Our days started with views of magnificent sunrises from our bedroom. We enjoyed daily breakfast of fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, French toast, pancakes & coffee served poolside. After breakfast, we were free to do as we pleased and WE DID. We enjoyed being lazy sunning ourselves on the deck overlooking the bay while Ricky served us our beverage of choice. Tennis, golf, ATV riding, and deep sea fishing are there for the taking. We opted to schedule an in-villa massage to pamper ourselves. We did not want to miss the botanas (Mexican appetizers) served about 3 pm each day. In the evening we thoroughly enjoyed a 3-course meal comprised of the most amazing food in Mexico. We can t wait to go back.
