GUEST REVIEWS

Reiner Gentz and Antje Speitel Germany, October 2009

Dear Cocos, “Thank you for a wonderful vacation. The ambience at Cocos is special & unique and the hospitality of the staff outstanding, they are always smiling and friendly and in a good mood. In particular, Acari who is always straightening out beach chairs and towels while guests are at lunch. We especially enjoyed the varied cuisine and much appreciated the attention to detail. This was a holiday in paradise. We'll be back.”

"From the first moment we set foot at Cocos, all the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Our cottage was delightful, neat and clean with an absolutely outstanding view. The food was tremendous from breakfast through dinner, with many delightful options and great local and international flavors. The beach and amenities were top-notch and above all else, the attentive and genuinely kind staff made leaving Cocos feel like leaving the company of good friends. Our stay with you all was so very memorable... great people, great food and wonderful atmosphere! Both of us are still smiling and relaxed. We cannot wait to head back".

Dear Cocos, “This was our second visit in a year. After the first visit we just knew we had to come back, and found it every bit as charming as the first visit. If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing vacation then you need look no further. With its simplistic charm, the hotel set on a hillside is in an ideal location with its own area of Jolly Beach and a beautiful setting sun to look onto from your balcony. The food is wonderful and the staff are very warm and friendly. We shall definitely be coming back."

Dear Cocos,

“Alison and I just wanted to say, "thank you" properly to everyone at Cocos who made our stay so memorable. Cocos is a true Caribbean idyll and gives an experience that I don't think you'd get anywhere else. Some people want simple elegance - and I think that is exactly what you provide. The rooms were great.The food was excellent. And, the atmosphere was so relaxing and secure. Thanks again - and have a dark rum over ice for me!”
