Private Pool vs No Pool: What the Upgrade Gets You
At Cocobay Resort, choosing a private pool cottage is about prioritizing privacy and your own personal Caribbean oasis. The decision comes down to whether you want ultimate seclusion or prefer to use the resort's stunning infinity pool and put budget toward other experiences.
Private pool perks (what guests love)
- Ultimate privacy: your own plunge pool for couples' time and sunrise swims
- Terrace luxury: swim whenever you want without sharing space
- Romantic atmosphere: perfect for honeymoons and special celebrations
- Photography moments: stunning backdrop for vacation photos
- Best for longer stays: the pool feels more valuable when you're there 5–7 nights
Rule of thumb: If privacy and romantic seclusion are priorities, a private pool cottage is worth the upgrade—especially at Cocobay's intimate 50-cottage scale.
When non-pool cottages make more sense
- You'll spend most of your time at the infinity pool and beach anyway
- You're staying just 2–3 nights and won't use a private pool enough
- You'd rather put budget into spa treatments, excursions, or romantic dinners
- You prefer the social vibe of the main infinity pool overlooking Valley Church Beach
Value move: Book a Garden View or Deluxe View Cottage and spend the difference on sunset dinners at Cocobay Cliffside Restaurant or a couples massage.
