We loved the place and the concept so much that we extended our stay here. Cocolia is a magical boutique hotel with bungalows in the jungle. It’s very private nature oasis, a great getaway from Mazunte town. The terrain is very well maintained, clean, but at the same time there is much respect for the nature. We got the room no 10 (ocean delux room) and the view, as well as the sound of the ocean, was unbelievable. The room is specious and has beautiful design. Taking shower with the view of the Marmejita beach was unreal. There is a pool to relax and the town is 25 min up and down walk, but is was fine for us get some sport after being lazy all day :) also, you can go directly to playa Marmejita (10 min walk), which is the most beautiful pristine beach in the area in our opinion. The restaurant is serving tasty food and all the staff are very hardworking and attentive, big bravo to Isidro, the manager, who is amazing host. A highlight of our trip! Thank you Cocolia family.

I can honestly say that this was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. Everything about this place is so thoughtfully designed and truly unique. The entire property is absolutely stunning — even more breathtaking than in the pictures. We stayed in a beautiful and private bungalow with the most incredible sea view. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcome. The entire staff was incredibly attentive and offered exceptional service throughout our stay. The chef is outstanding, creating amazing dishes with real skill. One day, after a fishing trip where we caught a tuna, he prepared a special three-course tuna dinner for us — the best tuna dishes I’ve ever had, and I’ve had many! The hotel manager is wonderful — incredibly friendly, always helpful, and arranging everything effortlessly. All in all, a truly unique and unforgettable experience.

Magical stay in the hillside above Mazunte, gorgeous views over the beach and sea. It was really private with individual bungalows, each with a lovely balcony and a shower with a great view. You could star-gaze from bed, and I really loved the decor. The restaurants were amazing, I particularly loved the Mezcaleria for sunset cocktails. We did morning yoga in the Shala and loved the seawater pools. A lovely relaxing venue, for a chill moment. The staff were so attentive and easy to use WhatsApp to pre book taxis and order the coffee ritual (highly recommend) to our room in the morning. Thank you so much to Isidro and team for a wonderful stay.

Where do I start? This is by far one of those very few special places that you never want to leave. Every single detail felt unique, from the warm welcome to the many common areas, so nicely decorated in authentic Oaxacan style. The views are just breathtaking, you are surrounded by nature, yet the ocean is always there as your compass. The bungalow felt so private and cozy, well thought through and beautifully designed, not to mention that amazing outdoor shower! Going to sleep and waking up to the sound of the crashing waves was truly special. On our last morning, we even spotted a whale from our terrace. If you are looking for a grounding experience, this is definitely the place to unwind and slow down. All the staff is amazing, you can feel the passion they have for the place and soul they put into their work, something we have rarely seen before. The General Manager was so kind and regularly checked in on us, plus he helped us with great recommendations and tour arrangements. We equally loved the food, the chef definitely knows what he is doing. Everything was super tasty, from the pizza (the best we´ve had in Mexico and we live here) and traditional tlayuda to the fish and seafood, and the prices of both food and drinks more than decent. Not last, Mermejita beach is at a 10-minute walk and is one of the wildest and most stunning beaches we´ve ever seen. We cannot wait to return, thank you so much for the warm welcome and hospitality.

There was absolutely nothing to dislike, we had an incredible experience.

The property does really deliver on the promise of being immersed in the nature of the Oaxaca coast. We woke up every morning to the sound of the waves crashing on the beaches below, and every day we saw pods of dolphins in the sea in front of us. The staff were accommodating and friendly, and took care of our every need. Food and drink prices a bit higher than what you would pay in town but still reasonable. The pool is also great - it's long enough that if you do sport swimming you can get some proper laps in.

Just be aware that you are really in the nature - if you are sound sensitive, the sound of the crickets at night can be quite loud. My partner needed earplugs to sleep comfortably. Also not really a negative, but just to be aware the road leading to the property is quite rugged, so you will probably not want to go back and forth very often if you are staying here.

The hotel itself is beautiful, remote and tucked away. It felt like an amazing escape into nature. We were unfortunately there when a hurricane arrived and had to cut our stay short but Isidro was so helpful, he was always communicating with us and provided the best service. I will always have the fondest memories of Cocolia and only wish we could have been there longer

Highly recommend a 4x4 to get up the hill. We don’t mind taking a risk but it was very uncomfortable to get up the hill in a normal car. Everything about the hotel was perfect though

Cocolia is an absolutely gorgeous property and being surrounded by nature created the perfect sanctuary of peace. During our 7 day stay, the staff and management was incredibly attentive, warmly welcomed us for our morning coffee and the chef prepared outstanding daily specials. We just LOVED everything about out visit. Sid (who manages the property) went over and beyond to ensure that we had an amazing stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Incredible welcome from the manager, Every member of staff was amazing, in particular Jahir and Isidro! The food was out of this world, try the crispy tacos! Incredible views! We intended to stay 1 night and within the first hour extended our stay. 1000% recommend, this place is heads and shoulders above the competition!

We had a visitor one evening (scorpion in the bathroom). This was expertly handled by Jahir so no issues and a bit of wildlife was to be expected.

Great relaxing vacation, barely left the hotel, highly recommend. The room and hotel grounds were beautiful and comfy, in touch with nature, but the best part was 10/10 service! The manager Isidro and all the staff really made sure we enjoyed our stay, they were more than accommodating, felt like a customized experience. Food also good, pool areas relaxing

Nothing - beach access about 10 min walk, town can be accessed

A wonderful private and quiet hotel. A short walk to the beach, although not a swimmers beach. Staff were very friendly and Isidro the manager was amazing. Always there to help and organise any trips. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Excellent service.
