CocoLaPalm Seaside Resort - Negril

The staff is wonderful, the location is PERFECT and the rooms are very comfortable. This is our second stay at Coco La Palm and we will be back. 11 days was not long enough! This time we branched out and here is what we did -Dinner at Kuyaba-$20 grilled lobster dinner with potato, vegetables and bread! -Dinner at 3 Dives-1.5 lobsters, grilled with […] callaloo and rice. THE BEST! You get a lot for what you pay. We also had the grilled kingfish which was delicious. They are cash only so bring enough! -Dinner (twice) at Seaview Chinese! Some of the best Chinese food I've had anywhere, and I have had my share! Cash only as well. -BEST IN THE WEST-both vacations to CCLP, we have gone to Best in the West a minimum of 4 times per trip. It is directly across the street and it is very authentic jerk chicken. You can ask for it with Rice and Beans if you like. $12 for half a chicken which is enough for the boyfriend and I. Cash only -Ivan's on the Cliffs-I had the grilled Mahi Mahi with vegetables and my boyfriend had the Seafood Fettucine. You are also given a bowl of pumpkin soup to start. DELICIOUS! The view is spectacular as well. -Have the hotel bring you to Hi-Lo grocery store. It is $10 roundtrip and you can stock the refrigerator in your room. We got beer, water crackers, cheese and vodka. Well worth it. -There is a trio of stingrays that buzz the beach every day and they are fun to see. They pay no attention to the swimmers Wonderful! email with ?'s! Read more

We returned yesterday from 14 days at Coco La Palm. My husband and I have been traveling to different Islands in the Carribean for more than 17 years and we have finally found our favorite place. We love this resort! The staff is wonderful - friendly, courteous, professional and ALWAYS there to help you. The beach is by far the most beautiful beach […] ever! If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy the sun and the beach - this is the place. The fact that there are so many repeat visitors says it all! There are many place to have lunch/dinner within walking distance as well as a short taxi ride - it is hard to decide where to go. Many of the resturants on the beach that we saw during the day, transformed in the evening - with candlelight, tablecloths and pretty centerpieces. Such a pleasant surprise. We are counting the days until we return! Read more

beautiful beach, safe grounds, wifi not easily accessible except in some parts of hotel, nice pools, lukewarm hot tub, tasty continental breakfast, helpful service, nice housekeeping staff. The room was just okay, but we didn't spend too much time there. It was very clean though.

All of people that work at The Coco la Palm resort are the best. They have become my extended family, home away from home. Everything was great. I did not want to leave. No they didnot pay me to say this, they only spoiled me with great services, food, kindness and most of all being professional. We will return again and again!

Good facility, the AC in my room needed to work better and the walls were very prone to noise from next room!!! However for the price Expedia provided, it was worth it!

Just returned from this resort 10/10 - 10-15 for my wife's birthday. Words and pictures cannot really describe this resort. Upon checking-in the cleanliness and friendliness of the resort exceeded our expectations. The jr. suite room is more than enough space, bathroom was extra large as well. The staff were awesome as well. Carlene and her staff did […] an exceptional job setting up the dinner area for my wife's surprise birthday dinner. No complaints at all. Carlene, Donna and Vernon were all exceptional employee's and they are the reason we would return to this resort. Also the security guards were on point, they made you really feel safe even though the locals were just trying to sell their local goods. Just returned and my wife asked when will be going back to CocoLaPalms, Resort is also in a perfect location. Words and pictures can not really describe how great this resort is compared to the others we saw along the beach. CocoLaPalm is where it's at! Read more

I am extremely picky when it comes to hotels but in this case I can honestly say it was clean..staff was friendly..nice location. Don't know about the food I went to loacal places to eat. I would absolutely go back .

The staff were friendly. The rooms are kept clean & air conditioned. The location on the beach was great with the perfect mixture of shade & sun. I will definitely be back.

wound go back to this place,it's right on the beach, nice staff,it is clean and cheap to rent.you get free breakfast,didn't try dinner or lunch,across the street you can get great jerk chicken.

Genuine Expedia guest review

One of the best locations in Negril, perfect beach, very nice hotel with lush gardens. But the front desk staff (with one exception) are somewhere between hostile and indifferent. Free internet was advertised, but during our 6-day stay the internet was not working, and every day we heard different excuse. The restaurant is great (although a bit pricey […] for the quality and quantity of food), the restaurant staff were very nice. This hotel has the promise to be a fantastic destination, but their staff need some training, and the hotel needs some maintenance. Read more

Came back from our honeywoon in September 2012. Had an awesome experience at CoCo La Palm. The property is very well kept. A good start to the day was having breaksfast at Marleys.They give you a voucher and you can upgrade the breakfast for an extra $6.00. Well worth it. The beach is perfect location. Take an early morning swim and walk on the beach […] and there are lots of authentic places to eat. The hagglers were a bit annoying but if you wanted to talk with them it was cool but a polite "no thank you" was sufficient. Go jet skiing, snorkelling, parasailing, glass bottom boat, sunset cruise, ricks cafe, mayfield falls and just get out and about. There is a supermarket called Hi Lo in downtown Negril and the cab costs $10.00 there and back, whilst you are there go shopping in the duty free shops. The driver will wait for you. In fact the driver will take you anywhere you want to go for a fee,of course. Bring enough $1 and $5 bills . Ate at Best in West Jerk hut, across the street that was really good. Air conditioning was a little noisy so we changed rooms. We stayed in a Deluxe room. Saw a few ants, no big deal. September is rainy season so we did experience some rain but it was very hot in the morining so we did our excursions then. So what if you get wet, no big deal. Ideal for couples or groups. Not child friendly. Pretty much everyone is polite. No complaints, ready to go again. Read more

My hubby and I stayed at Coco La Palm for our recent honeymoon and can't say enough about the place or the people working there! Our only complaint is that we didn't stay long enough! We chose this hotel based on a friends recommendation. They go once/yr and always stay at Coco La Palm - and I know we'll do the same for our future. I had read reviews […] that it's the best beachfront property on 7 Mile Beach, and that's 100% true. We had the opportunity to walk the beach and go exploring on a jetski to get a good idea of the 7 miles. Some of the hotels may say they are on the beach but they may not have actual sand to lay out on - this place has plenty of sand and lounge chairs. The pools are nice and there is a big hot tub. We stayed in a beachfront room on the 2nd floor overlooking the ocean and it was incredible. The tv reception was staticky in our room (if you care about watching tv). Their banana pancakes are awesome, as is the banana bread and their pizza. We only ate dinner at their restaurant one night out of 4 but it was soo good. We didn't choose to go the All-Inclusive route because we wanted to explore Jamaica and not be tied down to a resort. This is a great place to stay if you feel the same. It's walking distance (along the beach) to Margaritaville, where we watched the Pat's game, and Tony's villa where we had the best pineapple rum drinks! 20 min cab ride to Rick's cafe, where we watched the sunset. The drivers are a bit crazy and fast but we got used to it! Read more

everything was great except the food quality. The food was awful. We had to leave the hotel to eat. Other places had much better food at the same cost. They really should overhaul the menu.

As a couple we really enjoyed this hotel-- there were mostly other couples. The sun washed cliffs were quiet and mysterious. The bar and food were good. Sun warmed pool was ultra comfortable. The overall vibe was like a sexy, relaxed get away. Expect to pay for all extra amenities.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Stayed here for 5 days as a vacation with my significant other. The room was nothing fancy, but was clean and had ample space. The bathroom was large, as was the shower, which was a great feature. Unfortunately, we had very poor internet signal in the room and had to go out to the terrace to get a stronger signal. We did not use the pool or restaurant, […] so I can't comment on that. But, overall, we enjoyed the hotel. We were especially impressed by the high quality of the security staff both at the front driveway and on the beach. They were very attentive and made us feel very safe. The location itself is great in that it is right in the middle of the beach, and it's easy to walk in either direction to see the other resorts and restaurants. Great hotel for the value conscious looking to enjoy the beach. Read more

Great Place ...but Not an All-Inclusive. Staff is attentive, and the Woodcarver "Donavan"'s wares on the beach are of great quality for the price.

Cocolapalm exceeded all my expectations. So glad I decided on this resort. It's a great location on a gorgeous/clean beach with plenty of lounge chairs and shade trees. Even more beautiful than in the pictures. Room was comfortable and clean, staff consistently helpful and friendly. Even though I was traveling alone, I felt safe even on the beach at […] night as there is security round the clock. Food was pretty delicious as well. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back at some point! Read more

Would definitely stay at CocoLaPalm again! The property is well maintained and the service was exceptionally friendly. You can't beat the location on the beach, and the jerk chicken across the street is awesome. :)

Genuine Expedia guest review

My husband and I spent a week at this hotel and we had a wonderful stay. The beach is absolutely fabulous! The locals can be very persistant when it comes to selling their goods. Fortunately, they are only allowed to walk along the sea and away from the beach chairs and beachgoers. The closer you move to the sea, the more interactions will occur with […] the locals. This is not a bad thing. In fact, if you want to negotiate a "fairer" price for a product, you can have the locals compete for your business...kinda of nice and more cost effective for you! The markets are close by and the locals are always willing to help you. Remember to tell security if you plan on leaving the premises just as a common sense safety precaution. Tipping is always a good thing. You will make good friends in Jamaica! This was our second trip to Negril and we are currently planning our third. Lastly, for those who would like to bring their children I would recommend a hotel that is all inclusive. The price of your daily meals can really add up quickly. The cost of meals for two people on a seven day vacation will cost you around $500.00 U.S. Read more

The staff at Coco La Palms is wonderful, this was my second time there and they remembered my name and greeted me at the door by name and with big smiles!

Our experience in CocoLaPalm Seaside Resort is very disappointing ... We changed 3 rooms in a half day..The basic Amenities like Air conditioning and Refrigerator doesn't work ..Its very hot outside and the AC doesn't work!! OMG!! we had a very bad time until we change our 3rd room.. Food in the the Restaurant is very very expensive and unfortunately […] we did not find any vegetarian food(we called the resort before booking and they said,they have many vegetarian dishes)..we have only 1 single dish and they charge $20 USD for that.. The restaurant is not clean..u can see dust on coffee cups n plates..the staff doesn't even care until u ask exclusively .. With all the struggle , the front office is unhappy when we said that we will checkout 1 hour after the usual checkout time .. We are totally unhappy n disappointed with our stay in CocoLaPalm Seaside Resort.. I will not recommend this to anyone.... Read more

Enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Rooms are out dateed. Needs some remodeling.

This hotel is excellent for many reasons. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The hotel is on the best area of the beach, and the area of beach is large compared to other resorts. The security is excellent both at the beach and at the front gate. My 2 weeks in Jamaica were truly superb.

I stayed 5 days and 4 nights at Coco La Palm in May. I stayed in a junior suite. The room and bathroom were very spacious. For the price this hotel met my needs. The location was wonderful.

This was our 1st trip to Jamaica. Coco LaPalm was best location on 7 mile beach. Staff were very friendly & helpful. Rooms very clean and grounds were beautifully landscaped.

Way more to do on 7 mile beach. […] Would definitely return to this hotel if we ever return to Jamaica. Read more

This was our second trip to Coca La Palm...just as beautiful as it was 6 years ago. Coca is the perfect location on 7 Mile Beach. Everyone is so friendly, the food delicious, AND the Drinks...awesome. If you love bananas try the Dirty Banana. Yummy! And of course the Rum Punch. Loved the Jerk Chicken!!! The water is beautiful just the right temperture. […] Brought 2 bottles of No-Ad 30. Used both bottles and came back with a great tan. Went with Captain Kirk on the Glass Bottom Boat and went snorkeling, Parasailed with Shut Up And Fly. AWESOME!!!!! Don't know why we were so scared. Highly recommend. Bought a couple of carvings from Donovan at Coca La Palm. Beautiful work. Also did the Sunset Cruise to Ricks and did snorkeling in caves. Lots of fun. Can't wait to back!!! Read more

This was our first trip to Negril and CocoLaPalm and we can't wait to go back. We loved our room (336), a Junior Suite that looks over the pool and all the lush vegetation in the courtyard. It was beautiful! The resort is kept up very nicely and you can tell the staff takes pride in their work. Although the decor could use a little update, everything […] was clean, the air conditioner worked great, and the small fridge in our room was perfect for all of our beverages...water, soda, beer and even our rum cakes! THE BEACH!!! The location is right in the middle of 7-mile beach and each morning we'd walk one way or the other all the way to the end. LOVED the daily exercise of walking in the sand for miles and miles. It was great for people watching and for getting a great tan! If you are looking for an all-inclusive, 5 star resort...there are some down the beach. They look fancy but so darn boring compared to the fun everybody was having at CocoLaPalm for half the price! Michelle and Clive (bartenders) and the beach bar are just a few steps away if you want a fruity drink or a redstripe on the beach! Read more

Had room by parking lot/road, and was very noisy at times. Staff very nice and friendly. Kitchen was slow getting food out, so needed to plan ahead if eating there. Food was just okay, and you get a nice discount on breakfast if you sign up for continental but get regular breakfast fare instead. Beach location was excellent. Used Rocky's Tours for trips, […] and would highly recommend; Rocky will come to hotel to meet with you and discuss tours and transportation. Bring bug spray for the little ants and no see-ums in room. Tip the staff if you want to get extra towels. Excellent Dirty Banana!!
