Bad Points: Shops on the resort not open enough!
General comments: The beach and the accommodation was excellent, poolside and pool cleaned regularly. All staff friendly, good choice of food and well presented and good views from restaurants.
We had a great room with a pool and beach view, air conditioning and tv, lovely stretch beach and good choice of watersports. Would recommend eating at the Beach Bar which is just a bit further than Sandals with good nightlife.

This hotel was built in 1973, and is going through an upgrading. It was originally a 5 * hotel, but let to run down. They have now a very progressive General Manager and the backing of a very good staff. Improvements are happening daily, and feel that within no time at all it will be back to its original status. The trips arranged from the hotel are excellent, and of very good value. This hotel needs to be tried as I feel that it offers very good value.

My boyfriend and I visited Antigua for the first time. The hotel was generally ok and our room was clean and was a good size, however we were shoved in a room at the block at the back, which in my opinion needs to be knocked down and fully refurbished!!! We stayed for 2 weeks and found that after 3 days we had no hot water, and subsequently for the next 11 days we had to endure having cold showers!! The entertainment was mediocre and there was not enough to do on the complex in the evening. Apar ...

My husband and I went to Rex Halcyon Cove for the first time ever all inclusive; we had a wonderful time! The room was beautiful, the staff were helpful and friendly, the food was wonderful, the social atmosphere was the best - we would return like a shot! The catamaran tours are not to be missed, a party atmosphere all day long....We went in May/June and were told that as it was the end of their season and the hotel was not 'full enough' the entertainment had been cut - this was sad, as we wer ...

My husband and I have just had a 10 day Virgin Holiday at Rex Halcyon Cove. Being 27 weeks pregnant I was keen to be near the most facilities hence picking the busiest beach on the island, and so glad we did. In terms of 'busy' - yes there are few beach bars and a couple of hotels but by most resort standards it was quiet and laid back and the beach is truly stunning.
The hotel has prime position on the north end of the beach where the sand is white powder and the beach is quite deep and for ...

Rex Halcyon Cove has been a wonderful hotel; when all the fixtures & fitting were new it must have been lovely. It's well laid out, nice well-kept grounds and the staff are friendly and helpful, although their efforts are hampered by trying to cope with guests complaining about their rooms. We booked a standard room and upgraded to a beachfront studio when we got there. The studio had a narrow (sitting-out type)balcony overlooking the beach - wonderful. But the room itself - the WC didn't flush ...
