The location, beaches, and views are absolutely stunning. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. All the food is prepared per order and quite tasty. The rooms are simple with not a lot of frills but comfortable. Our goal for this trip was total relaxation and we accomplished that goal.
There were only a couple things that made our stay not 100%. Apparently our room (#30) is the only room that not only the shower is outdoors but the whole bathroom is outdoors. Having the shower outdoors was expected and enjoyable. However, having the sinks and toilet also outside in the heat with the bugs was not enjoyable. Also, our AC kept going out with an H3 error code. The heat and humidity was rough to deal with when the AC wasn’t working.
Even with these couple of issues we really enjoyed our time at Cocos and would go again.

Be ready for everything to be taken care of

We went for our honeymoon. We were most excited to get away, and a big plus was that there would be no tv in the rooms. We were drawn to the fact that we would be facing west for the best views of the sunset, and we wanted an infinity pool. This place had it all: Good food, the BEST service (it has the most hospitable people you’ll ever meet), and…

We went for our honeymoon. We were most excited to get away, and a big plus was that there would be no tv in the rooms. We were drawn to the fact that we would be facing west for the best views of the sunset, and we wanted an infinity pool. This place had it all: Good food, the BEST service (it has the most hospitable people you’ll ever meet), and a chance to get away from it all. Kris, the manager, knew our names and made sure everything we needed was taken care of and by the end of the week, we were sad to go because we had met some wonderful people—we love you, Kerry Ann!
Just do yourself a favor and go. Enjoy!

Amazing stay at Cocos hotel--the vibe, views, people, food, drink were all outstanding. We would definitely go back and have already recommended Cocos to friends and family.

We visited Cocos Hotel in Antigua for a relaxing vacation. Long story short that’s exactly what it was!
The service of the staff is what you would except at a high class resort but with the rustic charm of this hotel. We booked the bay view room with private plunge pool (room 51). The views and location in our opinion was perfect. We were very close to the main restaurant and bar. The beach is also very close to the rio
Which is enjoyed because this property is very hilly. Walking around will give your legs a workout. The only negative we experienced was the lack of beach towels at both of the breaches. If you get there after 12 you will most likely not have a towel. They do supply 2 towels in your room so after we found this out we ended up bringing our room towels down to the beach. Oh yes and they do have the typical hagglers on the beach but after a day or 2 they didn’t bother us.
Overall we would definitely stay here again

We came here to celebrate our 25th anniversary before major hurricane season hit. My husband isn’t a beach person but he was looking forward to the rustic aspect of the place. Overall we really enjoyed our vacation, with lots of naps, beach time, delicious drinks, and great service.
Pros:
Couples massages were amazing!! A must do!
Views from room and dining area are beautiful!
It was a nice surprise/touch to have swan towels and flower petals everywhere for our anniversary when we arrived
Rustic feel
No TV - we just brought our iPad for movies but I was so glad that my husband didn’t have access to news every morning!
Quiet chill place
Staff friendly and want to meet your needs, we even had the GM stop to ask us about everything which you won’t get at a big resort
Hammock and seating on deck were great to nap and read or just watch ocean (we had sunset view)
Comfortable beds
Plenty of room for clothes
Best smelling shampoo and conditioner
Beautiful beaches
Outdoor shower was a first for us and now I don’t want to stay anywhere without one!
Excellent drinks and they don’t water down like they typically do at all inclusive
Food great but not amazing, except lava cake was incredible!!
Don’t have to make meal reservations
Could be improved for a perfect stay:
Some maintenance needed-sink faucet completely chipped
Outlets in hard to reach places
Nightly entertainment hokey - more like karaoke in a Vegas bar, but we did enjoy the guys who played guitar and some other shake instrument because they had an island vibe.
Cooking class canceled which was a big disappointment since we were really looking forward to it
Would be nice to rotate breakfast menu or have some more options like they do for lunch and dinner
Website shows menus for 2 beach grills (Cockle Shell and Sunset Grill) but there’s only beach grill
Septic smell at times by beaches
Rooms don’t cool all over, only on side by AC unit. Worked fine for us since I got the cool side but it gets super hot in the bathroom! Tip: close doors and curtains!
Dinner service hit and miss, never bad but some times definitely more attentive and friendly servers than other times.
Overall, so glad we came and so much better service in a boutique hotel than major resort!
