Very nice place to stay. Nico , the manager was very attentive to all our needs. The location is close to lots of restaraunts, and famouse maho beach where planes fly over. The beach in front of cocovaa is very nice with beach chairs and drink service from d's. The runway being close is very entertaining, didnt bother us with the noise. Airport is shut down all night. I would stay there again

Cocovaa was the perfect place for us to stay! We loved spending our mornings out on the patio with a fresh croissant, coffee, and orange juice, that they provided for us. We were visited by an iguana a few times which was pretty awesome! The host Nico was very friendly, and kept checking in to make sure we were happy. The private beach was beautiful and being able to see the planes take off was pretty cool too. We honestly can’t wait to stay at Cocovaa again!

Very lovely hotel, need more improvement. Hard to get a taxi late at night. Perfect for a couple that just want a vacation to get to know each other. I wish there was a microwave in the room to warm up left overs. This beach boutique is directly on the beach and a fantastic restaurant right outside of the hotel. The staff need to get a little better and this will be my perfect spot on the whole island. Most important to enjoy other area please rent a car. It is a little difficult to move around.

We stayed from Monday through Saturday and only had room service once. They don’t provide the option to have room service or state in the reservation you only get your room cleaned once. It’s a beach front location it’s inevitable not to get sand on the floor and yet we only had room service once and The only day we had room service the lady walked in and stayed meanwhile we were still getting ready & asking to keep my shoes while I’m getting ready.

The beach is amazing!!! Soft sand and calm water. The airport is right there, so if you dont want to see the airplanes this might not be for you. The ac is ice cold, i had to get a spare balnket out of the closet. I would absolutely recommend and go back!

You can’t lock the main door. I was scared for my life when I went to bed, especially being in a foreign country. The ac also is nonexistent which was frustrating. Loved that was it was right on the beach and a convenient beach bar just a feet away, my fav part. The staff was great and kind as well. Wouldn’t book again unless the ac is installed and there is some sort of lock on the inside of the unit.
