I originally rented the Carib House for a three generational family holiday to celebrate my husband’s 70th birthday. Since the family is spread across the UK as well as the USA, this was going to be excitement enough. However, part-way through the planning, his daughter asked if she could increase the excitement - by getting married in the villa.
Lou immediately and enthusiastically came up with suggestions for all the people that mattered, such as the caterer and florist, and for the next nine months was my co-wedding planner in Antigua in making sure that everything happened on the day.
And it did. The place was just perfect for a 32 person wedding, including friends and family who travelled from the UK, the US and Dubai.
The gazebo was transformed from a relaxing area with stuffed-sofas and swinging hammocks to a beautiful, flower-decorated wedding parlour. The atmosphere after dark with the lights and the candles, was just magical. The little 6 year-old flower girl must have thought that perhaps, after all, life is just like the movies!
I would love to see another visit back to the Carib House in our future - who knows?
And if I didn’t thank you enough at the time Lou - thank you, for everything.......

thank you for your kind words - and for all the fuss, what a party it was in the end! Please come again...Lou

The Carib House was was our introduction to the Antigua, which was wonderful. We have subsequently lived in Antigua for two years and albeit the island has great accommodation, the hospitality given to us by Johny and Lou and the the comfort of The carib House, made it a very memorable stay. Let us know when your video is completed, would love to see it. Richard and Bridget

How can one express in mere words the unique experience of sharing with family (there were 10 of us) the gentle joys of living in a stunning Antiguan villa for a week? How can one describe the warm, caressing tradewinds, the breathtaking panoramic view of the Caribbean Sea and Falmouth Harbour, the privacy afforded by the beautiful landscaping, and the nurturing (and never overbearing) attention of the owners, Louisa and Jonny (not to mention Trippy de Cat)? How to convey the friendliness of the locals, the ease (and fun) of shopping for food at the markets, the memorable day-sail aboard The Ivy, the comforting music of the night peepers in the trees, the ritual of morning coffee in the gazebo by the pool while listening to the waves breaking on the shore below, and the invigorating, rejuvenating sense of outdoor living afforded by the open-air architecture of Carib House? As I sit here in gray, cold, wet Toronto in my 15th-floor hermetically sealed studio, my tan fading by the hour, all I can think of is this: I want to come back. Soon.

Trippy the cat was sooo cute 2! you have to go jet skiing, sooo much fun! I really enjoyed are 10 days in antigua and i can't wait to come back! This a poem by My friend (Rosie) and I(Belle),

In Antigua it is sunny,but it can make you feel funny,

if you do not drink enough water,you are in for the slaughter,
so come to the Carib house for your stay,and you will be fulfilled everyday,
the pool, the sea, the sun and no rain,will make you want to come back again!
