Antigua (poll)

Hey guys - so we finally decided the we want to go to Antigua for our HM. (7/30-8/05)

Now I'm trying to decide between Blue Waters and Sandals Antigua...I looked at Tripadvisor but I don't really trust - expecially when you get such extreme opinions for every place...trust you girls more! Help me out please

Also - if you've been to any Sandlas before was it what you expected?

Hate to add more confusion but we stayed at a small Inn called Siboney Beach and we loved it. It is a few doors down from Sandals. Sandals looked like it was okay but not as nice as some resorts and our hotel was in better repair. Sandals is on a great strip of beach but the grounds were just average. I don't think you would go wrong going to Sandals but you probably won't consider it to be the greatest place in the world either. I fell in love with Antigua and I want to go back. I would not turn down a trip to Sandals but it would not be my first choice in Antigua. I am not sure if I remember Blue Waters. Maybe it'll come to me.

The snorkeling seemed great to me. It was my first time. I've heard that some other islands have more to see when snorkeling, but I sure thought it was great in Antigua. I just thought Antigua was such a great, laid back place. I'm always recommending it!
