I wish I could rave about how awesome this place was, but I can't. PROS: the beach front is beautiful and there are plenty of chairs. Front desk staff, Paulette, was amazing and the most helpful out of every staff at the place. CONS: the 1st room we were put in didn't have a working AC (and it was HOTTT out), I kindly asked the front desk to get it fixed or even just give us a fan. She called maintenance and literally said "I have a guest here complaining about AC, she wants someone to look at it."- never looked at me, was so rude, etc. No one ever showed up. We went back the next day (now 2 nights in a HOT room) and it took until that evening to be told we were moving "for 1 night" to a new room so pack just overnight items needed. The rooms themselves are not very nice- our shower was patched together LOL our bathroom had no towels, TP, etc- we had to ask for these. There is 1 restaurant (besides the buffet) but we could never get a reservation because it was booked by 8am every day- on my vaca the last thing I want to do is set an alarm just to walk all the way to the lobby to make a reservation. It doesn't need to be that difficult! The buffet was decent most days, same food over and over so if you don't like variety you will be ok. If you do go here and get a room by the pool/restaurant just know it is going to be SUPER loud starting early in the morning until late at night. We will unfortunately never return to this place, even if it were free.

Just don’t. Pay more and go somewhere else. We just returned from a weeklong stay & I find it very difficult to share anything positive except the stretch of beach in front of the property - it was absolutely beautiful. The hotel needs a massive renovation. The staff needs to be trained on Customer service. No upkeep of the grounds. Our bathroom did not even have a door instead an old shower curtain. The property honestly should be a reflected as a two star property. So disappointing. The pics in the advertisements do not reflect what you will see. Too much to list. We spent most of our time away from resort because it was so dismal & the majority of staff was one star.

Realizing this was a 3 1/2 star resort, we were more than pleased with our weeklong stay at Jolly Beach resort. All of the staff from the front desk, Beach towel dispenser, dining room staff, bartenders, and the Coconut Grill were all extremely polite and helpful throughout the week. There was a good variety of selections at the evening buffet with a rotation of dining themes every night. Knowing this was a midrange resort the food was plentiful and good. Breakfast was always a highlight. The Pizza factory was a la carte and had some of the best pizza we have experienced- we do wish the pizza was offered as a lunch item. The menu had a variety of options so there was something for everyone and their different tastes. The lunch at the beach grill was great! A wide variety of options were all excellent. Jermaine at the Coconut grill took good care of us everyday especially the last day as we had to leave by 12:30 and she made sure we had our selected choices ready and served first in order to catch our cab on time. Karla at the front desk was especially helpful on several occasions with assisting us with a room concern and a day trip after Michelin at the excursion desk had already left for the day. John in the lobby area that assisted with luggage and greeting was also of great help. Clinton the General Mgr was always helpful and available. It’s very noticeable the efforts to bring back alive this perfectly located resort. The rooms could use additional upgrades & amenities.

I stayed at this resort with my husband from January 6-13th 2024 and it felt like I was in 1995. The resort was so outdated and the service is so far behind. Imagine changing your own bedsheets on vacation and no water being provided in your room. I never complain about my stays because I’m an easy going person but this resort deserves to hear this review. Don’t get it wrong, the beach was beautiful but the resort specifically was horrible. I do not recommend this resort to anyone.

jolly Beach Resort is an outdated property that sits on absolutely the most beautiful beach on Antigua. While it is in dire need of updating, the entire property including the rooms are are impeccably clean. I cannot say enough good things about the staff, each and everyone of them are hard-working, attentive and extremely friendly and always quick to share a smile. both pools on the property are beautiful. The large one does need a paint job. The only thing that really did bother me were the cigarette butts that people left on the beach, it's not the resorts fault. If you go in with realistic expectations, he will absolutely have a fantastic time. As soon as you see that beach she won't even care what your room looks like.

Beautiful beach
Best beach in all of Antigua, old resort being renovated but still needs work. Food was mediocre, all buffet style One actual restaurant but you can only book twice in a week stay, if any availability. Only entertainment is at bar a singer With an awesome voice but sings the same 10 songs nightly - two pools, drinks are decent. We stayed in a room with two queens it had coffee maker and mini fridge. Budget rooms don’t Our bathroom looked like a 10 year old tried to renovate it?? All in all it’s a beautiful island and beach and very budget friendly resort. Not crowded at all and we really loved our catamaran excursion day trip around the whole island $ - not included
