“Upon arrival Alyson informed us of a potential issue with plumbing at our original booking and immediately upgraded us to a different, equally lovely unit with its own private pool. Place was super clean and comfortable. All the nearby beach’s were the finest on the island (in our opinion) and minutes away from both of her units. Wonderful location and wonderful units, would happily stay at either of the units again when staying in the area.”
“Great stay! The place clean and comfortable.”
“We stayed for just over a week and we absolutely loved the flat. It’s very clean, spacious, and has the most beautiful view of the Fryers/Jolly Beach. The light and energy in the place is amazing—it really felt like home.
The bedroom and bathroom are great, and the flat has everything you could possibly need. Alyson and Tony were lovely—very helpful and responsive throughout our stay. Their hospitality really reflects the warmth of Antigua.
The only thing to note is that if you’re renting a car, the roads in Antigua can be a bit rough, so it helps to be a confident driver. Other than that, we honestly have nothing bad to say.
Highly recommend!”
“Alyson was such a lovely and helpful host. She met us for check-in, gave us a quick tour, & helpfully went over what beaches, restaurants & shops were the local area. Alyson was always on hand if we needed help & very kindly checked in with us occasionally to see if we required anything. She put us in touch with a colleague of hers who very helpfully took us to the supermarket the evening we arrived to get supplies.
The apartment was immaculate, with a very comfy bed & the kitchen well-equipped with everything needed to cook. We really appreciated having cold water on demand via a water cooler. The view from the apartment is absolutely stunning – the pictures don't do it justice! Access to the property is down steps but these are very grippy, even when wet, & there is handrail.
Great location, a quiet local area not far from amenities. Beaches are close-by & easily walkable. Just 0.5 mile from nearest beach, two others at 0.75 and 1 mile. We will definitely stay with Alyson again!”
“I could not recommend Alyson’s Airbnb enough. It was very clean, had absolutely anything you’d need, and the view was one of the best I have experienced. The place and view were even better than the pictures. Alyson was so welcoming and responsive and did more than enough to make us comfortable and have everything we needed. We did not rent a car, but all beaches and restaurants were less than a 20 minute walk, though the place is up on a hill. The grocery store is a 30 minute walk, but there is a driver that can drive you there instead. We’ll definitely be coming back to Alyson’s Airbnb and would recommend it to anyone coming to Antigua!”
“Very good appartment with lovely sea view, quiet, clean .
Alyson and Tony are really friendly and helpful hosts.
20 minutes walking distance to 3 beaches . No shops near by , need a car or if you are very patient you can use the public buses .
We have really enjoyed our 12 days stays .”
“The place is amazing. The apartment was very clean and nicely furnished, with every imaginable kitchen tool. When we arrived, the host, Alison, was very kind and helpful. We had some refreshing cold drinks in the refrigerator and snacks as a welcome treat.
The view from the apartment was stunning, and it remained in the shade for most of the day, so it was not too hot.
We highly recommend staying at this wonderful place with such a lovely host!”
“Alyson and Tony were kind and wonderful hosts. Their place is clean with a beautiful view, and they are very helpful with suggestions of what to do and how to get around. Highly recommend!”
“Alyson and Tony’s place was absolutely fantastic. They let us arrive early and drop off our bags and were really helpful. As we settled in.
The Airbnb itself is up a big hill with great view of the sea. It’s easy to walk to the beach from the flat.
One of the nicest places we’ve stayed, we loved the decor, we loved the small touches and we loved the views. Highly recommended!”
“Lovely restful stay in comfortable, very well furnished and equipped apartment with private garden and a view to the sea.
The furniture is modern and comfortable, and everything is immaculately clean.
Just a few minutes drive to the most beautiful beaches on the island.
As others have mentioned, the apartment is reached by a short but very steep slope and steps. Personally, I found this a bit of a challenge, but if you're reasonably fit and healthy this shouldn't be a problem.
Alyson is a very friendly and approachable host who couldn't be more helpful.
We would have stayed longer if the days had been available.
Thank you for a happy holiday.”
“Alyson and Tony were amazing. The airbnb is beautiful. The View is amazing. The location is perfect. I can't day enough good things about this place. Trust me when I say you need to stay here. We have stayed at a lot of airbnbs and this is by far one of the best. Alyson was so responsive. Alyson and Tony love what they do and love the people that. stay. we felt at home and like family. Thank you so much Alyson and Tony.”
“We had a fantastic week staying here and would definitely recommend it! Alyson and Anthony were great hosts who could not have done more for us. The property is in a great location less than 10 mins walk to the nearest beach and around 20min walk to Jolly Harbour. There are regular buses that go to Jolly Harbour and St.Johns from the main road - you just have to wave your hand and they stop!
On walking to Jolly Harbour there are a number of restaurants on the main road - within walking distance.
The property has fantastic views and is clean and tidy and has all the amenities you could need.
Alyson provided us with a contact for a local driver who could take you to the supermarket in Jolly Harbour if needed aswell as a contact for car hire.
Overall we would definitely recommend great value for money and we’d love to return one day.”
“Antigua was wonderful. Our place was very nice it had everything we needed and more. We lived the private outside space that provided shade on the hot Days. We did not rent a car, so walking is doable but be ready for a steep climb up the hill to the apartment. We did use the local bus with no trouble except we did not see them in the evening. Two of the nicest beaches are just a short walk. Alyson and Anthony were very helpful when we needed anything, and even arranged to have a ride to get groceries on our 1st day. Excellent holiday excellent hosts and a great place to”
“everything you would want and more. immaculately presented and maintained. every item you might want was there. fantastic view and a host that did everything to make our stay a comfortable one. highly recommended”
“My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at Alyson's place. It couldn't have been more perfect. It was peaceful, private, and very clean. It is located almost across the street from one of the best beaches on the island and less than ten minutes from other top rated beaches and restaurants in either direction.
Alyson was an incredibly welcoming host. She was so friendly, and thoughtful enough to include a few drinks and snacks in the kitchen.
Five stars all the way around.”
“We stayed at Alyson’s place for a week and thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations.
First the basics - the apartment was well furnished and spotless. The kitchen was clean and had all the items that we needed. The bed was comfortable and we had plenty of room for clothing and such. Very well thought out.
But what really made the stay enjoyable was the view we had with our morning coffee and our evening drinks - simply stunning. It was so nice to have our own patio area for meals outside!
Alyson and Tony were very responsive and helpful.
We definitely recommend Alyson’s rental.”
“A truly beautiful spot with great hosts. The view is fantastic and the beach is walking distance . Well equipped accommodation with nice little touches throughout. We were able to cook and bake and consequently felt right at home. Alyson and Tony are excellent hosts . If you are looking for a special spot to relax, enjoy the views and sunshine then look no further. We will return.
Diane & David”
“we were warmly welcomed and made feel comfortable. everything was smooth. we really enjoyed our stay. can definitely recommend.”
“Excellent flat in a fantastic location, close to some of the best beaches on the island and to Jolly Harbour (restaurants, supermarket, etc.). The view from the living room is amazing and the house had all the amenities we needed (and more). Hosts were great in accomodating our requests and always available to help. Highly recommended.”
“Outstanding. Alyson and Tony were excellent hosts who made sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. The accommodation we stayed at within Valley Church was perfect. Quick access to shops, some of the best beaches on the island and great restaurants. The apartment was bright and airy, extremely well looked after and was fully stocked with everything needed. The ocean views from the apartment are stunning. I would highly recommend staying with Alyson and Tony as their attention to accommodation details was refreshing. Five stars all around.”
“This place is a gem. First off, Alyson is a great host, super responsive, always checking in and making sure you have the best stay possible. The place is extremely clean and organized; it has everything you would need for a week-long stay in Antigua. The apartment is situated on a hill facing the sea which is visible from the living space and the garden. The views are absolutely stunning, especially during sunsets. We cannot recommend this place enough. If we come to Antigua again, we will definitely be staying here!”
“Alyson and Tony have a wonderful place to stay in Antigua. The place was perfect for our couple with a very confortable apartment and a really nice view to have a meal in front of. The hosts were there for us and make our stay perfect. I recommend!”
“Our stay at Alyson & Tony’s was nothing short of fantastic. The location is wonderful, with 2 of our favorite beaches on the island on your doorstep.
Our hosts helped us to arrange a rental car, a taxi to get back to the airport, gave us the best recommendations and even drove us to the supermarket on our first afternoon.
The view from the flat is even nicer than the pictures show, we had the best time and can but thank them for some of the best hospitality we’ve had from an Airbnb. Make sure you go to this place !”
“Wow wow wow- my husband and I loved staying here. Great location with a view of the sea. There are several sandy beaches within a 10-15 minute walk. The accommodation felt spacious and incredibly well supplied with plenty of fab equipment for the kitchen, garden and beach. Alyson (and Tony) could not have been more helpful and responsive to any of our questions and seem to have thought of everything their guests could need. Lovely people and this place really felt like home for our 12 day stay. I agree with a previous review that this property is up a hill and to enjoy the area it is best to hire a car but if you don't mind a rocky road hill and some steps you can go without. We are in our 60's but managed both and absolutely loved everything about our stay. Thank you so much”
“Our stay at Alyson’s was wonderful and she’s an amazing host! As others have said, the pictures don’t do it justice. The outside space was very relaxing and the inside was as well. Everything was spotless and the bed was comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked so we ended up cooking quite a bit given the bbq was ideal for us. There are all sorts of little touches in the space that make things very easy. Recommendations in the area; if you want to try local food (extra bonus - run by women entrepreneurs), highly recommend The Fox House and Morlene’s. Plus go to the local vendors on the side of the road for the most fresh fruit and vegetables. As far as beaches, Darkwood and Ffryes are both great and recommend!”
“Alyson and Tony were very responsive. The place was clean and the view is even better in person. Close to a larger supermarket and beach. We would stay there again”
“Wir haben uns vom ersten Moment wie Zuhause gefühlt. Alles war perfekt und es fehlte uns an nichts. Vielen herzlichen Dank für alles!”
“It was our first time in Antigua, but defiantly not the last. From the very first minute we checked in, this place felt like home. It was well organized and had everything you might need to feel like you just relocated from your Canadian to Caribbean home. I mean it, from extra towels to the knitting kit, from bottle opener to cozy blankets so you can seat outside and enjoy the ocean view. If I ever relocate to Caribbean I would be happy to have the home like Alyson's and Tony's Airbnb place. Thank you Alyson and Tony to make our stay so pleasant and memorable. Hope to see you soon again!”
“This airbnb is perfect, very clean and has every thing we needed even the use of beach towels. It is situated in a very safe and quiet neighbourhood, plus it also has a gate that looks with a key. Another thing that is important to mention is their backup system. They have solar panel on the roof of their house, a big generator, and a big water reservoir. You do not need to worry about running out of water or no electricity.
One big plus for us was the fact that you could spend time outside in the shade or in the sun, almost any time of the day. There are lots of amazing beaches nearby, and Jolly Harbour is just 5 or 10 minutes drive, where you will find a grocery store, (with a banking machine inside), a pharmacy. There is also a place call Amarrs Tour in the little strip mall which sells sim cards and phone plans, and the girl was very helpful.
The owner lives above and are very quiet, and so helpful.”
“Alyson’s place was just perfect for our stay. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and she had really thought of everything - the extra touches (like sunscreen, beach mats and snacks) were lovely. Alyson was a great communicative host and was on hand but not intrusive. A lovely relaxing few days.”
“Alyson & Tony are the perfect hosts! Their place doesn’t miss any detail and it’s located on the most beautiful part of the island! They really care about their guests and their well-being.
I would 100% recommend their place to any guests!”
“This is my 2nd time visiting Antigua and my 1st time staying at this location, let’s just say it’s definitely private. The view of the water is amazing and the mood is set just right. Alyson was a great host with good communication. She provided everything that was needed promptly and even checked in on me which I really appreciated because I traveled alone. Will definitely consider “Alyson’s Place” for trip number three :)”
“Whatever you think you are getting when you book this, you are wrong... it's so much more.
The listing doesn't do this place justice. Breathtaking view, clean and comfortable. The hosts have literally thought of everything to make your stay feel like home. We would give more stars if we could!!!”
“Totally Recommend! A home away from home. A perfect place to stay for two people in Antigua. Close to everything, beautiful beaches, restaurants, supermarkets, etc. Very convenient, peaceful, relaxing and private. A spectacular view of the Caribbean sea from the living room. Extremely well kept. Can't say enough. My list is endless about this quaint spot.
Alison and Tony are amazing hosts. Always available, easy to communicate, warm, friendly and very welcoming. Everything was as described. We will definitely come back.”
“Great location, great host, great house! I highly recommend and definitely would stay again if I return to Antigua.”
“Alyson was a great host, very responsive and friendly. The apartment was very spacious, clean with lovely a deck. The nearest beach wasn't too far.”
“A beautiful modern apartment with great AC and views. It was very spacious and had all the necessary appliances.
3 stunning beaches all within 10-20 minutes walk.”
“great place to stay with beatiful veiws. Alyson was a great host and educated us on all the good local places to go.”
“Great location, nice place. Quiet location. Easy getting to many nearby beaches. Alyson was great to book with.”
“The perfect host!! I felt like I was with family. I’m new to air bnb (only my 2nd stay) and I could not have asked for a better host! The chill spot is perfect description. That’s what I had in mind for my trip to Antigua and Alyson more than delivered. I would definitely return, recommend to friends and/or bring them along with me on my next visit.”
“Superb hosts. Very nice place and great communication throughout our stay. Highly recommend”
