The lady who oversees the villa was there to meet us on arrival and was helpful throughout our stay. A nice touch was the provision of a local phone, which we could use to reach her and make local calls, adding to the convenience of our stay. There was an informative Welcome Folder about the amenities in the villa and local attractions, making it easy to navigate and enjoy everything Jolly Harbour and further afield has to offer.

The villa is opposite a club/clubs, We were kept awake some nights by loud music that continued into the early hours. This is not a luxury villa. The property is tired and is in need of general maintenance. Some of the bedroom/bathroom doors do not close properly; the bathroom fittings {other than the master} are worn and are in need of updating as does the cooker and dishwasher. New towels are needed and some of the linen threadbare. The brightly coloured sofa is marked and some of the tiles in the kitchen area are scuffed. Whilst the tiled floor was probably mopped before our arrival, the state of my kids new socks from walking barefoot in the villa, would suggest that the entire villa needs a deep steam clean. I spent my third day mopping, tired of rescuing the socks. Although free WiFi is listed as provided, we did not have any WiFi for 2 days. When it was fixed, due to the positioning of the box in the master bedroom and the thick walls, WiFi was not available in any of the other bedrooms and only at the very entrance to the sitting area. We were surprised to find a note detailing a maximum permitted use for electricity and WiFi and that clients would be invoiced for use above the stated maximum. A pleasant sitting area outside was marred if you looked up where you were greeted by discoloured wooden panels in need of painting.

A beautiful, spacious villa which is well presented and has everything you need. The private pool is a good size and the verandah provides lots of outside space for sunbathing/relaxing/dining. The services of both the Estate Manager, Hazel and the driver, Lava could not be faulted. We felt well looked after but without interfering. The villa is close to stunning beaches as well as an excellent supermarket, restaurants, car hire, pharmacy etc. We would love to return.

N/a as it was self catering

Nothing to dislike

Location is great if you are looking for the best Antigua beaches plus many restaurants and supermarket at walking distance

Great location surrounded by a number of very good restaurants and supermarket near by. A car is essential. so many things to do and see on the island

Bugs that bite!!! both around the villa and elsewhere! Otherwise the villa was faultless. loved it

Location is perfect for the short walk to Jolly Harbour day time or evening. Also perfectly locating for experiencing at least 5 beaches very locally and within minutes. Lots of birds in the garden which is lovely in the morning. Very sunny swimming pool. The garden is well kept and very pretty. Lovely large veranda for breakfast. We also made use of the BBQ which was great fun for one of our evenings in.

Fabulous location, beautiful spacious rooms, lovely view, mellow vibe, exceptional support from the villa owner and support staff at the villa, lots to do nearby and probably located in the nicest part of the island-spectacular beaches nearby

Ffrye’s House is a really wonderful place to stay in Antigua. It’s well – situated on the island and close to a good number of the finer beaches. It has a great beach bar, restaurants and a supermarket very close. It’s right beside Jolly Harbour from where you can be picked up at the marina to go on excursions. The house has everything you could need to be comfortable. It’s very airy with high ceilings and the bedrooms are cool and shaded, all with bathrooms. There’s plenty of space so that you never feel closed -in. The lounge, kitchen and dining areas are large and very comfortable. There’s plenty of furniture for eating, sitting or lazing on the veranda and around the well – maintained, refreshing pool. The garden is home to very tame and hungry birds. The atmosphere in and around the house allows you to feel completely relaxed and at peace, exactly how you’d want to be on holiday. We fully recommend it to anyone.
