"We had an amazing time at Reef Coco Beach! Our room was very clean and the air-conditioning was incredible!! The staff was incredibly helpful and courteous. There wasn’t one person we passed that didn’t have a smile in their face! Guillermo at the lobby bar was fantastic! That young man deserves a raise!! Marco at the sports bar was VERY accommodating and an excellent bartender! Boris was so fun and made every day exciting! Alan was a wonderful server and had an excellent personality. They all had a huge part in making our trip so good, they made us feel like family. The beach was beautiful and clean. The food was good.
