    It's a little bit out of the way but that's the price you pay for serenity and a view

    Great spot. Good pool. Good food. Very helpful staff.

    Absolutely loved everything here!

    Me and my friends had a delightful stay at Cocovana. Everything is superb--- the place has a peaceful and serene ambiance, clean room, delicious food (we highly recommend their pancakes, tapa, tinola, pizza and curry!!!!) and very accomodating and proactive staff. Sarah, Anna and Tim are such great hosts! They gave us a warm welcome and were always there to assist us. You will definitely feel at home as the hosts will go out of their way to make sure you are looked after! The sunset view is so stunning and relaxing and one of the best sunset views we have experienced. Wifi is fast and we did not encounter any problems at all! We also loved the fact that they have motorbike rentals which gave us the autonomy to explore nearby areas. We also had a refreshing dip in their pool after we played billiards (and sung our favorite songs in their videoke/karaoke!!). The place also offers tours to different islands so everything was easy breezy! We will definitely book again here with my friends. Value for money indeed!

    Location is a bit far off everything, I would recommend renting a motorbike to get around the island.

    Nested right next to the sea, you can easily overlook the place when driving along the street. It's a little paradise in itself. Food was amazing and the beds very comfortable (we stayed in the family room on top of the dorm). Bathrooms are shared for the doorm and the family room - they seem a bit rustic but are clean and do the job. The staff is super nice and helpful! The pool is great (fresh water!) and offers an amazing sunset view!

    Nothing really. We knew going in that there were no private bathrooms. Having said that the shared bathrooms are very clean and well maintained.

    The location is superb. The site is right on the ocean, built into the hillside with multilevel areas connected by stairs. The pictures don’t do it justice, the views are great. The place has an authentic rustic feel, with a great vibe. Lots of happy guests and staff who seem to love what they do. Awesome to hear them belting tunes from the kitchen. The infinity pool is a lovely place to hang out, cool off and take advantage of happy hour cocktails. The food is excellent, freshly prepared and fairly priced.

    Pool area was really nice and views so good! Sunset was the best from here! I liked the restaurant also. Staff was super friendly and they also have a small hike to Cocovana hilltop. Unfortunately swimming wasn't possible when I was there, due to so many jellyfish. Free water included.

    The only minus was very low water pressure in the private shower and the toilet (sometimes we needed to use the shared bathroom, but it's ok as it was clean).

    Comfortable and clean, with beautiful sea view from the villa (and common areas). Staff is very friendly and helpful, they arranged our transport, scooter rent and tours. Location is a bit far away from Coron town, but it offers a serene environment. Great food and cocktails!

    warm, friendly staff and great sunset views ❤️

    Staying in the 8 person dorms had it's upsides and downsides. Although a great value for money, there is a smaller room above the dorm and the stairs and the ceiling were super loud every time someone went up or down or walked around the room. For the most part this could be ignored (after quiet time, between 9 and midnight it was almost impossible to not hear) with noise cancelling headphones but if you are a light sleeper I would recommend one of their private bungalows.

    The staff (CK, Sarah, Joy, Joseph & Hilda) made the stay worth while. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming and helpful arranging tours and rides and didn't push anything on you. The food that came out of the kitchen was top notch every time. Highly recommend the french toast for breakfast ❤️💯. The view from the bar at breakfast and during sunset was a huge benefit and they have a pool table in the upstairs bar area that is a great addition to the space. Another bonus was having cold and hot water available at all times in the restaurant area. Chill and social space without being too much of a party.

    Its way to far from everywhere, you need a motorbike and to drive for 1h minimum to go join tours and excursions.

    Its perfect if you look for a place to do nothing and just relax for a few days

    This place is a true gem, one of the best we have stayed in during our 1 month trip in Philippines. The staff is great, the meals are cheap & so tasty. The atmosphere was amazing. Yes it is a bit far from Coron Town but that's what makes it so special & the reason why they are able to offer less touristy activities that you might never hear of if you only stay in Coron Town. That's a place I will recommend to any friend planning to visit Philippines.

    The location is amazing. It’s a little oasis. Great views. Huts are basic but good. There is a little restaurant so you don’t have to go out if you don’t want to. Go can pay by card. Absolutely loved our stay.

    the bed was very small for 2 people and our sheet was only for 1 person. you need a scooter if you'd like to explore, it is very secluded. There is not really anything to do in the evenings but that was ok for us. The restaurant was kind of expensive as they charge you also the extra service fee and there are no other options in the area

    the view was really nice and the pool area was good to relax and watch the stunning sunset. we had a bamboo hut overlooking the sea which was beautiful. the staff was very friendly and happy to arrange everything for us. the food was delicious!
