Honest take
What's great
- Solve the full day: round-trip transport, typical lunch and beach time in one plan
- A photo stop at La Mano Gigante and a beach day without the boat crossing to the Rosario Islands
- Good general assessment of the club in reviews: comfortable beach, food and staff care
What to know
- It's a club beach, not the crystal clear waters of the Rosario Islands; on weekends there are more people
- Chairs, sunloungers and drinks cost extra, and there are beach vendors; agree on prices before ordering
- La Mano Gigante is a sculpture for photos inside the club, rather than a large scenic lookout
Before you arrive

- Always agree on the price before accepting chairs, sunloungers, massages or photos at the beach.
- Bring sunscreen, a hat and a towel; shade may be limited.
- Confirm your pickup time and location the day before.
