I would most definitely come back to Antigua but I will never ever return to this Royalton. The staff is amazing and we do understand the tariff and shipping issues and cost. I pray something changes asap. However beware it’s definitely a dishonest money hungry company managing this resort and it’s sad to see the staff at the brut of it.

Property was clean room was small but had everything we needed. Resort was walkable and service was ok to good. Restaurant service was slow but overall ok. Big disappointment was we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and resort did nothing for us even though they had the knowledge prior to our arrival. Other guests had a banner on their door and romantic beach dinner we were offered nothing. We enjoyed our stay but would not return nor would we recommend. This is our 4th Royalton resort we have stayed in the Royalton Punta Cana, Mexico and Jamaica and this Royalton really didn’t compare just our opinion.

I overall had a great experience and worth the price. However, I do think staff could have been friendlier, the restaurant reservations got booked out very fast and when we did get a reservation they ran out of featured dishes by the time we sat down. Every night we ate at the buffet, which thankfully food at buffet was great. The room was nice, clean, balcony was a nice add on. We did find one of the pools to be dirty one of the days but we simply got in a different pool that looked cleaner. Beach was beautiful!!!!!!! No complaints on that.

I stayed for 4 days at the end of June 2026. I liked that the resort was Adults only, but still had a party atmosphere. It wasn’t overly crowed and the sports bar had a DJ every night until 2am. I think they should get turkey sausage and bacon options for breakfast. The specialty restaurants were good. The drinks were great, and poolside and night entertainment were great and the resort overall was top notch! The staff was friendly as well! I would definitely stay there again!

The room was clean and the staff was pleasant. The food in the restaurants was just okay. The food at the buffet was much better. We wanted to take out the sailboat but staff said it would be a charge. No other activities were open to do according to the staff working. Seemed like it may have been a scam. You get asked a lot on the beach if you want to do excursions or buy things, only good thing was saying no was enough. Overall I would come here again. The beach was beautiful and the pools were great.

The staff especially Stella,Deanna and Jason were great. The food was great however they kept running short on food items and liquor. It appears that this resort rations off food liquor and supplies based on the season and/or time of day(if they are about to close). This is not the staffs fault but they have to take the backlash from the guest. Our rooms were not cleaned everyday and not restocked appropriately. We requested toilet paper that took 45 minutes to get. We enjoyed our stay but i would not consider this a Luxury resort or nowhere near 5 or 4 stars more like 3.5 stars. This is a result of poor management. This was our first stay at a Royalton I expected more.

Unfortunately, my overall experience at this property did not align with the Marriot brand. The poor level of service and hospitality we received at this property has tarnished our view of the Marriot brand. The lack of regard for guests and their experience was deplorable. Exceptional hospitality is one of the reasons we choose to stay at this property, but this experience fell well below those expectations. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and addresses their service failures so future guests do not have the same encounter that we did and receive the welcoming and attentive experience associated with the Marriot brand.
Most employees were beyond rude and disrespectful. The morale amongst most staff was poor – most appeared to dislike their job. The staff often gave the impression that guest were an inconvenience rather than a priority. Request for assistance was met with reluctance, which made the overall experience feel unwelcoming. To top of the horrible experience- while checking out we were asked to sign a NDA (non-disclosure agreement). When we asked why we were being asked to sign a NDA we were told it was in order to receive our Bonvoy points. We asked why do we need to sign an NDA in order to receive points we were told \"so that you don’t write a bad review about your experience\". We declined the points and refused to sign the NDA. Overall this was the worst experience that I have ever had.

The property is clean..

They falsely advertise there “Ocean View” rooms . There are no actual “ocean view” rooms unless you are part of diamond club … I paid for a “Luxury Ocean View” room and got a view of a pool and literally a corner of the beach . They did not offer an upgrade for the inconvenience…

There is a temporary $300 dollar charge due at check -in … they did not mention this prior to booking

The hot tubs/whirlpools are not hot and the staff refused to fix them

The spa is very clean , and “Kenneth” the massage therapist was great , but again , a cold “hot tub”

The beach is AMAZING .. clean, bright , and blue

The food is decent

The entertainment and activities are fun

The speciality restaurants require an up charge for everything .. smh

“Diane” is the sweetest attendant/bartender

Overall a decent property , but a little over priced for what they are offering …

Prior to arrival, we were unable to complete the online check-in process. When I contacted the resort for assistance, I was informed there would be a $69 charge to obtain information needed to check in. Although I notified the resort through Expedia that this was both a 50th birthday and anniversary trip and that we are Marriott Bonvoy members interested in upgrades, we received no meaningful assistance.
Upon arrival, we were informed that because we booked through Expedia, Marriott Bonvoy benefits would not apply. This information should be clearly disclosed during the booking process.
Several members of our travel group experienced delayed room access, with some not receiving rooms until after 5:00 PM. Guests who paid for Diamond Club upgrades found the benefits disappointing, as premium liquor was inconsistently available and bars frequently ran out of basic beverages.
Our room had a significant mosquito problem, and we later declined housekeeping because doors were left open during cleaning. On our second night, maintenance work outside our room at 2:30 AM woke us and was extremely disruptive.
The food quality was disappointing, cleanliness throughout the resort was inconsistent, and trash was often left in common areas. Staff appeared to expect tips despite services not meeting expectations.
Finally, despite scheduling a 10:00 AM bell service pickup for departure, no bellman arrived.

Food was great. Staff was great. Beach was awesome. Our only complaint was that they’d run out of of things for the entire day such as captain Morgan or Tito’s vodca or Jack Daniel’s. That’s just not exceptable when you’re paying all tbis money and can’t have the drink you like. They ran out of Carmel at Insomnia. Again I have Carmel coffe every morning so that was very disappointing. And the food truck at the pool ran out of ketchup. That again was very frustrating to everyone there. I mean there’s burgers and fries and no ketchup. Never never should they run out of these things. I still have it a 5 but if this would happen again I’d maybe go to another royalton property. And the daily pool activities could be bumped up a couple notches. There basically was none

I also want to say a special thank you to Anita, who checked on me every single day and beautifully decorated my room for my birthday. She made me feel so welcome and cared for. Was always interested in my videos from excursions prior to the night before.

Resort and room were very clean, and the view from our room was great. Unfortunately, the service experience did not match the property itself. Most of the staff seemed annoyed when we asked for simple things, whether it was ordering a mimosa at the bar or asking for ice in the Diamond Club lounge. This was something we experienced daily at the restaurants, lounge, and bars throughout the resort.

Another disappointing issue was how often they were out of basic items. Three of the four days they were out of champagne for mimosas. I had to try three different bars before finally finding one that had it. Another day they were out of champagne, piña coladas, and strawberry daiquiris. It honestly felt like if you ordered something from the menu, there was a good chance they wouldn’t have it.

The food truck was good, but even there the same issue happened. One day I ordered a cheeseburger and was simply told they were out of cheese. Then I ordered the chicken patty, and they were out of that too. It became frustrating because no alternatives or solutions were really offered.

The same thing happened with the bourbon in the lounge. It was gone on day one, and every day afterward when we asked if more had come in, we were told it would be restocked that night. By day six when we left, it still had never been replenished.

Overall, the resort itself was beautiful and clean, but the lack of inventory and the attitude from much of the staff took away from the experience.

Spent 4 nights at the Resort.
The welcome drink had alcohol which I do not consume. They offered to get me something else however it never came.
Checked into the room and it was hot. Bellhop attempted to adjust the settings, but it did not change. Slept in a hot room. Reported the next morning, no one came. Reported it again late afternoon which is when someone showed and said that it was sorted. Left for an event and came back late. Same situation. Reported it again. The AC was only fixed properly the day before I was scheduled to depart. At no point was i offered a room change. To add insult to injury, I ordered room service on my last night, and I received my cutlery wrapped in a fully stained napkin.
This was it for me. This is one property I will not return to.

I traveled with 5 of my bridesmaids for my bachelorette trip. Half of us stayed in what was supposed to be an upgraded Diamond Club room. The day of check in, they did not get access to their room until 9PM. They were given a hospitality room with a sink and shower and forced to shower and change. When they complained and requested compensation for the inconvenience, they were only offered a bottle of alcohol which we all felt was not sufficient. The best place to eat on the resort is Haven Grill. The steakhouse was very mid and bland. I liked my lasagna at the Italian restaurant but some of the girls did not like their food. The chicken wings in the sports bar were also really good and the female bartender in there made the best drinks on the resort (ask for a passionfruit martini). The spa was also beautiful. Julissa did my 80 minute Hot stone massage and it was perfect. The hydrotherapy pools were also complimentary when you book a spa service. The resort does provide daily entertainment, however, it caters to Caucasian tourists. My friends and I are all of Caribbean descent and were disappointed with the quality of entertainment for our demographic. The staff members who made and served our drinks at the various bars around the resort really made our stay memorable : Yoan, Courtney, Adrian and Marlon went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and our cups were never empty.

Stay in the resort, skip the St. John's local stores because kids still like to mess around with tourists. The Kings Casino is very very dark inside has many closed restroom stalls and that is why all the women have to use the men's restroom stalls. Lots of resort staff turn-over , many new people, some pool bars need inspection when the sun goes down to remove dishes/empty drinks. On the positive side the beach is clean, the rooms are clean, no bugs on the beach/pool areas and no bugs in the rooms/restaurants. Some room doors look, beat up and made us ask if they had a security problem or forced entry issue. Our Butler(s) were great, but the activities staff in the lobby are too young to take tourist questions seriously without sharing giggles, etc. We enjoyed the shows on the stage and the restaurants. The pool staff keeps the pool clean. Very good air conditioning and overall a nice resort.

This resort is the most relaxing and provides entertainment nightly. Best restaurant is the steak house! And buffet near by. We went off season!

This is a great place to stay! First off, I was a little apprehensive booking here based off of some of the reviews on Expedia and other sites. So we went with an open mind and I’m glad we did because this resort was incredible. The view and the cleanliness of the beach is great. The property is super clean and upkept. The restaurants (ALL OF THEM) deliver for breakfast lunch and dinner. The food was great and better in my opinion than other all inclusives that we stayed at. The resort is in a quiet spot that will allow you the opportunity to just relax and recharge. Our Diamond Club butlers (Andre and Subi) were attentive to all of our needs and checked in to make sure our stay was 10/10. The ONLY complaint on arrival is that our room floor was a little dirty. Made a note and the cleaning by staff was in there right away and not only did the floor get mopped, but they changed all of the filters in the room and made sure everything was A+. So, this place is absolutely worth it and don’t get sucked into the negative reviews of those below because in my opinion, I’m not sure what they saw.

We stayed in a presidential oceanfront suite which came with a butler. The butler was a surprise to us and they were fantastic. We had Andre and Subi. Their attention to our needs and dedication to make sure we had a good time made the trip relaxing and worry free. Our favorite food was the Haven Grill. You have to get your hands on the beef patties and chicken patties at the food truck by the pool they go quickly and for good reason. The entertainment during the day is trivia, exercise, poolside music. And at night, the entertainment was lovely, not over the top and easy to watch. The people on this island and at the resort are absolutely beautiful so kudos to the whole Island on that part. The resort is small, but the beach is walkable absolutely gorgeous with white sand and turquoise water calm waves, very swimmable. We left the resort making a trip to Shirley Heights. It is a large barbecue with a steel band playing that transitions to a band at night. We had a good time there. The food was delicious.

From our beautiful Presidential Suite to our amazing butlers, Rowan and Nickesha who went above and beyond for us everything was fantastic. The food was good, the pool area was fun, and the bar service at the Diamond Club pool was excellent — Ashley was phenomenal!

The bar service at the party pool bar, however, was very slow and lacked personality, even though we were tipping $3–$5 per round.

We would give this hotel 5 stars, but the nightly entertainment could be boring at times. They need more upbeat music from the Dj after the shows.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our first trip to Antigua and stay at Royalton CHIC Antigua exceeded every expectation! Ignore the negative reviews and go with an open mind. The resort is smaller, peaceful, relaxing, and far more personal than the huge crowded all inclusives we usually visit.

Our clean third-floor room overlooked the quiet pool, and the sunsets were absolutely unreal. Photos truly do not capture Antigua’s beauty.

The staff was kind, responsive, and incredibly accommodating. Anytime we needed our minibar refilled, it was handled quickly. What impressed me most was how seriously they took my severe shellfish/seafood allergies. Every restaurant and buffet asked about allergies, and servers reassured me meals were prepared carefully. I have NEVER felt safer eating anywhere, even in the US.

The highlight of our trip was CHEF FRANCIS. After meeting him during Antigua Night and complimenting both his food and karaoke skills, he surprised our group with a complimentary private dinner. It was honestly Michelin-level. Every dish was perfection, including filet, chicken skewers, scalloped potatoes, and banana flambé. One person in our group adds salt and pepper to EVERYTHING and didn’t touch either shaker. That says it all!

Huge thank you as well to Jenin and bartenders Jayson, Diane, and Rachel for making our stay unforgettable.

We also explored Antigua with an amazing local driver, Kareem Benjamin, who showed us St. John’s, Jolly Beach, Shirley Heights, and Galleon Beach where we snorkele

If you are looking for peace and tranquility, this is the place to be.
PROS:
1. Very chilled and laid back - truly a getaway from the hustle and bustle.
2. The place is beautiful, nice finishes and design taste.
3. Loved the room service amenity - no charge (unlike other resorts) and the wait time was not bad.
4. Speaking on just the room as I was in, it was pretty good - clean, up-to-date. Bed extremely comfortable, size good enough.
5. The entertainment with the dancers was really awesome - the dancers are great so I will give that to them.

CONS:
1. There is no “night-life”! So if you looking for party and fun, Everything is done pretty early.
2. Food is very tasty, but options are very limited, especially the buffet, you need way more variety and/or a different selection daily. The restaurant portions were small and they ran out of certain food quickly.
3. The reservation process at the restaurant also needs significant improvement - specifically the Caribbean Haven. We traveled 32 deep - made reservations for the Haven, and when we got there, they told us they didn’t have us down. So some of us had to wait a while and some even missed out on the oxtail dinner. How??

All in all - I’ll give it a 7 out of 10.
The aura is definitely different than other resorts I’ve stayed at. It’s best to go with a loved one to enjoy quality time away, but if you are looking for a good time, don’t have high expectations because you may leave there just a little disappointed.

The resort had some positives, but overall the experience was mixed. The pool area was very nice, and the beach views were beautiful and relaxing. The entertainment was also surprisingly good and helped make the evenings enjoyable.

The rooms were decent and generally comfortable, but there were noticeable issues with cleanliness and quality. The towels felt very cheap, and some even had stains on them, which was disappointing for a resort stay. The food quality was another letdown, as many of the meals lacked flavor and consistency.

The staff experience varied. Some employees were pleasant and helpful, while others seemed unfriendly and not very welcoming. Customer service could definitely be more consistent.

Overall, the resort has potential because of its location, pool, and entertainment, but improvements to the food quality, housekeeping standards, and customer service would make a big difference.

The biggest disappointment was the “pool view” room, which was clearly obstructed. The view was mostly blocked by trees and structures, so it didn’t match what was advertised at all. I also specifically requested a king bed and was given a double queen instead, which was frustrating and not addressed.

Service was noticeably slow, and while I understand it may have been affected by Election Day staffing, it still impacted the overall experience. There didn’t seem to be enough staff to keep things running smoothly.

The food was okay—nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. For a resort at this price point, I expected much better quality and variety.

Entertainment was also underwhelming. The vibe just wasn’t there, especially compared to other resorts in this category.

On a positive note, the property itself is visually nice and well-maintained, but unfortunately that wasn’t enough to make up for the other issues.

Overall, I wouldn’t return based on this experience.

While the resort and scenery are absolutely beautiful, the level of customer service in some areas detracts from the experience.

We think that we probably should’ve listened to the reviews that complained about the service here and stayed at another resort. On our first full day we returned to our room to find that it had not been serviced at all. After a candid conversation with Guest Services, that was no longer an issue and they (Shanika and Tracy) went above and beyond to try to ensure that we were having a better experience.

We dined at all the resort restaurants and ordered room service. The food was tasty, however don’t expect American portion sizes (except at Pescari which is at an additional cost). Our favorite restaurant was Olympus, which serves Mediterranean food. Overall it’s not clear if the staff pay attention to detail concerning food restrictions and allergies. On 3 separate occasions (twice with room service and once at the restaurant Vespa), it seems staff ignored our asks concerning our food (no cheese or pork). Perhaps the staff could benefit from training on this. Overall it was a good experience but I highly doubt I’d return to this resort.

Great resort perfect location! Beach was beautiful stunning breathtaking and not too busy! Room was cleaned regularly. A lot of mosquitoes get in room (so bring your fly zapper!) *Buffet Food* on the resort was mediocre(we left to get local food most of the time). but the Havens grill restaurant on the resort was DELICIOUS(ordered oxtail & mahi mahi) both👍👍 also the jerk chicken at the food truck was amazing ! Service for drinks is slow but if you’re assertive it’s a bit better. The foam party was so much fun!!! Then Mr. Brown down on the beach gave us a tour of the island which was amazing to see the different beaches !!! I would come back here it was a lot of fun best vacation ever !!

The Royalton CHIC is a stunning resort, however there is room for improvement.
The check in and check out staff were abrupt and not at all what would be expected of a Front of Service. I felt rushed at check in and 3 inexperienced young ladies were all speaking at once. No real happy friendly hello. On check out staff member was abrupt and again not what would be expected of a 5 star hotel.
The unsung heroes were the cleaners, maintenance staff and gardeners. They kept the Resort immaculate.
Superb choice of Restaurants but Elements buffet, apart from breakfast choice was poor, so make sure you reserve at Hunters, Olympus, Vespa, Haven.
There needs to be more sun Parasols. Enough beds but not enough shade.

The resort is located on a beautiful quiet beach, calm waters, and a nice stretch of sand where you can walk along the water.
The only complaint I have is that there were not enough umbrellas at the beach along with the beach chairs.

My stay at the Chic Royalton was amazing check in and out was seamless with great help with front desk clerk Aja! She was a Gem and made my stay memorable. The room upon check did smell mildewing but staff acted immediately to accommodate and the food from the coffee shop was good, buffet was mediocre, Vespa’s had the best food option and Olympus appetizer were really good!! Hunt steak was underwhelming and food came out warm and took a while. Overall experience was 8/10 highly recommended. All inclusive food isn’t always the best so explore options off of the resort to maximize experience in Antigua.

Overall I had a great experience at the Royalton Chic Antigua. The Fit Team was fantastic. I loved the daily aquafit! The Vibe Team did a great job keeping the atmosphere lively.

For food there were a few areas that could be improved. I really enjoyed the chicken parm at Vespa, but the pasta sauce could have been better, and the cacio e Pepe sauce wasn’t great.

The breakfast buffet was very good with lots of options, and the flank steak and mashed potatoes at the steakhouse were excellent!

Everyone is very nice but Ersa goes above and beyond she is very down to earth. Richie the bartender along with the others were fantastic. My family and I had a wonderful time and we are looking forward to visiting again. We also enjoyed the butler service. We also visited Shirley Heights, breathtaking views and the food and music was fantastic. We had a wonderful time.

The location was beautiful, and we had a great time. There was plenty of space and time to relax, along with fun activities throughout each day…especially being hosted by the amazing vibe team. The food was good, and the staff was friendly.

The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the drink cups at the pool bars were old and cracked. Thankfully, we were told ahead of time to bring our own reusable cups. Also, when certain drinks or items were unavailable, the bar staff didn’t offer alternatives.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it.
