Right on the beach in Nuevo. $5 for an orangeade. $12 for 6 grilled shrimp topped with spicy ketchup (Shrimp Diablo? I dont think so...) Wood tables on the sand, ok service and marginal food. A lunch will set you back almost $50. Obviously out to scalp wealthy vacationers & the unwary. 15% TIPS are included automatically. Don't like food... More

We loved this private beach club in Nuevo Vallarta! We visited twice while staying the Marina section of Puerto Vallarta for a week. The staff was very accomodating, the food is generous(kids can split the large cheeseburger) and the coconut shrimp was huge! They set up a table,chairs and umbrella on the front row just for us! Great beach and... More

Short walk from Dreams hotel. Wonderful drinks & food. So sorry to hear it might be taken over by Marievel hotel to become a private club. What a waste of a wondeful place that everyone can enjoy.

They claim they are exclusive. Yea, if you charge up to $4.00 a beer I guess that makes you exclusive and the tip is automatic weather you got good service or not. Lunch of very mediocre food with two beers (lunch was a burger) for two of us was $50.00 Spoke with the ex pat locals and they just laughed... More

We go to ETC as often as possible. Very relaxing on lounges by the ocean under umbrellas and lovely music. Snacks and drinks are good and reasonable. We love this place.

I love this place it is a great place to relax and enjoy drink with friends anytime, anyday. The water is feet away so you can enjoy a dip and return for some drinks. The food is very good also, great taste at moderate prices. If in nuevo vallarta i recomend this place the wait staff is excellent, always attentive... More

Good guacamole! We also tried to buy one of their t-shirts but our waiter didn't speak much English and found out that they were for "staff only".

When my friends and I visited the E.T.C. beach Club, it was nothing more than some tables along the beach, which you can find anywhere in this part of mexico. Where they got the "Club" from, i still have no clue. What was really disappointing was that when you walk into the open air location, there is a "station" where... More

I spent the day here with my family today. One of the managers of the house we are renting mentioned it was a good place to spend the day so we thought we'd try it out. I haven't been to Puerto Vallarta for many years and never went over to Nuevo Vallarta. They did a fabulous job developing this area.... More
