This resort is easy on the pocketbook and still offers couples
plenty of activity. The rooms here are separated from the beach
by the golf course, but some days you can still hear the waves
rolling in on this Atlantic side which is too rough for snorkeling
but nice for a romp in the surf.

beachfront, all-inclusive, casino, golf, tennis, watersports
