March trip, and although the beaches sound wonderful, are there any beaches that provide chairs to lounge in and a bar to be able to get an umbrella (or any other) drink while taking it easy on the beach. I'm sure the beaches will be great regardless, but those things would make it even more relaxing for me!

If you know specifically, what are the beaches like at Villa Nicolas and Mango Moon, the two places I'm deciding between.

My trip to MA isn't till February, so I can only speak from what I've read. I get the impression all the properties are up the hill, then there's one long stretch of public beach that serves all of these. I have read that there are locals who rent out chairs for pretty cheap, and there's little sandwich/beer stands along the beach. I don't think there's named beaches specifically that have these amentities or don't. Also, to my knowledge, there's no rentals or food for sale at beaches that are inside the MA park.

Most of the nicer properties are indeed up on the hill . Villas Nicolas does not have a beach , you use the beaches either in , or just outside the park . Mango Moon is on the little road which takes you down to Beisanz Beach , which is a small cove beach , but not directly on the beach . Both are very sweet places . The public beach does have chairs , and at on place will even serve you drinks . But these are beautiful , exotic , central american style beaches , NOT in the same vein as an Anguilla beach etc. Very beautiful nonetheless , just in a different way . Beaches in the park are a bit prettier .

Tulemar Bungalows has a beautiful private beach, with amenities, every bit as pretty as in the park. We really enjoyed it.

Tulemars beach is indeed cute , and you can easily kayak from there to Beisanz , passing Makandas little beach on the way , and actually there is a public path to tulemar so anyone can use the beach .
