About Whala!Boca Chica
A mid-size beachfront all-inclusive at the quieter western end of Boca Chica beach, popular for short stays, stopovers and weekend breaks from the capital. Small entrance off a narrow street, which is where taxi apps get it wrong.

The approach road
East on the Las Américas highway for 12 minutes, off at Boca Chica, then along the beach street to the west end. The last 200 metres are narrow and partly one-way, so the driver confirms the door the evening before.
