Wow we almost have the same dates! I'll be there with my husband Nov 7-15.

based on the web site it looks sold out. Guess we all have to get up and reserve our chairs. I am actually thinking the CV pool sounds much more attractive if I can sleep in.

From what I was told is that they are running at 97-98% capacity lately.

Have you been before? This will be our fist trip to Antigua so I hope we'll get a chair at some point. We are booked in the CV side-Honeymoon Oceanview Suite.

Don't worry about how full the resort is, we were there in January and they were 100% booked, yet it really did not feel that crowded. No problem getting chairs around the pool or along the beach. If you want pool side loungers around the big MV pool you will have to get up pretty early to reserve one with personal items on it to show it is taken, but we always found empty loungers around some of the other smaller pools, and along the beach.

Check out our video, and you will see it does not look very crowded for being 100% booked.

Your on holiday, so why get up at 6:00am to get a pool side lounge, the sun shines all over the resort, not just next to the pool :o)

Enjoy

Loved your you tube video. Can't wait to go. I haven't scuba'd in years, but am certified. Looks fun. Thanks for the video

My wife and I will be at Sandals from the 8-15th. We are also staying at the honeymoon oceanview suite. We don't really know what to expect, as this is our first "big" trip.

We booked the MV venetian suite, but I'm thinking the CV side for pools sounds much mellower. Your coming from Canada? We are coming from So Calif, so we have a long flight of the red eye varity. Can't wait, only 2 more weeks.

We have a red eye to Antigua, as well. Problem is that we have quite a long flight so we won't be on the beach until late afternoon.
