10/10 Exceptional

Definitely a special place

Absolutely loved this place. Not only is it very picturesque but it's got that old English charm and is steeped in history with a museum and walking trail to the Fort Berkeley, giving lovely views of the Ocean. I loved being able to take the boat across to the infinity pool which was divine and to Galleon beach. One can also take Kayaks out for a trip around the harbor.

Superb location - great service - charming rooms

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel sits within the UNESCO world heritage site of Nelsons Dockyard which creates such unique experience being surrounded by history and the warm tropical climate one hopes to find. Admirals Inn was very welcoming and comfortable as if it were a home away from home.

The Admiral’s Inn was an excellent stop in our Antiguan vacation. The property is exceptional and full of the island’s history. Other than the grounds crew getting early starts to their chores, the stay was quaint and quiet. The surrounding Nelson’s Dockyard area is awesome! Take the short hike to Fort Berkley for incredible views. We had a beautiful meal at the on site restaurant for our anniversary. Another night we walked the short distance to town for a local meal. Overall I highly recommend this hotel to anyone!

Step back into 18th century seafaring England and enjoy an important port in the West Indies! The historical preservation of historical structures with just enough modern comfort makes this a one of a kind place to stay!

10/10 Exceptional

The Admiral’s Inn gives us a wraparound Antigua welcome! We’ve stayed there before but this time we were delayed and had missed our dinner reservation… but if it was a problem, the staff were still as charming as ever, the dinner was delicious and our room, number7, had been renovated to a high standard since our last trip. All wonderful, thank you!

The Admiral's Inn and Gunpowder Suites provided an unforgettable start to our honeymoon in Antigua. The customer service was exceptional—warm, attentive, and incredibly accommodating. The property itself was charming and impeccably maintained, offering a perfect blend of comfort and elegance. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to begin our journey. Highly recommended!

One of the best hotel experiences I've had in my life. I have traveled extensively around the world, and this hotel was perfect. Excellent quality and price. The staff was just amazing and our room was extremely clean and beautiful. I will definitely be going back in the next few years!

10/10 Exceptional

A certified UNESCO site that we got to sleep at. What an incredible adventure. We stayed in the loft and it was worth the extra to have the lovely sitting room that opened up right int the harbor. Highly recommend this place. And be sure to grab a table in front of the sea near the kitchen where you can watch the fish and sting rays hunt!
