Any of you JetSetters out there care to recommend a handler, and/or good crew hotel at Antigua (TAPA) please?
Any "gotchas"?...................I'm all ears!!
We're "on" the TSA clearance.
Going there mid December.
Cheers,
Jez

Try Jolly Harbour Villas and Marina, they sometimes have vacancies, otherwise Jolly Beach Hotel.
They're both on the south west of the island away from the airport but not far from the capital.

We used FBO2000 a couple of times. Very nice people and good service. Hotelwise we normally stayed in the "Inn at English Harbour". Check out
One of the Caribbean’s luxury hotels and exclusive Antigua boutique hotels in a beach side five star location in English Harbour (http://www.theinn.ag/)
A very nice hotel. I especially liked the breakfast right next to the sea and the nice beach.
Make sure that you go to the Shirley Hights on a Sunday evening. Great music and a huge barbeque. Great fun :ok:

Watch out for the goats, they get everywhere (especially Shirley Heights). Curried Goat anyone?
PS Try to avoid a taxi driver called Jacob.(easily recognised - shirt open to waist & gold medallion)
