Underwhelming
The “beach club” was underwhelming. It was a small pool with zero amenities, no towels, etc.
Operator response
Hello:
Thank you for your comments. The beach club is a normal beach club, maybe you expected more luxury but this is a club for surfers and it focus mainly in the Surfing experience.
