It's one of those hidden gems I discovered the first time I wandered Playa. There's a great art gallery (I think he's on the deal card) where there's a little shrine set up - I want to say his name is San Simeon or St. Simon (or at least I call him "el tio" because he looks like one of my uncles) - one pays respect to him by leaving a drink, a smoke and a couple of pesos - what I was told is that the saint protects you and ensures that you will have a good time.
Whatever the story is I still go pay my respects to him when I get into town.

That is the place! I will have to go visit "el tío."
