Coco Bodu Hithi
Things to know
before you go
Coco Bodu Hithi is not a default all-inclusive-only resort; it offers all-inclusive as one of several meal plans.
Every main villa category is private-pool oriented, making room selection more about beach versus overwater setting than basic amenity access.
Confirm current all-inclusive restaurant rotation and transfer costs before booking.
Things guests wish they had known
Coco Bodu Hithi offers several meal plans, so all-inclusive must be selected deliberately.
The all-inclusive plan is not unlimited access to every dining event:in-villa dining, Beach BBQ, wine dinners and private events are excluded.
The resort is stronger for villas, privacy, romance and reef access than for waterpark-style amenities.
