Twinkle, Charming Cottage, Located on Galleon Beach, Part of Moondance Antigua

Due to building ongoing in Galleon Beach Area, construction noise may occur.

Stone steps lead to this charming cottage named Twinkle. From its beautiful balcony, Twinkle Cottage offers views of Freeman's Bay and Nelson's Dockyard. Twinkle is nestled among our blooming gardens with luscious tropical shades of green and pink. Its delightfully decorated environs include an air-conditioned room with 4 poster King bed, kitchen and a separate bathroom. There is a television with a Fire Sticks for your apps, bluetooth speaker, purified water, beach chairs, and free WIFI. This cottage has shared access to a grill/BBQ deck with a hot tub and pub style seating.

The quarter-mile stretch of Galleon beach is excellent for snorkeling; an
abundance of vibrant marine life can be seen just 75ft from the shore. This
wonderful World heritage Site and National Park environment also has several nature trails for those wishing to experience Antigua's acclaimed flora and fauna.
Historic Nelson's Dock and the bustling hub of English Harbour are a few
minutes' drive or in season, a daytime ferry ride away. Here, you can immerse yourself in the sailing, water sports, restaurants and exhilarating nightlife the area is known for.

From private chefs to spa treatments, we can suggest a variety of extras to
make your holiday special and utterly unforgettable. In fact, the only thing you may
have to worry about is how soon you can return to Moondance in Antigua.

We had a lovely holiday in the relaxing and laid back Island of Antigua.If you are looking for a self catering option Moon Dance/ Twinkle is an excellent choice. Within walking distance to Galleon Beach. The accommodation is comfortable and all requirements catered for. Many thanks

What a charming place!

Our whole experience at Twinkle was perfect, Nathan was super helpful with the booking and check in, the place was immaculate and in a fantastic location, super quiet and moments from the beach. All in all we had a fantastic weekend and cannot wait to stay again!

Quick get away to Antigua

Our overall stay was excellent! The real experience, beauty etc was much better than the photos :. The owner didn't miss an item during our stay - from chairs, to a beach umbrella , cooler etc. , he thought of everything. If we were to visit Antigua again, this is where we would stay, i would not look elsewhere.

This exceeded our expectations! It was in the perfect location, beautiful views to wake up to, and the bed was sooo comfortable. The owners went above and beyond for us, all of our luggage got lost so we didn’t have any cloths to wear, they showed up with bags of cloths for us to wear that just so happen to fit us perfectly. It was very generous of them, after this trip we now realize how much this saved us as there wasn’t a lot of cloths to purchase around the island. When we come back to Antigua we will definitely stay here again and will recommend this to anyone that comes to Antigua. There is also great snorkeling right off the beach!

Always sublime

Always love staying on moondance, we love the rustic artistic Caribbean charm of the place, great chairs and cool box for the beach, everything works and the beds are sooo comfy… looked after by the very lovely fiona tucked away in a corner of galleon beach … the only slight niggle is the Ibiza style loose cannon…whilst the staff and food are ace if I wanted Ibiza music I’d go to Ibiza.. hopefully they’ll mix it up a bit in the future

Amazing week!

After a rocky start to our vacation (flying standby, overbooked car rental, issues with GPS), our stay at Twinkle was a true respite! Nathan helped us before we even got to the property with giving us helpful directions to the villas and an abundance of information on local destinations and shops. An abundance of amenities were included with our stay, such as a local cell phone, beach accoutrement, and even a stocked fridge. Galleon beach is close to local hiking trails to Shirley Heights and has coral reef with snorkeling, as well as The Loose Cannon, a beach bar and restaurant that has great live music on the weekends! Nathan and his team were incredibly receptive to our needs and were always just a text away. Already dreaming of another stay at Twinkle!

Best experience!

I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled to review my stay at this location. The host Nathan was very friendly and warm and greeted us when we arrived. The property was very beautiful and everything we envisioned. The view from the balcony overlooking the beach was immaculate. The suite was very intimate and I was impressed with the decor. Surrounding restaurants were not far from our location and the property had gated security which added to our peace of mind. I would definitely recommend staying at this location and I look forward to revisiting again.

Beautiful place, beautiful location!

We were very impressed with this place! As soon as we walked in and saw the beautiful unit as well as the view of the beach with all the yachts in the water, we were sold. This is definitely the best area to stay in Antigua - we lucked out. Nathan and Clare provided everything we could have wanted - plenty of food to make breakfast, bug spray, even beer! They could not have been nicer or more accommodating. They offered tips on the best beach spots which ended up being awesome - we saw turtles while snorkeling! We even had a housekeeper each day. We hope we get to stay here again one day.

Paradise

This our second time staying at the Moondance Villas. The first time in the one bedroom Kai Etoile and this time at the studio Twinkle. Many improvements made since we were here in 2016 that made the stay much more comfortable. They seemed to provide everything you need - prepaid phone for local calls, bluetooth speaker, cooler to take to the beach, beach towels and chairs, an umbrella, mosquito spray (which is defiinitely needed) etc. The location could not be improved. Just enough off the beach to provide a beautiful view. The beach itself, Galleon Bay, is one of my favorites on the island. Very sparsely populated with just one small beach bar for refreshments. We hope to return!
