Antigua, like the rest of the Caribbean is cricket mad. The season runs from February to July and the island boasts a brand new ground, the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. The old ground, (The Recreation Ground) is in the centre of the capital, St Johns and both are well worth a visit. The island is quite small, only being 14 miles by 11 miles but it also has a third cricket ground called the Sticky Wicket situated within the airport complex. You will see this when you arrive at the airport. Sticky Wicket has a fine restaurant and bar. On your return home you can check your bags in at the departure desk and walk over to the Sticky Wicket to wait for your plane.

Guest comments
'Our stay in Antigua was made very special by our accommodation. Spacious apartment, fully equipped kitchen, 2 large en-suite bedrooms, beautifully appointed furnishings, lovely beach - 5 minutes away, sunny pool - only the two of us in it, pick up and transport to and from apartment - spot on. What joy! Can't wait to return.' – Regards Alan (UK).
'The apartment exceeded our expectations for our first Caribbean experience. It was spacious, well equipped, comfortable and well appointed. The pool was fantastic and we enjoyed sitting on the veranda for breakfast and evening drinks and barbecues. There was a good range of restaurants in the area, Indian, Italian etc, and we were never lost for somewhere to eat out. Yasmin was very helpful and the airport transfers went like a dream. Will be in touch to re-book. Can't come soon enough.' - Rachel and Michael. (UK).
