Great beach club - First, ease of booking and great communication from Viator and taxi company. Gabriel was a fabulous driver and so helpful. The food at Malecon 21 was gourmet and delicious! All of the staff was gracious, Eric our waiter was very attentive. The beach was a disappointment for swimming. Lovely area to stroll around near the hotel and we felt very safe.

Beautiful location, great drinks and delicious food! - What a great location. Perfect spot to enjoy great food and drinks! The service is fantastic, the food surprised me… We had Tacos Caribe, fish filet, hamburger supreme and the vegan burger and everything was delicious!! Congrats We’ll be back in January!!!

Like a movie! - Me and my husband had an incredible time! I was a little unsure because of the cost but it was definately worth it, i would do it again every time! Service and quality was outstanding! We had an incredible time and felt like we were in a movie, everything was perfect and beyond our expectations!

A Nice Relaxing Day On The Beach. - This was a great easy trip for us. We received update emails letting us know about our transportation to and from the beach before leaving on our cruise. Everything as far as communication and pick up at the port was just as advertised. I received text messages about 2 days prior. I would recommend downloading the WhatsApp as they asked me to do that for communicating better. They texted me a map of how to get from where the ship docked at the port all the way thru the shopping area of the port to where the taxi would pick us up just outside the main gate. They also sent several photos of the path we would take so we would know exactly where where needed to go. We were met by Ruth and as advertised she was there with our name on a board. They even had the specific taxi number that we would take sent to us on WhatsApp. It was about a 10 minute drive to get there and the driver pulled up and dropped us off approx 40 feet from the Beach Club Malecón21. The beach area that is a part of the Malecón is small, maybe 100 feet wide but there were plenty of chairs and tables and space both shaded and in direct sun. We had the Platinum Beach break and the drinks were good and the service was quick. We never had to ask for a refill as our waiter was Johnny-on-the-spot and kept us hydrated. Now if you are looking for somewhere to take your kids to have a large beach area for them to play on this is NOT the place. The distance between the waters edge and the first row of chairs was only a few feet. This is a place to more sit back and relax and enjoy the sun and water. Our food was surprisingly fantastic. We have to recommend the Octopus Carpaccio and the Tuna Tartare as appetizers and they were GREAT!! We also had the lobster and it was good. It was nice having the bathrooms only short 30 second walk from where we sat on the beach. Later in the day a rain squall blew in and the staff was quick to come and help everyone get their things inside Malecón21. They verified with us what time we needed to be back at the ship and already had our taxi standing by for us when we were ready to go. All in all it was easy and as advertised. I would recommend this to family and friends looking for a similar type of day.

Don’t do this one!! - We were not happy at all. Taxi driver got lost, and had to ask the local for direction. Then he dropped us off at the wrong place. We had to walk four blocks in the pouring rain in a very shady neighborhood. I definitely would not recommend doing this excursion, Area does not appear safe, and apparently they use unqualified taxi drivers to get you there. Walking four blocks in a rundown area, and a small village in Mexico does not make me feel safe, my wife was absolutely terrified. The hotel that had the food and drink package, and the beach area was OK. Nothing special, drink selection was extremely limited as well.

Terrible beach, good food - This was not a “premium” beach break by any stretch! Water was smelly and full of weeds and local stray dogs. They were filling in areas with smelly rotting seaweed right next to us that were caused by a storm the night before. This should have been done hours before we got there. The cab driver was rude and never came back to get us. The one star is for the food and staff. If it wasn’t for the staff we would still be there! Good people. Not a good beach. Stay away.
