“Desencanto con la realidad”
+Precio muy elevado para el servicio y mini-cuartos que ofrecen. Las fotos de la oferta son engañosas, las áreas exteriores requieren urgente mantenimiento, la limpieza en los cuartos no es óptima.
“Habitación pequeña ubicada en una linda playa”
+Una maravillosa playa no muy lejos de San del Sur. La pasamos muy bien es un lugar perfecto para descansar y relajarse. La habitación del hotel aunque pequeña y a aceptable para una familiar. tiene una cocina compartida bien equipada.
“Exquisite location”
+The location is fabulous- we were in one of the Cangrego units right by the beach & loved it. That being said, our experience with the hotel wasn't 100% positive. We had arranged for a taxi from the hotel to meet us at the border, but were met first by a scammer, who greeted us by name, so we thought he was the taxi driver. He eventually made clear that he wanted us to pay him $20 per person to "help us through the border". He was a friend of the taxi driver apparently, & they were working together. We refused his help but he still grabbed our bags & disappeared with them across the border, making for a long, tension-filled saga that gave us a bad feeling about the hotel before we had even arrived. Once we did arrive, there were weird money-saving things: - only 3 towels were provided for a 4-person reservation, and no toiletries - there was no top sheet for the second bed (a pull-out for our kids), & the hotel said none was available. At our insistence they eventually found a light cotton blanket. - housekeping is an additional $20/day, which wasn't made clear in our reservation - the "coffee provided in room" turned out to be just one packet of coffee for 4 nights, and no coffee
“Beautiful location unusual hotel”
+This is a somewhat unusual hotel; rooms are separate little bungalows set amongst tropical greenery a short walk up from the amazing beach, while the area closest to it seems to be taken up with very expensive scattered beach houses. As it is so green, it is a given that you are going to come across insects and spiders at some point and be prepared for that. Although the rooms are well cleaned and screened they inevitably do get in and just need ushering out again occasionally.The complex is large and sporadically guarded. The area feels safe enough to walk around in at night- a very local feel, but you definitely need a torch. Unlike beaches further north you can swim safely here or watch the amazing sunsets. The hotel restaurant is a great place to hang out with its own hammocks, longers and two pools- food and drink pricey, but you do get the view. NB: hotel reception is 8am to 5pm and there is no real reception/communal area except for the restaurant. We booked one night and stayed for three. Our little cabin was well appointed with tv, wifi, two fans and AC, separate shower and toilet, 2 bunk and one small double beds, an outside seating area and use of a well appointed kitche
“experiencia insólito habitación dos había alacrán”
+Experiencia insólito en la habitación dos había alacrán en el clóset y avispas .
“Totally in the nature”
+Lovely quiet place to relax! The trip on the white road worth it. Gorgeous beach! Cozy bungalow.
“Roughing it”
+A little too much nature for our taste. Windows not sealed enough to keep certain insects out of the room. Staff courteous and helpful.
“Hotel en Playa hermosa y tranquila”
+Gracias a una oferta de Hoteles.com pude disfrutar 3 días en la hermosa y tranquila Playa El Coco. Un lugar ideal para estar alejado de todo disfrutando del mar, la playa, la luna y estrellas, las hamacas, la pileta (de buen tamaño) y los sabrosos pescados del restaurante. En un pequeño pero cómodo bugalow con aire acondicionado y ventilador, buen wi fi (en el cuarto, recepción y restaurante), tv pequeña con señal satelital,cama grande y 2 cuchetas, sillón, mesita ratona, ventanas con mosquitero, el baño separado en dos cubículos para poder usar por separado la ducha. Afuera un pequeño quincho con mecedoras. Incluia el desayuno y un 10 % de descuento en los gastos del restaurante que por ser un lugar aislado tenía muy buena comida (especialmente pescado) pero precios un tanto altos. Había un mini mercado en la entrada del complejo donde comprar bebidas y alimentos. Algunas de las opciones de alojamiento están sobre la misma playa, otras como la mía apenas a unos 200 mts. en medio de los árboles. El complejo está a unos 15/17 km de San Juan del Sur y la mayoría del camino es de tierra. Se puede llegar con los buses (lentos) que salen desde Rivas o San Juan del Sur con destino a Osti
“Had fun.”
+Saw turtles lay eggs, walkded to La Flor. Great little supermarket at hotel for great kitchen (everything you can think of is there: blender, expresso machine, oven, microwave, dishes, expensive stainless cookware, etc). Waiters are great and housekeeping got better each day. No complaints.
“Nice Stay at Playa Coco, south of San Juan Del Sur”
+We were looking for a relaxing, peaceful place to say around San Juan del Sur, and we certainly found it at Parque Maritimo el Coco. We stayed in Cangreo #3, one of three connected bungalows right on the beach. Our 4 year old loved being able to go out the door and find sand dollars, hermit crabs, and shells on the beach, while we watched above from the deck. Each morning, we walked a couple of minutes on the beach to go to the hotel restaurant for breakfast - a standard rice/beans/egg/ coffee/fruit juice that was included with the room. There was also a small swimming pool next to the restaurant on the beach that our 1 year old and 4 year old enjoyed. Our bungalow was clean enough, and it was comfortable (ceiling fans, air conditioning, decent queen bed, sofa/futon, deck with table and chairs). The kitchen was equipped with a small fridge, gas stove, and pots and pans. There was wifi, though the service seemed intermittent. A small television had cable with many channels. My only complaint was that a couple times while showering, the water became quite smelly. Other than that, it was a great stay and I look forward to returning.
