"The good-
We stayed in one of the royal palm rooms on the beach and it was beautiful. Mini split ac kept room very comfortable, nice bed and bathroom and the location on the beach was perfect. Entire resort feels very private and not crowded in any way. The views were amazing, the water was amazing, and the beachfront dinner was AMAZING(beyond worth the upgrade). The daily maid service was awesome great, leaving our room perfect everyday. Anyone saying the royal palm rooms were a far walk must be elderly and just not want to walk at all. From our room to the pool/main restaurant was literally a 2 min walk.
The not so good-
About 30-40% of the staff was friendly. The rest seemed like they did not want to be there and seemed like you were bothering them if you asked for anything. The explanation of how food works or what’s included was non existent. It took us the first 2 days of asking various staff and figuring it out for ourselves. The food itself was a 5/10. Not bad, but was edible sometimes. There is no 24/7 snack area or pool bar or beach bar. The bars are located in the restaurants.
Overall-
If you want a quiet relaxing beautiful place to unwind this is it. If you want to be pampered and have better food and amenities, this isn’t the resort for you."
Royalton Antigua, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort
8/10 Good
"The property is gorgeous. The people are so kind and helpful. However, the food is not good. There’s no Caribbean flavors the food they do have taste bland."
"Stayed there April 2026. My 3rd visit.Right on the beach close to amenities. Property well maintained. Great view. Nice small swimming pool .Small shop which sells a few but not all products for self catering. .20 minute drive from airport. 10 minute drive from St.Johns. Supermarket 5 minutes drive. Hope to return"
Royalton CHIC Antigua, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort – Adults Only
8/10 Good
"The Royalton CHIC is a stunning resort, however there is room for improvement.
The check in and check out staff were abrupt and not at all what would be expected of a Front of Service. I felt rushed at check in and 3 inexperienced young ladies were all speaking at once. No real happy friendly hello. On check out staff member was abrupt and again not what would be expected of a 5 star hotel.
The unsung heroes were the cleaners, maintenance staff and gardeners. They kept the Resort immaculate.
Superb choice of Restaurants but Elements buffet, apart from breakfast choice was poor, so make sure you reserve at Hunters, Olympus, Vespa, Haven.
There needs to be more sun Parasols. Enough beds but not enough shade."
"Everything was outstanding…property was beautiful and well maintained, staff were all very friendly and helpful ( special shout to Tiquesha the concierge who helped us plan all our dinner reservations and chartered snorkeling/boat trip). Beach and pools were spectacular and the restaurants had great food and selections. Will definitely be back again!"
