Romantic Night for dinner on the beach

wlphoto · 07-23-2012

Hey everyone,

Im going to PDC in a couple weeks for the week of my girlfriends birthday. Id like to take her to a nice romantic dinner on the beach. Ive seen a few threads here about it from a few years ago and it seems like al cielo might be the best. But i was wondering if there are any other places, maybe some that have popped up recently that you can recommend. Seafood would be nice. I want it to be just us on the beach and not 40 other tables with white plastic chairs surrounding us.

Also, any good recommendations for a limo service down there from our hotel?

I second this question. I'm coming down soon and would like something similar although minus the limo.

Interested in this also! Any suggestions out there?

If money is no object Maroma Resort can accommodate you: Restaurants and Bars on the Riviera Maya - Maroma Resort and Spa - Special Dinners They do accept people not staying at the resort. It's ~20 minutes from Playa. As for a limo: Maroma can make arrangements, if you book a dinner. When you/if you book the dinner; please mention my name at the time of booking. I have been to Maroma over 40 times & everyone knows me.

Snappy & Heather will attest to the romanticism & quality of food.

Do you know around how much would it be?

No idea; I'd guess around $250 USD. Call or e-mail them. Here's the chefs profile: Restaurants and Bars on the Riviera Maya - Maroma Resort and Spa - Chefs Profile

I ended up emailing them.. It's definitely out of our budget but in case wlphoto or any one else is interested in Maroma's special dinner.

"Our special dinners have a cost of $245 us per person (+11% tax + 15% service) and includes a five-course dinner, a private bonfire (only dinners on the beach), a private waiter a bottle of Champagne and the romantic decoration of your table.
It does not include any other beverages but we can add a wine pairing for $75 dollars per person (+11% tax +15% service)."

If anyone has any other suggestions on romantic dinners on the beach or romantic restaurants in general.. I would love to know.

wlphoto · 07-25-2012

wow. i was going to email them to see. 245+ 26% worth of taxes brings it out to 308.70 per person without drinks. That's a bit too much. Thanks for the suggestion though Arnie.

Anyone else? Thanks

Romance is what you make yourself.

A couple carry out dinners from Cheesters=25 us, a bottle of wine, 20 us, a blanket to throw on the beach, 5 us. No waiters, no music, unlimited time....priceless. All equals $50.00.

This is my kind of romantic dinner

We do this all the time in the summer at home (no open container laws in our town) because most restaurants are ridiculously $$$ and very overcrowded. Nothing better than a relaxing night on the beach with your loved one

I have to agree. You can make a much more romantic and intimate dinner date on the beach with your own food and drink and a blanket, watching the waves roll in with the beautiful horizon in the background.

I'm drawing a blank. Most places on or just off the beach are going to be full of tourists it's the nature of the beast.

We had a nice dinner at the beach at La Tarraya back in 2003

Seakony · 07-25-2012

Maybe check out Tulum...there may be a nice place there and worth the cost of a limo since it's 40 minutes away. The beach there is also gorgeous!

I would recommend Zenzi, they can pull out a table to make it almost private I have seen settings that look super romantic and the price is definetely not as expensive
e mail Margarita or Rick or Guus at
