This place is so, so, so amazing. The hosts are absolutely exceptional human beings. This is the only place you need to stay if you visit Playa Ocotal or the surrounding areas. You will be disappointed if you choose anywhere else! This place really is magical. It's quiet, it has a great view, great pool, and the breakfast is the best I had on my vacation. I also had dinner here, it was the best meal we had hands down, with a great bottle of wine, with a view to die for.

Very nice, clean accommodation in a central location, just off the really busy area of playa Tamarindo, so it’s quiet at night. Everything is still within easy walking distance. Our room had a large comfortable king size bed and a functional mini kitchen. Also the staff were incredibly kind and helpful and there are 6 parking spots at the back of the hotel property which are free and convenient.

Charming hotel, very well kept and amazing helpful staff. Lovely quiet beach front nearby with a few decent dining options there. Quiet chill place to relax, mostly an adult hotel overall it seems and with some nice live entertainment on weekends. Close enough to Coco beach for more dining options and beach stuff plus a very decent grocery store. Was great as a low key home base for this trip and very easy to and from the airport.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a beach hotel in Coco cost?
Prices for beach hotels in Coco vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $64 on Expedia. You're likely to find lower rates if you're travelling during the off-peak season or mid-week. Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Coco is best to stay in for beaches?
The best area to stay in Coco for beaches is the main beachfront strip in Playas del Coco itself, particularly the northern end, or the more secluded Playa Hermosa just a short drive away.
Playas del Coco's main beach is long and crescent-shaped, offering easy access to the water directly from many accommodations. You'll find a lively promenade running along the sand with a good selection of restaurants and bars right on the beach, especially near the main town centre. This area is very convenient for those who want to step straight onto the sand and enjoy the local atmosphere.
Couples looking for a mix of convenience and beach access will find Playas del Coco appealing. You can easily walk to the beach, enjoy a sunset drink at a beachfront establishment, and have a wide choice of dining options within a short stroll. Many boat tours and water activities also depart directly from this beach.
For those seeking a more tranquil beach experience, Playa Hermosa is an excellent alternative. Located just a 10-minute drive north of Playas del Coco, this beach is known for its calm waters and lush surroundings. It's a quieter bay, superb for swimming, paddleboarding, and simply relaxing away from the busier spots.
Families often prefer Playa Hermosa due to its gentle waves and less crowded environment, making it ideal for children to play safely.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Coco?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Coco is during the dry season, from December to April. This period offers consistently sunny days and minimal rainfall, with average temperatures around 30°C. These conditions are ideal for enjoying the beach, swimming, and various water sports like snorkelling or diving.
During the dry season, the ocean is typically calm and clear, making it great for boat tours and exploring the coastline. Many travellers appreciate this time for its reliable weather, ensuring uninterrupted days by the pool or on the sand. Securing reservations for prime beachfront accommodations and popular excursions well in advance is highly recommended due to the increased demand.
May presents a fantastic alternative, bridging the dry season with the start of the green season. While you might experience occasional afternoon showers, the mornings are usually bright and sunny, with temperatures still hovering around 30°C. This shoulder month offers the benefit of lush, vibrant landscapes and the opportunity to find better value on luxurious beach hotels.
What beach activities should we do in Coco?
The best beach activities to do in Coco involve exploring its beautiful coastline and vibrant marine life. These activities are great for those who enjoy being on or in the water.
For couples looking for a romantic experience, a sunset sailing trip is a lovely option. Many local operators offer tours that depart from Playas del Coco, sailing along the coast as the sun sets over the Pacific. These trips often include drinks and snacks, providing a relaxed way to enjoy the scenery and each other's company. Some even offer snorkelling opportunities before the sun goes down.
Families with older children will find snorkelling or diving trips to be an exciting adventure. The waters around Coco are filled with colourful fish, and various tour operators can take you to nearby spots like Monkey Head for excellent underwater viewing. These excursions typically include equipment hire and guidance, making it accessible even for those new to snorkelling or diving.
For those who prefer to stay active above the water, paddleboarding or kayaking around the bay is a great choice. You can rent equipment directly on Playas del Coco and explore the calm waters at your own pace.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Coco as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it’s wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Coco for you.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Coco with Expedia?
