YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME

Family Activities
- SEA TURTLE RELEASE
Give new meaning to ‘if you love, something set it free’ as you release Olive Ridley sea turtle hatchlings into the sea. These tiny Banderas Bay natives will make you proud as they embark on their life adventure.
- Whale Watching
The coast around the Resort is in the very heart of the migration route for humpback whales – so many and so close that they can easily be viewed from shore between December and March – so keep an eye out for these returning visitors!
- Family Bonfires
Life needs more sunsets and bonfires! Set on the picturesque shores of Cuevas beach, put your feet in the sand and make your own s'mores in front of a roaring fire.
