Cocobay Resort Antigua - All Inclusive - Adults Only

This was the most beautiful place in the world. Every single person was absolutely amazing, beautiful inside and out and just perfect. We miss it already and are already planning another trip. We can't thank the people who took such great care of us enough. The views from every angle everywhere we looked were just perfect. So we'll taken care of, clean, maintained, amazing food, amazing people, amazing atmosphere, clean beach, accommodating staff, wonderful service, it felt more like a second home than it did anything else.

One of the nicest hotels we have stayed at in the Caribbean. I was a little concerned that only having one restaurant the meals would be disappointing. But I couldn’t have been more wrong! The food was excellent - very well presented and nice sensible portions. The staff were all friendly and helpful. So why only 4 stars? The main pool was stunning but the second pool by the beach was a little run down. There was no private beach and the small public beach accessible from the hotel was a bit run down. At night the resort could have been better lit. But overall I would highly recommend this resort

Arrival at the airport, probably took 10 min for immigration & getting our luggage. *make sure you fill out both sides of paper and keep your end. We booked a taxi with Mr.Lunch, he was highly recommended through the group and he is very professional, and punctual. Arrival to the Resort, we got greated by the concierge, they took out luggage and we went to reception to check in ( we did the online Check in, it saved lots of time) we just had to add a credit card. While we were doing that the concierge brought us drinks. We sat and enjoyed the view while waiting for the manager to come. Once she came she greated us, and we had a breakdown on how everything works. She asked us what time we wanted dinner, and then we were guided to our rooms. We booked through *******, and had the deluxe cottage private pool ocean view. Room N2 BREATHLESS! Food- when I saw it I said man, I won't get full but I had trouble finishing every meal. You get 4 course meals, the perfect portion. Every meal is amazing, the drinks also¡ the staff so friendly(I loved Kathleen), they are excellent. At the bar we loved everyone in particular Derrick and Yocaste*very very attentive. I was there for my birthday and got sang too by the band because they told them. It was beautiful. The coffee shop was soo good. You have so many choices We did use the paddle boards and kayak from the resort, and rented out the jetski at the beach from Teddy for $55/1/2 an hour. They give different pricing, from $88- $55. They will bargain. We went to Shirley Heights on Sunday, used the shuttle with the resort. It was $30/ person round trip. There you find the live music, little vendors and lots of food and drinks. The sunset view was just unbelievable. Tuesdays the resort sets up shuttle to st. John's. To get souvenirs, you will find everything from mugs, to Keychains, ect. We didn't end up taking the shuttle because the other couple was running late and we wanted to be done early to come back and enjoy. We paid $50 roundtrip, while there everyone will try to get you to buy something and they have similar things, you just negotiate and spread the love. We reserved the black rock pool for tapas night on my birthday & it was magical, from the moment they get you and take you, treated me like a princess, got amazing food and bottle. And let's not even forget the view and sunset!!! Highly recommend. By the beach we met Norma and Collette they sell bracelets and have dresses and souvenirs. They take vemno so if you don't have cash on you it doesn't matter. We rented the jetski with Teddy, he also got us fresh fruits like coconuts $5/ coconut, black pineapple and papaya. On the last day, check out was quick and easy.
