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!

This was our second trip to Cocobay and it was even better than last year! This is such a beautiful place, so relaxed, always happy. On arrival, the reception has had a rethink- no-one behind the desk anymore, instead you get a personal welcome and then taken outside for your welcome drink- a much nicer way of greeting you than before- good idea! They upgraded our room too- thank you again. The staff are all just lovely, so cheerful, and always greet you with a smile. I don't remember all their names, but thank you to the bar staff who mixed us lovely Mojitos! A special shout out to Jermaine in the restaurant- always efficient, always cheerful and welcoming. The irrepressible Mr Gore- what can you say? Always ready for a chat and amusing one liners :-) The food was absolutely delicious, the lunch and dinner menus were better than last year as well, and they were good then! Our 8 night stay went too quick. We will be back! Read less

My husband and I cannot say enough about how beautiful Cocobay resort is. We also would like to express our sincerest gratitude to the beautiful staff who make us feel like a family each time we come. The food is amazing and each meal had a wonderful taste sensation of its own. The ice cream and sorbet and Keylime pie and chocolate lava cake were our favorite desserts, the fresh fruit and granola and eggs at breakfast are delicious and the evening meals leave you feeling so grateful for the people who put together such a wonderful taste sensation. We especially like to shout out to topaz, Jermaine, Marlon, and Kathleen and all the other staff who go above and beyond to make us feel like family the pictures alone cannot contain how beautiful the water and the beach are shout out to everyone at Cocobay.

Beautiful, amazing place. This was our first time at an all-inclusive resort and we were nervous about the food. The food was outstanding. Everyday, every meal. The staff is so warm and welcoming. The resort is calm and peaceful, but also happy and chatty in the evening by the bar with the live music. Only one small negative: We are an active couple and we were not impressed with the fitness studio. You really can’t have more than 3 or 4 people in there at a time. We did enjoy swimming in the sea which became our morning exercise after we were inspired by another group doing this. It only takes about 15 mins to swim across to another beach and the water was pretty calm and comfortable. Overall we loved it! The beauty is indescribable. The pools and grounds are lovely. The staff is attentive and awesome. Activities we enjoyed were the sunset sail through Cocobay, nature walk with the Medicine Man, a special private dinner and a couples massage. Aldo be sure to go to Shirley Heights! Fun and lively with all kinds of travelers and locals having a blast. Book this resort and enjoy! Read less
