Our favorite restaurant, incredible people with even better food. We drive 1hr to get there, thats how much we like it. They need to open one in Pinares so we can visit. Highly recommend it!

This was a truly unexpected and wonderful experience! My husband and I were on vacation and wanted to celebrate our 27th Anniversary with our 21 year old son. Both Garrett (our son) and I have Celiac Disease, and so I searched on Find Me Gluten Free for an upscale restaurant that would meet our gluten free needs. We stumbled upon Arenas Del Mar and are so incredibly thankful we did! This is a hidden gem, primarily visited only by those who stay on this upscale resort. While we struggled to find the location, descending a twisting mountain path and parking in an obscure dirt lot, we were picked up by an upscale gentleman on a golf cart who spirited us to the restaurant itself! We enjoyed a delicious meal, were treated to the best clarification about gluten free cuisine, and celebrated our 27th Anniversary in brilliant style and company. We all 3 highly recommend Arenas Del Mar to anyone seeking a serene escape!
