My 1st Caribbean Experience
My bff & I celebrated our 50th here and had a great experience. The resort was beautiful and the staff was exceptional! There were activities planned throughout the day and every night and transportation for outside of resort was easy to arrange. I have absolutely NO complaints and would consider The Verrandah for a future stay.
Went with 7 couples. Service was amazing - very friendly. Rooms were great -drinks were amazing and nice to have your own villa. My only complaint was that I wish it had more food options and room service. Food was so so and you weren’t allowed to take it to go and always had to eat at restaurant. If you were hungry after 12am and wanted a nack you were screwed until next day!

Will be returning
the only real complaint I have is that the bed was way too firm but if you like firm mattresses, you're good!
I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the cabin and deck. The waterview from our balcony was astounding and the quick access by foot to everything was super convenient. The grounds were very well maintained and they are building like mad so there will be more to come!
Watch out for barracuda but otherwise the beaches are wonderful. The best compliment I can give the resort is the staff is well managed and they are happy to serve you and are extremely accommodating. I will return!!!
Overall I had an amazing stay and definitely want to return to Antigua!!! I traveled as a female solo traveler and met some great people. With that said, let me get to my review. Bungalows are nice and roomy, patios lacked lounge chairs to really relax. Also housekeeping ran out of towels, wash cloths and bath towels a few times during my stay. I'm not a pool person so can't review that but the beach was okay, small and shallow but calm. Great for floating.The resort itself isn't over crowded so there is plenty of space and it's not hard to find a chair. The beach staff was very helpful and friendly, definitely take sailing lessons and enjoy the water sports. The food was also okay/good. It was hit or miss. Nicole's, the fine dining restaurant that you pay additional for wasn't worth it to me. I'm from NY so I'm surrounded by great good. You do get tons of food, 5 courses and I chose filet mignon. My scallops were overcooked. No Caribbean food at all, what a shame but taco night?? Really? So that was disappointing. Also security refused to let my taxi onto the resort upon arrival. The shuttle was full so as a solo guest I agreed to sit in the front. The security saw the color of my skin and made ignorant assumptions and literally refused to open the gate. After the driver argued back and forth she finally let us in. Not a great first impression. Discrimination is wack, especially coming from your own. Putting that aside, I really had a great vacation, the only thing holding me back from amazing is the beach, I'm a beach bum. I literally had to get on my knees to let the water come to my neck. Plus the bungalows are single story so you're not getting that breathtaking view. Nightly entertainment....... It's worth the $$ and great for families.

GOLF COURSE2 answers
IS THERE A GOLF COURSE WITHIN A REASONABLE DISTANCE FROM THE HOTEL AND WHAT ARE THEIR RATES
7 years, 90 months ago
jimmy
According to the resort's web site: Golfers can perfect their strokes at two 18-hole courses. The Cedar Valley Golf Course, designed by Ralph Aldridge, is an 18-hole, 6,157 yard, par-70 course with beautiful greens and sweeping views of the surrounding hilltops and the Caribbean sea. The 5,587 yard, par-71 Karl Litton-designed Jolly Harbor Golf Club course offers challenging play and a lovely setting, with seven lakes and hilly fairways surrounded by tropical greenery. After your game, there is excellent shopping nearby, as well as several beaches.
Most times, pricing varies depending on the time of day, time of the year, etc, therefore you would be best to contact the golf course directly for exact pricing.

What is the distance and steepness of the hills between the main resort building and the hillside bungalos3 answers
I want to know what the range of distance is between the closest and farthest hillside bungalo to the main resort building. What is the degree of incline range of the hillside bungalos?

This would be a question that the resort themselves would have to answer. If you would like to contact the resort directly, you can do so by using the following toll-free number: 866.237.1785
Thank you.
RobinCC
Don't know if this helps but they have carts that can pick you up and drop you off at your room. If you feel like it you barely have to walk during your stay.
castillo
Quite long walks, about ten to fifteen minutes, but extremeyl steep in places, with sheer drops to the rocks below in places, certainly could noy us a scooter or wheelchair on them. About 30 percent grade

Bars/tourism5 answers
How late are the bars open? What is the nearest town for shopping and site seeing? Is there a shuttle to and from the airport or do we need to arrange it?

The hours of the main bar are 10am to 12pm according to the website, please keep in mind that hours are subject to change. The nearest shopping area is in English Harbor which is 30 minutes away. The resort does not provide a shuttle to and from the airport. A shuttle can be arranged by CheapCaribbean. If you need more information please contact the resort directly at www.verandahresortandspa.com.
LisaCC
The hours of operation of the bars and restaurants vary. The capital of Antigua is about 30 minutes away for shopping and sight seeing. Please ask concierge for more information. The shared airport shuttle can be pre-booked through cheapcaribbean.com and currently costs $56.00 per person.
AlixCC
Usually until 1 to 1:30am for the bars. St.John is the only place to do anything off the resort unless you want to visit the many beaches throughout the island. St.John is a half hour cab ride, it will cost you $56 round trip for 2 people.
Shuttles are available at the airport or you can pre book like we did.

We just got off the plane, went outside and told the gentleman there we were going to the Verandah. He pointed us to the correct van and we paid $28 for a ride to the hotel for the two of us.

Bars are open until aftermidnight but not very lively places. Nearest town about 8 miles away US52$ retune, needs a free shuttle!
bbajob
The main bar was open till 1 or later. There was a shuttle to the main town for ~18 bucks US but we didn't go there so I don't know what was there. No airport shuttle but a taxi only costs $28 for 1-4 people.

Room Information
A 200 villa resort with rooms equipped with air-conditioning, bathroom with tub and shower, his and her sinks, mini-fridge, microwave, coffee/tea making facilities, iron/ironing board, satellite flat-screen TV, in suite safe and direct-dial telephone.
We loved how this hotel has natural materials incorporated into the design. Make the half-mile walk to Devil's Bridge to see a stunning natural structure.
What We'd Change
The dress code is a little higher-end than expected at a family-oriented resort. Then again, sometimes it's fun to have an excuse to dress up.
Why You Should Go
The Verandah Resort & Spa is an idyllic escape for nature lovers who still want all their creature comforts. Families and couples can both find their niche here.
