8/10 Good
"The property seems dated but its well maintained. The staff is AMAZING. The grounds are BEAUTIFUL. There is a good variety of food....you won't go hungry no matter what time it is. It's a very large property but there's cart transportation thats always available. What can be improved? (1) There is no ATM on the property, we had to venture out to find one....scary (2) its an all-inclusive resort but you have to pay to have your in-room fridge stocked...why? (3) booking our scuba dive was cumbersome...they don't offer assistance at the resort and all of the diving is on the other side of the island...approx $100 in taxi fees. Still it was a wonderful vacation and we would visit again."

"We really enjoyed our stay at cocos. The staff could not be more helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable. The aircon was very efficient !! The food was beyond our expectations. Everything was made fresh with plenty of choices and daily chefs specials - Healthy choices available . The daily fish suggestion was always good. The Bar staff are super freindly with fast service at all bar locations throughout the day and eve . The 2 beaches are equally stunning with roped off areas for safe swimming/floating . My one suggestion would be to update the beach umbrellas. They are simply not big enough and give almost no shade in the afternoon as they are fixed into the ground. It was truly a beautiful and peaceful resort for couples and we would not hesitate to return. Antigua is a beautiful island with wonderful people. I look forward to returning."
