Yepton Estate Cottages

It was great over all but you have to have a rental car. Basic but very good. Have the most beautiful beach on the island near by- Deep Bay Beach. There is a guy there on the beach that cooks you a fish that he just caught in the ocean. Also, there is a nice short but challenging track to Fort Barrington with a breathtaking view on the Bay.

Lovely yellow cottage Sent 4 emails before arrival and gotno reply. Decent cottage, comfortable bed, good shower. Sadly no helpful information about getting around, nearest places to eat etc. Pool small, but lovely after a hot day. Used bus and taxi to get around. Be prepared for very noisy tree frogs at night.

Excellent value for price as compared to the resorts on the island. Adorable cottages with all the comforts of home right on the water and within walking distance of a secluded beach. Great internet and cable TV.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at the Yepton Estate Cottages while we attended a surgical conference in St. John. The conference was held at the Royalton Antigua, an all-inclusive resort located within walking distance of the cottages. In addition to being far more affordable than lodging at the Royalton, the Yepton Estate Cottages offered privacy and peacefulness that are difficult to find at a large commercial resort. We also received excellent attention and customer service from the owners, Gabriela and Douglas. Whether it was a restaurant recommendation or assistance with taxi service, they were always happy to assist us. If we decide to return to Antigua, we would definitely return to Yepton Estate Cottages. We enjoyed having a living area, kitchenette, and private porch. One of our favorite parts of the trip was mixing our cocktails in the kitchen and unwinding on our private patio as we overlooked the pool and lagoon. From the picturesque view to the sounds of local wildlife, we truly felt immersed in the natural surroundings. We are so grateful to Gabriela, Douglas, and the wonderful team of medical professionals from Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre. You all made our first visit to Antigua so special and we are already looking forward to a return visit!

Yepton Estate was a perfect match for what we needed for our 4-day stay in Antigua. Our cottage was very quiet, clean, with an extremely comfortable bed and a very well equipped kitchen as well as strong Wi-Fi. The property is a bit off the beaten path, so having a car is a necessity if you want to get around. We did have a rental car and explored the island from there. There is a small beach within walking distance although we never found it due to a miscommunication but there are plenty of accessible beaches elsewhere. There is only one small restaurant within a short drive. For everything else you need to drive into St. John’s. Fortunately the manager had advised us in advance to stop for groceries on the way from the airport. There are plenty of supermarkets on that way. Overall we had a very pleasant visit to Antigua and Yepton Estate.

As a seasoned traveller, the past two years of prohibitive travel restrictions and uncertainty have been challenging. For my first and much needed holiday I wanted to find somewhere which met two conditions: a quiet and self-contained accommodation, and access to uncrowded beaches with tropical waters. At Yepton Estate Cottages, I found this and so much more. Your hosts Gabriela and Douglas are two of the nicest people I have ever met, and could not do enough for me, whilst simultaneously ensuring I had the privacy and space that I was seeking. From the moment of my arrival, I was welcomed like family and Gabriela drove me personally to the nearest supermarket to help me stock up on provisions for my first few days. I was then free to enjoy the nearby beaches (the closest - Yepton Beach, is less than ten minutes on foot), and mostly to just enjoy the tranquility which I was craving after the toll of the Pandemic. My cottage had everything I could possibly need, and the deck overlooking the salt lake provided hours of watching the Brown Pelicans diving, or simply a space to enjoy the warmth and the breeze with some protection from the sun. Nothing is too much trouble for your hosts Gabriela and Douglas, or their charming housekeeper Sharon. After catching the rays a little too strongly at the start of my tirp, Gabriela even supplied me with some much needed After-Sun and additional SPF! I booked this location based on the fantastic reviews and the location. It surpassed my expectations, and was the most perfect escape from the reality of daily life during these strange times. If you like all-inclusive, being waited on, and being surround by other people, this is not for you! If you value your own slice of paradise, where the whole day is yours to while away at your own pace, with world class beaches just around the corner, then Gabriela and Douglas will take care of the rest for you! Thank you Gabi and Douglas and Sharon... I miss Yepton already.
