Freetown Hotel Guide - Beach Hotels in Freetown, Saint Philip

"My wife and I have been visiting the Caribbean islands for many years. I approached this trip with limited knowledge of Antigua and the property itself. I can honestly suggest to you that our experience far exceeded any expectations. Travel through VC Bird airport was a breeze as was locating a taxi to take you to the property. Upon arrival, we were greeted with friendly smiles and helpful information (and rum punch). Cocobay is situated on the west side of Antigua and close to several beautiful beaches. The cottages offer a rustic and outdoor feel, but are clean and offer a superb view of the surrounding area. Simply put, the view is breathtaking. Cocobay offers various packages and my wife and I paid for the Romance package that included a couples massage, floating lunch at black rock pool, and a private sunset dinner for two. The infinity pools on-site are stunning. There are so many little hideaways and quiet spaces on the property - perfect for couples! There is a coffee and gift shop close by with delicious coffee, lattes and smoothies. Several bars dot the property and offer incredible tropical refreshment. There is one main restaurant, but the menu changes daily and is so intentionally-planned with delicious food and perfect portions. The service was second-to-none and ensured my wife and I enjoyed a restful and special experience together. We are already planning our return trip! "

"The resort was spacious and safe. Everyone was friendly. Only negative aspects were the elevators and the photographers. On the Mediterranean Side there are two non air conditioned elevators. One elevator would not go to our floor. So we had to get off on the floor before and walk up the stairs. The other elevator wouldn’t go to the first floor so had to get off on 2nd Floor and walk down. The other negative is the continuous staff photographers snapping pictures everywhere you went on the resort. You felt the paparazzi were following you around. Each photo is $20 if you chose to purchase. You don’t have to purchase but it is stressful knowing they are coming and you have to say “No Thanks” while enjoying your dinner and the entertainment. On a positive note try to go on an excursion to Shirley Heights and private tour of the Island with Flava Tours in the air conditioned van. "

"Property was safe, clean and quiet. Staff were friendly and the views were amazing. "

"We like everything about this property, the staff was very friendly, Stanley had a smile on his face all the time always happy to help, Shakira at the front desk was very friendly too and the other ladies as well. The quietness, the beach on the back, less than 15mn from the airport...i will definitely stay here again..."

"Enjoyed the pool, beach, drink options and buffet options."

"Amazing trip!!!!"

"Property staff was exceptional from check-in with Jaheim to a landscaper Danfari assisting with a little thing such as taking me to a pipe to wash sand off my feet. "

"We liked the resort because it was small and only had 50 cottages. We had minor issues with the quirky outdoor shower that seemed to have a mind of its own and the AC unit which would not respond to input from the remote. The bed was fairly comfortable and the room was kept stocked with what we needed. There was a nearby stage set up on our first night that blared music constantly from 4pm until after midnight. Thankfully it was only one night or our stay would have been terrible. There is only one main restaurant but the menu changes nightly and every meal was excellent."

" Great "
