Cocobay Hotel

Just Fabulous

It’s amazing how private your cabin is. Dotted on a hillside overlooking the ocean, all views are great views. The private infinity pool off of our back deck was a wonderful way to cool down and yet never lose the view. Privacy is created with a trellis thick with gorgeous flowering vines and shrubs busily maintained by hummingbirds. There is also the resort’s infinity pool with what has to be an award winning view - ocean but contrasted with hilly landscape forming bays where boats sail and birds soar. It’s location near the bar is convenient. The restaurant is open air. Netting helps keeps many of the begging birds out, but not all. Cover your juice when you leave the table to go to the buffet. A few ceiling fans would have helped to make the environment more comfortable. The service was professional, efficient and courteous. The food was attractive- artful even, and quite delicious. There were variety, options and just the right amount. As well, there us always afternoon tea. The main beach was quite nice but as was noted in another review, there are sand fleas. We opted for the smaller beach in the cove. It’s a quiet place. Evening entertainment is periodic and varied. A small boat is available to take for a sail. There is a central room with a large flat screen and couches -you can keep up with sports scores and news, if you wish.

Awesome!

The hotel was the rustic West Indies style with open air rooms cooled by ocean breezes. The staff was excellent!

Traveler's tip on recreational activities

Take the Antigua Rain Forest Canaopy Tour and go zip lining!

What an awesome vacation!!!

I can’t say enough about the fabulous time at this hotel--the staff was great and always called me by name inquiring about the excursions and how I enjoyed them. The room was wonderful with its own infinity pool, which I used every day, along with laying out by the hotel pool. I must say the best thing about this hotel was NO KIDS! It made it such a quiet, relaxing grown-up experience. All the guests were friendly and I made many new aquaintances. Although it was a very couples oriented place, I still felt comfortable as a single lady. I loved that there were no phones and tvs in the rooms, but access was very easy at the lobby desk. I stayed in room 2, which was an oceanside view with air conditioning--my friends stayed in room LC, which had the same amenities and they also loved it! I did not get the all inclusive meal package, but did pay the additional dinner only prices each night. The food was great! Take the group taxi to town--St. Johns at a reasonable price with a group--it is much more expensive if you try taking a taxi on your own!! You must do the rain forest ziplining! It is awesome!! I can’t wait to return to this hotel and island as there is so much to offer!
