I am going to PDC in April and I am having a hard time picking a hotel (even after spending hours researching!). I have narrowed it down to the three noted in the subject line, but beyond that I need help. We are not big partyers so my hesitation with Lunata is being on the main drag at night. It sounds like that may not be an issue, but it may. Also, is it a pain to get a spot at a beach club around there? Riviera del Sol seems like it is a bit further north and out of the immediate action and your 'beach spot' is incl in the rate, but is it too far away? La Tortuga seems a little further up the street, but how far is it from the beach club? Questions, questions...any further insights from someone who has been there would be greatly appreciated.

There are beach clubs everywhere and the RDS is a bit of a walk but it depends on how far is too far for you. We just got back from the Riviera Caribe Maya located at 10th ave and calle 30. We enjoyed walking. Which beach club are you refering to?
