i hate coconut

The best substitute would not be skim or whole milk, but heavy cream. It will give you the same rich, silky texture, but without the coconut flavor. Do remember to add it at the very end, to avoid clotting the cream.

(It is quite perplexing how, despite having said that she hates coconut, people still say that not using coconut will change or ruin the dish. She hates coconut, so why insist on chasing after the flavour?)

Go ahead and use cream, if you do not like coconut. If you hate coconut but use it anyway, then there would be no point in cooking. Obviously, those who answered that the dish will be ruined have no regard for your personal taste.
