We just returned from a week\'s vacation at Willoughby Bay and loved every minute of it! The very private, tranquil location of the house away from the hustle and bustle of English Harbor allowed for quiet relaxation on the beautiful balcony overlooking the Bay. No noise except for the sound of wind and waves (and the occasional rain shower - that turned to quite the storm at night). But the house is solid and safe. While the decor of the house may not be able to compete with the sleek, modern interior of neighboring villas, the location cannot be better. After spending the day swimming or exploring the island, we were always glad to return home, kick off our sandals and relax in the cool breeze on the balcony. The house itself is clean and the beds comfortable which is all that mattered to us. We cannot wait to return to this piece of paradise.
Jean and Ralston were amazing! The home is a little dated, but it’s perfect! It fits the culture. You absolutely can not beat the views! Like I said, it’s in a quiet ‘working class’ neighborhood, on the south side of the island. Not in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city. If you’re looking for a great, safe place to chill out and relax, this is your place! We took our two boys with us ( 9 & 11) and they had a blast in the pool! I loved visiting with Ms. Jean and Mr. Ralston, there story will inspire you! They just made you feel at home. Every person / company the recommended was top of the line! Don’t look anywhere else, this is the place you want to be for your relaxing Antiguian vacation!
The villa was everything we hoped for, very peaceful, private and tranquil. The villa was very clean and equipped with everything we needed. The interior of the villa could do with a little updating perhaps, but the view from the balcony was so breathtakingly beautiful. The garden and the pool was gorgeous with plenty of places to sit in the sun but also plenty of shade as well! Jean and Rolston were friendly and approachable, it was so nice to chat with them and learn a little about their lives living in Antigua. The car hire firm that Jean recommended gave great service. Really appreciated the escorted service from the airport when we arrived, as the roads are very dark and the potholes awesome! Hope to return next year.
We had an altogether great holiday on Antigua. Although our inbound flight was delayed we we\'re greeted, as arranged, at the airport by a friendly representative of the car hire company that Willoughby\'s owners had recommended to us. He then drove us to the Willoughby property. His service was most helpful and uncomplicated. Do ask the Michaels for his service. Willoughby is situated directly on the waterfront of a peaceful bay. The views are unspoilt and second to none. The garden has been lovingly kept and offers practical spaces for bbqing, hanging out the laundry, and relaxing in the sun or shade. The pool was lovely! Salt water, no chemicals! There are sun loungers too. There is a constant refreshing breeze which helps keep mosquitoes at bay. Although the temperatures are high we had no need of the AC which is installed in every bedroom. Willoughby is fully furbished and the kitchen is very well stocked. We had everything we needed for our family vacation. There were even some great toys for our toddler and a baby\'s cot. We felt immediately comfortable and at home. Many thanks Michael family for this wonderful home from home. We would certainly book again.
We are just back from a relaxing stay at Willoughby in the Antiguan sunshine. The house is in a perfect location overlooking the ocean, and is a short drive to some lovely restaurants and beaches. Our favourite beach was half moon beach and our favourite restaurant Cloggy\'s in Falmouth harbour. My son, Josh, loved swimming in the pool, and his mum & dad loved having sundowners on the deck! Thank you to Rolston & Jean for arranging everything so well and letting us enjoy their lovely house. Rachel, Neil & Josh Targett
I can\'t say enough nice things about this place and the owners (Jean & Rolston Michael). We sat and talked with Jean & Rolston a few times and found them to very friendly, extremely helpful, and doing everything possible to make our stay on Antigua most enjoyable. The location is perfect if you want to be in the Southern area of the island which was nice and quiet compared to downtown St. John\'s. The was villa more than we expected from the pictures. The pool was clean, warm and plenty big enough for the 4 of us. Perhaps the best thing is the view from the upstairs balcony out towards the ocean and sky whether it be in the morning, afternoon or evening. Plenty of room in the bedrooms and everywhere in the Villa. We would return to this villa on another visit to Antigua!
