What Our Guests Say

"While Seatons may be a bit remote, it makes for an excellent base to explore the island. The inn is VERY tidy with good amenities and the service is outstanding. The owners can provide you with a rental car for a very good price and go out of their way to make you feel welcome and help in organizing whatever you may need. Excellent choice for a couple on a budget from Germany. Stayed December 2013- Trip Advisor."

"On very short notice, I decided to go to Antigua for 4 days by myself. I generally avoid the large resorts and prefer cozy, friendly places with real people. Ellen Bay Inn was perfect for me, even traveling by myself. Louie picked me up at the airport, and Genivive cooked me two wonderful evening meals and light breakfasts. One day I rented a bike and rode it to Devils Bridge. Another day I took the public bus into St. Johns. My room was simple but quite comfortable. The A/C really works well, and the free WiFi is tops. If you do not have to stay right on the beach, and you do not want the usual all-inclusive tourist place, this small inn is great."
