I liked how spread out the property is, the breathtaking view and options to eat at different spots on the compound. It was peaceful and very relaxing. I also felt safe. The only snag was in the bathroom where the water did not drain quickly in the tub and the toilet had to be flushed a few times occasionally.

Loved the location of the property and the all-inclusives. It afforded us a pleasant stay. Unfortunately, because a member of my party uses a cane, the constant up and down required to get from point A to point B was very taxing. Elevators need to be installed or the restaurant needs to be relocated. Staff was pleasant and accommodating.

I know it's a resort but I would have liked a clock in the room. Buffet dinner and breakfast were wonderful with a wide variety of foods, complimentary wine, including Antiguan fare. Staff was phenomenally friendly - I was only there one night but they remembered my name, helped me with calls to a tour service. I joined a friend at another resort in the south, and Starfish Halycon Cover was 50 times better - especially with such a close walk to the beach. I wish I could have heard the waves at night. . . Thank you for the best time - you epitomize Antigua!

Great location, good staff but poor condition

The staff were good and location good. The room was poor and bathroom not good. The bath had been repaired at the bottom so you could not stand without feeling that you was going to fall through the bath. The sealing around the bath was all broken and brown. The room door was cracked and hard lock. The beach and location was lovely.The hotel is old and in disrepair. It’s a shame.

The hotel is old and many of the rooms are in terrible condition. We had to ask to be moved from the horrible standard rooms we were given to a room that was in better condition. The Manager was not too keen on moving us because she said we had booked a standard room with Expedia and that is what we got! However, we did not expect run down rooms with mildew all over the shower, furniture that had seen better days, big crack in the sink, etc. In one room, the toilet did not even work! After sitting in the lobby for a while, we were shown other rooms in the main building which were acceptable, though still not the best. We were showering with fruit flies on a daily basis. Who knows where these critters came from as we had no fruit on us!! I could go on and on! We heard that others were not at all happy with their accommodations. Good thing this hotel is up for renovation in April! Reception and dining room staff, bartenders and maids who cleaned room were all wonderful! Malaki, the young man who worked at Reception as the bellhop was very pleasant and helpful.

The resort has a very nice beachfront. The beach is open and long, sand is very nice and wakes are very gentle so swimming is very nice. Beachfront bar is also nice. The Warri Pier extends 150 feet out into the sea and at the end is a formal restaurant that opens for dinner several nights a week. The food and service were excellent and the setting is amazing. Our room was a bit dated but it was fine. Room could use a refresh

Spent a couple of nights at Halcyon Cove on way back to UK . We’ve stayed here before so knew the property was rather tired but it is good value and the staff are always nice. We arrived at about 7pm and despite the reception being very busy due to a cancelled flight, we were dealt with quickly and were soon given our room key. Our room was as expected - king bed, aircon , TV , fridge etc

The property location is ideal. The property itself is in disrepair and outdated. We had no room phone, no iron or ironing board, no amenities in the little refrigerator. We had to pay for bottled water. Very little entertainment on the property and house keeping did a very poor job cleaning our room.This resort should be a one star. Expedia should do a better job of evaluating the criteria of good resorts so as to avoid vacationers the disappointment we just experienced. We look to expedia for quality standards but what we found were substandard. The pictures on the website were good but in reality were deceiving. How do we as vacationers decide where to go on holidays based on a website without standards or criteria of the property resort by Expedia? All we ask is don’t promote a resort on your website that is bad knowing people will be dissatisfied .

Liked: Cleanliness
The property was clean and well kept. Not much to offer in the all inclusive package being that meals were only available a few times a day and there weren't much in terms of options. No real entertainment and really nothing to do on the resort. You need a taxi to get anywhere on the island unless you rent a car which I advise you do. We took a 15 minute drive to and from a restaurant and the taxi driver charged me $80 US! I didn't argue with him because we never used a taxi again. Lucky we had a great bartender named Errol who took us out to two places the locals party and eat. Great guy, tip him well! The resort was quiet with no one around by 10:30 p.m. In terms of beaches there were some really nice ones but for an overall experience there are better islands in the Caribbean.

The Hotel need an update rush, rooms are outdated and the food its below average. If you want a bottle of water it has to be paid. I went for business's, so it was only for breakfast, dinner and sleep. This its a place that I will never repeat.
