Our stay in Antigua was unsurprisingly memorable. Our 7 day excursion at Halcyon Cove in Dickenson Bay was a nice way to end November. We were already pleased with out Rex resort bookings in the past. This hotel was very well kept and rooms spacious. We enjoyed our beach front room since we were easily accessible to fun in the sun! The staff was great especially Roxanne Meyers, SHondelle, chef Eggbert and receptionist Cherobin. We took the all inclusive plan which I think was worth it however there is a big break in food availability from 3:30 to 6:30 which can lead to a growling tummy if you missed lunch! They do offer a tea time hour with some light snacks (with an emphasis on light). There is only 1 a la carte restaurant which is very nice however the meals on the menu are limited as some of the best dishes are not available on the all inclusive plan which meant that you had to pay extra for those meals. The lunch time dishes were also limited in selection- it mainly consisted of burgers, fries and some local dishes served outside by the beach. The dishes at dinner time were excellent especially the soups and desserts..I loved the organization and ambiance of the buffet diner. It wasnt too large and it still offered a sense of tranquilty while dining. We went out on most nights for entertainment which was a lot of fun including Coconut Grove for drinks, kareoke at the casino, club Rush, Shirely Heights on a sunday followed by CLub Mongoose. The entertainment on premise was jamming especially the live bands! The town of St John was still preserved in its natural state which is nice to still see in some of these Caribbean islands. We picked up some good finds in the Craft Market in town, where you can negotiate prices with the local sellers. We also managed to meet a lot of friendly local Antiguans who charmed their way into our hearts. All in all our, our stay was quite sweet and I would surely return!

So much a part of the vacation you have is made from the people you meet on vacation. This starts with hotel staff who are polite, friendly, helpful and enjoy their work. The staff at the Halcyon have these traits in spades. You know they mean for you to have the best vacation ever. They set a fun atmosphere where you feel free to meet other guests and participate in the hotels amenities. Tennis is our sport. We met another couple and played 7 days in a row. A new record for our family. Thanks to the Antiguans at Halcyon.
