Cute, smaller beach away from the scene. A great time to experiment with surfing, or spend a day reading a book basking in the beauty of this more chilled out beach scene. Food, beverage and surf boards available on-site.

A 2-minute walk from the beach, this laid-back hotel offers views of the Pacific Ocean, and is 2 km from the Christ of the Mercy statue. Just a cool place to chill out!
