Here is a map with the Coco hotel room numbers - http://keithpaul.net/2011/01/cocolapalm-map/
I believe they would make your friends check in and the patio areas vary on privacy, but overall a nice place and we had no problem chatting with and getting things from the vendors on the beach while we were there. If you go through negrilonestop.com you get a free breakfast. Close to Sunbeach (we went over there for a day) and in the middle of everything.
I would vote for seasplash too -- that area of the beach is lovely. And never an issue when I have friends and their kids all around the property and in my room. I realize you've already said too far up the beach, but just chiming in with my two cents ...
Thank You. I am keeping a list of all the properties mentioned here -- Guess I will have to try them all.Originally Posted by Mrs Wilson
For this trip, I would rather not have to navigate around the bar/restaurant that takes up so much beach (if the water level happens to be high).
I also hope I never end up staying at a hotel that the locals refer to as an "Open Air Prison" -- as that is what our former hotel has so unfortunately turned into.
Its not always what you say, but How you say it that matters most.....
Never Judge a Person until you have walked a mile in his Moccasins.
Moccasins, not shoes, then you will feel every sharp stone they have had to walk upon.
I LOVE Rondel as well.. have stayed there several times

All of the villas at Rondel have private jacuzzis.
Why would you hold back the name of the hotel with bad service? Thats what this site is all about....We help each other with our real experiences good and bad. I've done CoCo twice and decided when I do beach/cliffs I will always use CoCo for the beach......It just has all you need. Don't be afraid to go have a beer in the lifeguard chair,I mean there is no lifeguard anyway.
The beach at Rondel was pretty small when I walked by there in January. You can't beat the beach at Coco. IMHO the beach between Coco, Idle Awhile and Charela is the best.
CoCo Wins for next trip -- sadly may not be this summer afterall though.... Thank You all for the advice!

Yes I too am looking for this mystical place where I can buy subs from the local vendors right from my beach chair(all respectable people I have known for years) without security harassing them or maybe invite one of the local working girls to sit in my chair for a bit maybe even go back to my room for a drink or even to the bar for a cocktail. I mean after all some of them are single moms just trying to raise a child. How rude security can be seeing how these people are sometimes treated on the beach. And I too interact with respectful people.
