This is a very luxurious resort with elegance, the food was fantastic, and the staff is well trained, courteous,and professional even the ground crews. The resorts has three restaurants which is a dining experience. You have a choice of beach side dining to fine dining at the Cove restaurant. The accommodations are spacious, impeccably clean with turned down service. The view is breathtaking. We are looking forward to our retuned visit

The entire staff was incredibly friendly! Wonderful, small luxury resort with a beautiful setting. The owner lives on property and is seen around the resort working/overseeing the daily routine. The staff knew it was my birthday and everyone made me feel special. The food was wonderful. We loved the Cove. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious!

Property is nice and the staff is helpful. Food is good however if your gonna classify your resort as all inclusive, don’t up charge for premium liquor. Looks cheap. The rates that are charged can suffice better choices of liquor that you include. It’s a great location on the island.

Everything about Blue Waters is top shelf! I can’t say enough good things about the staff. They made me feel SO welcome. The interior design is beautiful - I stayed in a Cove Suite which had a stunning view of the sea and a semiprivate pool which was a wonderful amenity. The food was delicious - beautifully presented and so good. Highly recommend this resort and I hope to visit again.

Perfect Spot for Family Vacation
Blue Waters was the perfect spot for our family spring vacation trip. Big enough to have the infrastructure and services of a larger resort but small enough to feel intimate. Staff was fantastic and the resort never felt crowded. Food was excellent, especially the Cove.

A nice stay
We had a wonderful stay - the hotel was beautiful and maintained to the highest standard, the beaches (although they had seaweed) were wonderful, and the service by all of the staff could not be faulted at any point. The Elemis items in the bathroom were a real treat and the water bottles were a great added extra. The only issue we had was that on multiple evenings, only 1 restaurant was open for dinner out of the 3 - it was understandable with covid and capacity levels, but we were not blown away by the food at the Palm (good, but not worth the cost) and so being forced to eat there was disappointing. I am very pleased we didn't pay the extra $250pp/pn for all inclusive as I'm not sure it would have been worth it.

Zero vip access benefits. We did receive a nice bottle of champagne cookies and chocolate as an apology for a non functional room that we were given initially. Covid test is a price gauging $70 per person $280 for 4. No resort credit of 20 per night received as mentioned

From Nicole, Winsia, Tario, Saron, Jason, Jesse, Pearle, etc. we found individuals committed to providing an exceptional guest experience. Additionally, we were delighted and surprised to have the opportunity to spend quality time with the owner of the resort and his beautiful family (Gary and Buzz). They are kind people who care deeply about their guests and ensuring a first class bespoke experience. Cannot wait to return...

always a lovely place but service can be off
We stayed in a suite in Cove Villas, a quiet lovely room with a nice patio and sea view. Blue Waters has always been my favorite on the north of the island, even the service could be not as good as expected given the cost and the reputation. This time our villas manager promised a few items and NEVER delivered, nor got back to us that she could not provide them. She simply disappeared after her first introduction upon our arrival, never to return. We did not bothered to call a second time after nobody seemed to know what we were talking about on the first follow-up call. We drove to buy the items ourselves, they were items usually offered in 4/5 star hotels. The day we were checking out, the manager of there hotel was very accommodating, shame that I had some matters to attend and was not able to meet her in person. The rest of the staff in the hotel can either be warm and hospitable the good old West Indian way or the opposite, cold and grumpy.

This resort is splendid. We stayed in a villa so only shared the infinity pool with 6 other couples. The food was wonderful, but the menus of the higher end restaurants didn’t vary while we were there. This is not the place to go for snorkeling however.

When my wife and I arrived at Blue Waters Resort, we could see that we have booked into luxury. The staff on arrival we so pleasant, bringing cold flannels to cool us down after a long trip from UK - an excellent gesture and making us relaxed straight away. Another great little touch was that we were given re-useable water bottles to refill as and when needed. The aim of this : Blue Waters will achieve their dream to be the 1st Resort in Antigua to eradicate plastic bottles, awesome vision. Breakfast - Amazing, fantastic, superb- All of these words would describe the selections of choice on offer. There’s full English to a massive selection for us Vegetarians. Choose how you would like your eggs (fried, omelette, poached, scrambled) all cooked fresh by the great chefs awaiting your selection...and not forgetting the Champagne, a true bonus to enjoy the panoramic view from the "Palm" restaurant. Views from our room were fantastic - Beach view Room. The facilities in the room were excellent. The choice of pools was amazing, we used the Adult Pool - very relaxing, and with the brilliant "Carolyn" catering for your every need by bringing drinks to you as and when you need. The "Cove" restaurant was fully booked during our stay, but if you like Asian food try "Bartley’s". Delicious. There’s no other way to finish this review by mentioning the Staff - Last but in NO WAY LEAST, - an ultimate team of staff who will make your stay brilliant. Thank you, guys, and see you next year.

The BEST thing about this resort is the impeccable service. Every staff member that I encountered was extremely pleasant. respectful and attentive to any needs/questions that I had. The rooms are clean and all have an amazing view with a balcony/porch. Bathrooms are very spacious. The food was flavorful and tasted great - restaurants had variety food choices.
