SN Travel Attends the Launch of “Unique Properties GEMS of Antigua and Barbuda” Guide

Discover the real Antigua and Barbuda!

SN Travel were recently lucky enough to be invited by the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority to attend the London launch of their fantastic new guide “Unique Properties GEMS of Antigua and Barbuda”. The event took place at The Pelham Hotel on 16th November with Minister of Tourism for Antigua and Barbuda the Honourable Asot Michael in attendance along with the ministry’s Compliance and Accommodations Officer – Dulcie Looby-Greene who spearheaded the campaign.
The aim of this wonderful and insightful guide is to help promote independent properties in both Antigua and Barbuda, and in turn showcase a more authentic experience for visitors to the islands. The guide features a collection of small independent hotels, inns, bed and breakfasts and villas throughout Antigua and Barbuda, all owned and operated by local islanders and all of which offer a genuinely warm and personal experience.
Properties range from the more sophisticated to the simple and affordable and each offers a real home from home experience for visitors. Guests are guaranteed an authentic taste of Antigua and Barbuda and will find themselves immersed into the real island life with their affable hosts.
In his official speech at the launch, Minister of Tourism for Antigua and Barbuda said that he believed this collection of unique properties will “showcase a new dimension for our destination” and will ensure that “tourism will benefit all sectors of our economy and society”.

The head of this exciting campaign – Compliance and Accommodations Officer Dulcie Looby-Greene expressed her delight that the guide had finally come to fruition and that “these smaller gems of Antigua and Barbuda finally have a platform in which to promote themselves to the world”.
We were really pleased to be able to meet some of the wonderful property owners featured in the Unique Properties GEMS of Antigua and Barbuda guide whilst at the launch, who each in turn presented their lovely properties and outlined some of their added value elements that set them aside from the rest. Mrs Lorilyn Walker represented the Lamblion Apartments and highlighted the excellent car rental service they offered whilst Mrs Shirmique Jeffers Salmon from Connie’s Comfort Suites revealed the fantastic market tours they offer. Mrs Jaqueline Cort-Thomas from The Villas at Sunset Land revealed the lovely cookery classes she offers at her property whilst Mr Roger Lewis from South Coast Horizons outlined their unique visits to the mangroves.

SN Travel are delighted to announce that we will be working closely with the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority in promoting these wonderful and unique GEMS to the UK travel market, bringing to our customers the opportunity to enjoy a most authentic and enjoyable experience of the islands of Antigua and Barbuda. We understand that not everyone wants to stay in one of the larger holiday resorts and that there are many travellers who prefer to enjoy a true taste of island life, who love to meet the local people and who are perhaps looking for a more affordable and independent kind of holiday to Antigua and Barbuda.
We will shortly be launching a dedicated section to our website devoted to these wonderful and unique GEMS of Antigua and Barbuda so please watch this space!

Recently used SN Travel for the second time to help us with our annual holiday The booking process with Laura was great as always but everything after that was very poor. The hotel we stayed at was in the middle of a major upgrade with work starting early in the morning and lasting all day. It was noisy and dusty and not how I want to spend my holiday. The work was right outside our room and all round the swimming pool, see photos. Whilst I fully understand that this is not the fault of SN Travel other holiday makers had been warned and either moved to other buildings on the complex or changed hotels. Either SN Travel decided not to tell us this or they are not very well informed by their local agent. Either way you should question why you need to use them rather than go direct to the hotel or book online Our transfer from the airport, which they organised, was also a shambles but again they are taking no responsibility for that either. Make your own judgement as to whether you want to use this company, I think there are many better ones out there. We certainly won’t ever use them again

Nadeene is amazing to deal with. Not like most other travel agents who fob you off just to take your money. She genuinely makes an effort to cater to your specific needs. I highly recommend booking with SN Travel & Nadeene especially.

Sntravel exceeded the dream. We recently had 78 passengers in our group who booked with SNTravel to travel to Antigua for a 60th birthday staying at St James's Club and other parts of the island. Yvonne made the dream become the reality, dilligently working to accommodate everyone's need. An exceptional job and everyone has said until the next time. Thank Andrew & Dawn

My recent travel was sadly horrendous. The issues start with information for my flight to my hotel stay. I had to email and call SN for my final holiday details as my date for travelling were nearing. This filled me with anxiety. My hotel itinerary was different to my friends, I had room only booked with no breakfast meal, the lift to our hotel floor was not working properly, there was no one to help us with our luggage to our room on the 18th floor, we had no hot water to shower after travelling for hours, I could not close the blinds to my window, so was completely disposed to all to see me in my room, the room itself was not very clean. My friends in another room also experienced the same issues as well, and we spoke with other guests who were equally disappointed. We complained almost every day, and eventually spoke to the hotel director Bill Russell (that's the name he gave us) Bill informed us that a waiver of 1 nights stay would be returned to us as soon as SN travel were contacted and informed. Sad to say this was my first time using SN and will be the last. DO NOT GO TO THE MANHATTAN AT TIMES SQUARE HOTEL!!! This place needs to be completely refurbished. We await to find out if we will have further contact with SN Travel & The Manhattan.
