WOW!!! My mother had an amazing birthday trip, she will not stop talking about it! I will provide a breakdown while trying not to sound long-winded :) I met so many amazing people!! I will be honest! The review might be long with names, but I have to shout out, all the amazing staff who made my vacation so memorable! Please be mindful that I came in June 2024 when the resort just opened. It's only 45 days old. With that being said, my mom and I went during their trial and error, working out the kinks and learning. Even so, this was hands down one of the best experiences we have had!!!!!! It was not as crowded, only opening at 30-60% capacity but I HAD A BLAST!! I AM ALREADY BOOKING TO COME BACK!!! Cons first (There are not many!) ROOMS- There were not a lot of cons honestly. Only the room bathrooms do not have soap or towel holders. When you take a shower, you have to place your washcloth, body wash, or sponge on the floor. I did not like that very much. Having to keep bending down to get my body wash. The showers are a little small but not bad. Restaurant- The buffet restaurant is very small and there were not a lot of options. We went once and did not go back, the fruit was severely hot, and there were not a lot of selections. There are a few restaurants, but they run on a schedule. Some are open on some days. The buffet was closed every day for dinner time. (Even though some restaurants were closed on certain days, the good thing is you never needed a reservation! For some resorts, you have to reserve ahead of time. This may change when they are at 100% capacity, but it was convenient to never have to wait for a table!!!) Sports Bar is small, at first glance you would think it’s no room to dance but they will move the tables! You will have a blast!!! PROS!!! HANDS DOWN THE STAFF! THE STAFF MADE THE TRIP AMAZING! WHEN YOU GET THERE, YOU WILL SEE! VIBE TEAM/ENTERTAINMENT LET ME GIVE THE ENTERTAINMENT MANAGER HIS FLOWERS! HE WAS VERY NICE AND KEPT JOKING AROUND WITH HIS TEAM! IT LOOKS LIKE A FAMILY ENVIRONMENT. I HAVE BEEN TO ROYALTON CHIC BRAND BEFORE AND THIS STAFF IS HANDS DOWN TOP TIER! FIRST AND FOREMOST, DJ STOOKIE IS THE MAN!!!! YOU WILL DANCE ALL DAY!! GO TO THE SPORTS BAR AT NIGHT! DJ BERROA WAS AMAZING AS WELL!!! THESE TWO DJS HAD EVERYONE DANCING ALL NIGHT/DAY! THE ENTERTAINMENT WAS GREAT! THE BAND LOS FULANOS WAS ENTERTAINING! SOMETIMES THEY WOULD LAUGH DURING THEIR SET MAKING EVERYONE FEEL LIKE FAMILY AND LAUGH ALONG. THE LEAD SINGER JOHNTHAN CAN SING! I ENJOYED HIS COVERS AND KEEPING THE STAFF ENGAGED. HIS BAND!!!! THAT SAXSPHONE!!! TALENT! ONE THING I CAN SAY, IS ROYALTON CHIC ANTIGUA HANDS DOWN HAS GREAT DJS AND LIVE BANDS!!!!! IF THIS IS WHAT THEY DO AT 30-60% CAPACITY I KNOW IN A YEAR IT WILL BE EVEN BETTER! NADIA- WAS THE BEST!! SHE MADE SURE WE WERE ENGAGED IN THE POOL AND KEPT THE ENERGY GOING!! NADIA CAME UP WITH SO MANY FUN INTERACTIVE ACTIVITIES! KEITHROY AND TIMOTHY- BOTH BROTHERS AND BOTH WILL HAVE YOU MO
