"Two-in-One-Hotel", formerly Sol Club Rio de Luna and Melia Rio de Mares hotels. The lobby at both resorts is nice and spacious. In the lobby of the Rio De Luna, the bar is open 24hrs and a piano player comes along every two days to play some tunes.
As far as sports and activities, the hotel offers pool, ping pong, a giant chess board, tennis, horseback riding, a well equipped gym with a sauna and also, water polo in the pool. On 900 meters of beach activities involve beach volleyball, snorkeling, kayaking, wind sailing, dancing lessons and many other competitions.
The pools are nice at both resorts. The Rio De Luna has a much bigger pool and a more relaxing atmosphere. The Rio De Mares pool is the one with the swim-up bar. Both pools have a snack bar open most of the day.
The beach is full of trees, palm trees and tons of palapas. Also, there are many flowers in this area which makes it look very nice. There are enough beach chairs for everyone!! You don't have to hurry to the beach at 8:00am to get yours; you will find plenty at any time of day. The beach is also the nicest right in front of the Rio De Luna. The Rio De Mares looks just as nice but has some small rocks in the water. It is safe to leave your thing right on the beach if you go for lunch, for a drink or to swim. The beach is private and the few locals that can access it are very friendly and will not approach you if you don't start conversing first. The sand is white and the water is crystal clear.
There are many exotic fish in the shallow end so it is perfect for snorkeling. The best part for some amazing snorkeling is right underneath the Paradises hotel where there is a coral reef holding some of the most exotic types of coral and fish. Snorkeling gear is free at the activity center.
