 Sandals Antigua
I too was on a cruise ship that stopped at Antigua. Becasue the ship was
there so long we took a cab out to the Hawksbill beach resort. It looked
like a very nice all-inclusive resort, but there is nothing close by so you
have to take a taxi anywhere else. Some locals and day visitors like us
used the beach too, but it was not crowded at all. The only negative was
that there were some large rocks at the waters edge that made wading out a
somewhat risky adventure with the surf wanting to knock you over. This was
not so bad at the closest beach as it was at the far end. (There are 4
coves, with the farthest being clothing optional.) As I said the Hawksbill
was nice, but probably not as fancy as Sandals (never been there - only seen
ads).
