Excellent value for price as compared to the resorts on the island. Adorable cottages with all the comforts of home right on the water and within walking distance of a secluded beach. Great internet and cable TV.

Our was furnished with everything needed to cook and prepare our meals. easy walk to the local beaches. A great to relax on your Carribean vacation

Yepton Estate was a perfect match for what we needed for our 4-day stay in Antigua. Our cottage was very quiet, clean, with an extremely comfortable bed and a very well equipped kitchen as well as strong Wi-Fi. The property is a bit off the beaten path, so having a car is a necessity if you want to get around. We did have a rental car and explored the island from there. There is a small beach within walking distance although we never found it due to a miscommunication but there are plenty of accessible beaches elsewhere.
There is only one small restaurant within a short drive. For everything else you need to drive into St. John’s. Fortunately the manager had advised us in advance to stop for groceries on the way from the airport. There are plenty of supermarkets on that way. Overall we had a very pleasant visit to Antigua and Yepton Estate.

Sent 4 emails before arrival and gotno reply.
Decent cottage, comfortable bed, good shower. Sadly no helpful information about getting around, nearest places to eat etc.
Pool small, but lovely after a hot day.
Used bus and taxi to get around.
Be prepared for very noisy tree frogs at night.

This was such a lovely and relaxing time. One of the best beaches in Antigua is a short walk away. Gabriela and Douglas are excellent hosts, with a wealth of knowledge of Antigua. If you are looking for quiet, secluded restful vacation, look no further.

The property is absolutely gorgeous and easy to find. The owners are wonderful. Gabriela went out of her way to provide a late check-in and didnt bat an eyelash. She also assisted us with getting to our next lodging destination since our stay was only for one night as a bridge to an all inclusive resort. She was friendly personable and even provided an upgrade on the cottage. The cottage exceeded our expectations. It was clean, had plenty of room and was everything we needed for the night. We only booked for a one night stay but if we didnt already have other reservations Yepton would have been our top choice. Please dont hesitate on this rental you wont regret it!

Not on the beach but near enough to several beaches and overlooking a peaceful, pelican-busy lagoon, landscaped with native ornamentals, self contained and very safe, this was a great find. Gabby, our innkeeper, gave an insider's shrewd advice on everything from great restos to where to park to see the market, and helped us find a doc for pre-boarding COVID testing, too. Our bungalow, like all of them, had a fully equipped efficiency kitchen, good beds, hot shower, comfy living area, GOOD LIGHTING!, and inside/outside dining tables. A screen for the front cottage door would be helpful, and perhaps some small repairs on window screening. And you WILL, of course, need to rent a car to get around. But this place was really pleasant, great value, quiet, and old school in the best sense. Very highly recommended.

This property has everything you need to rest and relax for your vacation. It was clean and cute and my Wife and I enjoyed ourselves immensely. Some real nice beaches close by and I cannot recommend high enough.

Yepton Estate Cottages was an extremely pleasant experience. We were there for a week in April 2021 and had a wonderful time. We are divers and the location was central enough to get to all the dive shops. BTW the diving was fabulous. Best to rent a car and be sure you communicated with Gabriela so she can give you the best directions to get to the Cottages.
Gabriela and Doug were the best hosts as they are very knowledgeable about the area and pretty good historians about Antigua as well.
The cottages were clean and comfortable and the whole experience was relaxing. A great place to relax and unwind and you will love a holiday stay at the Yepton Cottages.

It’s a common theme in reviews of the cottages, but Gabriella & Douglas truly are wonderful hosts. Whether you have been to the island before or not, they will have as much information as you could wish for to make the most of your stay.
The cottages (No. 1 in our case) are kitted out with *everything* needed for a self catering vacation. Whichever cottage you select, you will also be adopted by Finches who will expect to share breakfast.
The location was perfect for us, a secluded spot only minutes from St Johns. The view over the lagoon at dawn and dusk watching the cruise ships slide past is pretty special.
The lagoon brings egrets/herons of various shapes and colours, ducks, moorhens, pelicans (“pelican... splash!” became a catchphrase of our recent stay), and mongooses. (Moorhens do not appreciate a proximate mongoose and will ‘growl’ at one.)
Bring the most effective insect repellent that works for you. The seawater and occasional tropical rain = biting critters. You will be bitten.
(It was my turn this year.)
You’ll need to hire a car. Antigua is a cash-poor nation, trying its best, and the roads reflect this. Drive slow, eyes open, you’ll be fine. Renting from a big name firm may not mean ... previously we rented from a global name and the car was not what we’d expect in Europe or the US. This year we rented from a local firm and the service and car were excellent.
Tune the radio to 94.9fm, kick back and relax.

We have just returned from a 3 week stay in Antigua with the last 8 days at Yepton Estate Cottages. We were expecting something special, having read the reviews, and we weren't disappointed. The cottage was fantastic, overlooking the lake so that we had spectacular views of the bird life, including swooping displays by the many frigate birds that visited every day. The cottage was superbly appointed with a super comfy and extra large bed, well equipped kitchen and a great deck with a gas barbecue which we used every night. There were so many little details and extra touches, such as original paintings, fresh flowers and a mobile phone with credit, which set Yepton apart from other accommodation. Gabriela and Douglas were the perfect hosts, welcoming, helpful, informative and friendly, but never intrusive. For various reasons we didn't hire a car, but this wasn't a problem for us, as Gabriela took us to the supermarket after we arrived, and then kindly topped us up with a few extra provisions during the week. We strolled every day to Deep Bay, (about 20 minutes gentle walk) and frequently had the beach almost to ourselves. It was wonderful, with white, powdery sand and calm, safe swimming. The location is ideal for independent-minded people who want to relax and enjoy the tranquillity of this unique environment. If we ever return to Antigua, this is where we will stay.

I rented two cottages for my wife and I, as well as our two adult children. We enjoyed the property with the multitude of birds and water fowl. Doug informed us of the best beaches and places to visit on the island, and Gabriella was very helpful and hospitable with all of our personal needs. She even gave my wife some after sun lotion to use after a full day at the beach. The kitchen and barbecue enabled us to prepare some meals right at our cottages. If you prefer to stay away from the all inclusive hotels, you will be very pleased at Yepton Estate Cottages.

We enjoyed our 6-night stay at the Yepton Cottages. Gabriella and Douglas are terrific hosts. We were in Antigua in the offseason, which meant many stores/restaurants were closed but also meant the beaches were pleasantly deserted!! We felt we had some beaches all to ourselves. We snorkeled every day and visited St John only once, which was plenty. We were there for the beach. It was wonderful to have a full kitchen as we cooked breakfast and dinner every day in the cottage, which saved a lot of money.

We spent a week on Antigua and very much enjoyed our stay at Yepton Estate Cottages. We can definitely recommend it, unless you're looking for a big resort experience with beach bars etc. Douglas and Gabi were excellent hosts and always available for help, starting with a grocery shopping trip on the day of arrival and an in-depth explanation of the island's attractions, all the way to help with reservations for rental cars and boat cruises. The kitchen was exquisitely equipped, which came in handy because we used the grill on the porch quite a bit. Cottage included sitting area with a comfortable couch, TV, stereo, a separate bedroom with AC, a breakfast area, wifi, patio chairs and cable, and a hammock. No problems at all with the solar driven water heating system, we had hot water at any time of the day. Obviously, this is not a five star hotel but the cottages are all well kept up. There is a small pool on the grounds, not big enough to swim in. Be aware that the cottages are not on the beach but overlook a large saltwater pond, which is a big attraction for many different kinds of birds. If you want to go to the beach, it's an easy, less than five minute walk to the adjacent Coconut Beach resort. Plus, you can walk for 15 minutes or drive down quickly to Deep Bay beach next door, which turned out to be one of the nicest beaches we saw. The prevalent winds can be strong. Made it a bit harder to use the grill, but hey,they keep the mosquitoes away!

Amazing! The cottage was in a beautiful setting. The lake and pool views were just stunning and hearing the ocean day a night was very relaxing. The cottage owners are amongst the most friendly people I have ever met and made our stay in Antigua fantastic. They welcomed us with a drink, took us to the shops to buy food for our cottage and told us all the places to visit on the island as well as having excellent restaurant recommendations. I was devastated when our stay came to an end. I will return one day.
