A unique fun place.
A unique fun place.
Although initially not impressed as the location was rather smaller than viewed on the web we then realised that although the property was dated it was clean and comfortable. The ambience however was great and it is really unique in the sense that nothing else can be founds like it on the Island. The dogs and cats were such a feature and Sonja , the owner was so helpful and friendly. So dont expect luxury , just enjoy the garden with its palm trees and flowers and the visits from teh dogs and cats. We were not disturbed at all by the dogs or by the goats, cattle, donkeys and bulls grazing outside the Pink Shack....loved it.

Tropical little shack with everything you need.
Tropical little shack with everything you need.
Stayed 2 weeks, location in 5 islands which we found the most beautiful part of Antigua. Best beach which is a 10 min drive called Deep Bay. Rented a Jeep from owner which was handy. Only one negative about Antigua is the price of groceries. We brought only carry on luggage so couldn’t pack food. Next time a huge suitcase full of food lol. Overall a great relaxing holiday!

A little bit of Paradise
A little bit of Paradise
A perfect holiday from start to end. We were very well looked after from the moment we met the driver who welcomed us at the airport arrivals to the moment we hugged Sonja goodbye when she dropped us at the departures. Sonja's little cottages are very picturesque in her beautiful tropical garden. The other guests were very friendly when we bumped into them from time to time. We were actually staying in her next door neighbour's very spacious and well equipped apartment. Sonja is a great host, and took us on an introductory tour of the local beaches and eating places.. Wonderful food especially on Saturdays when an excellent local chef takes the day off from one of the grand resorts and cooks in the garden of his house, within walking distance of Pink Shack. We were so glad that we chose Pink Shack and not one of the big resorts. We had great contact with the locals who are incredibly friendly. Highly recommended.

Loved the idea of the cottages and the privacy was nice. However a vehicle was an absolute must. We had a tough time getting used to the multiple dogs barking in the area. I would suggest bringing ear plugs. We turned the fan on high and closed some of the windows. Ear buds during the day helped distract from the noise. Antigua has lots to offer. Explore!

I stayed in Sonjas pink cottage for 6 nights last December, short, but the best start to a Caribbean holiday I could ever wish for. The cottages are wonderful, cozy, clean and decorated with love. The size of the space is absolutely sufficient for sleeping, food preparation, and lounging with a book and a cup of tea/glass of rum out on the deck. It is an oasis and wonderfully quiet place off the busy places, exactly what I needed to wind down from stress and relax. Little frogs and other nocturnal critters are a beautiful background noise to fall asleep to. There is a bunch of small, very social and friendly little dogs around, but every cottage has its own gate and they are well trained and wont bother you if you dont want any contact. Sonja is a wonderful host, she will take you on a tour around Five Islands and beyond, to show you beautiful beaches and places to visit. One beach is in walking distance just over the hill. Sonja is happy to make arrangements for you if you want help with planning day trips, hikes, or snorkeling destinations. It is easy to order a cab to get around, Sonja provides her guests with their own phone during their stay, and she also rents cars. As a female single traveler, I always felt safe and would spend evenings alone in the nearby capital of St. Johns. Oh, and last but not least, I should not forget the fabulous turkey dinner Sonja made for Christmas! Would I go back? I actually booked my ticket already ( -;

We had a great 3 week stay in Antigua. Sonja has 5 cute little cottages in lush gardens of tropical flowers, shrubs and fruit trees, which she has all planted and designed herself. The cottages are all slightly different, but all well designed, spotlessly clean, with full kitchens and outside sitting areas.One has a large raised deck area surrounded and secluded by bamboo and palms, one has a sitting area up some steps with lovely countryside views, one has a large grassed area in front with seats and sunbeds....all are charming and so is Sonja. Always available on site if you need any help with trips, taxis, jeep hire etc but doesnt intrude if you want a quiet time.She offers a weekly cleaning and linen change free of charge, and also supplies huge bottles of water at cost price, very useful.Antigua is beautiful and quite undeveloped compared to Barbados, the capital St Johns is interesting to stroll around, thronged with locals and cruise ship passengers, lots of vendors selling fresh fruit and veg from the back of their vans.Some gorgeous beaches, Deep Bay (15 mins walk away from Pinkshacks), Half Moon Bay and Long Bay were our favourites, great for swimming and snorkelling.Hiring a car or jeep is advisable but there are frequent buses into St Johns and from there you can get buses to other areas of the island.Theres not really anywhere to eat out within walking distance of Pinkshacks but we enjoyed shopping in the markets and doing our own cooking, or getting ready made food in the local supermarkets and reheating. There is a local barbeque in Five Islands Village twice a week.Another thing we really enjoyed were the birds of Antigua, there are salt ponds and mangrove swamps full of birdlife, pelicans diving for fish, frigate birds, egrets, herons, ospreys, whistling ducks etcThanks Sonja for a great holidayCath and Nigel
