Spacious condo steps to the beach
Our family of 4 enjoyed our week-long stay at Tranquility Bay Antigua, a quiet and peaceful condo resort steps from the beautiful Jolly Beach on the Caribbean (western) side of the island, with access to the swimming pools, gym, tennis, activities and evening programs at the lively all-inclusive resort next door with an international crowd, including plenty of families with kids. Our 2 Br/ 2 Bath condo was spacious and well equipped for our family, we were able to prepare breakfasts and lunches in our condo kitchen , dine outdoors on the covered balcony and walk to nearby restaurants at Jolly Harbor Marina for dinners. Hotel staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful at scheduling tours and excursions of the island. TBA felt safe and secure. Condo building was older but clean, Beds were comfortable, washer/dryer was provided in our condo, housekeeping services were provided and this was a good home base for us as we explored Antigua. We had rented a car to drive/explore ourselves but driving was treacherous as roads are narrow, potholed, not always paved and driving is on the left. We were often dodging pedestrians, livestock and other vehicles. I would recommend using taxis.

NOT SO TRANQUIIL!!!
Sadly Tranquility isn't all that tranquil after all! Major problems with my booking upon arrival.................I was not alone.....other guests had the same issues! The place is very dated, needs serious work done......if you Google the place it comes up as one of the top hotels in Antigua!!! No it isn't! Certainly no where near 4 star as it claims....more 2 star!!! Staff, pleasant enough but not that interested nor helpful when there''s a problem.....too many 'Island smiles' and not enough done efficiently. On the plus side.....bed very comfortable, sun always hot and beach lovely and close by. Would definately NOT stay there again unless someone else paid! Not value for money, overpriced......so NOT RECOMMENDED AS A PLACE TO STAY!!! Antigua itself is a beautiful island but an expensive island too, lots of extra costs when dining 10% service + 15% island tax..... ie....non-alcoholic smoothie on the beach EC$15.00 - US$8.00+++!!!!! Almost glad to be home even if the weather sucks!!!

Front desk person was very friendly but gave horrible directions and did not even know there was a donkey sanctuary on the island. Our room had a broken dryer which was not repaired the entire week we were there. Air conditioning was poor which left the bedding and clothes damp. Livingroom furniture was uncomfortable.

Nice 2 bedroom suite right off the beach
Suite was very clean although dated. Good size for a family of four and having a full kitchen made it nice to stock items for the week instead on eating out for every meal. 1 of the 3 air conditioners was not working (barely running as a fan) but weather was pleasant enough to get by without it. I would say they should change the feature about free Wi-Fi in room since we were never able to get a signal from any device to connect. Only small area by reception could get you on the Internet (no cell service at all which was fine by me - remember we are on vacation)! Grounds were kept very clean and they even helped us take groceries back from supermarket using a golf cart. Master bedroom was very spacious.

Best Bang For your money
Excellent front desk staff, welcoming, friendly and informative. Rooms are spacious clean and well stocked with clean towels, dishes great for family vacations. Call for a golf cart pickup to dinner and back at ant if the great restaurants in around the area. The beach is in your door step just put on your sandals or barefoot it to the beach on the property.

Wonderful Experience!
My and family and I were very happy that we stayed at Tranquility Bay Hotel and highly recommend this hotel to others. We felt safe, the staff was extremely nice, especially Jerron, Joanne and Filomena. Jerron was very helpful. The beach is beautiful and safe to swim in. Our two bedroom suite was close to the beach. We love the spaciousness and the cleanliness of our two bedroom suite. The decor of the suite was nice. The washer and dryer was a plus it felt wonderful not having to do laundry on our return back from vacation. The supermarket in the area was also an added bonus. I, therefore, recommend Tranquility Bay to others without hesitation. We had a wonderful safe, time staying there.

Friendly hotel, close to wonderful beach
Pleasant hotel stay - close to Wonderful beach and clear blue sea - what's not to like? Spacious, clean rooms with helpful staff. Decor is slightly dated, and facilities may be in some need of upgrading, but that does not detract from the benefits of a great location in an area of natural beauty.

No Air-Conditioning. At All!!
DO NOT STAY HERE! No working AC even after multiple complaints from us and from other vacationers. When I spoke to the Operations Manager, Mrs Watty, (after three nights in a row of no working AC) she shamed me for needing an AC. She doesn't have AC at her house or ceiling fans, why should I need one? Because I paid for a room with a working AC!!!! Save your money and go elsewhere for a few extra dollars.

Family Stacation
The facilities were great and located just two minutes walk to an amazing beach, 5 minutes to a large supermarket and 5 minutes walk to a large family friendly pool. The gym was small but adequate. we bought and cooked our own food and there were a few really nice restaurants close by. Love it will plan to do this again as soon as possible.

A very " Jolly" place to stay!
Hotel was in a great location and the staff was extremely helpful the rooms were spacious and contained two balconies. The one bedroom in which we stayed in contained a large shower, living room,and full kitchen. The Maids provided us with fresh towel daily and we're extremely helpful and polite they provided us with anything that was missing in our rooms with a smile. We were there during the week of Carnivale and participated in their parade and by the end of the stay we were fortunate enough to be relocated to a room that had a view of the beach.. the staff went out of their way to make sure that our stay was memorable.

Awesome Trip
It was my family first trip to Antigua. Our Stay at Tranquility Bay was awesome. We had a two bedroom and a one bedroom for six of my family members. The beach was so close and the supermarket was within walking distance. The staff was always friendly and helpful. Blue water and white sandy beach. My only downside was the noisy air conditioning unit. I would go back to Antigua again and will stay at the Tranquility Bay Resort. Jolly beach my family and I will be back. And if you need a good cab driver to show you around the island please ask for cab driver Trini at the airport such a nice and friendly man.

Great apartments and fantastic beach
We had 2 enormous rooms with our apartment and the apartment was great. The staff is very friendly and the facilities we could use at the Jolly Beach Resort are fantastic. The wifi was good when it works - but it was down for 3 days which was a pain. They are very strict on check out time at 11am. I requested a check out at 12 noon but they insisted on charging for the extra time!! I think most hotels would have been more flexible on this as they were not expecting any other guests and the resort was pretty empty.

Great Beach, Great Location
This is what I would call a 3 star hotel. I was looking for something from which I could walk to the beach and from which you could walk to stores and restaurants. This was in my budget but significantly less expensive than many of the other hotels on the beach. This is connected to to Jolly Harbor resort which you share facilities with. The beach is really nice and we enjoyed hanging out there. One thing you need to keep in mind is that this place is basically an all inclusive which is optional and we did not do, so if we wanted to drink on the beach we had to either buy a cash card or go next door to Castaways, which we did. This was not a problem for us. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only knock would be that they were never able to get me a working CD player and the complimentery toiletries seemed to change every day and we occasionally had to request things we were running out of. I enjoyed having the kitchen as we made our own breakfast everyday which saved us money as the restaurants are expensive. For dinner we went to some of the number of good restaurants within walking distance. The Acropolis was one of my favorites , the best lamb shanks I have ever had, and Miracles, out on the corner of the main street, with some truly great curry and lobster. I also liked being able to walk 5 minutes to the grocery store. Over all the place has some minor imperfections but we enjoyed our stay there and would stay there again.

Location, location, location
The location of this property was excellent, We had one of the 3 units in the entire resort that actually faced the ocean and provided beuatiful sunset views from the good sized balcony deck. The unit we had provided a small kitchen and living area, with a large bedroom. Closet space was good and the King Sized bed was comfy. The kitchen was well equiped. There were plenty of places for pictures to hang, but someone must have liked them as there was nothing left on the walls but the nails.Towels for the beach and having them replaced was a big issue as there was never any to be had. Chairs on the beach? Forget it! The air conditioning was noisy like a jet and failed to cool well. Remote controls for the air were missing and once replaced did not function well. hot water was an issue, maybe becasue wewere at the end of a long unit. The livng area had furnitire that was not really usable, but who spends time sitting inside anyway. Our unit we had was linked to another and therefore noisy at times. I think generally the resort needs to renovate all suites. The resort cuts off the room keys early on the last day and that casued some issues for sure,that doesn't need to be included in the vacation package. All in all, now that we have seen the entire island, this location was best for us and very convienient, including a great grocery store. The beach was 1 mile long and awesome. I would rent one of the condos on the harbour next time!
