Local Shopping: Plaza La Estrella is the perfect place to shop for Cuban cigars, rums, and unique handicrafts.
Access:
Guests staying at Royalton Cayo Santa Maria, Starfish Cayo Santa Maria, and Memories Paraiso Beach Resort can easily walk to the plaza.
Other hotel guests can take a taxi or use the Hop-on/Hop-off Panoramic Bus (USD 5 per person per day), which stops at various hotels, plazas, and the dolphinarium.
--------From Playa Cayo Santa Maria Resort, you can check with the receptionist to see when they're be able to drop you off at the shopping for FREE. They normally come every 1 hour, just tip the driver. You can take the hop on hop off tour bus for $5/day/person, or take the taxi for $10 (they asked for $10US, but we said 10 CAD and they're ok. I think that's still expensive for a 5min drive.)
Have fun and enjoy shopping!
