Best Tucked away Gem!
During Covid-19, we stayed here! This place is amazing. It is very spacious on the property. The bar outside by the beach has the friendliest staff and you can also get a massage by the beach. The pool over looked the beautiful sea, and the hotel structure was very beautiful! Thank you Jasmine (reception) for being so kind to us!!! I had to change the date of my booking Bc or ferry scheduling and it was no problem!!! They messaged us and got right back to us! When arriving we were greeted by name and taken to our lovely room. The room is spacious and the balcony is LARGE! You wake up and feel like ur looking out at the jungle. The water pressure was great! Hot water! And the AIR con was amazing once it got going. I highly recommend this hotel for families or for ppl who want to be away from the loud noise of Haad rin beach! You can rent a motorbike on the property and ride two min to Haad rin beach for nightlife!

My Samsung Galaxy S10 was stolen by the member of staff who rented out motorcycles for the hotel. I reported this too the police who kept me in police box for 2 hours trying ineptly to use a find my phone app and threatened to arrest me for accusing a Thai national. The police and hotel refused too help in any way. Even refusing to give me their names or a piece of headed paper stating that I had lost or had my phone stolen for insurance purposes. The hotel refused to allow me to call the British consulate, stating that I never had a phone in the first place. But after cancelling my bank cards and phone conection the using a friend's phone. The police arrived with my phone stating that they had found it in a bush 300 years from the place where I had left it with the motorcycle renters girlfriend whilst being showed a bike. The police even took 600 Baht (£17) out of my phone expecting me to give it too them a reward which I flatley refused. The hotel manager and staff where unbelievable in their manners and complete refusal to help. PLEASE be careful with your possessions at this hotel. It's a lovely location and with full moon parties making Haad Rid a busy little town. Cancelling my phone and bank cards was a problem. But we refused to let this spoil our break. We were based in Koh Samui and spent 4 day's at Cocohut, leaving after the above incident. I have visited Thailand many times and found the people to be very polite and honest. BUT the Cocohut? NO NO NO!

Great hotel with amazing beach
Fantastic hotel with a fantastic beach! Very good service, we got a room upgrade to a bigger bungalow when we checked in! The beach and the pool were great, too bad they were building next to the restaurant and it was a bit noisy when we had lunch there. Breakfast is okay, could have more fruit. I tried the foot massage in the spa and was wonderful too. I would totally go back to this hotel!

Disappointed
I was never made aware that there was shuttle service available for a fee between the pier and the hotel. No hand soap provided. Was unable to flush toilet paper in select rooms and there was no sanitary way of disposal. They did help to arrange an early morning transport so I wouldn't miss my flight but they did not give me a wake up call as requested.

great hotel except for the beach
we stayed at Cocohut during a down time (no full moon party) in low season, so the place was pretty relaxed. the staff and service were really excellent! we originally booked the hillside bungalow, but changed to the senior bungalow, which was much nicer and at ground level. the steps to the hillside bungalow were too dangerous (clumsy is my middle name) and the bungalow itself was meh. thank you to Elias for allowing us to change bungalows! also thank you to Yossi and the front desk staff for arranging two tours and generally answering any questions we had. the food in the restaurant was good, and if you order right, not really that expensive. you can always find cheaper options, but what length you go to save $2 is up to you. the pool was nice as well. only complaint we had was that the beach is unswimmable. it's walkable, although short. you can wade up to your calves if you want to play mine sweep with the coral and rocks. we took excursions to see other beaches, and all of them were nicer than Leela. location was good if you are looking to hit the full moon party. short walk to Haad Rin beach, although the hills are no joke. Haad Rin is also not impressive if you are looking for a beautiful beach. overall, Cocohut is a great place and we would stay there again.

Family friendly hotel
Great resort. We took a huge room with a shared private pool. Very nice and clean. The ataff is the highlight here. So family orientated so caring. Always looked after our kids and took care of them. Excellent family hotel and nice atmosphere. A special thanks to Tiki who was amazing. From the second we got there she was looking after our 4 month yo baby and 2 yo son. So nice and caring. We loved her so much we even asked her if she could babysit during the evenings after she finishes work and she happily agreed so that was great and allowed us to go out and have some quiet romantic time without the kids. We felt totally comfortable having Tili take care of the kids and they liked her very much. Cocohut is definitely one of the most family friendly hotels that we have been to. The only con I can think of is that the water in the beach is dirty and has alot of rocks so not very fun to swim in.

Nice hotel close to Full Moon parties
Spent 5 nights in a cliff bungalow. First bungalow was disappointing, asked for a change and received another one with better view. Staff hardly understands English. Keep in mind the town is 6-7 min walk over a little hill, where you can find 7-eleven, atms, massage, restaurants. We ate 2 times in town, regretted both. Cocohut runs a cheap and very good restaurant, main meals come around THB150 all-in, most of the time we ate here. Beach is nice, but could be rocky in the afternoon due to sea currents. Mosquitos come 1-2 min after sunset, take the repellent to the beach with you!!! Hotel has many Israeli and Chinese guests who usually forget they are not alone on the beach: shout loudly and even take your beds if necessary. Breakfast is average, there is always shakshouka and one thai meal on a revolving basis. Fresh fruit is always reloaded.

Great stay!
Great location on Leela Beach; within walking distance to Sunset Beach and secluded enough to get away from the crowds. Facilities were great especially the fitness center and pool. Wonderful breakfast buffet that has a wide variety of choices. This is a great hotel for couples or families. We would definitely recommend staying at Cocohut Village when visiting Koh Phangan!

A Gem!
We stayed 4 nights in Koh Phangnan and our resort was lovely! A short taxi drive from the pier the hotel is at the end of the island so very quiet. We stayed in the bungalows - it was just the right size and the resort is so close to the beach and restaurants.

Hotel is not clean. Curtains and floor were with dark spots. Rust on taps. No hot water even I have informed reception tree times. Air condition was very noisy. Quiet expensive, you can have same quality or even better for less money. Breakfast was excellent. Private beach and pool very nice.

Peaceful place on Phangan
Great place on quiet side of Haad Rin and just a short walk to sunrise beach. The biggest drawback is the beach/ocean is not swimmable; it's shallow and still with sharp rocks. Otherwise it's a great place! The rooms on the hill are large and detached so there was no noise. The staff were super nice and helpful, breakfast was good and the place was clean and grounds were kept.

A wonderful stay
At first we stayed at a room called cliff bungalow. The view was amazing and the room was nice but the mattress too soft and the shiwer too small. Than we upgraded to a suite and its superb! Anyway, the environment, the pool and the beach are beautiful and the staff are so nice and helpful that it makes the stay just perfect.

Better than expected
Although we were only here for one night our stay was excellent. The room was beautiful, staff was very helpful, and the shuttle from Had Rin Pier was included making our arrival and departure a breeze. The beach was not huge, but it was private and easily accessible. The pool was warm and very nice too. There is a bar always open, and the food at the restaurant was delicious and very reasonably priced. I wish we would have stayed longer here!!!
