Here, local fishermen bring in an abundance of fresh catches like tuna, yellowtail, dorado, red snapper, grouper, mackerel, and marlin. Our chefs transform these ocean treasures into mouth-watering dishes, such as grilled fish with olive oil, lime, and salt or tantalizing fish tacos with fresh toppings and savory salsas.

A Day of Culinary Delight: Each day of your retreat is a culinary journey. From early morning continental snacks to a plated brunch, afternoon snacks, and light bites, to a family-style dinner – every meal is crafted to leave you satisfied and satiated.
