1. The beach at the hotel is so-so. The water is crystal clear, there are almost no waves, and there are tons of fish. But it is rather small, and there is some debris in the water (leaves, twigs, etc...not trash). They have stand-up paddle boards and snorkel equipment for free. They also have peddle boats for rent. There are also lounge chairs and bar service on the beach. Note that at high tide, there is no beach at all.

2. The Prieta Beach Club is very nice. The pool is as nice as the hotel's, but the beach is much nicer and bigger. Nice shady trees and comfortable lounges. They rent boogie boards for $3 per hour and stand-up paddle boards for $25/hr. The pool & beachside menu is available and is sort of expensive. Smoothies are $9 for kids and $12 with alcohol. Sandwiches, buegers, etc are about $15. We brought snacks from the room! The hotel has free transportation to the beach club from 6-6.

3. You have to try the grilled pineapple desert at Rhio Bongo. Delicious, and enough for 4 or 5. (we ordered 2 for 5 of us and took an entire one back to the room!

4. The Dive Bar (need a car to get thereor use hotel transportation from 6-6) has a happy hour from 5-7 every day. Drinks are 50% off (margaritas are $4, beer is $3), and food specials. Tuesday is Taco night. Tacos (chicken, grilled fish, carne asada) are $2 each. Sundays (I have heard) is steak night. 8 oz steak for $10.

We are leaving in a few hours...it has been a wonderful fewdays, and I would recommend this hotel to anyone!
