Soft White sands with gentle falls. The beach at Santo Tomas is one of the few resorts with hotels so close to the beach. It also has a long promenade parallel to beach , again a rarity ( due to environmental practices )
Es Pins beach bar/restuarant is good. Restaurants, supermarkets are all a short walk away
The local Virgin beach is a 20-40 minute walk westwards to Playa Binigaus. Nice long walks to neighbouring Son Bou beach and back ( sundown recommended )
