Olivette was an amazing place to stay and truly experience Antigua!

Olivette is a beautiful house on a secluded beach that truly helped us accomplish our goal of disconnecting from the real world and enjoying our family. The greeting by Lenard at the airport was a wonderful touch. We rented a car and followed him to the grocery store and then to the house which was a nice way to get oriented to the island. Coffee on the balcony every morning while listening to the waves and watching the ocean was a great way to start the day. Highly recommend the Sunday evening barbecue at Shirley Heights, Stingray City, and snorkeling at Half Moon Bay Beach and Galleon Bay. We saw so many amazing things underwater from stingrays to starfish to sea turtles to octopus to hundreds of beautiful fish. The secluded beach under Olivette is great for hunting seashells and going out at night with flashlights to see the crabs moving around. We had a wonderful week here and highly recommend it. For us, this experience was much preferred to truly experience Antigua over a resort.

Great Views!!!!

Villa Olivette was a perfect little villa to rent in Old Road Antigua. It’s up a rocky off the beat old road and sits in a peninsula overlooking the hills, cliffs and sea. Eating breakfast daily on the veranda looking at the wildlife with the warm sea breeze in your hair keeping you cool was perfection. The villa is well equipped and beautifully looked after by Leonard and his team. It was immaculate and comfortable with simple furnishings and decor and many extras were provided that were not expected in a self catering villa, such a toilet roll and some washing powder, squeeze etc. The villa is very pleasant, but it’s the location that really sells it. Old Road itself is like much of the rest of Antigua, old, simple, shabby and charming. The locals were very friendly as we either walked or drove past them daily; everyone waves hello no matter their age. However, the villa is totally private and sits in beautifully tended gardens with stunning flowering bushes and the turquoise sea beckoning. Leonard could not have been a more accommodating manager; he even rescued us one evening when our car broke down which was well and above his requirement to do so. Judith the owner, equally lovely to talk to, has chosen th right person to look after her special home. We highly recommend this villa for anyone wishing to holiday in Antigua.

Couldn"t asked for better house with a view to die for

Beautiful house. Stayed for 12 days and wish we had 12 more. From the meeting@ the airport to the final day,Leonard was there if we needed him. I would recommend this house to anyone. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Leigh and Kathleen.

Gorgeous views. Always a nice breeze. The breaking surf outside your door.

Accommodations were very nice. We stayed for several weeks and the place felt like Home. Any thing we needed or had questions about were handled promptly by the on island manager, Lenard.

I hope we can return some day

Fantastic Views!

We had a great time at this home to say the least! Only issue was the driveway into the property. Very rough and steep, but, once you get to the house you tend to forget about that driveway. Home is very comfortable. We enjoyed the pelicans diving for dinner most afternoons. This is truly a diamond in the rough! Yes, a car is needed here! We were a 15 min drive to Jolly Harbour for restaurants, 7 miles. Price paid for this one was on the low side. It is well worth more for sure!! Thanks so much to Tracy who met us at the airport and Lenard, the property manager, was available anytime and was very friendly and helpful.

This home, due to it's location, would be perfect for guests that stay home at night and make their dinner in. I did not care for the night time driving.

The little beach that is there is too rough to go swimming, but, has treasures to find on it. Like sea glass and shells.

All of the other reviews have said it all. Nothing negative to report here, just a great home to rent and enjoy!!!!

Thank You to Judith for allowing us to stay here!

This property is a solo property (not a resort type property, so there are no services onsite) but we are in the tourism belt of Antigua where there are many attractions and services within a 10-15 minute drive.

Due to the close proximity to Jolly Harbor most service (ATM/Bank, Shopping, Groceries, Car Rentals, Posts, Pharmacy, Fitness Center, Golf, Restaurants, Boat Rentals, Marina, Sailing etc.) can be acquired there.

Day passes to the nearby (5 minutes drive) to 5-Star Hotels of Curtain Bluff and Carlisle Bay Resorts can provide similar resort type services.

Island tours and excursions (Safari tours, kayaking, canoeing, zip line canopy, rainforest tours, biking tours, etc. can be acquired from local vendors and the owners would love to make some recommendations that will make your visit all you want it to be.
