4 Frustrating

Playa Arrocito is amazing from morning till sundown but the condos next to Cosmos is another story. The grey water treatment building is a nusance to the peoples living in the condos around it. By removing it soon and moving it somewhere in forest would be a good solution.

This beach is perfect for families with children as it is very calm. There is a designated area for swimming that spans approximately half the length of the beach. The sand is soft and the entrance to the sea is gradual.

The beach has beautiful sand. However, our experience at the restaurant was marred by a waiter who was impolite, made racist remarks, and was very unpleasant. To top it off, we were charged for the table even though we only ordered a few drinks.

The beach at Huatulco is the best one around, and I highly recommend staying at Puntagaviota. It's conveniently located near the beach, and the rates are very reasonable whether you're staying for the weekend, holiday or an extended period of time. Plus, the sand is a beautiful golden color.

The bay is quite small, but the water is crystal clear and clean with small waves. There is only one restaurant available, and unfortunately, the restroom situation is not ideal. However, we spent a good three hours there and enjoyed some delicious, big, fresh shrimps in mojo de ajo.
