Centrally located property. The beach is three blocks away. The staff are friendly and helpful. They texted us immediately after our arrival for help us locate the property. There’s security at the gate. It was quiet and peaceful. My only issue was not having running water for 30 mins.

We loved our stay at Coco Sunset hill and literally cannot wait to go back. I would suggest arriving during business hours as it was rather challenging to locate in the dark but aside from that everything was excellent.

It's a great place to spend some time there. Consider 6 swimming pools for a small complex, located in the Las Palmas area a Playa Del Coco. Our unit was on the third floor, with a beautiful view.

I cannot rate "cleanliness", because cleaning is my responsibility. Otherwise: - I have no basis for comparison and guess you get what you paid for in the expensive Costa Rica. The suite we stayed in was not very comfortable, mostly due to the lack of space. Everything is small - from the kitchen through the sofa to the bed. I paid for my kid close to the price for adult, but there was no provision for him whatsoever. - The confusion starts with the arrival, since the property is called "Coco Sunset Hills" and this is what the sign at the gate says. Tropical Gardens Avenue is a couple of blocks to the north and even the local drivers are confused and don't know where to go. - The remoteness of the reception to the property also does not contribute to the comfort. - The TV is mounted close to the ceiling and uncomfortable to watch - Communication - they would definitely not go the extra mile, but I would not rate it even as "good" - all my requests for little favours were politely declined, i.e. "I will see" or "Yes, we can do this tomorrow" and then nothing happens. Except one extra roll of toilet paper, which we did not even use. - On the plus side, the pools are excellent. The area is also good with a few restaurants; the beach is within walking distance; Coco "downtown" is also not far away.

They were really kind to reschedule our visit several times due to Covid. Everything was clean and they follow up the health requirements. The condo was really nice, we were in a second floor and we watched the sunset from our bedroom, really amazing and romantic. The staff was great and friendly. It's really close to the center and 2 blocks away from the beach. It had several swimming pools and all very clean. Highly recommended.

Very nice property. Great security as it is a gated community with 24 hour security guard. Great pools. WiFi only works in the pool area. Great air con. Location just a short walk from the main tourist area and beach. Check I process can be confusing as the reception is located a block away from the property, just make sure to read the email carefully and you shouldn’t have any issues.

Nice but out of town.
The apartment and complex were great, and has everything you need for a stay should you want to stay around the complex or have a car to travel around. However for us the property was located too far from the main amenities of the town. Although we’d looked into this before booking there really isn’t much in the immediate surroundings and found ourselves walking back / forth into the town - approx 20 / 30 minutes each way. The walk all along the beach is nice in the day but the main road is needed at night. The complex community is primarily older American ex-pats. The staff were very friendly and helpful when we arrived as there was an issue with our booking through hotels.com not confirming our reservation however they were quick to remedy this.

Never again
Awfully rude attitude of security guards when we asked them show us where the apartment was located, inconvenient parking location too far away from the room, apartment first floor smelled like dead fish, I had to kill two huge roaches as soon as I went in the kitchen, ridiculously small second bathroom, air conditioners in really really poor shape. Overall terrible experience. This place never again.

The place was decent. The pool area was the best feature. Other than that there were no amenities. I did not realize it but this was an apartment that was hosted by the listing company. It was off site from the company office, so finding it at night was tricky. I definitely recommend arriving before it gets dark. Everything from laundry to toilet paper came with extra fees. All in all though it was a fair value for what we paid.

Notice the name of the place. It is not a hotel, although it can be used for that. It does not have Wifi in the rooms nor does it have daily maid service, nor a 24 hour "desk", but instead a management office open weekdays several blocks away. What it does have is several rooms in each unit including a kitchen loaded with appliances, silverware, big fridge, big stove, dining table with chairs, parking, etc. These are housekeeping units in a large, aging building with great views of the ocean and good beds. The management staff is enthusiastic and helpful. If a housekeeping unit is what you are looking for, it provides good value for the price. The ocean is three very short blocks away with little traffic...be sure to ask the fasted way to the beach.
