Positive: Villa Coco was simply amazing. The casita was positioned towards the end of the property and had a beautiful view. The grounds were beautiful and the pool was quiet. The restaurant and staff went above and beyond, having breakfast prepared in time for the first dive boat and making a special dessert for us. We could walk to town (1/2 mile) or to the surf beach (1mile) for access to terrific little restaurants, a small market, and of course, the ATM.
Negative: I can’t think of anything that wasn’t excellent. Villa Coco has their own fresh water well with safe drinking water, extra generators for when the power went out from the rain, an excellent chef, and terrific staff. Santa Catalina is a remote town that is growing. It’s an authentic village with small restaurants, lunches in an abuela’s kitchen, and hanging out with surfers and divers. The local people are kind and dusting off your Spanish skills will make communication easier. If that’s not your vibe, you probably won’t like it.

Positive: Nice location with well organized villas. We stayed in deluxe king room (in one villa two separate rooms). Large and comfortable. With outdoor shower (only one) and small terrace overlooking forest with two loungers and hammock.
Negative: One thing that bothered us was the lack of privacy on the terrace, as it’s shared with the neighboring room. I would suggest adding a natural divider—such as a bush, wooden screen, or outdoor curtain—between the terraces so guests don’t face each other directly.
Summary: Nice and relaxing.

Negative: Although dinner was great, we didn't like the breakfast as much.
Summary: Lovely stay in Santa Catalina
