K’ai Etoile is a Caribbean gem; a lovey cottage by the sea. It was all we had hoped it would be. At the risk of sounding unduly spoiled, my only suggestion would be to update the beach chairs! They are old, heavy, and somewhat uncooperative. Nathan and Clare were great hosts and we will return as soon as possible!

4 nights in paradise
Our hosts were wonderful, the property was beautifully situated with an elevated view of Galleon Beach and English Harbor in a garden-like setting with bullfinches and banaquats friendly and interested. Just off of the property is a premier snorkeling beach, with nightlife on the beachfront. Within a couple of very short miles up the road is Shirley's Lookout, which has a great party with bar-b-que on Sundays and another great view of English Harbor, and just beyond an old 'block house' remants that offer a stunning view of the southwest of the island atop a 500 foot bluff which was amazing to watch sunrise from. Many large yachts stop over in English Harbor, supporting a community of really fine restaurants covering a wide range of types and costs. The property has a hot tub, is behind a gated entrance, and is staffed well by a housekeeper and property upkeep guy. For a caribbean vacation, a stay here cannot be topped. We really could not think of how the experience might be improved.

We loved everything about our stay in the Kai cottage at Moondance! Clair and Nathan were very communicative , provided lots of area information and even left us a great assortment of snacks , drinks and wine. The property is tucked into the mountain providing privacy and amazing views of the harbor and surrounding hills. You can hike the gorgeous Carpenter Trail / Jones Valley Trail loop right from the cottage and can snorkel the properties Galleon Beach . We saw a nice assortment of fish, turtles and rays. Only a short drive to Shirley heights, English harbor restaurants and Local beaches. The cottages are beautifully decorated with a lot of charm and stocked with all the amenities you may need including laundry. We also enjoyed the hot tub and beautiful gardens. We would love to visit again!

Honeymoon at Moondance
We absolutely loved out time in the Kai Cottage at Moondance. Nathan was a wonderful host who helped check us in and made sure we were comfortably settled before leaving the property. The housekeepers were warm, kind and welcoming. Great location for exploring all of English Harbor, right at the base of the hiking trails up to Shirley Heights. We would highly recommend Moondance to anyone visiting the island of Antigua. Wish we could have stayed longer - hope to be back soon :)
