Bedding is so uncomfortable, pay extra if you want A.C. and the staff enters the room to turn it off if you’re not watching. Just not a place I ever attempt to stay again.

I stayed here for two weeks and enjoyed every day. All of the staff was pleasant and always helpful whenever needed. The resort its self is very relaxing and the pools are great. The rooms are a little old but still nice and comfortable. It's a short walk to the beach and if you need a ride anywhere, There is always a jeep or tricycle on the street. I plan to stay here again on my next trip..

I stayed with my family over New Years! This place could be amazing although needs a few maintenance updates. The staff need to be focused on their jobs, we had bottle and cups outside our room until we eventually cleared ourselves. They only manned the kitchen at breakfast had to find them at lunchtimes. Toilet seat broken in room and water pressure low in shower.

Coco Grove Nature Resort and Spa isn't look what it showed in the website. There aminities that are nit working like the billiard area. The linens smell horrible, stinky. The water isn't working fine. The property is a total mess or shall I say dirty. The restaurant is dirty, the tables in the morning were very dirty. It seems they were not cleaning it at night so the next morning it's clean and ready for the guest to eat breakfast. The TVs were obsolete and it only has one local channel. The aircons were too old and cannot cool the room. We've requested to transfer another room due to aircon malfunction, nit cooling our room. But to our dismay the other room we moved in was just the same with the previous. So disgusting, our vacation turned into nightmare.

No restaurant to eat. Hot showers are not working
Worst resort hotel in the island. We booked 5 rooms in this hotel expecting that they have a beach in their resort as shown in the internet. But the beach is located on another resort. They have no restaurant ti dine with, hit and cold showers are not working (in all rooms), lots of bugs inside the room, and air inside the room is sofocating because their aiconditions are barely working. They also have a delapidated billard table and a pool overlooking deck which look like a murder scene. Read comments first before you book in this place to save your vacation for beiing the worst experience in your life.

Satisfied guest
Was there with my wife and mother-in-law we enjoyed the stay and would come back someday close to the beach and has a good clean pool, hope that they would start taking credit cards like place next door, but from reviews I have seen I think this place is improving, at least I think so. Water heater was only thing that I was unhappy with, AC was great room and beds where clean and comfortable
Response from The Management on 9 May,2018
Thank you very much for your comment. It is very important to us. We are on the process of repairing the water line. Water heater is not broken, it is the water pressure that is weak therefore water heater is not working. Have a wonderful day! We looking forward in serving you again in the near future.

Booked 1 night at first but added another night I really enjoyed the stay and I would definitely stay there again, hopefully sooner rather than later, few things are definitely in need some maintenance, and would be great plus if they would accept credit card at the restaurant

The hotel doesn’t claim to be 5 star so the facilities are basic, but it’s very clean, very relaxed and I loved it. The staff are great so if you go expecting a simple comfortable place to sleep while you explore the island then it’s great. Plus the pools are a bonus

Pay more than suffer at Coco Grove
7:25am waiting for breakfast, 8:53am food was served cold! Pool was dirty looks like someone did the laundry in the pool. Water pressure was such a pain. Dirty utensils. The hotel was quite dark. Only has 2 receptionists who appeared to be the cook as well. You have to pay 100php to use the billiards even if you are checked in. Dog poops are everywhere. Will never recommend the resort to anyone. Just pay more to other great hotels nearby.

Nice staff but a lot to improve
First of all let's say that everybody that worked there was helpull and friendly to us. Sadly, that's the only positive thing we can say. The restaurant is only opened for breakfast. The facilities are full of stray dogs (minimum 5) who enter the restaurant amd stay there and they also bark at nigh making it very difficult to sleep. The beds have a very thin and hard matresse. For me it was very unconfortable. The breakfast was included in the reservation for three people and when we arrived, they told us only 2 breakfasts where included. They fixed that. The only breakfast included was the filipino onr, althought we cod modifie it a little to our taste. The WC didn't work. They fixed it on the second day. During eveng hours, the lights of the facilities are turned off (it's dark from 6 pm there). You have to go to another hotel to have dinner or lunch. On the whole, the rooms and facilities were far poorer that what you cold expect from the pictures

Relaxing Vacation
It was my first time in Camotes. I chose to stay at Coco Grove because it was close to the beach. I really enjoyed my week there. The staff was very friendly. The menu is simple and has a good variety. The food was good. They are also next to 2 other resorts that you can dine at as well. It is an extremely short walk to the beach. There are a couple of stores to buy things. There are also a lot of multicabs and motos around if you want to tour the island. I will return. It was the most peaceful vacation I have ever had.

Ich kann leider keine positive Empfehlung geben.
Es ist nicht so einfach Coco Grove zu beurteilen. Auf den ersten Blick sieht Alles sehr gut aus. Mehrere Pools, welche auch gereinigt werden. Das inklusive Frühstück ist ein phillipinisches Frühstück. Wer etwas Anderes möchte muss dann dafür zahlen, aber was man dann erhält ist schwach. Am Pool sind Liegen aber kein erkennbare Service. Um 19 Uhr geht das gesamte Personal nach Hause und nur noch ein Mann von der Security ist da. Zum Glück kann man im Bamboo Cafe, im benachbarten Resort, Abendessen bekommen. Ich hatte den Eindruck der Eigentümer, das Management, kümmert sich nicht richtig um die Zufriedenheit der Gäste.
