My wife has decided that a c/o beach is as nude as I get to be on vacation this year. Has anyone been here? Thoughts on the resort? How's the c/o beach? Long enough for walks?

We were at Hawksbill last a LONG time ago, maybe 15 years ago, and we only went on a day pass, so our memory might not be the best. At that time, the beach itself had a lot of coral, and there were only a couple places to get into the water that you wouldn't need water shoes for. To get TO the nude beach was a decent walk from the rooms. The beach itself might have been maybe half the length of Papagayo to Pedro's section of Club O beach, although my memory may be a little bad there. There are NO services on the nude beach at all, so you need to bring in your own food and drink and there are no restrooms there. When we were there--again--a LONG time ago---the chairs were not in particularly good shape on that beach and I don't remember any umbrellas or shade, but that I wouldn't vouch for personally. I understand the resort is now an a/i.

That's pretty much as I remember the nude beach when we stayed there, also many years ago. It's not the greatest destination.

We were there for one day a while ago - not 15 years, but it's been a good number. There was no off beach snorkeling the day we were there because of sea conditions. We thought the resort was beautiful. Beach 4, Eden Beach, is the C/O beach and it was pretty deserted when we were there. They did have a water cooler on the beach and some decent lounge chairs, but that was it.

Eden Beach looks to be pretty long by the pictures. I wonder if they used the small beach by the cove as the c/o beach way back in the past.

Some views of Hawksbill. In the first pic, Eden Beach is the far one.
