COCOS Hotel - Adults Only - Caters to Couples - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"This hotel was amazing. Nestled on a hill between two beaches, the setting and views are stunning. We decided to spend all of our time here as we needed to recharge and it was pure paradise. We spend the early day at Jolly Harbour beach and watched the sunset every day at Valley Church beach. The food was amazing. The staff were lovely. They were quick to respond with anything we needed. George was super friendly and helped us on several occasions. Highly recommend this little Paradise. "
Hodges Bay Resort & Spa, an HQ Luxury Resort & Residences
10/10 Excellent
"I can't say enough about the service and staff. The entire butler staff was so accommodating especially when we dealt with Michael. All our excursions and transportation was handled by the butler staff. This was our second time at Hodges Bay Resort and it was even better than our first time. The food menu was more varied since the last time and we tried many of the items from each menu. Since we had a suite, we loved to order room dining and take our time and relax. My wife was thrilled with the spa which we didn't do last time. I loved that the staff restocked our fridge with water everyday. Great benefit and we gladly accepted not having to get our own bottled water. We went out to Prickly Pear island twice for snorkeling and swimming. It did rain briefly during the middle of the week and luckily it happened between our activities. We would definitely come back again."
"We've just arrived home after a 10 night stay at the Ocean Spa resort Hotel.
The resort is beautiful.
It has a lovely feel from the moment you arrive.
Its a small hotel but perfect.
It has 2 lovely, very clean beaches and a fabulous big pool.
Loads of lovely comfy sun beds everywhere and plenty of very comfortable shadey places to sit.
The rooms are big, a bit basic but had everything we needed.
They're cleaned to a very high standard everyday & were spotless.
I liked that they have a water station, so not using loads of plastic water bottles.
The one restaurant is under cover but is very open and airy, overlooking the sea...its wooden which has a lovely feel about it.
All the staff are friendly.
The food is a little bit samey but everything is cooked freshly & to a good standard. Its not a buffet which is nice to be served. A bit more effort/imagination is needed with the puddings...
The hotel is a bit isolated.
We didn’t find anywhere else close by to walk to.
We'd booked on a room only basis & planned to eat out but because there wasn't anywhere nearby we upgraded to all inclusive which is much better value!
While away, I had a painful back problem.
I had 2 massages with Hazel, shes fantastic!
Very, very good & made me feel much better.
All in all, we've had a fabulous, tranquil, restful holiday.
Which is exactly what we wanted.

"We were so pleasantly surprised with our stay! We knew from reviews that it would be basic, and were disappointed to find on arrival that the only amenities it DOES have - the spa and the gym - were both out of use. Despite this, we loved our stay. We aren't too fussed by hotels, as we prefer to be up and out, so just need a clean place to stay. Our room was very spacious, clean, with a generously sized bathroom and large bed, which was firm (something we prefer.) The pillows were rock hard, however, so we couldn't use these. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and although the surrounding area is vibrant/noisy, we found the resort to largely be peaceful and tranquil. There is a brilliant tea station in the courtyard (a must for us Brits!) as well as a water machine, which was so useful for refilling our bottles.
The negatives would be that the walls are paper thin, or at least in our part of the resort, and we could hear our neighbours often. Additionally, the area is VERY noisy at night, and you will need good earplugs if you're to get any sleep. I am a light sleeper and was anxious about the live music across the road, but we bought silicone earplugs and I slept like a baby every night! Just make sure you're prepared, and you'll be fine.
We would 100% stay again. There are lots of local food options, a supermarket, car rentals, Pigeon Point beach and Nelson's Dockyard are only 10 minute walks away! A perfect, affordable base for exploring English Harbour! "
