Coco Reef Resort and Spa

The property was extremely comfortable, safe and great to get some rest and relaxation.

This resort had its “glory days” - the staff is extremely polite and attentive but the rooms while recently cosmetically refurbished need a total overhaul. The old wicker furniture/ and Grandmas bedsheets from the 1980s make it hard to feel comfortable. The beach is beautiful and the beach amenities leave nothing to be desired. Television reception was poor- haven’t watched TV with static reception since I was a kid-making almost everything unwatchable. Breakfast selection was good- but not great. It’s better than Magdalena that’s for sure in terms of upkeep!

Coco reef is a great vacation facility ,we arrived at 10:30 and were allowed to leave our bags at reception whilst waiting on check in time. Breakfast is great with panoramic views . Evening meals were not to our taste so we ate out every night .

This is a quite and peaceful and very accommodating hotel , very close to downtown dining very walkable

The Hotel is set in a beautiful location directly on a private beach. The bedrooms are a bit dated, and the bed in our room needed replacing. The room had an old and small TV. Some rooms may be updated,so ask. The included breakfast buffet was great, staff were great, and the beach bar/restaurant provided service on you on the beach. Would return if I could be guaranteed a better room

I like the licatin and private beach. Service needxto be improved with most staff not giving a smile, not being friendly in their service or communication. But there were a few that was very enjoyable to talk to. For the longest while the car park area is so rough and dark during the night, i fell onto one of the holes and nearly twisted my ankle. The hotel needs to look at that as if left as is it van be costly for them later. The room floor is really drab and old looking and its time to do some renovations. The private sea needs to have a better filtering system as moss is all over the bottom floor. Not enough displacement of sea water is taking place.

During our stay, we noticed is an old but fine hotel. The private beach is definely the plus. Our experience when asking questions wasnt great; the personnel looked confused, not well trained. They didn't know about expedia discount. The breakfast buffet is from 7 to 10, we went around 9 and there was no fruit, no side dishes, luckily the omelette chef was still there. We asked for 2 pina coladas and one rum and coke (smal plastic cup) and was charged 27.31USD. Beer outside the hotel is 2USD and drinks 4/5USD not 9.

The beach towels were clean. However, filthy beyond belief, stains on the sheets, bugs in the bed when you turn down the sheets, and mold everywhere: on the vanity countertop, bathroom floors, shower tiles, shower curtain, and even backed-up water in the tub. Just disgusting. There was also a heavy smell of mold mixed with an unidentifiable stench. The staff showed clear favoritism toward “certain” guests, and only a few members were remotely accommodating. This place is the epitome of false advertising. There’s absolutely nothing luxurious about it. The lobby furniture was old, chipped, and in desperate need of paint and cleaning. The entire property seemed rundown and in dire need of repair. The gift shops had an overwhelming musty odor. I truly feel for the staff who have to work there all day. If you enjoy loud street noises at night, this is the place for you. I didn’t feel safe here at all. The door lacked a latch, and there were no security staff visible. While the hotel grounds were relatively clean, the walkways and paths leading to the hotel were filthy and in need of power washing. The building itself had a cracked facade, and the fixtures throughout were outdated and poorly maintained. Lastly, the entire hotel needs a complete overhaul. It’s unsanitary, outdated, and in desperate need of a facelift. This was the worst hotel stay I’ve ever had. I’m genuinely shocked that Expedia gave this place such a high rating—did they even visit or stay? Extremely disappointed!

The location & access to the beach was excellent! The water in front of the beach was well protected & easy to swim in. The room was newly painted. The bathroom seemed a little dated but everything worked well. The breakfast had a lot of choices, eggs made to order in the spot.

Our toilet did not work and the room was dirty the first night we stayed there. It was a very difficult night without a functional toilet. They moved us to another room after much discussion. We asked for some sort of compensation to cover the major inconvenience of not having a functioning toilet but the hotel refused to provide any compensation or adjustments for that night.

Can an hotel be awarded minus stars? If it could, i would make the Coco Reef Resort a minus -4 star hotel. Coco Reef Resort is an, at best +2 star hotel masquerading as a 4+star hotel. The only thing going for this place is the view/location. The whole hotel is tired and listless. The staff, many, surly and unengaging. Only one or two of the staff could be called friendly. Paintings of ladies with large eyes all over the premises, particularly the one in our room, very off putting and weird. What's wrong with a local nature scene? The room, certainly tired and basic. Luckily we got a bar of soap and a couple towels. Shower, an embarassment. Most of the water leaked into drain, weak flow and tepid water. Noisy fridge, no mini bar. No milk to accompany the kettle and teabags. The grounds maintenance is done in dribs and drabs, so the 'relaxing' holiday is puncuated with the sound of strimmers and leaf blowers at any given time of day and every day. My dish, at the only dinner we had, was not fit to be served to the paying public. A 5 year old made my seafood penne but forgot the seafood apart from a dried up scallop and two mussles that probably died of old age and had the rubbery texture to prove it. I was both hungry and pissed off at the same time. Late checkout expensive at $US for 6 hours. Bit rich as hotel was almost empty.🙄 Everything in this hotel is expensive when quality is compared to price. Nothing is value for money. Owners clearly do not visit

The private beach makes your stay here perfect. Great options for vegetarians at the restaurant.

Can't complain at all. Food was exceptional and tasty. There was free snorkeling amd kayaking among other activities at the resort. Staff was amazing. Hotel was clean and conveniently located near all fast food places and walking distance to the airport. Would definitely recommend!

The altough well kept, upgrading the property will make it marvelous.

Ok for 1 night but a tired property with staff that seemed disinterested. Very strange. Lovely grounds and location though. Needs an overhaul and will be beautiful. AC was warm. Breakfast was very good. It each and every member of staff were disengaged from human interaction. Very odd- May need more customer support training?

The ambience was fantaastic.

Firstly they didn’t have our Expedia booking which made the check in process very difficult. Rooms were outdated and bedding didn’t look fresh. Bathroom was awful, taps were corroded and floors were dirty. There was no wifi in the rooms ! Only in the lobby. The tv in the room was also broken ! And so was the hairdryer on the last day. This was very irritating as kids were stuck in room without entertainment. Generally, we got the sense that there has been little investment into the hotel which is very evident as soon as you arrive.

This was a nice resort and a great vacation. The area is very walkable and safe, and the hotel is right on the beach. Out of all the options in Tobago, of which we drove around and saw most, this is the hotel we would stay at again. Thank you to the kind staff. If I could suggest anything, it would be to improve the on resort lunch and dinner offerings. Breakfast was great. Lunch/Dinner food is good, but they know it is overpriced

Didn't like the enclosed sea bed, mushy and morsy. Didn't like maintainance condition of the lawn tennis facility and bushy access path. Didn't like wanting to use beach volley ball facility but no balls available on whole premises to be used.

Great location, lovely beach, beautiful view of the sea. Friendly staff, always willing to help.
