keep prices on the low side. The property comprises 10 cabins that can each sleep up to
four, providing tremendous bang for your buck if you're traveling in a group. There's also
a good restaurant on the premises.
Cabinas Brisa del Mar CABINA
( 8816-2294, 2643-7076; cabinasbrisadelmar@hotmail.com ; s/d/tr US$25/40/45; )
A classic no-frills surfers' crash pad, this Floridian-run spot has basic rooms with air-con,
private hot shower and cable TV, as well as a communal kitchen where you can self-cater.
If the surf is looking too small (or too big!), you can pass the time on the basketball court
or with a few games of table tennis.
Tortuga del Mar LODGE
( 2643-7132; www.tortugadelmar.net ; r US$89, studios from US$99; )
Top-end accommodations with a recession-proof midrange price tag, this newish lodge is
sheltered amid shady grounds, and has just a handful of rooms housed in a two-story
building. Tropical modern is the style, making excellent use of local hardwoods to con-
struct lofty ceilings that catch every gust of the Pacific breezes.
The larger studios are spacious and even feature mini kitchenettes that make self-cater-
ing a real possibility within this price bracket.
Cabinas Las Olas Hotel CABINA
( 2643-7021; www.lasolashotel.com ; r US$45-75, skyboxes US$100; )
This distinctive three-story A-frame building is home to an awesome 'skybox room', a
teak-accented, ocean-facing penthouse where you can fall asleep to the sounds of the surf
and wake to a surf check. If that's booked, you can also rent one of several beachside
rooms, from spartan budget digs to bigger rooms that include kitchenettes and sleep up to
three.
