All the reviews you will see on this resort are excellent but it just isn't so. The only thing going for it was (most of) the food at dinner. Breakfast and lunch food was not good at all-- even the most basic things like a hamburger just doesn't taste normal. It is "off" or processed or something. Milk is from a box.

All the reviews you will see on this resort are excellent but it just isn't so. The only thing going for it was (most of) the food at dinner. Breakfast and lunch food was not good at all-- even the most basic things like a hamburger just doesn't taste normal. It is "off" or processed or something. Milk is from a box. The beach is TINY- like it is crazy small. And you cannot see a sunset here which is magical in the Caribbean!- plus it is as far from the airport as you can go-- right near the choppy windy Atlantic Ocean. None of the their 3 small pools are heated which was not ok - but neither are the private plunge pools which was beyond upsetting. If your villa doesnt face the sun (and even if it does) the water will not get warm enough to put a foot in even if it is 80 degrees outside. Thin towels, truly rushed average house keepers that don't vacuum (maybe they broom?) and always forget something important. Here is the issue with service: it is poor. These people are untrained with flat unsmiling faces. They do not like their jobs and it shows. This is not a cheap place! Also, we never left the resort because there is no place to go. If you drink a lot- like you want to start at 10am and go all night- come here. But dont expect much else. You will be sick of seeing the same faces all day long in the restaurant and the beach. Yikes- never again. Read less

I recently stayed at Hammock Bay over two weeks ago and was expecting some follow-up regarding my experience. Since I have not been contacted, I wanted to take a moment to share my feedback directly. While the property itself has potential, I was disappointed to find that the experience did not live up to the advertised five-star standard. Based on my interactions—starting with booking through your exclusive Florida-based service—it was clear that the level of service and amenities did not align with a true five-star experience. A few key concerns from my stay include: Room Expectations: I was initially recommended a room that was ultimately not available. Accuracy in recommendations is crucial. Amenities: There were not enough beach and pool umbrellas to accommodate all guests, which significantly impacted the experience. Service & Hospitality: Some managers displayed unwelcoming attitudes, which is not what guests expect from a high-end resort. A warm, friendly approach makes a huge difference. Cabana Pool Conditions: It was not made clear that these pools are not heated, making them too cold to use. Transparency about this feature would be helpful. Dining Experience: The restaurant menu was limited, uninspiring, and average in quality. More variety and elevated cuisine options would enhance the guest experience. Activities: Despite having the facilities, there was little to no effort to organize or attract pickleball games, which could have been a great addition. While Hammock Bay is a solid four-star property, it currently does not meet the five-star standards it advertises. I hope this feedback is helpful in improving the experience for future guests.

When we arrived, we were treated to cool towels and cold drinks. Once we arrived in our room, we never wanted to leave. The property is beautiful and people who work here are genuinely happy. On the third day, we met the owner who wanted to make sure that we were enjoying our stay. The accommodations are so awesome, you won't need to leave your room if you don't want to. The food is a bit limited, but it's good and well prepared. Since you are on an island, some kinds of fish (ex Salmon), may not be readily available. I would encourage all visitors to take advantage of the island tour. The history and pride the beautiful people take in their home is heartwarming. My husband and I plan to return! Read less

Hammock Cove is truly a 5 Star resort. The villas are exquisite, well stocked with beverages. The villas are large clean and comfortable. The facility is beautiful and the guests are treated by an excellent staff This is our 3rd trip to Hammock Cove . I would like to make a suggestion. That is the circular floats are anchored with in the middle of a small swim area and I stubbed my foot several times on the anchors. If they were anchored from shore with quality nylon roping guests would be able to extend further out and guest wound able to easily locate the tubing . Also, no anchor. I can’t say enough about the excellence of the lighthouse restaurant, 5+ Stars , thank you Chef! This is an excellent resort located on a beautiful Island Read less

We recently stayed at the Hammock Cove in Antigua and had absolutely wonderful vacation. The Villas were very clean and spacious, The entire staff were extremely personable, attentive and eager to help. The food and service at the restaurants were also outstanding. This was one of the best resorts we have been to and would certainly recommend it.
