Letting in Antigua
Rules and licensing
Registration with INGUAT, the national tourism institute, is expected for commercial accommodation. Antigua is a UNESCO site with strict heritage rules on altering buildings.
Tourist tax
A tourism tax is included in accommodation pricing and collected via INGUAT.
How the year is shaped
November to April is the dry peak, with Semana Santa the single biggest week of the year — Antigua’s processions draw visitors from across the region.
Who books here
Spanish-language students taking multi-week stays, volcano trekkers and cultural travellers. A courtyard and hot water reliably matter more than size.
Short-term rental rules change often and can differ by district, and building or condominium rules may restrict letting regardless of what the city permits. Treat this as orientation, not legal advice, and confirm the current position with the local authority before letting.
