Rumrunner is a very clean and well maintained villa equipped to a high standard, located in a quiet, residential part of the resort with friendly neighbours on both sides. On clear days we could see the volcano on Montserrat from the villa balcony, smoking away in the distance (30 miles), and providing very interesting cloud formations - especially at sunset! Antigua is a great holiday destination, for sea, sun and sand, but like anywhere tropical beware of the mosquitoes and sand flies! A car or buggy is recommended. We very much enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning soon. S, D and K, UK Dec 2009 / Jan 2010

 

 

Wonderful Holiday Andrew and Maggie High Wycombe, UK Review Submitted: January 26, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009 We cannot believe that our holiday in Antigua is already over. We had a wonderful time. "Rumrunner" is a lovely, comfortable villa in a stunning location and we felt immediately at home. We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending the villa to our friends and family. JoAnn and your Canadian and English neighbours were very friendly and helpful. We hired a golf cart for most of our stay. This was invaluable for getting around Jolly Harbour and great fun too! A bus ride into St. John's is a real experience as was the boat trip to Barbuda - both 'white knuckle' rides! Hiring a car (4 x 4) for a few days proved very successful and allowed us to see most of island's highlights. We fell in love with Antigua and have returned to the UK with hundreds of photographs, video footage and lots of wonderful memories to keep us going until, hopefully, we can go back

 

 

Family vacation jeroen&bernadette rockaway nj Review Submitted: February 10, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009 We stayed a week at the rumrunner and we absolutely loved it. Our family consisted of My wife and I our 3 kids and my in-laws. The villa had all we needed and then some.We cooked out some nights on the patio and the provided bbq, the restaurants were a stone drop away. I recommend the rental of a golfcart to maximize your vacation time. The villa was extrodinary clean and well maintained with all the amenities.The beach was excellent and the community pool was tranquil and quiet.Overall one of the best vacations we have had with the whole family.

Rumrunner, Jolly Harbour, Antigua Alfie & Maggie Oswestry, Shropshire Review Submitted: March 10, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009 Excellent property, very comfortable and very well equiped. Owners very helpful and had provided many extras, good well equiped kitchen, good air conditioning. Nice rear patio area overlooking harbour provides a very relaxing area with large gas BBQ if required. Quite a walk to the shops so car (or golf buggy) essential. Would reccommend a car as the charms of Jolly Harbour wear thin very quickly! Very busy restauranuts providing average food at above average prices. Car required to visit excellent beaches nearby for great snorkelling. Half Moon bay beach was our favourite. A must is Shirley Heights on Sunday night v.good steel band, BBQ etc. Quite hard to find good local food as most restaurants cater for mainly American tastes .

 

 

sun fun and rum mattorama Vancouver Island Review Submitted: January 11, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2008 This was my 2nd year staying at the Rumrunner, although this year myself and a buddy split our time between Antigua and Montserrat. Two totally different places but a great combo. Rumrunner seems to be very well looked after, very clean and nicely updated with new bathrooms and fully equiped kitchen. Spent most days on the amazing white sand beach and the evenings drinking (to much) while playing pool and darts with the locals at the Dog Watch Pub. Best night of our trip was Sunday night up at Shirley Heights, need to taxi to get there but it is well worth the trip. Also a must do while you are down there is the circumnavigation (boooze cruise) around the island, a GREAT day! Renting a golf cart was the best way to get around Jolly Harbour, but make sure you look out for the speed bumps and security gards at night!! Awesome vacation, definatly will be back to Rumrummer!!

 

 

Wow. The Dog Watch rules!! From beginning to end utterly awesome! The Caribbean is the best. The ocean is warm and the colour amazing. The beach is second to none. Try the boat tour around the Island. Villa Rumrunner is very special and the ensuite bathrooms great for us girls. We met many people from around the world. The German boys were very special. Thank you so much! Can't wait to return! C. Canada.

 

FABULOUS

 

What an amazing time! Our holiday was action packed, with everything at our doorstep. Jolly Harbour is wonderful for all age groups. The silver sandy beaches and warm Caribbean ocean was everything we dreamt of. The colours are amazing. The accommodation at Villa Rumrunner is superb, everything is new. Thank you so much. We will be back! Katie Gray. Canada. September 2006.

 

 

Exceptional Villa, fantastic loaction! liverpool lady Liverpool, England Review Submitted: October 7, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008 I have absolutly no complaints about our stay at Rumrunner, Jolly Harbour. The villa is emaculate, spotless and all applicances are new. The views from the jetty are stunning and the deck gets the sun nearly all day long. The villa is idealy located in Jolly Harbour which has it's own onsite ammenties and is also a short taxi/car ride to the captital of St Johns. Jolly Beach is fabulous, crystal clear waters and soft white sand. All in all I would recommend staying here to each and everyone. The only advice I would give is that you hire a golf buggy to get around the harbour if you are not going to hire a car. We hired one and for a very reasonable rate and it made getting about much quicker and easier.

 

 

Comments: If you are looking at Jolly Harbour look no further, great unit, great beds, and a beautiful view. I have rented a lot of homes and condos, this unit was the cleanest and best kept I have ever rented. Great location on island.

 

 

Firstly, my apologies for not contacting you earlier since our return - a poor excuse, but work has been extremely hectic. Anyhow I wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay at your villa in Antigua. Our only complaint was the speed in which the week disappeared. Please send our thanks to JoAnn who was very helpful on a couple of occasions. Also, thanks to you or JoAnn for the bottles of beer, water and cans of soft drinks in the fridge when we arrived - much appreciated. Now it's time to knuckle down to the great British winter and dream of warm sunny days in the future
