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!
