Latest reviews on San Mateo's beaches

Caleta Blanca beach
10 Julian Ramirez

The beach at Cuixmala is truly a paradise.

Punta Perula Chamela
2 Marina Galiana

This hotel is absolutely terrible, so I strongly advise against making any reservations here. They claim that it's located near the sea, but it's actually situated next to an open sea where it's obviously impossible to swim. Additionally, the rooms are extremely outdated, and I can't comprehend why they charge such high prices for such poor quality.

Paraiso beach
