Ten day,s at the Halycon with the pleasure's of majority of staff with blinding smile.s, food of a constant good variety and taste, beach of powdered sand and a relaxing feel to the hotel that left us totally relaxed . Not your place if you want plastic facade,s of both furniture and staff behaviour, just a genuine 3, 3+, hotel... more

One of the best locations and great value for money. We had a free upgrade to a referbished room at the end of the beach. But best of all are the staff, There is family feeling about the hotel,the service was great. So thanks to Joy, Fenton, Julieann, Ken and all the others that made our stay so special. more

Had a fab time. People must remember that this is a 3 star property and as such should not expect 5 star accomodation. It would appear that there is refurbishing being carried out but we found the accomodation fine for what we paid. The staff however were FANTASTIC - a special mention must go to the ever smiling Fenton, an... more

We visited over the early Easter period and the hotel was definately less than half full, as a result there was slightly less pressure on the staff, but more importantly less pressure on the hotel infrastructure. We were treated exceptionally well by all staff ( Margerita, Corlita?, Jacqeline, Julie ann, Bernadette, Joy, Fenton to name a few and Ashton in... more

You expect resort hotels in Antigua to be over-priced but this took the biscuit with a £120/night room rate (room only) for what in most beach areas should have been more like £70/night. The room was nothing special but OK - the whole place needs a refurb as it's not been touched for several decades, and the on-site food was... more

Management response from
afmarsh, manager

I am sorry that your expectations were not met during your stay with us. There seems to have been some misunderstanding regarding our dining facilities as we have one a la carte restaurant which is on the Warri Pier, one buffet restaurant which is the Arawak Terrace, (the main restauant) and the Carib Grill where we serve a buffet lunch....

Just returned from 10 days on all inclusive - cost about £900 per person including flights. This seemed excellent value but after reading some reviews wondered if it might be 'too good to be true'. Not at all. On arrival we were upgraded to a very pleasant poolside room. (When a minor fault occured with the aircon it was repaired... more

We have just returned from a fabulous break at The Halcyon Cove. The staff were all brilliant and friendly - especially Fenton and Errol. The food was great value for money (AI plan). Breakfast was very good, poached eggs and omelettes cooked to order. Lunch poolside was not always the same as someone has previously reviewed. Yes, burgers and BBQ... more

having seen some of the reviews on here im thinking people expect far too much from a 3 star resort. I am an admitted snob when it comes to booking holidays (4 star or more) and booked this one with virgin on the phone without looking at the resort. Boy am I glad I did as it far exceeded what... more

The hotel has a great location in Dickinson Bay , the staff are amazing , the food is good and the rooms are kept spotlessly clean. The hotel is in the process of ongoing refurbishment but this does not affect your stay and can only improve the hotel facilities in the long term. our holiday was enhanced by great staff... more

We found the staff charming and very helpful, no complaints about the food or drink, rooms were spacious and the beach was fantastic. I would like to especially say thank you to Travis, Norris Morris Harris and Julieanne Roberts, members of staff that couldn't have been more helpful and attentive, and are a credit to this hotel. The only complaint,... more
