Alex Cadavid from Atlantic City, NJ, USA; March 2010: 'For the price you can't beat it. Great location! Take your own sheets and towels for an extended stay. Would be really nice if the hotel provided at least a radio. Overall, if your just looking for a place to sleep and shower this is the perfect place at the right price! '
Mark Lybarger from Columbus, US; February 2010: 'I stayed 5 nights at the hotel kokomo. The room was all it was presented as. I got the cheep 44/night room with a bathroom around the corner. There was ac in the room and it was close to everything around. The staff was really great. The room was clean and had a bed for me to sleep in which was all i really wanted on the paradise island of Culebra. I could have used a few other things, and there was space in the room for a coffee maker, microwave, fridge, small/simple cooking maybe.
there might have been reviews about noises, etc? i had not troubles sleeping, it was the roosters every morning at 4:30 that would wake me up. they're unavoidable as they live on the island like squirrels; they're everywhere.
I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone except the princess and the pea. it's not a luxry resort, it's a cheap place to stay in paradise.
If you go, and want to take a day trip to Culebrita, I'd highly recommend contacting Nelson who works at the Ferry about a trip. He and Norman were great guides for a water taxi. We paid about 40/person, which included round trip. Dropped off in the morning and picked up at an established time.

Michael Hodgins from Westbrook, CT, USA; February 2010: 'This was the 3rd year that I stayed at Kokomo. The hotel suits me perfectly, especially room #4. This is the best deal that I know of on Culebra and I will be back again as soon as possible.

Dennis Flynn from Indianapolis; Indiana, USA; February 2010: ' Location was wonderful for the two of us. The pier for the water taxi was right out front, all land running shuttles begin and end here also. VERY QUIET and restful, and a fabulous pizza parlor plus a row of resturaunts about a 1/2 block away.Roseario Beach is better/ more than what a person would imagine. Well worth the hike.
Only comment for improvement is for Hotel Kokomo to add Televisions to the room.
Excellent shop near the bridge for the canal (name unknown yet the gentlemans name who owned the place was named Jorge') a local aspiring artist. Well worth a visit. '
Herman T from Los Angeles, CA, USA; February 2010: 'I would first of all like to thank Hotel Kokomo for your incredible hospitality and comfort during our stay last December. While we had many choices to stay at I really enjoyed the comfort of a friendly staff, easy transportation access, and all that Isla Culebra has to offer. My wife and I will never forget the unbelievable time we shared like when we drank fresh Coco juice together on Zoni Beach or after walking for over 30 minutes only to end up on a small secluded amazing beach north of Carlos Rosario Beach, we fell in love again there! We enjoyed ourselves so much we would like to return and next summer with some friends to "Experience Culebra" all over again!'
Ben Yee from New York, USA; January 2010: 'Kokomo is perfectly convenient, welcoming, clean, and affordable.'
alan zychek from los angeles, us; January 2010: 'So you want to go to paradise but aren't super-wealthy? Don't want to sleep in the rain with the mosquitos? Here's the answer.. Kokomo Room #4. A pleasant walk down the hall leads to your bathroom which is pristine! Tons of hot water pressure sure feels good after a day at the beach and then you're in the center of what little action(night life?) this amazing island has. Oh, and it's about 40 bucks a night. I've stayed in 5 and 7. Nice rooms but come on - new mattress time. Thanks Mara for taking care of me and Hector for the hat that saved my skin and turning me on to Ron de Barrilito. Very hospitable. Be sure to hit up Dick and Kathy for your bike - incredible vaca thanks guys.'
Orlando Francisquelo from Buenos Aires, Argentina; January 2010: 'A very nice experience, the people at the hotel is ready to serve you and show a very professional and customer focused mindset.
If you want to experience a couple of days in a non crowdly island, this is the place to go.
Opportunity to make some improvement: I should add a TV set or radio into the rooms

Lauren Smith from boston, ma; January 2010: 'enjoyed our stay! a few suggestions:
-extra bath towel to use as a bath mat to keep water from leaking all over bathroom floor.
-a floor mat outside of door to wipe sand from our feet so it doesnt track in the room.
-another corner shelf in the opposite corner near the window.
-another sheet or blanket on colder nights..we were freezing sometimes!
all in all, a very good stay. people were very friendly and we enjoyed our time in culebra.'
Juan Delacruz from gainesville, FL, USA; January 2010: 'Reasonably priced lodging with a beautiful view. Hotel has everything, including hot water. Great little bar downstairs! Overall, I plan to stay there again in the future'
Eldon Peters from Chapel Hill, United States; January 2010: 'The rooms are simple, but the staff was incredible. They knew everyone on the island and greeted you like an old friend. The attention to small details and the thoughtfulness of the staff surpasses any hotel staff at any level. Thank you for a wonderful time!'
from Tucson, AZ, USA; January 2010: 'The location is really good and the staff was awesome. The room had screens on its windows (no mosquitoes allowed), they provided two towels and the AC was so cold we had to set it to low (which is a plus when it's so hot outside). However, one must be honest and point out a few things that need improvement. First, the bed was hard as rock and the platform looked home made. There was no soap in the room. For $75/night one would expect at least a 50 cent bar of soap (specially when one needs to put in a $50 deposit on top of the rent). Also, the shower was bent inwards onto the wall such that one had to lean against the wall to get wet. That was quite annoying on top of having to clean off the sea water with water only and no soap. '
Christian from Boston, ; December 2009: 'My girlfriend and I stayed at the Kokomo a few nights. Sure, this is probably not the Ritz (I wouldn’t know) but it’s a decent place to crash and the island of Culebra is such a beautiful place and the people there (locals and most of the tourists) are so friendly that you don’t care. There is a bed. You can have a shower and the staff is friendly. If you want a spa, a tennis court and a wellness center – go somewhere else!'
Boris from NYC, ; December 2009: 'I stayed at room 4 one night, it wasn't the greatest considering it only had a bed and a bathroom but me and my girlfriend just needed a place to crash. If you plan to stay make sure you take the basics like shampoo and soap...they do provide towels. Would styay there again!'
Mindy Han from Singapore, Singapore; June 2009: 'Before we came, we had seen some mixed reviews for Hotel Kokomo. However, it was such a great bargain (in terms of price and location) that we decided to give the place a chance anyway. I'm really glad we did - Hotel Kokomo exceeded all our expectations, it was clean, comfortable and centrally-located, not to mention very reasonably priced. It's not a private villa or anything, of course, but I would definitely stay there again. Being a ship freak, it was a bonus to be able to watch the ferry boats load and unload just minutes from the front door.'
Liz pacilio from Dublin, NH, USA; June 2009: 'As always, we had a wonderful time in Culebra! Just an FYI: we did see a few large roach like critters in our penthouse apartment, which was not the case when we stayed in January. However, we would definitely stay at Hotel Kokomo again, and look forward to it! Thank you.'
Khatera Ahmad from NY, US; May 2009: 'Hi,
I got an email from Kokomo and also from Pay Pal saying that I have been refunded my $50, but I have not yet seen the refund in my statement.
How soon will this refund show up in my statement?
Regards,
Khatera'
SANTA MONTANEZ from CAGUAS, PR; May 2009: 'pase unas vacaciones formidables en culebra. el hospedaje en el apartamento sailfish12 en kokomo fue excelente, espacioso y comodo. puede mejorar cambiando la perilla de la ducha y la tostadora. gracias por todo
