Beware of Coco Paradiso Gym: A Warning About Unethical Practices

An Exposé on Coco Paradiso Gym and Coco Retreat: A Warning from Ultimate Fitness

This article is not a reflection on Ultimate Fitness as a company. It is an exposé written by Ultimate Fitness to highlight the unethical practices of Coco Paradiso Gym, Coco Retreat, and the individuals behind them—Filip Massara and Kat (Krittiya Mahasung) the owner of the business.

We feel compelled to share our experience to warn others about the serious risks of engaging with these parties.

This article will remain online until Coco Paradiso arranges the return of the stolen gym equipment and compensates for the damages caused.

How Coco Paradiso and Filip Massara Conned Us

Our dealings with Coco Paradiso began with optimism, entering a three-year agreement to rent and operate their gym. Ultimate Fitness invested heavily, spending over €20,000 on construction costs and another €20,000 on gym equipment to create a high-quality facility that benefited both parties.

However, from the very beginning, Filip Massara made his intentions clear—he wanted to take the gym for himself. His actions, along with the complicity of Kat, the owner of Coco Paradiso, turned what should have been a thriving partnership into an outright con.

Theft of Equipment and Construction Costs

In a blatant violation of our contract, Coco Paradiso terminated the agreement without warning, locking us out of the gym and preventing us from removing the equipment we purchased. This €20,000 worth of equipment, which we rightfully own, was stolen by Coco Paradiso.

Additionally, they refused to compensate us for the €20,000 we spent constructing the gym, a significant investment made in good faith. These actions amount to outright theft and have left us with no recourse other than to expose their behavior publicly.

A Pattern of Deceit: Filip’s Role

From the outset, Filip Massara demonstrated bad faith. His behavior showed a clear intent to take over the gym we built, exploiting our investment for his own benefit. Filip actively undermined our operations, ignored contractual obligations, and ultimately orchestrated the theft of the gym and its equipment.

Despite numerous attempts to resolve the situation amicably, Filip refused to respond to any communication. His actions reflect a calculated and deliberate effort to con us out of our investment.

Kat’s Complicity: A Leadership Failure

As the owner of Coco Paradiso, Kat bears equal responsibility. Rather than stepping in to mediate or address the clear breaches of contract, she enabled Filip’s unethical actions. Kat’s refusal to engage or resolve the situation demonstrates a lack of accountability and integrity in the resort’s leadership.

Threats to Clients and Damage to Reputation

Coco Paradiso’s unethical behavior didn’t stop with us. They went as far as threatening our clients in writing, creating a hostile and unprofessional environment. These actions not only harmed our reputation but also left our clients feeling uneasy and unsafe—a direct result of Coco Paradiso’s management.

Refusal to Resolve the Situation

Despite repeated efforts to reach out to both Filip and Kat, all communication has been ignored. Their refusal to engage, compensate us for stolen assets, or return the equipment highlights their belief that they can act without consequences.

Let it be clear: this article will remain online until the stolen gym equipment is returned and compensation is arranged.

A Warning to Businesses and Guests

If you are considering doing business with Coco Paradiso or renting their gym, we strongly advise against it. Their actions reflect a troubling pattern of deceit, theft, and unprofessional behavior that poses serious risks to anyone associating with them.

Whether you’re a business owner seeking collaboration or a guest looking for a fitness destination, Coco Paradiso Gym and Coco Retreat cannot be trusted.

A Testament to Their Character

The unethical actions of Filip and Kat—stealing equipment, withholding construction costs, and threatening clients—serve as a testament to their lack of integrity. This is not a one-time mistake but a deliberate pattern of behavior designed to exploit others for their gain.

Final Thoughts: Demand for Accountability

Ultimate Fitness remains committed to sharing this experience until the situation is resolved. Filip Massara and Kat must take responsibility for their actions by returning the stolen equipment and compensating us for the financial losses they caused.

Let this serve as a warning to anyone considering doing business with Coco Paradiso Gym or Coco Retreat: their actions speak volumes about the character of those in charge. Proceed with extreme caution, or better yet, avoid them entirely.

This version makes it clear from the outset that this is an exposé and that the article will remain online until restitution is made. Let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to add or adjust!
