“Nice small beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 17, 2013

Private beach, waves not to big to be dangerous. Found some area to be very rocky and needed shoes while in the water.

“Terrible beach.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 15, 2013

Horrible stench. Ugly sand. And you are HOUNDED by vendors trying to sell you goods left & right. There is seaweed and crap all over the beach. Just go to Cabarate.

“smells like poop!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed March 6, 2013

sewage pumped into the ocean & dirty diapers and garbage everywhere. Vendors harass you and stray dogs that you must be aware of as we had one try to bite us.

“Clean, Warm, but a little small.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 5, 2013

There is not a lot of room in the sand for beach chairs but the water was a good temperature and it was a clean beach.
