9 Beaches: "Flip Flops for Families" Package

Why the name "flip flops"? To make the point that at this resort, flip-flop sandals are the prevailing dress code: it's a casual place, in other words; which suits most families just fine.

9 Beaches: Introduction

9 Beaches has 18 landscaped acres, many grottos, and 9 coves; arrival is by coach from the airport to a cove where guests board a private boat for a 15 minute ride the resort, to a welcome drink.

All 84 cabanas have double doors that open onto ocean-view verandas. See photos at 9 Beaches for pretty "Top Banana" cabanas on stilts right over the water: some even have plexi-glass floor panels so guest can see tropical fish below. Note that the cabanas have ceiling fans and window screens.
