Important Information Before You Travel
Be Cautious During Hurricane Season.
The prime time to visit Antigua is typically from December to April, during the dry season. Travelers are generally advised to steer clear of the period from August to October, which falls within hurricane season. Although prices might be lower during this time, it's wise to purchase travel insurance as a precaution.
Antigua is Unique.
Antigua in the Caribbean is distinct from Antigua, the historic city located in Guatemala. Ensure you know which Antigua you're researching.
Pay Attention to the Details.
While a resort may claim to be all-inclusive, it's important to verify what that really includes. Look for potential limits on alcohol brands, menu selections, spa treatments, or activities covered in the all-inclusive deal.
