Playa Penca has lighter sand than prieta, and still no one else in sight.

The “ casita” was clean, but very much outdated.I would suggest some improvements, especially in the bathrooms. The staff were friendly and polite. The outdoor areas were very beautiful, clean, quiet.

Flamingo beach is really close and has a great sunset especially if you eat at coco loco restaurant

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Very much a third world country. Dirty and unsafe. Beach water was black at Potrero.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

It was quiet but the sand is very dark and looks like the water is black but its quite clear the further you go in

4/5 - Good

Screwnmom

Potrero is a small sleepy town with lots of dining options but no shopping really which was a downer for my teenage daughter. Lots of expats. I chose it for its convenience to the dive shop I was patronizing.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

The roads don’t have a walkway for pedestrians and biking is not safe at all. Al night is very dark.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

No side walks. Bulls walk the streets at night and during the day and it made it dangerous for drivers!
