This is a delicious Argentinian style steakhouse located in Puerto Carrillo, just minutes from Casa Ethos. Great for a special night out. Insider tip- If you would like a baked potato to accompany your meal, you need to call and reserve/preorder one during the daytime.

Conveniently located directly across the street from Samara beach. You will find a variety of casual foods offered in the natural center. It is like a beach side food court. The Mozzarella pizza (Italian wood fired pizza), Cafe Maxou (amazing burgers with housemate buns, the best fries around, special gelato & crepes) and Mr Pelicano (inexpensive seafood)our favorites.

While it doesn't look like much- these guys have the freshest fish available. Fair prices and Ive always been treated with ample kindness even though my Spanish skills leave a lot to be desired. If they have grouper- give it a try. They will clean ands filet any fish for you and give you ice for the road if requested.

This Bech is just a 3 minute drive from Casa Ethos. It is lined with coconut palms and easily accessed. You can park right along the beach which makes this an easy destination to take a swim in the calm waves, walk and beachcomb or hang a hammock and take in the Pura Vida.
