Loved my stay at Coco Beach Resort, and the location couldn't have been better. So close to all the restaurants, shops, and the beach. Service was very friendly. I ended up staying for a week and my room wasn't cleaned once during that time or towels replaced, but I'm sure they would have had I asked. Was very clean when I moved in!

The place is like an average motel. Location is good, center of coco beach, but it gets noisy at night (people drinking in the street, yelling). The room was old, not a lot of lighting. AC worked great. For one night, it was ok. The posting mentioned parking, but when we asked for it, it was a few buildings away in the back of a property, looked like a ditch. We parked on the street instead. There is no elevator for luggage… There’s a casino downstairs. Didn’t try breakfast.

At first we had to go across the street for breakfast, the last week it changes and was now on the property. The property kept very clean, it was convenient to get any thing you wanted around the area. It was a 5 minutes walk to the beach.

Had an issue with an online booking and staff not only would not help, they kept the money and said “so sorry”. Booked the two rooms we asked for right out from under us while we waited in the lobby with our luggage and then offered no suggestions for transportation or assistance in finding other accommodations. We loved our stay in Costa Rica and at this hotel was the only time we had a bad experience of any type.

Had to book when flight was cancelled. All places were booked so had to book this place. Other than having an available room in a crisis situation I would NEVER stay here again. Dirty, noisy, unsafe, dark. Not a good place.

Staff services were good. The condition of the property was disappointing although cleanliness and comfortable beds was a plus. The location and age of the hotel is suboptimal. Pool is located a couple of miles away and requires a taxi ride to access.

This hotel was okay as the room was clean enough, it had A/C and it was centrally located. The downsides are that it is a 5 minute walk to the beach and there is no pool at the hotel. (our plumbing in our room worked but the toilet did back up once and it definitely needs some work) For our family, we wish we had stayed at a hotel right on the beach that also had a pool. We did use the Coco Bay club one day (free access if you are staying at the hotel). It was a 20 minute walk away but was worth it to use the pool and play tennis/pickleball.
