Food & Drinks at Atolón Beach Club
Seafood is the main draw. Skewered fish and tuna are what people mention most, and the small plates format suits a long, relaxed lunch. Tartines also come up in reviews as worth ordering.
The bar is a highlight. Cocktails get consistent praise, and so does the coffee, which is less common at beach clubs. Beer, wine, hard spirits and soft drinks are all available.
The menu also includes healthy options. Lunch and dinner are both popular, with full table service. It's tagged as Fine Dining but the atmosphere stays relaxed throughout.
