Great beaches, great weather, great nightlife, exceptionally organised and very easy to org tours, transfers etc. Lots of other backpackers and holiday makers to meet and share stories with.
Tho being a major tourist town however shopping and drinks at bar/clubs arnt very cheap!
- Insider tip:I definatly recommend booking and going on one of the Wed or Sat night pub crawls, definatly value for money and an awesome night out.
