Bonaca Restauant & Lounge Bar

Fodor's choice

Come here for the incredible views of the beaches below this almost floating restaurant bar. A modern, all-glass, multi-tiered venue, it offers excellent cocktails, tasty bites, live music, and space for group gatherings. But it's really the panoramic views of the sea, the sailboats gliding by, and the beachgoers just below that keep visitors coming back to this beautiful place.

Beach Bar La Playa

Just down the beach from Splendid Resort and a short walk through the forest, you'll find this casual waterfront bar and lounge. Tasty cocktails and cool live music can be found here on most summer nights. Three terraces and vibrant lighting mark this waterfront hot spot as the place to be after a long lazy day on the beach.

E&D Lounge Bar

Set in a landscaped garden with a small swimming pool surrounded by stylish lounge chairs, E&D "Day and Night" Lounge Bar is the perfect place to hang during the day with a leisurely coffee or beer as you enjoy the views over the sea and beaches below. At night in summer, the lounge comes alive with DJ dance parties. During the height of the summer season, the bar also serves light Mediterranean dishes, ice cream, and other desserts.
