Antigua is known for its tropical climate that remains mostly dry and warm throughout the year. Ranging from lows of 72°F (22°C) to highs of 104°F (40°C), you will want your cool clothing no matter what time of year you visit. The rainy season runs between June and November, making daily rain showers common.
Lightweight and cool clothing is recommended for your stay on Antigua—you’ll most likely be living in tank tops and shorts! Women should pack a few dresses and men a few collared shirts for any dressy occasions such as visiting a nice restaurant or event. With the range of activities available we recommend bringing walking shoes along with your sandals and other footwear of choice.
+1 (268) is the country code for Antigua.
The legal drinking age at Sugar Ridge is 18.
Most hotels and restaurants will automatically add a 10% service charge, so make sure to check your bill before adding gratuity.

Customs requires that visitors have their proper identification as well as an outline of travel, including departure date. It is a good idea to travel with a hard copy of your hotel reservation for proof.

Antigua has a 15% sales tax that is charged to all purchases.
A pharmacy is located just down from Sugar Ridge near Jolly Harbour should you need to visit. However, we always recommend that all prescriptions be filled before you travel to ensure you have what you need.
Our reception is happy to call you a taxi. Many taxi fares are fixed rates depending on your destination. Hiring a taxi driver is also an excellent way to explore the island as most drivers are also trained tour guides.
All of Sugar Ridge’s outlets are 110v with an electrical frequency of 60 hertz, which is compatible with American plugs and devices. If you’re travelling from Europe or other countries with different electrical outlets, please look into bringing an adapter.
All water at Sugar Ridge is filtered and safe for consumption, with bottled water available for purchase. While exploring around Antigua it is recommended that you only drink water that is bottled and avoid tap water and unfiltered ice.
