Coco Palm Garden & Casa Oleander Review

Friends and neighbors operate this series of cozy cottages and villas, each fully equipped and individually decorated. The pool, restaurant, and bar are in the Coco Palm section, all awash with cheerful colors. The property caters primarily to Europeans, so the emphasis is on value and efficiency rather than luxurious amenities. This European flavor also means that topless sunbathing is acceptable, even around the pool area. Although most rooms have air-conditioning, there is a $15 daily charge for using it. The villas are a good choice for families and one (Kas Shinishi) even has a private pool. This is probably your best value on the island for ambience, but keep in mind that the beach is a three-minute walk from the nonvilla accommodations.
