Okay, here's the latest regarding Orient Beach. Kon Tiki has really expanded and is now around 30% larger. They also charge $30 for 2 chairs and one umbrella! What crooks and who did they pay in the French govt. to get the extra space and gouge the people! Next, Kao (name?)beach, next to Kon Tiki charges $25 for the same deal. Wow! How nice! Closer to Pedro's where the work zone is occurring, the places trying to make an honest living charge $10 for 2 chairs and an umbrella! They do have plenty of chairs and umbrellas! There's also plenty of parking behind the buildings. Yes, they don't have any restrooms and food because of lack of electricity and water. But, for us, we will NOT pay those rip off prices for the 2 big guys with the Govt. pull who are gouging people. You can eat food and go to a restroom at Pedro's. They are charging a reasonable price for their food. Please don't pay those outlandish prices charged by Kon Tiki and their next door neighbor! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> Finally, we've never seen so many umbrellas in use at Club Orient. They were 3 deep and literally lined up from Pedro's south, to the end of the beach. Wow! This re-construction garbage going on has been quite a boon for Club Orient! I would say, go to Orient Beach and enjoy but, just be aware of pricing!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />
