Jan 23, 2026Nice stay but all inclusive isn’t for us
This was our first visit to an all inclusive. We discovered that AI is not our vibe but we enjoyed the PBC. Our arrival at PBC did not start well. The security guard could not find our name on the “list” despite showing her our confirmation. It took several minutes and finally we were allowed to enter. When we got to reception we had to “pre-check in” by using a QR code. We went through the drill and completed the form which was redundant because this information was already in our reservation record. When we stepped over to the front desk, the clerk asked if we had done the pre-check. There was no one else in the lobby and she watched us do it! There was no welcome, offer of a cool drink, hand towel. We were also informed if we did not return both key cards we would be charged. It was such an awkward check in. Definitely not the friendly welcome we expected. We were thrilled with our 2nd floor waterfront room. We had great views of fishing pelicans each day. Despite being recently renovated, the bathrooms were not 100% finished- not a big deal but don’t expect perfection. The wall hairdryer wasn’t hung; caulking on the fixtures and floor; missing trim boards. Our housekeeper, Jermie, was excellent. She greeted us each day with a bright smile and hello. Our room was spotless. Our impression with the food was a focus on quantity over quality. There were plenty of options but nothing that blew us away. There was a lot of seafood the night of the beach bbq and for the Mediterranean buffet. The waitstaff was fantastic- very attentive. Suggestions: Take a travel clothesline to hang up your wet clothes/swimsuits. There is a small drying rack on the deck but it is small. Make your dinner reservations when you arrive. I only knew about this from the Friends of PBC forum. We were allowed to make reservations for all nights but for the first 3 nights the only time slots were 9PM. You can only eat at the Pineapple Grille 2x during the week. The same applies to Pietros. Grab your beach towels in the morning -they tend to run out before beach chairs. If it is windy they do not put up umbrellas out of concern they will blow over. There was some sargassum -The ground crew tries to keep up with it. If you are looking for quiet, check out the “Quiet” pool area. It is peaceful and protected from the wind but seats fill up early. Do not miss the coffee shop! Highlight of our trip…the staff is super friendly and genuine. If you are an animal lover bring some treats. Ginger and her friends will be delighted! Bring a refillable water bottle. There are several water refill stations & the drinking water is really good. Bring an insulated cup for your mixed drinks. Adjust your expectations- no top shelf liquor (eg Gordons is the gin served), 1 local beer on tap. Check out the 1/2 day tour with Pink Panther-Anna and Joy were great and shared lots of history and information about Antigua. Tipping….always a conundrum! We tipped but did not see others tipping regularly.

Jan 23, 2026Antigen hospitality at its best
Just came back from a 10 day holiday at the PBC. It was FANTASTIC!!! The staff are excellent always smiling and can’t do enough for you. The food is excellent considering it’s all inclusive. We went to the italian which was nice and also the pineapple grill which also was great. We also went to the steakhouse where you have to pay $50pp. The steak was so tasty we had a T-bone and you also get top notch cocktails which are better than you get in the mongoose bar. I did struggle however to find an alcoholic beverage that i really liked. The raspberry mojito was my favourite. But as a bourbon drinker i found it hard to like the bourbon they supplied. Shout out to Nicole. Ann Marie made the best omelette every morning. Tbh i can’t wait to go back, Maybe in a couple of years hopefully 🤞🏻

Top notch resort
We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of this all inclusive resort. The staff were smiling, helpful, and made sure everything was terrific. The grounds and gardens were immaculately cared for. The beach was beautiful with comfortable chairs and drinks delivered right to the beach chairs. Food was stellar with menu changes nightly. Daily activity schedules with the Fun Squad led tours or played beach games. Shereef knew the history of the island and was energetic all day long. Katie Ann was a happy energetic server who was always quietly singing. The quiet but smiling Kianjah made top notch smoothies every morning for breakfast. On The weekend the staff set up the beach with lights, balloons, tables, and a feast and music for all the guests.

We Love PBC!
We just returned from an 8 day trip to PBC- the resort is wonderful! Our oceanfront room was recently renovated, and has stunning views of the bay. The resort is compact but never felt crowded. The dining options were great, and they offered plenty of activities and entertainment. The standout though, is the staff! Anika in reception, is a gem! She went out of her way to make our visit special! Tina,Annetta, and Renee, in the coffee shop are THE BEST!! They took such good care of us. Tieniqua at Topaz was so sweet, and we just loved her! Also Jarmie (sp?) in housekeeping made sure our room was perfect every day. We loved getting to know all of you- thank you for making our stay so special- we will be back!

Jan 17, 2026Relaxing and beautiful resort
The beach is gorgeous. White sandy beach and water had calm waves. Definitely a great location to relax and recharge. Fun night entertainment but this is Not a party resort, which I liked. Food was good but not excellent. Service was good but not especially friendly. Staff seemed unhappy… Coffee shop always had yummy desserts and great service. Coffee staff was the friendliest. Wallace made the best lattes. Rooms were very clean and housekeeping staff was friendly. We were in a waterfront room. Most gorgeous view. Balcony was big and perfect for chilling out.
