Five Islands Village Vacation Packages

I had such high expectations for this stay. The Pros: When we first arrived, the woman that checked us in was so nice. The room was nice and clean and looked exactly like the pictures. The view was beautiful and we loved the mini pool. The Cons: It’s “all inclusive” but you have to go during the breakfast, lunch and dinner hours. The service for the meals was really hit or miss, being mostly a miss. A few times the servers literally forgot about us. It took so long to order and get our food for dinner, we would not have gone if we weren’t starving. And even with all the waiting the food was still cold and not very good. I had the burger the first night and it was just burnt. Not chard but burnt. The fries were cold. The next night, I said I wouldn’t make the same mistake and got the fish. It had no seasoning and it was cold and our server seemed so annoyed, like she was being forced to work there. I get AI resorts don’t normally have the best food and I wasn’t expecting a bunch, but this food and service were so disappointing and the worst part of this trip. We left saying we’d never be back but looking back I think we would return, just with a new set of expectations. The room was great with amazing views. It doesn’t seem impossible to get a better menu and staff that’s more attentive.

Beautiful beach. Staff generally friendly. Forced to eat buffet everyday as other restaurants booked up well in advance. Coffee smelt like goats and didn't taste much better. Took an hour to get a pizza by the beach. Limited top shelf booze...depended on what bar you were at.

The damn frogs were beefin all night sounding like they were chilling in a rocking chair all night. Seaweed smell was cray in the mornings. BUT really enjoyed the spa, snorkeling excursion and friendliness of the staff. Oh and the coffee shop was a great perk.

Hammock Cove was a really nice property. Food was absolutely delicious (small portions). Rooms were modern, spacious shower, personal pool in your villa, all you can drink top shelf alcohol. The staff is friendly as well as the owner. Definitely would visit Antigua and Hammock Cove Resort again.

Beautiful views. I like the indoor/outudoor living of the cottages. We traveled in January I am not sure how much I would enjoy the indoor/outdoor living if we came in summer. It may be too hot for mr to shower outside. Cottages were very clean. They leave you with bug spray, disinfected spray, little touches we have not experienced before. Food was excellent! Everything we ate was delicious. There are water coolers and ice all around the resort and they provide stainless steel water bottles - also a nice touch. The resort is literally embedded into a hillside - be prepared to walk steep hills, and a lot of steps. This resort is not for someone who cannot ger around easily.
