Cocos Hotel

We had the best time ever at this lovely hotel that describes itself as a ‘rustic gem’. All the staff were divine and the hotel was gorgeous. Thank you so much for the generosity and kindness of all the team from Victoria and Sam

It was our first visit to Antigua and Cocos. We had a brilliant time, the food, location, service and accommodation were all top notch. Above all, the staff at the hotel were superb particularly (in no particular order) : Shana, Anizia, Francine, Stephen, Kerry-Anne, Phylicia, Hazel and Chris. Please can the Management of the hotel pass this review on to the staff members mentioned. Sent by a beer and a Pina Colada/Sparkling wine (Green bottle). Hopefully you'll remember who we are.

Just spent a relaxing few days (not enough!) at cocos. Everything was what I expected as their website is accurate. Loved the privacy of the individual cottages, the outdoor shower, the super comfortable bed, and the gorgeous deck with the sunset views. There was a rotating menu and we never ate the same thing twice. There was some entertainment in the evening and we enjoyed some of it but skipped out early several nights because we didn’t care for the music. The ocean water temperature was cooler than I prefer. Beware it is hilly and many steps but the website is very clear about that. I booked a plunge pool cottage that I would have enjoyed a lot more had it been heated. It was simply too cold to use in the evening. All in all a very unique place!

Such a lovely vacation! We just spent a week at Cocos for our engagement moon. It met all our expectations and exceeded a lot. We stayed in the sunset cottage with a plunge pool - it’s hard to put into words to describe the view! Definitely recommend. Pros: the room is rustic but elegant. It is minimalist but clean and comfortable and has everything you need. We didn’t mind not having a TV. I brought my laptop just in case and we ended up watching a movie one night when we went to bed early. This is a very chill hotel. The nightly entertainment matches that vibe (live band, guitarist, Mr Wonderful who was such an amazing pianist.) lots of young couples at the resort and we enjoyed getting to know some of them, but it’s definitely not a crazy party vibe (the bar closes at 10:45pm.) The food is above average for an all inclusive resort (wouldn’t go so far to say the food was excellent like some of the reviews suggest, but you gotta keep the right expectations.) The staff are warm, gracious, and fun to chat with. Beaches: 11/10. We loved both. Some cons: the walk which many people have mentioned. Our room was at the very end and the walk only took us 7 minutes and wasn’t bad for us at all. We had a guy next door with a recent knee surgery and he was having a hard time. Just something to be aware of. There is room service for an additional charge (I think it’s like $20) so not included in the price of your room. My biggest gripe is that the last order for food closes 30-45 minutes before the restaurants close. So for the grill that closes at 6pm, our last order could be placed at 5:15pm. The restaurant closes at 9:30pm but last order is 9pm. I think changing the times of the restaurant’s closing to when the last orders can be placed makes more sense, especially since in the US if we see a restaurant is open until a certain time, the expectation is that even if you arrived a minute before closing, you would still be able to get service. *in case you go and would like to tip your servers, bartenders, etc (not necessary bc it’s included but we wanted to), make sure to bring small bills. We came ill prepared but luckily the staff were able to find us smaller bills. Overall, we would definitely consider coming back (this is coming from someone who has extremely high standards and generally dislikes the whole all inclusive thing.) we loved it!

We, me and my wife had a wunderful holiday in this little paradise. The staff of this hotel was always at our help, when needed. I got my pineaple-papaya fruit each morning even without order beside all other available tasty things. Other food as well delicious and in a big variety. The only point to claim are 2.5 Kilo more on my scale. But for this I have to blasme myself. Thank you so much and regards to the hole staff, sincerely yours Rudolf
