I had a mixed experience during my stay at the hotel. The location was beautiful, nestled between the beach and well-maintained gardens. The room was spacious and featured high ceilings with a charming four-poster bed, but I found it lacked some modern amenities. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, which made the experience more pleasant, yet there were some awkward moments due to perceived discrimination. The dining situation left room for improvement, and overall, I found the facilities nice but not quite up to the five-star standard they claimed to have.

The hotel's facilities, like the grounds and pools, were quite nice, but the indoor dining and spa areas felt subpar for a five-star establishment.

We had a mixed experience at Coco Ocean. The location is fantastic, with well-maintained grounds, but the rooms desperately need renovation. The service was hit-or-miss, especially at breakfast, and the Wi-Fi was extremely poor. Overall, it has great potential, but there are notable areas that need significant improvement.

We stayed in a royal suite that was spacious but in dire need of renovations. The furnishings were old, and there were several issues like broken window locks and a small hotel safe that wasn't secured. The mosquito net was helpful, but it still allowed some pests in.
Service
6.0
While some staff were friendly and accommodating, the breakfast service was quite slow, and other aspects like car service were disorganized. We experienced long wait times for meals, and the quality of service overall felt disappointing for a supposed five-star establishment.

The hotel is set in a beautiful location with well-kept grounds, making it a haven for relaxation. It’s conveniently located near local shops and the beach, which is a definite plus.
Dining
5.0
The dining experience was underwhelming—especially breakfast, where options were often limited and took a long time to replenish. While some dishes were decent, a lack of variety and freshness was noticeable.
Facilities

The facilities, including the pool area, were quite dingy, despite the staff doing their best to maintain them. There’s potential here for improvement if focused on cleanliness and upkeep.

My experience at this hotel was mostly enjoyable, thanks to its stunning beach location and beautifully maintained grounds. The rooms were spacious and had a luxurious feel, but some aspects needed improvement, particularly regarding service and dining options. The staff was eager to please, but certain issues, like slow service and the dining menu, detracted from the overall experience. Overall, it’s a nice place to relax, but there’s room for growth in several areas.

The Beach Club Villa was spacious, clean, and overlooked the beach, but some furnishings felt a little dated. The bathroom was huge and the bed very comfortable, although the bednet had noticeable holes.
Service

Service was well-meaning and the staff made an effort to ensure our enjoyment, yet it felt chaotic at times, with slow responses during meal times and inconsistent attention.
Location

The hotel boasts a fantastic location right by the beach and is close to local attractions like Bijilo Monkey Park and the Senegambia strip, making it ideal for exploration.
Dining

Dining options were a bit of a letdown; breakfast lacked variety and dinners felt overpriced for the quality offered. A buffet option could enhance the experience.

The hotel’s facilities, including the pools and gardens, were well-maintained. However, the Wi-Fi connection was spotty, which hindered connectivity.

The hotel provided an enjoyable and tranquil atmosphere with its beautiful grounds and inviting ambiance. I found the accommodation options to be spacious, although some aspects like outdated amenities need attention. The services offered, especially the spa treatments, were top-notch and staff members were truly welcoming and attentive. However, some dining experiences fell short, and stronger attention to detail would enhance the overall stay.

I stayed in a Beach Club Villa, which, while spacious and secluded, had bednets with large holes that didn't close tightly, which was disappointing for the price paid. Overall, they felt somewhat dated.

Service was generally commendable, particularly Aida from housekeeping and Yaya, the breakfast supervisor, who made us feel welcome throughout our stay.

However, the service left a lot to be desired, particularly regarding their booking mishaps. The dining options were inconsistent, and unfortunately, the Wi-Fi was spotty at best, which detracted from my overall stay.
