Hermosa Palms Beach Club pool glowing at sunset beneath tropical palms

Your oceanfront place to exhale

Meet at the pool.
Stay for the ocean.

Every Casa Lapa stay includes registered-guest access to the private Hermosa Palms Beach Club—an oceanfront place to swim, eat and watch the sky change.

Discover the Beach Club

The pool, the palms
and the Pacific.

This is the real setting included with every Casa Lapa stay: a private community club at the edge of Playa Hermosa, with room to swim, relax, eat and watch the waves roll in.

The road home

From open wetlands
to Hermosa Palms.

The final approach changes quickly: rain-fed green wetlands, tropical shade, then the private entrance and palms of Hermosa Palms. Jeff filmed this real morning ride on the way home.

The private club is shared by Hermosa Palms residents and their registered guests, not open to the general public. Cool off after a surf, spend an unhurried afternoon with the family, or watch the Pacific move from the shade.

The main pool includes a shallow toddler area and a gently sloped, beach-like entry made for easy lounging. Casa Lapa’s private small pool is separate and belongs only to the first-floor stay.

Meet you
at YoYo’s.

YoYo’s Food & Bar brings a colorful, ocean-view restaurant and swim-up bar experience to the Beach Club. Order from the pool, settle in for a relaxed meal and let the coast set the pace.

Mystika Spa.
A slower rhythm.

Mystika Spa is located at the Hermosa Palms Beach Club and offers a calm counterpoint to the surf, sun and movement outside. Ask Jeff about adding a treatment to your stay, or contact the spa directly for its current menu and availability.

At the Beach ClubMassage, care and time to reset.

Mystika operates independently. Treatments, pricing and appointment times are arranged separately and are not included with a Casa Lapa booking.

The walk home is part of it

Sometimes the
neighborhood becomes the view.

Beach Club afternoons do not end at the pool. Casa Lapa sits inside the same lush tropical community, where palms, fruit trees and flowering plants frame the rooftops. The old almendras are neighborhood landmarks—and gathering places for the scarlet macaws that feed on their fruit.

Seen here, not sourced elsewhere. Jeff photographed this sky from inside Hermosa Palms—the real color and character around Casa Lapa.
