About

CocoRico is located in the hidden gem of Port Barton within the San Vicente Region of Palawan.
If you're looking for a unique hostel environment with a chill vibe and a very social scene, you can stop
looking, as CocoRico is THE place for you! Centrally located as well, being only 50 meters away from the
beach of Port Barton, this is the perfect place for an escape.

Our dorm rooms were designed by backpackers for backpackers. We get it, dorms can sometimes be awkward and
uncomfortable. Therefore, we went all out with our pod style bed, equipped with individual storage shelves, bed lights, USB & international sockets and sliding curtains to give you the utmost privacy and convenience.
Each mattress is extra thick (that's what she said) and 35% bigger than your standard hostel bed, giving you maximum comfort. Hung over?
Don't worry, you'll sleep it off just fine.

Speaking of hang overs, we have you covered when it comes to food as well. With a very well thought out menu,
starting at 7am you can choose one of several different breakfast options to get you energized for your adventurous day
ahead. Love coffee? So do we! I mean, who doesn't? That's why we added a dedicated section of our menu just for
you coffee lovers. From French press to iced coffee, pick your poison. Oh, and we almost forgot to mention that we have
the best smash burgers in town (we have all the vegetarians covered as well!). Not a burger person? All good, we
have a great selection of options to choose from and a wide range of vegetarian and vegan meals as well.

Our priority here at CocoRico is to provide the most inviting and welcoming atmosphere you'll ever experience. Regardless
of what type of traveler you are (backpacker, nomad, or holiday maker), we strive to make your stay unforgettable. Enjoy live acoustic music and DJs from Palawan’s local artists throughout the week, and partake in our daily happy hour with free unlimited local mixers from 7 PM to 7:30 PM...Don't be shy, take as much as you want. There is no catch! Oh, and if you aren't staying with us, you're still invited, because sharing is caring and we love you all!

Enjoyed our stay here! Nice location, good restaurant, fun stuff, and social nightly atmosphere. Boat tour with the hostel was my fav in the Phillipines. Dorms are only 18 beds and therefore subject to loud roommates, loud music, and gets pretty hot at night. Overall fun stay.

Beds were large with two pillows. Big lockers that could fit your entire bag. Aircon was great when the power was on, but the power going off is not fault of the hostel. Food was amazing and there was a social atmosphere before going out. Highly recommend.
