"Our favorite Resort! We rarely go anywhere twice yet, we’re already starting to think about a 3rd trip back. It’s a beautiful resort in a relatively quiet bay- except for the tree frogs and local birds. The food is plentiful and very good, and the staff is friendly. Every one of them! The beach is white sand and clean, facing a bay and ocean of incredible colors. If one of the oceanfront cabanas is within your budget, then consider it- the private plunge pool and outdoor bathtubs are very nice. The rooms are very romantic and private. I can’t say enough about our positive experiences at CocoBay."

"This is a three-star property on a five-star beach — the nicest in Antigua. The food is excellent, the staff is excellent, and the pools are beautiful. The pool bar is fun, and the entertainment is pretty good as well."

"If you are looking for the tranquil turquoise waters, this is not the resort. The beaches had nice sand but when you got to the water they were very shallow depth with alot of seagrass. One beach did have floating pads to enjoy the warm water. Tucked in a cove so very calm. Property was very beautiful. (Very hilly! They did offer shuttle service) Rooms were clean and nice. Staff were very nice and accommodating. Food was good, daily buffet had different themes for dinner. Multiple restaurants for beautiful views. Drinks were great!!"

"We have stayed here twice. It is a beautiful property with simple rooms. Unfortunately, the additional bedding available in the closet included a blanket with a used condom signaling to me that they don’t wash the additional linens regularly."

"The hotel and grounds are beautiful. They are very well kept. We really enjoyed our dtay here. The staff were super accommodating and helped to make my mum's 70th birthday one to remember. I had been Liaising with the hotel about plans i needed to be made and they were happy to assist at every turn. My group actaully plan to come back and do a full 2 week stay at this hotel as the food was tasty, the pool and beach where perfect and the overal vibe of this hotel was picture perfect for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. I would recommended this hotel to anyone i know looking to stay in a 4/5* hotel in Antigua. I will note that although i had the VIP (diamond) club room and service the alternative option was also very impressive. I can not fault the staff and the 'butler' for their aasistance and there pleasent nature. Nothing was to much to ask for. The freebies definitely helped to add to the value of the accommodation when in diamond club. 9.5/10 for experience, food and vibe of the hotel overall. "

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our first trip to Antigua and stay at Royalton CHIC Antigua exceeded every expectation! Ignore the negative reviews and go with an open mind. The resort is smaller, peaceful, relaxing, and far more personal than the huge crowded all inclusives we usually visit. Our clean third-floor room overlooked the quiet pool, and the sunsets were absolutely unreal. Photos truly do not capture Antigua’s beauty. The staff was kind, responsive, and incredibly accommodating. Anytime we needed our minibar refilled, it was handled quickly. What impressed me most was how seriously they took my severe shellfish/seafood allergies. Every restaurant and buffet asked about allergies, and servers reassured me meals were prepared carefully. I have NEVER felt safer eating anywhere, even in the US. The highlight of our trip was CHEF FRANCIS. After meeting him during Antigua Night and complimenting both his food and karaoke skills, he surprised our group with a complimentary private dinner. It was honestly Michelin-level. Every dish was perfection, including filet, chicken skewers, scalloped potatoes, and banana flambé. One person in our group adds salt and pepper to EVERYTHING and didn’t touch either shaker. That says it all! Huge thank you as well to Jenin and bartenders Jayson, Diane, and Rachel for making our stay unforgettable. We also explored Antigua with an amazing local driver, Kareem Benjamin, who showed us St. John’s, Jolly Beach, Shirley Heights, and Galleon Beach where we snorkele"
