10/10 Excellent
"In a country that is famous for the friendliness of the people, it seems hard to stand out - but the staff at Hotel Cocomar was outstanding! The current owners bought it about two years ago, and have been fixing it up. They were super hospitable and accommodating. Time after time they took an extra step to make our stay better "
