We were pleased with our stay at Jolly Beach. Beach was beautiful and accessible. Rooms are outdated but we didnt spend much time there besides sleeping and changing clothes. Pool was nice and the drinks were strong especially the rum punch. Food didnt disappoint, I was pleasantly surprised that the buffet was delicious and themed every night. I would have given this place 5 out of 5 but the staff isnt all friendly. I tipped when I had cash on hand and I tried to make conversation but staff doesnt care to get to know the customer. They do have tours available that you can purchase with the hotel. There are a few restaurants near the hotel and a supermarket that is walking distance from the hotel so that is convenient if you need something.

Our favorite all-inclusive resort at Antigua!

We stayed five nights the Jolly Beach resort after spending three nights at the Royalton for a family wedding. Even though the Royalton is more of a “Luxury Resort”, we found Jolly Beach Resort to be more accommodating for our family. From the dining Options and extended hours, to the wonderful large beach, the excellent Pina colada in the cute cats roaming the property, with thoroughly enjoyed his resort and highly recommended for a relaxed, simple vacation.

The hotel is very unique, in a world of high end upscale resorts, The Jolly is like a step back in time. The rooms are definitely not plush, and are not the biggest rooms, but the view makes it worth while. The rooms grow on you and by the end of our stay, we really loved our little room. The television service leaves a lot to be desired, and the nightlife is nothing to brag about. The food was pretty good, the Pizza Factory is very nice and has great service. All in all, we would go back, the ocean view and the non crowded beach are the true jewels of The Jolly!

Jolly Beach, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Let me start off by saying this resort was an incredible value for the price we paid. First impression upon arrival was an older looking building with an even older sign and awning, underwhelmed. The check in area was nice, clean, and comfortable. The arrival process was seamless and reasonably fast. The room was on the smaller side to accommodate the king bed. It was noticeably dated and in need of some cosmetic repair. Unlike most travelers, all I care about is a clean comfortable bed and working AC. The room had both. The noise from the hallway carried easily into the room, but the resort wasn’t packed so it was negligible. Food options were limited. The buffet was average at best. Breakfast was the most complete meal with a variety of breads, meats, fruits and vegetables. There was also an egg made to order and omelet station. The pizza place, the resorts only sit down a la carte restaurant exceeded expectations. While the pizzas were very good, it was their other meals that stole the show. From fresh fish to grilled steak, we never had a bad meal here. The best part of the resort was the beach. The soft coral white sand beach stretches as far as you can see. We spent the majority of our time just lounging on the chairs. Overall, it was no where near the nicest place I’ve ever stayed. However The staff were friendly, the food was decent, and the drinks were flowing. We’ll be back next year!
