- Starfish Halcyon Cove Hotel - Dickenson Bay Loved the rustic feel of the resort, very different from the typical contemporary resorts. The pool view rooms on the second floor had stunning views and comfortable beds. The buffet food was amazing with a variety of options and rarely any line-ups. The beach was beautiful, despite some rocks and seaweed. We enjoyed long walks along the bay. The pool water was cloudy, possibly due to the salty water. We didn't feel inclined to swim in it. Ernest United Kingdom, July 2023

- JaredStarfish Halcyon Cove Hotel - Dickenson Bay The location of this hotel was ideal - just a 15-minute drive from the airport and right on the beach. We loved having direct access to the stunning beach and enjoyed the fantastic views. The reception staff and indoor bar staff were very polite and helpful. The hotel grounds and gardens were beautiful and well-tended, creating a serene and relaxing atmosphere. In terms of activities, we really enjoyed the aqua aerobics class and the mini railroad transportation offered by the hotel. Additionally, the breakfast provided was delicious, and the staff in the restaurant, particularly Nikita, were sassy and added to the enjoyable dining experience. All good.

- HermanStarfish Halcyon Cove Hotel - Dickenson Bay I recently stayed at this hotel and was impressed by its value for money. The prices were reasonable for what it had to offer. The hotel's attention to detail was evident, especially in the clean rooms, although they could use some updated furniture. The location right on the beach was a definite highlight, with beautiful white sand and clear blue water. The service provided by the staff was exceptional, with friendly and accommodating individuals who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The basic amenities provided were in good condition and the breakfast BBQ was a delightful way to start the day. All was acceptable, no major issues. Herman United States of America, April 2023
- RobertStarfish Halcyon Cove Hotel - Dickenson Bay Great complementary drinks in queue, beautiful location near the beach, and friendly staff. Our room had a lovely view and was comfortable enough. The breakfast options were fresh and delicious, and we enjoyed the fact that the hotel is conveniently located near an array of restaurants. The property overall is outdated and could use some renovations. The rooms were not as comfortable as we would have liked and we wished the hotel had more options for lunch and dinner.
