Excellent location to enter the beach for free. Notice that they have both the Raw Love cafe and the restaurants and they serve very different food. I recommend Raw Love for a healthy and reasonably priced lunch. If you want a private bed on the beach, the minimum spend is around 500 pesos per person.
