The hotel

This beautifully positioned adults-only resort has a range of individual pastel-painted cottages with some of the most spectacular views on the island. There's two plunge pools and two infinity pools, one perched on the cliff edge, and you'll find yourself relaxing here as soon as you see the view. The main restaurant is on three different levels and enjoys alfresco breezes, while Sheer Rocks restaurant offers delicious gourmet cuisine with individual booths for extra privacy all overlooking the beautiful bay. There's a 'Wellness Cottage' that offers a range of wonderful treatments. On either side of the bluff lie two beautiful beaches, with a third within walking (or kayaking) distance!

WOW, my husband & I just loved every single moment of our stay at Cocobay! Our cottage was so spacious and comfortable. The facilities of the hotel were amazing, lovely gardens. pools, private beach but also easy access to 2 other beaches. The food in the main restaurant was exceptional and also the dining experience in their cliffside restaurant for lunch was brilliant! The reception staff were friendly, welcoming and so helpful in all aspects of our vacation. Thank you so much to ALL members of staff in the bar and restaurant and coffee shop. After just 3 days, we decided we would be definitely be coming back! I enjoyed the use of paddle boarding from the hotel and my husband did 3 morning dive excursions organised via the hotel. We also did a wonderful trip to Barbuda by plane and private boat charter organised by the hotel. Thanks so much to everyone at Coco bay for your hospitality…Alison & Carlx Read less

Cocobay is amazing! The grounds are stunning, we loved our cottage (especially our private pool and coffee delivery house), the bed was huge and so comfortable! The food is top notch with new menus every day. We did not have a bad or even average meal, it was all superb! Drinks are also fab, lots of cocktails and top shelf liquor. Their draught lager is also lovely, was worried we’d only have Coors light and as Brits, well thats not really beer is it? 😬 All of the above makes this a great place to stay! What makes its an unbelievable place to stay is the staff. They are all incredible, so friendly and make you feel like you’re the most important guest ever. Special mentions to our favourites; Kemlin, Marlon, Vernon, Lorenzo, Lisa, Jonique and Saskia! I am sure I have forgotten some too! Anyway, book the trip! You will not regret it! We are already planning to return. Read less

The service and stay was amazing. All of the staff are incredibly helpful and super accommodating. You’re steps away from many different beaches. The rooms are clean, they spray your room so that mosquitoes do not bother you. The food is fresh. Make sure you book a reservation at Sheer Rocks. It’s a gorgeous cliff restaurant. We couldn’t recommend… Read more
