So, it's kind of a ways from downtown, but this is us standing at the bus stop right across the street and taking the bus into town was less than a dollar.
We were there on Sunday so we found an LDS church and took the bus to it. It was pretty fun to go to church down there even though I understood very little.
It has a private beach - this is looking down at it from the balcony.
And there is a restaurant and pool on the coast.
When we were there, hardly anyone else was there. Their busy season is from October to like March, so I bet you'll be fairly alone as well if you go there.
Here's another shot of the beach on ground level. The restaurant and pool sit inbetween two beaches. The south beach opens up to the hotel next door, but the north beach is closed of by this peninsula.
This is us eating at the restaurant on site. We actually ate there quite a bit. It was really good food and if you eat there, get their watermelon icy type thing. It's awesome - don't worry, no alcohol. :) I remember this place being fairly inexpensive, depending on what you ordered, but even the cheap stuff was good.A look at the pool area from inside the restuarant.
We really enjoyed the pool, especially after being in the salty ocean.
This is the kitchen. The only thing I'm not sure they had was an oven, but there was a cooktop, microwave, fridge, freezer, and sink. And they have all the dishes you'd need, plus a few spices. There's a market in town that sold everything. I even bought hair gel because it was SO HUMID that's all I could do with my hair.
This is the bedroom upstairs. King size bed. 
This is the living room downstairs. It opens up into the kitchen.
And the dining room - basically in the living room.
They have a tv and vcr, with a few movies...but kind of weird ones if I remember right. You could bring some, though.This is the veiw outside the front door on the way to the elevator.
They have all this stuff in their closet, so we went to the beach quite a bit.
I know we brought snorkel gear, but I think they might have had some, too.
As far as things to do, we ate at this really nice restaurant called Le Kliff. The atmosphere was awesome, the food was ok. But it was on a cliff during sunset, so it was pretty cool. This was the most expensive place we ate.

We also rode horses through the jungle.
It was kind of hot, but we ended up here:
It's a rock slide.
With a restaurant.
We also went snorkeling with Chato - he was recommended to us by my dad.
We really liked that. So many colorful fish!Another thing we did is hike through the jungle to a waterfall. It rained on us - but it was warm rain - so fun.
Brent jumped off the waterfall.
And this is down town at a street vendor. Brent got something. I didn't.
