Undoubtedly the worst RV resort I've visited. Horrible, unfriendly, and unprofessional customer service. The food was incredibly bland and cold. Do not order water! I asked for a cup of water and they told me they do not have cups of water, only bottles for $2 each. You are literally a restaurant. How do you not have cups of water? How are you cooking and washing dishes without clean water? On top of the very expensive (and quite frankly, unreasonable) prices, we were surprised with a 20% gratuity (for a party of 2) that they said was standard for everyone. They also added a separate card charge on top of this. This wasn't stated anywhere until we got the check. This should not be their choice. I believe they require this charge because they know they will not get that based on the service. Wish I would've gone to the gas station instead of paying $95 for a two person dinner. Seriously. Freezer meals would have been better tasting and more enjoyable and I wouldn't have had to feel as though I was bothering the staff with my presence. Also, the steps to get into the pool were extremely slick and unsafe. I will absolutely not be back. read more

Without a doubt, this was one of the most disappointing and chaotic experiences I've ever had at a place that claims to welcome both families and partygoers. From start to finish, it was clear no one was actually running the show. Staff members were blatantly vaping and scrolling social media behind the counters like they were on break at home. Even worse, the employee tasked with monitoring the kids' waterslide was doing the same, completely disengaged, staring at their phone, puffing on a vape. It was beyond unprofessional, it was unsafe. Trash was piled up on most tables, left untouched long after guests had left. Meanwhile, a cluster of employees stood around doing absolutely nothing. I snapped a photo of the scene, and instead of acknowledging the issue, one of them smirked and sent security over to give me a hard time. When I brought it up to the manager, she claimed that phone use and vaping weren't allowed, but had no explanation for why it's clearly tolerated. The food? Cold, flavorless, and tossed together like it was an afterthought. And the "family-friendly" atmosphere? Not even close. There was loud, explicit music playing right next to the kids' area while intoxicated adults were grinding on each other in the pool. It felt more like a spring break free-for-all than a place you'd want to take your family. The only person who acted with any professionalism was the security guard checking IDs at the entrance, and that's saying something. This place is a mess. Dirty, reckless, and completely mismanaged. If you care about safety, service, or basic decency, look elsewhere. read more

Our service was poor. The waitress blamed mistakes on other servers but did not correct the situation. The security guards were completely unhelpful and the management is most interested in chatting. They are not working to give you a great experience...they are only after your money. There are too many good places at the lake to go here. It looks nice but horrible service all around. read more

Our 1st visit in many many years and lots of changes. The crab sandwich was AWESOME!!! Service was really great! Lots of beach boozy drink options. We just ate upstairs and did not use the pool or bar area . read more

I absolutely love the atmosphere of this bar. The swim up bar has probably the best views with the lake. The pool has tables and chairs in the water to sit in and relax. The restaurant has some fantastic food and always has alcohol ready. The only negative id say is they're always busy so wait times for food and tables are sometimes insanely long but worth the wait. Boat docks available if needed as well. read more

We've been here multiple times over the years- setting is beautiful. Have been there when it's busy and empty. Don't understand the "security" though. We came in dockside w our boat- a security kid was standing his post right near the closed pool and bar area. He checked all of our IDs and bc our daughter was under 21, he had to place 2 large permanent marker "Xs" on her hands. As he did this, he stated, "Pool is for adults only, but the pool is closed." What?? Why the big Xs and ID check if we're just going up for dinner... and the place is empty? The food was decent. Drinks were good but expensive especially for the lack of alcohol in them. We didn't want to pay for bottled water either- no free waters there like every other restaurant. Waitress was great although she was the only one helping the outside patrons (inside was empty). We encouraged her that she was doing a good job since we could tell she was running. All in all, we may stop here again since we are down in the area frequently, but there are better options we will choose 1st. (And as we left, we saw the security kid sitting up top at the bar in the restaurant ... so glad my daughter "gets" to have these big black Xs on her hands for 2 days now. Just not necessary.) read more

My son took me to Coconuts for lunch. We ordered a drink called Pain In The A** which included rum runner pina colada with a rum floater on top. This frozen beverage absolutely quenched our thirst! We ordered the Beach Nachos which included corn tortilla chips, queso cheese, pico de gallo, and sour cream with shredded chicken. They have ground beef as an option as well. There was a live DJ jamming out the tunes and a swimming pool party! read more

The RV resort has so much potential with great views of the lake and clean property. A few major details are missing which will keep me from returning or recommending. The water park, restaurant, and RV resort office close when they want(much earlier than posted). The laundry services are nice if you are prepared with quarters. The washer/dryer takes quarters only, but no change machine...so you have to go to the office...but Ope! They're closed 30 minutes early....oh! I can run down to the restaurant for some change..just kidding! They don't have change at all because they round up to the nearest dollar!!! What kind of insanity is this? The RV sites are pretty tight and not many are pull-through. The top level nearest to the office/family pool are easily accessed while the lower levels take a CDL and 30 yrs trucker experience to back your rig up 1/4 mile while reversing down a single lane road that's fairly steep hill...not a well thought out lay out. All their boats were not running so ended up renting from Frankie & Louie's(which was a fantastic experience). read more

Coconuts - Level 2 view from site #2 - Bars Near Me - Gravois Mills, Missouri

Okay what a super fun place to have stumbled upon while out on the lake! My sister was so happy to find this place while we were out on the boat and wanted to stop in. Upon entering it was pretty bumping, the music was going and it was already pretty crowded. It's definitely pricy but it's honestly a pretty cool experience for a drink or two! I personally didn't love how crowded it was and after about 45 minutes in the pool I was a little over it. People were really on top of you but they were at least nice. The drinks were amazing. The pina colada was one of the best I've ever had. Not too strong and not too sweet, honestly perfect and it's pre made in a slurpee machine so kudos to them! If you're looking for a quick drink while out exploring the lake then this spot is great to spend an hour or two but honestly no more than that. read more

We came in from out of town and we were wanting to go to coconuts for an early dinner. It was 8 of us and the first half of the group shower up first. I don't know our servers name but she was the only server on the floor with an empty restaurant. She rushed the first half of the group to order appetizers. When the rest of us showed up she rushed us to put in more food and drinks. In the middle of the meal she asked us if we wanted the check and also forgot to bring boxes. On top of that she had a terrible attitude. She failed to inform us that the water was $2 and she wouldn't take off the card fee for my friend who was going to pay cash. The food was overpriced for the quality of the food. From 8 people who work as servers and bartenders, service was terrible. read more

Always on our regular visits list for the kid pool. visited on Labor Day Monday and extremely disappointed to see the DIRTY condition of the kids pool! The shallow end was filthy! you could scrape bottom to see difference be tween shallow and deep end. Dirt came off in your hand! Disgusting! read more

This place has such potential; beautiful property, amazing pools... however we're on vacation & came on a slow/off day & felt as if we were burdening the staff, they would rather sit on the bar on their phones than actually engage or have a a conversation with their customers. We ordered calamari & it was overcooked and fishy & way overpriced for the serving size we got. When we voiced our concerns the server said that he's never ordered it before so he doesn't know what it even looks like. It wasn't just us being treated like that, it was the whole place, I get it's an off day... but every customer matters. Also a heads up, they include 20% gratuity (or at least they did to us, a couple at the bar) to the check. Would give this a second chance just for the property alone but they definitely need to have some managerial or staffing changes. read more

Coconuts - $17 worth of calamari that was way over cooked & fishy. This is how they say it down in front of us... it doesn't even look appetizing. - Bars Near Me - Gravois Mills, Missouri

Typical tourist trap...overpriced for the quality of food they serve. We had one order that was incorrect twice. They don't serve dinner entrees until 6 but closed at 7...waitress seemed annoyed when we asked about that. The food was decent but nothing special. Location is great, right on the water. Beautiful patio. Also they charge $2 for waters FYI read more

Loved the ambience - can't beat the service, drinks, view, the pools, pool bars, water park and the nicest staff!!!

Let's start off with the few things that was good about this place. For one the pool the scenery absolutely gorgeous. The staff very friendly. The gift shop was really nice. But why give them more money. When you realize that your visit before was so horrible food and eco cocktails. I could not bare to give them another dollar. So now we begin on the real story here. We live here. If you have a beautiful place like this but serve the most expensive drinks and I mean that by mixing that with nothing, and also the smallest menu known to man kind. with horrendous food. items. You could go to the nastiest truckstop and have a better meal. I mean some of this microwaved some of it's not. I told my husband which he inturn said the same thing, I would love to throw this up to get it out of me, but we would not want to go through tasting that garbage twice. With such a beautiful place why not have some food to back it up and your prices. My husband and I can go to the nicest steak restaurant not blink and Eye and spend over $300 to $400 for a couple bottles of wine and a fabulous dinner. but you know why we don't care about spending that kind of money because the food made it all worth it!!!! Made us talk about it later made us love it! Made us want to go back. I can't even get the taste of the yuck out of my mouth it's just I can't even go on and on about it because it will make me literally have to relive the taste again in my mouth. That is all. Before I sign off let me tell you about the zillions upon zillions of ants crawling all over not only in your drink your food your feet your legs the bar top anything and everything SHAME ON YOU !!! read more

Coconuts - Bars Near Me - Gravois Mills, Missouri

This was my first time at Coconuts! We came by boat for a late lunch and it was busy. We got lucky and got one of the last dock spots. The 21+ pool bar had a dj that was playing some good, loud music. But the bad part was that there was no kind of bouncer or anything to limit the area or ID people. The pool was PACKED full of people and since COVID isn't completely out of our lives, we were too spooked to get in there with everyone. Instead, we went and sat inside the restaurant because it was pretty hot outside. Our waitress was friendly and attentive enough. The menu wasn't massive but reasonably priced compared to some other lake restaurants. The frozen drinks were good as well, but not as tasty as Shady Gators and Franky and Louie's! Would definitely come back, hopefully when the pool isn't as crowded. read more

Came here on the playin hooky taxi. Overall had a great time! Food was good and service we awesome. Definitely an expensive place and no free water was the only reason I gave 5 stars. They check bags at the door and make you throw out any water bottles and purchase theirs. DJ was playing great music we partied all day and would go back. I wouldn't bring children here. read more

DJ rocked it! What a great mix!! Will come again when he's there! Got crowd dancing in pool. Was so fun!!

New owner has changed the bar! No frozen strawberry margaritas, no grapefruit juice.

We live right down the road and wanted to take our four young girls somewhere to play and eat. We came for the first time on a busy holiday weekend for lunch and the service was incredible! Our waitress was super kind- even with our girls being crazy and one spilling her drink... She offered my a "holiday" drink, which turned out to be awesome! Our food was amazing. That crabby patty sandwich is one of my new favorites! I just can't get over how great she was, especially with the kids, I wish I could remember her name! Anyway, we took the girls to their bananas water park after we ate, and even with them being slammed, our kids still had a really great time! Awesome service, awesome food, great place to take the family on the lake! read more

Coconuts is hard to review. We are a family of 6 who summers at the lake. If we were 21 year olds looking for a play to party, this would be an absolute 5. We like this place when its not the weekend or evening when people get rowdy and unfortunately inappropriate for families. Not hating on that, I certainly respect their right to be a place to party. When the setting is NOT like that, we actually like coconuts quite well. Food is decent (we love the bowls) although a tad pricey, welcome to lake lake, and its huge an entertaining. Pools are cool, kids like the slide (be careful on the steps). Our kids like eating here we just have to go at off times because of the environment. They charge you for water, so heads up on that. No free water for kids..... 3 stars is my mixed review. I totally understand why people love it and why people hate it. read more

EXCELLENT... May 5th, came in with our car club, (26) of us, all 60+ years young. ;) Server Briann seated us immediately (we chose upper deck) before heading to the Magic Dragon car show in Osage. Great friendly staff, amazing views and food to die for, well worth the money, portions are also large enough to share! We are already planning our next trip. Shout out for Briann for taking a group picture. read more

My friends and I went here yesterday and our experience was fine overall. I guess. Our waitress was prompt and polite, but food was overpriced and honestly not that great. There was an ant in my friend's drink, so I asked for another one for her, and they gave her the same drink without any alcohol in it, so I had to ask AGAIN for alcohol. As a former waitress myself, this was completely irresponsible and unprofessional of her. The pool bar played great music to shake your a** to, but there were several middle-aged people hogging the volleyball net acting like h**** high schoolers. The Caribbean chicken sandwich did not live up to the hype, and the calamari was disappointing -- in my friend's words, "literally chicken tenders, I've never thought that about calamari in my life." Well said, Ellee. I would come back here simply to drink, but the food was not really worth it. read more

Great food, service, pool, .... BAD DOCKS to park your boat at. Rt off the Gravois Channel with no breakwater, assholes in cruisers plow-in and cause damage to boats!!!! Beware parking at Restaurants without breakwaters or not in "No-Wake" areas. Cruisers damage docks and boats!! read more

As adults over 21 roasting in the 100 degree July heat, we spent many hours today in the adult pool. The blended drinks are good and served with a floater of rum--but just know that is all the alcohol the drink contains. $10 a drink is a lot to spend on flavored ice with a thimble of booze. That being said, we all had fun and the bartenders were polite and attentive. Late afternoon, we decided to grab some food and were nervous about being still wet from the pool, but we should not have been! The restaurant is built for informal eating. Overall the food was good (note: the menu posted online differs from the one on site)--the onion rings and spicy/creamy dip are not to be missed! The Caribbean chicken sandwich was also good (I would order it again) and the fries were tasty, too. Our friends raved about their quesadillas. At $19, the nachos seemed overpriced for what they were and we had to ask for salsa which we didn't get until they were half gone (so ask for salsa when you order). I agree with previous reviews in that we felt a bit nickel and dimed. Want a side of ranch? That'll be $1. Water? $1.50. In spite of these minor inconveniences, the pool, the DJ, the nice people we met made for a great day on the Lake! read more

Wow, what a mess. We ate in the restaurant and half the items were not available because the waiter said the plates they needed to serve on were at the pool. Here is a thought, get off your lazy as@ and go get them. The pool area is a sewer. Fire the bar manager immediately. I am sure he or she is barely over 21 so they will find another job. There were tons and tons of garbage around the pool and we found the mysterious missing plates and food with ranch cups smashed and leaking all over the pool deck. Here is a tip because I don't believe in complaining without a suggestive fix for the problem. Have your security people at the gate control the people count. There were waaaay to many people in that pool. Have your other security people glove up and pick up around the pool once an hour or hire someone to do it. Don't give that crap that you can't find anyone to do the job. Just like your drink prices, pay someone a ridiculous wage to take care of those pouring money into your pockets with watered down drinks. Don't get me wrong it has not always been like this. Something has changed so I think it can be fixed. read more

This was about as family friendly as a strip club. The adult pool area was inundated with 1,000 bodies, drunk bodies. Trash floating all over the pool. . l scoured my surroundings, searching for employees to pick up the thousands (literally) of beer cans, food plates, plastic cups and didn't see anyone obliging. However, I did see customers trying to clear trash away from their surroundings, but they had to take the trash to the outdoor bar because there were no trash receptacles placed around the pool. Granted, we went there on a Saturday afternoon just before college starts back up. Girls dancing on a long concrete bar in the middle of the pool, pulling off their bikinis and twerking. We decided against eating here after I looked through the other Yelp reviews. read more

The water is murky and gross from alcohol and people spilling things in the pool. Drunk people are allowed to run rampant, diving and back flipping into the pool with no lifeguard on duty. It's not sanitary or safe. If this wasn't enough, they closed my friend's tab out and tipped themselves 20% because she hadn't bought a drink in 4 hours. Being in a Bach party, we were given free drinks by many generous people also enjoying the pool. It was only 5:30 pm (far from bar close) when we left and they closed her tab at 4. They have no warning signs to let people know about this policy and it was extremely upsetting to her. They showed no sympathy and just told people around that she was "fucked up" instead of listening to her. ALSO, they don't provide any free water. When I asked for a glass of water, they said all they could do was give me ice for free and I would have to pay for a plastic bottle of water. Absolute bullshit. read more

Our family has a long tradition of coming to the Ozarks for over 40 years. Recently we took a break and it's been 5 years since we were back. I was looking forward to Coconuts because back then it was one of the only places on the lake that actually catered to the entire family. Now with teenagers in tow, they were looking forward to playing basketball, volleyball and hitting up the beach. But to my surprise all of that was torn down to build an over priced water park for little kids. Not much to do here any more other than grab a bite to eat which is also over priced. They just seem to want to nickel and dime anyone who shows up, even to the point of having to pay for water! I won't be back. It would be nice to see some fun for the whole family back on the lake again. I guess we will stick to Franky and Louie's as well as Captain Ron's. read more

Ok... so it definitely depends on the type of experience you are looking for. Would I bring my family here for a relaxing day by the pool?... Probably not. Was it perfect for a bachelorette party with a lot of shots, entertainment, and people peeing in the pool.... absolutely! Great party atmosphere! Lots of areas for people to hang out... swim up bars, tables in the water, swings in the water, etc. They had giant ski boards for shots.. we may have had more than one. I did go to the restroom to pee- only to find I was the ONLY person in the restroom to pee. Odd- since most crowded bars have a line at the ladies restroom. I guess they save $ on toilet paper!! ;) We ordered food to go & ate it back on our boat. The nachos were pretty darn good! My friends also enjoyed sandwiches, wings, and other typical bar fare. I would love to go back again sometime! read more

Coconuts is a class act. This place is beautiful, with huge swimming pools, and spacious bar areas complete with swings! The DJ keeps everyone having fun, and a family friendly selection of upbeat dance music keeps the good vibes going all day! If you're in the Niangua, this is worth the drive to Gravois. Free water would be a nice touch, when that is the standard elsewhere on the lake. The food menu was also extremely pricy! read more

We have never been to Lake of the Ozarks and what an amazing surprise on the beauty and most of all the best place on the Lake is Coconuts. Great location, food and most importantly the service!! 10 stars for Bethany and Antone. Antone went over and above to make our visit awesome. read more

Visited this place because my granddaughter wanted to go down the 3 waterslides. Paid $15 for her to be able to do that. Ordered two frozen drink concoctions that were watered down and spilled all over the countertop by the bartender. Purchased 2 meals where they place a surcharge on your ticket if you use a debit or credit card and if you pay with cash you don't get your change back - the business pockets it instead. They have the policy that they are too busy to deal with change-aka money. I call that stealing. Won't ever be back. read more

Coconuts is an awesome place to find if you're coming off the lake! The have a great little restaurant located on the "resort" and the food is great! The service is fantastic, and the environment and atmosphere is fun! The have a neat little gift shop, several pool side bars, and other great areas! Oh! You can also take airplane tours that take off and land right here on the lake. Haven't done it yet, but definitely will in the future! I highly recommend visiting Coconuts if you're on The Lake Of The Ozarks! read more

Just tried appetizers / they were ok. Typical frozen bar food. Service was friendly. Great view.

Worst experience ever.. We rented a tritoon and it broke down sat for 3 hours waiting for a jump start right at their place of business got the boat started, left not even 1 minute down the lake the boat broke down again had to be towed in. they finally got us another boat around 7pm told us they would work with us on the price bc we was broke down a total of 5 hours whole day was ruined went to return the boat the following day (we rented for 2 days) and they didn't work with us at all they charged us full price for the day their boat was broke down! I will never rent from them again. Poor customer service. I only gave 1 star bc it wouldn't let me post with out giving them something!!!! read more
