Unforgettable Gardens

Antigua


Ron and Dinah's wedding business may seem an unusual place to lay your head, but they have three excellent-value, sparkling clean rooms that share a long verandah overlooking their garden and the hillside in the distance. Go for the slightly pricier, far bigger rooms, which both have a simple kitchenette, rather than the smaller and rather cramped middle room.
