COMO Cocoa Island, The Maldives

Second time back to Como Cocoa Island and our stay was wonderful again! The management and staff are top notch and made us feel welcome and comfortable. Our loft villa was perfectly laid out. We especially liked having another bathroom on the second level with its large porthole window…perfect for late night weather checks and star gazing. The snorkeling was just as beautiful as last visit. The guides and boat staff on the snorkel safari excursion were knowledgeable and made us feel safe and relaxed. The food selection was great with a wide variety of healthy and delicious choices. Even our finicky eater was happy…the restaurant staff noted his preferences and accommodated happily. Several appointments at the Shambhala Spa were truly wonderful. The massage therapists and staff are professional and provided a much needed “adjustment” in a serene and relaxing setting. The beach areas are well maintained and beautiful. Walking out on the amazing Cocoa sand bar in the evening or at sunrise is an experience not to be missed or forgotten. Just a short boat ride from Male, Como Cocoa Island is a gem! Hopefully a third visit to Cocoa is in our future!

Amazing stay, we were in paradise. The room, the restaurant, the spa, the service were of top quality. Excellent food, very diverse and several evening diners (chrisrmas eve for exemple) had a special theme àd decorations. Amazing views (dreamy sunsets) from everywhere especially the villa deck. We saw the entire casting of Nemo movie while snorkeling few meters from the villa. The staff was very nice and always helpful. Kim, the spa praticioner has magical healing powers. Highly recommended

We chose Como Cocoa for our 6th visit to Maldives, quite skeptical at first wondering if we’re going to get bored staying at such a small island - but we’re wrong.. days went by so quickly since there were various activities we could do. I’d say the snorkeling at Cocoa was magnificent, our favorite was the Como Reef, also Cocoa has the softest, powdery sand I’ve ever stepped on in Maldives. It’s indeed such a magical place. We love love our 1-bedroom villa, it has a minimalist design but offers a homey feeling plus with the amazing views both in the front and back of the villa. Also our stay wouldn’t be this amazing without the roles of the warm & friendly staff at Como Cocoa, especially Mr. Wisam for solving the problem we had whilst staying there, as well as his ability to greet guests by their names and talk to them daily. And of course big thanks to our butler, Nattey, who’s able to remember and meet our requests and who always had smiles on his face; not to forget Chef Dika with his exceptional culinary skills.

Exceptional location, the food provided by Chef Dika was amazing for the food provided. The presentation was absolutely first class. Chef Dika did an exceptional job with the local produce available. I would highly recommend cuisine prepared by Chef Dika

Como Cocoa island is a dream. The Huge Villa we stayed in was gorgeous, the views and crystal clear water was breathtaking. There were too many highlights for me - 1. The 3 house reefs with expansive marine life, we saw many reef sharks, turtles, rays, lobster, blow fish, puffer fish. I love the experience of accessing/swimming right up to the reef from your villa. 2. The impeccable service from the whole Como team with the star being Binoy who knew what our family wanted before we even needed to ask. 3. The Spa - Some of the best massages I have ever had 4. The food - All you need is 1 restaurant, with an extensive menu of fresh produce and tantalising flavours. We couldn't get enough of the food! We miss Cocoa island already and will definitely return.
