thx Ken, my they have gotten high on price.
2 people in a palapa have to spend $40 now?
i could go with $10 to set up a tent on a nice beach but....dang, i will miss those old bat and termite infested huts! we used to pay $20 total for a
hut and that was not too long ago. |
Personally, I liked LA Bay much better, because I loved looking at the islands, and having a little infrastructure isn't necessarily a bad thing.
PSFO had cold showers, the drive felt excessive, and the people running PSFO charged our group for the full use of a palapa because we huddled under
the awning of Palapa #7 because it was raining, and all of our gear was getting soaked.
I know the economy is tanking right now, but the management wouldn't budge on charging us the money. I paid it myself, but I was a little surprised
with the hard-line attitude we were fed. Live & learn, I guess.

that sucks - what they did was abusive, Genaro RIP would never have done that.
there is talk of a makeover for PSFO given the apparent scuffle in the ownership family. i hope someone with a lick of sense takes charges, cleans it
up, puts in friendly service oriented management and makes it the go it once was!!
i hope you told the SOB you would not be coming back. Some Mexicans could use a dose of business education.

It was a tense discussion, but not from my end. I was intending to tip the people there, but after being told several times (like I'm an idiot)
that our group used the Palapa, I considered the extra $20 to be a conribution to their children's Elementary Education scholarship fund.

That explains what I saw! It was a bit more disassembled when I got there. At least I assume that guy in the red truck is stripping off parts rather than
trying to rebuild the plane

We were in San Francisquito a few weeks ago - it is per person, both on the beach and the palapas. We camped where the old camping palapas used to be
but its a hoof the banos!
The plane was gone when we were there. There was a helicopter and a mining exploration company based in Chihuahua there.
We also noticed the Campo San Rafael sign but didn't stop in to say hi.
