Coconut Grove Beach Resort


Coconut Grove Beach Resort is on the edge of a s beach, in a beautiful garden enclosed by a pebbled wall. The well-maintained garden is full of coconut trees, bougainvillea, fregrant frangipani trees, philodendrons clinging to knotted tree trunks, ficus tree and hibiscus. Little stone pathways lead to the different buildings. The cottages are at the back of the beach on a slight elevation obscured by the vegetation. these are constructed from natural materials like wood, bamboo, with roofs and walls made of painted nipa. The interior of each room, though a bit dark, is pleasant with wood flooring and wicker furniture covered with floral printed fabrics. Each one has a terrace with a little bamboo sofa. Although the cottages are semi-detached, the privacy of each one is preserved through bamboo partitions that separate the terraces. The most pleasant cottage in the resort is the only one on the beach very specious, with a drawing room and a second room in the mezzanine. The decor is better planned-mother of pearl lamps, colored wall hangings. It has a nice marble bathroom. Along the beach are the garden bar, the swimming pool and the restaurant. The Garden Bar, with high stools and wicker tables was built with little beach pebbles, its interior is painted in a bright yellow. The nearby swimming pool is pretty, surrounded by multi-colored bougainvilleas. It is pleasant to stop by here and have a drink as there are lounge chairs and tables scattered around. Above the swimming pools is a a stone and two cotes. The sea, however, does not have any exceptional coral just a few little fish but there are stare fish of incredible form and colors. On the right side of the beach begins the rocky coast with small coves to explore.
