Pares Holidays from AU$1,007

Lovely Caribbean feel right in the heart of the Falmouth Harbor sailing scene. Gorgeous four poster platform bed with old world feel. Be aware that parking would be a problem, but we didn’t drive - cabs are easy to get. It is set on a steep hill so unless you stay in the main building you need to be able to negotiate the inclines. Finally, windows are just louvers and screens, not glass so the minisplit AC helps with cooling but not true air con.

Pros: The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was good overall. The rooms were modern and the plunge pool was cool although it was always pretty cold. BBQ night was great. Cons: The nearby beach was awful and not worth visiting. Lots of mosquito bites when eating at dining area even with bugspray. You can only get food during certain scheduled times and there's no buffet option. Sometimes the food portions were really small. You have to take taxis everywhere and they're not cheap because most places including the capital city are at least 30 mins away. The toilet closet wall does not extend all the way to the ceiling, so there's no privacy when using the restroom in your room. Overall, I would not recommend staying here.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hodges. The room and hotel grounds were immaculate. The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The spa treatment was great; the breakfast buffet was a great way to start the day. There were multiple options daily. I would say their restaurants need a bit of work. It would be nice to have some Antiguan dishes on the menu. I would definitely stay at this property again however I’d eat lunch and dinner off property.

Lovely views, great and friendly staff. Very accommodating and thoughtful. A bit rustic but all round excellent. My wife and I had an amazing anniversary there. They took great care of us and made it a special day. Only negative is, depending on your room, you may have to walk up a steep incline to get to your room. We did not mind but it’s good to know in advance.

Beautiful resort. Some of the best beaches we have ever seen. Staff were so helpful and friendly. It was very quiet when we were there at the end of October but I guess that’s just the season. We had. 2 bedroom/2 bathroom suite with lounge diner and wraparound balcony. The accommodation was immaculately clean and cleaned twice daily. We’d recommend it.
