"Cocobay Resort was a little older (or run down) than expected. The cottages were quaint and we were lucky with an end unit with surrounding foliage where we couldn't see our next door neighbor. On several occasions, we briefly had warm water for a shower before it turned cold. The surrounding beaches were amazing with okay snorkeling experiences. The majority of the staff was wonderful.
As an all-inclusive resort and paying as a Silver Sand guest, we believed we could dine at The Cliffside. We could, for an additional $60/person. I had emailed the resort to reserve some days/times and was not informed about the extra expense. Therefore, the only available restaurant for all inclusive meals was Rafters. The food was delicious.
We were surprised at the garbage that was located on and around the resort. There were also several days during house cleaning when a red hose was hooked up to grey water (?) and dispersed the fowl smelling liquid onto the surrounding lawn/landscaping.
Overall, our vacation was fantastic, the beaches were great, the food was delicious, and most of the staff were very friendly. However, if we return to Antigua, we will stay at a different resort."
