in every way that was important to us: lots of boats — all in good repair, capable instructors, beautiful harbour to sail across and a stellar view from the restaurant as we enjoyed a gourmet meal each night. Many of the guests were returning for a second or third time.

Mike below is mad! This resort is amazing. We've been twice in 6 months and are going again in July. The staff are wonderful and so attentive. The beach (like a lot of beaches in Antigua) is man made in the sense that they've added sand to it to make it wider. Unlike most resorts they've created a buffer to stop the seaweed which is plaguing the Caribbean. The accommodation is beautiful and huge and your apartment is cleaned daily for over an hour. The kids club is the best I've ever used. If you want a tacky resort with jet skis galore roaring around and endangering your kids and peace and quiet then don't stay here. The fact that we have met people on their 6th and 7th time at Nonsuch says a lot. It's paradise with a good price tag.

Do not stay here. I want to start off that this is the first time that I am writing a review. This place was so bad that I just could not resist as I do not want anyone else experiencing what I had to. I travel the world and been to all the islands and love Antigua. The place however put a big dent in our enjoyment. First off its in the worst location of Antigua (the East side). Its a man made beach that looks horrible. The west side of Antigua like jolly harbor is the way nicer part. The staff was extremely rude. W had a black out daily since this place is from the hood. The staff all left when it was pitch black and couldn't even wait to see if we would get the electric back, bottom line is you could put lipstick on a pig but will always be a pig. Trust me stay somewhere else.

Great place to go for dinner if you are sailing. Someone was waiting for us a the dock when we arrived. The restaurant is fancy and the food is good. The place is isolated in a bay which makes it very relaxing.

Excellent luxury resort on a beautiful bay. They have a well-maintained fleet of sailboats at their waterfront center.
