I honestly felt like I was at home. The king bed was very comfortable and the small snacks at reception were perfect. We had drinks at the bar next door which was great and the staff as well there is very welcoming. Definitely would stay again on the near future!

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.

Just stayed one night due to a flight cancellation, beautiful beach, but the structure is aged. It was clean, but the AC did not cool the room. Outdoor spaces are nice. Could not get TV to work.

There was clear water damage to the ceiling of the room from leaking. Leaking that also stained the sofa below. Made the room uncomfortable to stay in.

CocoVaa is a wonderful little boutique hotel. Right on the beach front but also right by the airport. You have the calm of the beach out the front terrace and the excitement of planes coming and going from the back terrace. I enjoyed the two. Very helpful and nice staff. Great location, comfortable and it was perfect for my stay. I would absolutely stay there again.
