Comments Coco View is a great resort for those concerned about COVID 19. There are a number of reasons for this. Honduras requires a recent negative COVID test before entering the country so all guests have a negative test. The resort is on it's own little island so guests have little or no interaction with the local populace. The resort staff are very conscious about wearing masks and social distancing.
The physical plan of the resort is also advantageous in this age of the virus. The guest rooms are spacious and spread out, all located near the water. The dining hall is large which is conducing to social distancing. Open air dining is also available for those wishing to avoid the dining hall. Finally the dive boats are large enough to ensure adequate distance between guests.
