Awesome day at LaPlaya. 18 holes of golf with a nice tee bag and ball marker gift (since we were resort guests). Course was in great shape despite being in the “off season”. Then lunch on the terrace. The food was delicious, and Chef Cheryl and Tyler were super hospitable. Grouper tacos, avocado and salmon salad, cheeseburger wrap were awesome.
