5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 May 2013 NEW

HOTEL: Small but very nice. Everything was clean and organized. Our group of 4 liked that the resort was on the smaller side because within a week we knew where everything was located and it was easy to make friends and be able to find them again throughout the week (unlike some big resorts where you get lost/can't find people)....

We enjoyed the week at Grand Coco Bay even though there were a few hiccups. After the first day we did not get coffee refill packets in our room.

We stayed at this hotel for one week and really loved it. Room was nice but quite functional. For me it's important that it's clean and that it really was. The same applied for the whole area.
