All the staff was good, there's a controlled entrance, great food out waitress Nayeli did a great job keeping us served at all times. It could be better if you could be specific about the areas available to be reserved, there's are table and chair options but there are also chaise lounges and pergolas but it doesn't seem up to the visitor to decide what they want.

A true little gem. I’m so surprised it doesn’t have more reviews. We had an amazing time yesterday. It wasn’t just a meal, it was a full experience. From the warm welcome to the beautiful table, everything was perfect. Juan Antonio, our server, was incredibly friendly and always smiling, and the rest of the staff were just as welcoming. The presentation, the flavors, the service—every detail was spot on. You absolutely deserve my 5-star review on Google! We had requested a table by the little lake in advance, and they accommodated us perfectly.

About the restaurant

Chic, cool and casual! The Caribbean water is crystal clear, lagoon-like as you can walk for quite a distance without getting in over your head. The water almost appears white in some areas. The sand is oh so white, with palm trees and gardens lining the restaurant and beach. There is an exquisite palm grove where private parties are catered to by Playa Blanca Restaurant. The tropical and international menu is excellent and the drinks divine!
