Great place clean big rooms, nice restaurant right on the beach, my only complaint is the room doesn’t have sound proof, is hard to sleep when you hear the planes landing.

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!

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!

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.

Perfect weekend getaway
Excellent location. Literally on the beach, with an excellent patio area. Restaurant next door is 20 steps from the room, and free beach chairs and umbrella if you eat/drink there.

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.

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.

Excellent spot for an overnight stopover, is very convenient for the airport. Beach was deserted in the evening and upto 10.30 in the morning (the cruise ship tours arrived at 11.00).
The bar next door wasn't serving food in the evening so we had to walk 15 minutes to Maho beach.
