Como Cocoa Island is truly stunning with its beautiful lagoon and incredible villas. However, while the staff were fantastic and the food was excellent, the overall atmosphere felt a bit lacking due to limited dining options and noise from construction. For a tranquil getaway, it may not be the best choice right now, and we left feeling disappointed despite its potential.
