You'll forget where you are in Amalur's restaurant - with its white stucco walls, arched
windows and delicious tapas, you'll get the impression you've walked into a Spanish
tav-
erna
. Somehow, it suits Canoa perfectly. Come for the robust portions and artisanal sand-
wiches.
Accommodations
•
Hotel Baloo
South end of Canoa beach
$
Baloo is a set of bamboo cabins spaced by jungled greenery away from the noise. Their
bar boasts the coldest beer in town, and there's nothing more
Canoa
than drinking one on
their wooden outdoor bar while the sun sets over the Pacific. Ask them about their surf
school and yoga camp.

Hotel Bambú

$-$$
These are the free cocktail-for-trash guys who have hammocks, cabins and a camping area
right on the beach. If you're not up for picking trash, their 3-for-1 happy hour is one of the
most popular in town, and pretty affordable. The best rooms have balconies, while the
cheapest have clean, shared bathrooms.
