Cocos Hotel

Just returned from a 10 day trip to Antigua ( cut short by Hurricane Irma unfortunately) hasnt put us off returning, this resort is made by the people who work there it is very rustic and you wont be able to wear heels for your whole trip ( I managed wedges one night and had to take them off to return to room) but it is more than made up for by the hospitality and friendliness of the staff - hope that never changes. Food is excellent too and nothing is too much trouble for anybody.

Omg!!! The staff here were soooooo welcoming!! They make you feel so special as if your the only person there. My boyfriend & I enjoyed ourselves. The food was amazing. No buffet style but a prefixe menu with PLENTY of options. You can choose as much or as little as you would like. The only down part to the hotel is that if you don't like exercising you will then. Some of the cottages were way up on the top it's a continuos incline. My body got used to it after the first /second day lol! The room doesn't have a T.V, it's gives you that time to bond with your significant other which is a PLUS!! Amazing Views! All In All we had a great time.

Myself and my husband just returned from our honeymoon from cocos. We stayed in room 5 and it was paradise. Total paradise it's the only word to describe the whole place. Hotel itself: Ok so I read a lot of reviews and like anyone had concerns about them and here are my views on the negative points people picked up on (baring in mind I am a total snob): Outdated - the hotel is in no way outdated. Simple. If you want a modern hotel go to a built up place. But I can guarantee you will not have a paradise feeling you have here. Food - I am fussy and I am saying the food couldn't have been more tasty. 5* food breakfast lunch and dinner. Security/people selling on beach - our beach isn't totally private, however, there was hardly any people along the whole beach! We are at the end of the beach and have our own clear area which not one person who was not part of the hotel came on to. One person tried to sell us a jet ski, we said no and he left! Did not annoy us in any way and we were planning on going on them anyway. Walk to the rooms - yes of course there is a walk to the rooms, you have booked a holiday on a cliff to have the views you want, what do you expect? An elevator?! We stayed there a few nights and literally had the best time. Food, Akil on the beach bar, our room, the list is endless it was just perfect I do not have one fault. Now we unfortunately were here during hurricane Irma struck. Myself and my husband still are in shock at how the hotel dealt with the situation. They evacuated us to another hotel to keep us safe organising the whole thing. They gave us enough food and drink to last forever. The staff gave up going home to their families to stay with us 24/7 to keep us safe. They kept us continually informed and did all they could to get us home to the uk. There are no words to describe how grateful we are they kept us safe. We felt like a big family out there and we miss them! We are already currently trying to plan to return to have our real honeymoon early next year and pray we can do so. Hope to see you guys soon! � Kate and jake xxxxx

A friend and I went to get away from it all for the weekend, we shared a room overlooking the beach and had a very relaxing vacation. the food was healthy and the staff was warm and friendly, they anticipated our needs after the first day.

I read earlier reviews carefully before booking - the consensus seemed to be that the hotel has seen better times, but the spectacular location/views outweigh the negatives. Still decided to give it a try. To be honest, I was disappointed - things are falling apart, there is lack of attention to detail and this is definitely not a "luxurious boutique resort" which is what the website states. The sunset pool cottage would be okay at $200, but not $1,000 per night. Staff is very friendly, but on all three days there were no beach towels available at the beach. The safe was locked and the reception was supposed to send someone to open it - unfortunately no one made it to our room during our stay... These are just a few examples. Food was just okay - I'd say breakfasts were disappointing, dinners tasty but not very imaginative. We picked other places (including Sheer Rocks at the other end of the beach) for most of our meals. Mosquitoes were a big issue during our stay so remember to bring some repellent. Overall, we found the whole experience below-average and the high price tag is definitely not justified (and I've been to over 100 countries, including a few other Caribbean islands so have a pretty good comparison).
