Popa Paradise’s chef offers a healthy, balanced and mouth-watering menu inspired by local ingredients and influenced by Latin flavors. A complimentary breakfast buffet is provided every day, with fresh fruit, home-made granola, fresh juices, and home-made breads. Each meal takes advantage of the proximity to the ocean and its incredible bounty as well as local farmers employing organic and sustainable practices. The chef can cater to a variety of dietary restrictions or food allergies.
In addition to eating off the menu, Popa Paradise Bistro offers a Chef’s Tasting. This four-course meal is paired with wines chosen by the Chef and utilizes the freshest of ingredients for a culinary journey of the senses. Popa Paradise Beach Resort also offers romantic private dinners, with personal waiter service in a location of the guests’ choice (on their casita veranda or candle-lit on the beach, for example).
The bar is accessible by the pool as a swim-up bar, or with comfortable bar tables and stools, hewn out of local trees and recycled wood on the land-side. The bartenders serve up exciting cocktails and fresh smoothies, with Caribbean familiarity and Latin flair.
