It is truly one of our favorite spots. It has numerous bays and a reasonably large amount of accommodation. To us it is a much more interesting all-inclusive location than the Mayan River Riviera. There are a number of rock encircled bays, each with a unique relatively secluded sandy beach. For very little cost one is able to take a taxi and go from one bay to another to enjoy the warm water and beaches.
Accommodations are very reasonable. We are booked at the Skippers Club. It is a hotel right on the waterfront by the yacht club and had a pool and very nice rooms. With our bikes we could get to many locations. The price was a mere $25 per night.
Because it was fully booked we had to time our stay for 5 days from now. To fill this time we went to another of our favoured beach resort spots about a half hour north of Huatulco called San Augustin.
13 km gravel road into San Augustin is definitely a little on the rough side. However when we did arrive, it had not changed much from the last time we were here about nine years ago. In fact we actually got to stay at the back of the same restaurant that we did years ago. It is truly wonderful spot. We are on the beach side of the road, camped behind the restaurant with a palapa roof and beach where the waves sometimes come right into the sandy floor of the restaurant.
We booked in for five days to enjoy ourselves prior to going back to Huatulco and spending 5 days at the Captain's Club hotel.
One of the interesting things about staying at the restaurant we were at nine years ago is the same family still owns it. Two children that were nine and 10 then, are now 18 and 19--Of course they do not remember us but we certainly do remember them.
Finally, being right on the ocean. made it feel a little cooler because of the slight ocean breezes--a great spot to kill to time before our Huatulco stay.
