The rooms don’t have AC but have fans. It wasn’t a problem for us, but could be for some. The breakfast was good and had more than enough to fill up. The check in staff speak english, and there is a lot to do in Coco.

This is a budget beach hotel. Directly on the beach you have the best spot for breakfast, overlooking the ocean. We had an AC unit in our room, but no hot water. It is not fancy. As long as you accept that going in, you’ll have a great time. The parking was free and convenient. The breakfast was fine. I was with my husband for a dive course and for that it was great. Would not recommend for a romantic escape.

I got the heads-up that there was no AC in the room I booked, so I brought my own fan, plus used the hotel fans, and made it work. I would recommend you do the same. The beach is RIGHT there, so I really enjoyed the view and walking along the beach every day. The staff is great. I left something in my room after check out, and they were very quick to contact me to let me know! Breakfast every day was the perfect start to adventures, and it was very handy to have the front desk schedule a car to get me back to the airport. Good for relaxation, away from the noisy birds, which are everywhere anyway. Would love to stay again!

Right on the beach so location is excellent, free private parking (don’t pay any of the attendants!!) nice breakfast included and they were kind enough to make it a little earlier when I had to get up early for an activity. our room was next to the reception, a bit dark but tidy. Bed was ok, not great. No hot water but was unnecessary for us. Great value for money overall!

I did not stay here but heard they had really good breakfast. So we went down there and it ended up being really good. We got there before they opened, the girl offered me coffee and I excepted and told her we would wait till they opened for breakfast. Everything was really good and the coffee was really smooth and tasty. The price was reasonable and the service was great! I told them we would be back and I held up my end and went back two days later. Same results, really really good. Give it a try. You will like it!

Very good hotel to stay in Playa del Coco. I took the package to go diving with Deep Blue dive shop. Their offer is very competitive, breakfast is included, and I even had a room with AC. There’s a big terrasse and balcony area to chill after a beach day shared for all hotel members. There’s no hot water but that’s completely fine as the days are so warm there. Only con is that my room was not bright and I always had to light up the lights even during the day
