Kids Under Six Stay Free: Stretching Your Family Budget at Antigua Village
Family beach getaways don’t have to break the bank—especially when kids under six stay free. At Antigua Village on Dickenson Bay, one child up to age six can stay for free when using existing beds in a parent or guardian’s room. Pair that with spacious beachfront condos, fully equipped kitchens, and a central location steps from the sand, and you’ve got a smart, stress-easing way to plan your Caribbean escape. This guide explains exactly how the policy works, which accommodations fit families best, and practical ways to keep your budget on track without skimping on comfort.
How the “Kids Under Six Stay Free” policy works
Looking for the short answer? Here’s what families need to know.
- One child up to the age of 6 stays free when using existing beds in the parent or guardian’s room.
- Children aged 13 and older are charged as adults.
- Cots for children 0–2 are available free on request (subject to availability).
- No extra beds are provided; some units are already equipped with a daybed or rollaway.
- Occupancy guidelines help you pick the right layout:
- Studios: up to 2 adults
- Suites: up to 3 adults
- One-Bedroom Villas: up to 4 adults

Family-friendly stays: room types and sleeping setups
Choosing the right layout is the easiest way to maximize comfort and value. Antigua Village offers privately owned, individually furnished accommodations with home-style conveniences and resort amenities.
Studios
Studios are perfect for couples and young families traveling with a child under six. Most are furnished with king beds (a few have queens), feature fully equipped kitchenettes, ensuite bathrooms, air conditioning, multi-channel cable television, and free Wi‑Fi. You can book by outlook—beachfront, pool view, or garden view—so it’s easy to match your budget with your preferred setting.
- Best for: 2 adults, plus one child under 6 sharing existing bedding; cots (0–2) available on request.
- Why families like them: Kitchenettes save on dining costs; proximity to the pool or beach keeps transitions easy with little ones.
Suites
Suites average about 650 sq. ft., including a patio or balcony of roughly 120 sq. ft., giving families a comfortable indoor-outdoor footprint. Suites include full kitchens, ensuite bathrooms, air conditioning, direct-dial telephones, multi-channel cable TV, and free Wi‑Fi. Many can accommodate an additional adult or up to two children with a convertible sofa bed or an added rollaway already in the unit (supplements apply for extra adults).
- Best for: Parents who want added living space, meal prep flexibility, and a designated sleep spot for a child.
- Value note: Rates are quoted for two people sharing; supplements apply for additional adults.
One-Bedroom Villas
Set amid luxuriant gardens, these one-bedroom villas come as duplexes (ground and first floor) or ground-floor-only layouts. They’re fabulous for two adults and can accommodate up to four adults—ideal for small families who want breathing room. Some units include daybeds or rollaways already in place (supplements apply for extra adults beyond two).
- Best for: Families who value separate sleeping and lounge areas, and easy patio-to-garden access.
- Why it saves: Full kitchens plus more space mean easier naps, snacks, and downtime without extra dining spend.
Three-Bedroom Beachfront House (House 28)
For larger families or multi-generational escapes, House 28 is the resort’s three-bedroom beachfront vacation house—the largest accommodation in Antigua Village. This spacious two-level layout sleeps up to six adults comfortably and places you steps from the sand.
- Best for: Bigger families and groups who want direct beach proximity and a home-style setup.
- Value note: One larger home can be more cost-efficient than multiple smaller units.
Built-in budget savers for families at Antigua Village
Antigua Village blends condo-style convenience with resort touches—ideal for parents who value flexibility and everyday savings.
