Absolutely an incredible stay. I stayed in one of their waterfront villas, and it was amazing! Great shower, a jacuzzi, kitchen, even a washer and dryer! All in all the best place to stay in Port Vila

This place is amazing if you want a nice quiet spot out of town. Plenty of buses go past to catch into town. Grocery store next door an a mama fruit an veggie stall across the road. Staff are awesome help you with all your questions.

It is starting to get a bit run down from lack of maintenance .

Everything was exceptional, only thing that I found odd was the restaurant service. Baby chair would be left unclean from the night before. Had to ask
Multiple times to get something to drink with my meal. We ended up finishing our meals and still had to wait for our drinks.

The room was good, clean and quiet. The reception service was also good and friendly. Only the restaurant was below average, the quality of food and service can be improved.

We stayed here for 7 nights. It is a beautiful property, very easy to relax and be in nature. Staff were helpful and friendly. Conveniently located next to groceries, fresh produce market and bus stops.
Daily housekeeping seemed to be by request only. The rooms we stayed in both had issues (missing amenities or appliances in disrepair) but we would likely come again. If you have issues, raise them with Ros and she will get onto it.
The pool was a winner for our kids. Recommend the vegetable frittata and banana pancakes for breakfast!

we had a 7-night stay in a large villa with beautiful water views, breakfast has a limited choice, it's sad the lagoon is polluted and not suitable for swimming, overall, a relaxing stay
10.0
I stayed here 5 years ago, just before the current owners purchased the property. The outdoor spaces and reception have had a lot of upgrades and look fantastic, especially the pool. The room we stayed in doesn't look like it's had any upgrades besides a new lounge suite and new washing machine (with chinese only language on the controls), but these over the water rooms were still in great shape. However the other rooms have railings on the verandah missing/damaged and look like they need some TLC. The staff were all fantastic and very eager to assist in anyway possible.
The main let down was the choice of items on the menu, half of which were out of stock and we were told they would not be replenished during our stay as they only are able to shop one day per week, so once they run out, it's out for the week. Not great in a beautiful country known for it's fresh meat, fruit and vegetables.
However, I would stay here again as it's very good value for money and the staff make your stay as pleasureable as possible

We found it difficult contacting the resort while booking online. The reply on Hotels.com would not send and the resort email address was not the one that I finally got a reply from after phoning from NZ and speaking to Thomas who was very helpful. Our check-in with Thomas when we arrived was quick and efficient. This resort like most is not long reopened after Covid restrictions and is obviously still going through refurbishment. Our water view resort studio was good with a lovely view. The bed was comfortable but the fold out sofa bed in the lounge was a bit saggy and difficult for my old tall frame to get in and out of!! The bathroom was good and the shower great with excellent water pressure. Restaurant and pool areas were great. Service especially from Helen, Gianne and chef Mark was wonderful. Once this resort gets the refurbishing completed and tourism kicks in again it will be even better but for the tariff we paid, we were more than satisfied. Would we stay here again?? .... yes we would!

The place is really beautiful! We stayed in the waterfront villa for 5 nights and it was simply perfect! The staff is very friendly and helpful, always smiling and kind! The restaurant is really cool and the food is tasty! Would totally come back another time for sure!

The resort has been sold since the Covid pandemic. The new owners live in Hong Kong and appear to have delegated management to the people who own a supermarket chain. The lack of competent and experienced on-site management means that service is sometimes slow and disorganised. The owners must address this situation urgently to ensure acceptable standards are maintained.

Our stay at Cocomo was really good, the staff and management went completely out of their way to help us however they could. I can't recommend This resort enough in terms of friendlyness, cleanliness and awesome location.

Building works proceeding was a downer. Dont trust the room photos on the web, they are all mixed up. The room we thought we had booked was different.

We spent 5 days in total. First we stayed in room for 2. The room was clean and comfortable. Was airconditioned and the bathroom looked recently renovated. The last 2 nights we had to move to family room. The room was clean but was smelling of cigarettes. The pillows were saturated with the smell. This bothered the whole family, especially the kids.
There is a restaurant in the resort. However, the quality of the food was not good and choice / variety was very very poor. We ate only once and had to look for another place to eat.
The garden in the resort was well maintained. However the pool was closed for cleaning most of the days and the kayaks were not operational. So there was no any entertainment in the resort. On positive side the Tennis courts were cross the road and next to the resort was a large supermarket which was very convenient. The WiFi was available and reliable.

Our accomodation overlooked the beautiful secluded waterfront and was quite comfortable with the basic amenities however but definitely no frills, the decor was outdated, the TV had only 2 working channels of which one was blurry. Our bathroom door would not close properly and after a daily house keeping left, basic toiletries were not replenished.
The staff were pleasant but no more than that and at our buffett breakfast, which was very basic, we were required to continually ask for additional items.
Overall, it was basic but would not return.

Our stay was fabulous. The staff are super nice. We stayed in the water bungalow. It had everything, a little kitchen and washer and dryer. We had starfish and coral right outside our door. Supermarket is next door. There is kayaking and large chess at the resort. We played with the resort cat and there is a playground for the little ones. The resort is small but super relaxing!

The staff made a real effort to learn my name and make me feel welcome. Very nice place with some great views over the river! Awesome 😁 thanks for having me!

Our Cocomo Resort stay was made one of our best because of two things. First was the staff who went way beyond what we have had in other places.Special thanks to Anne and Myra in the office and Arnie and the girls in the dining area. Second, the unit we had beside the lagoon was so restful and like our own little haven. The little fish we could feed when sitting on the deck and being able to walk straight into the water, a few outrigger canoes going past and the locals crab fishing. The unit was described as "luxury" but needs a lot of nornal maintanance to bring it up to standard. No milk in the fridge,not seviced on Sunday, heat pump dripping water, roller blinds on front are beyond fixing to make them work, no phone, no deck or side lights working (were fixed), side door wouldn't slide(fixed), outside shower area covered in rubbish and lounger chairs rotting away. There was a new resort manager started the day we arrived and she appears to be trying to raise the general appearance of the resort. The unkept lawns and paths were being tidied up making the whole area really nice, but one groundsman carn't maintain it to that standard. One of the owners from Hong Kong was there also and has made a cooked breakfast alternative. Unfortunatel the continental breakfast was diminished. The banana pancakes as often referred to are very good. The fresh fruit was cut to a small cut up portion. A great resort area overlooking the lagoon with staff I would hire anywhere in the world.

This property is outdated and run down. Nothing is good about it, all the facilities are either not functioning or closed. Very very disappointed. Overly priced accommodation and extremely expensive food in the restaurant. There are rats and dogs running around the grounds, making it very difficult for children. Restaurant kitchen staff takes ages to prepare the order. Do not book this property by getting impressed by the photos as they were taken at least ten years before. Currently it is an utter rubbish. Actually I am seriously considering to complain hotels.com to remove this property from their listing.

The resort is past its heyday - everything is rundown (furniture, facilities, appliances), which is a pity because it would not take much to modernize things, for example the garden furniture. The spa was out of order and very dirty. Wifi a bit slow, but normally reliable. Breakfast is too simple and repetitive, nowhere near the 4 stars the resort claims to be. The lagoon is a nice location, but jellyfish appear to be abundant, so it's a bit of a risk. While it is a bit far from downtown, it's really easy to catch a bus/van and in about 5 minutes you're in the centre of Port Vila. Big supermarket really close is a plus, but the condition of the roads in the area is dreadful. Hard to justify the nightly rate or its 4-star status.

Fantastic but a bit disorganised in the kitchen

Although we were delayed by a day and half due to air nz and weather we had a great stay. Turned up late after midnight to a great room and a complimentary bottle of wine. Next evening we were made extra welcome by Tyrone and the team with a special dinner for two as it was our 20th Wedding anniversary holiday which had started off not too great in NZ. Local people are welcoming and will help you get where you need to and a good source of local history.
Good places to snorkel, lots of fresh produce if you want to cook.
Great place to do nothing and relax if you just want to unwind.
