Specifically places we can walk to, for lunch/dinners and drinks? We are leaning toward staying here in June vs. the Marriott Surf Club. We have stayed at the Marriott Stellaris before and liked how close everything is. After reading reviews it seems like the Surf Club might be over the top crowded which does not sound very appealing. We don't mind cabbing, but would hope to have some close by walking options. Any info would be much appreciated!

Dos Locos restaurant is walking distance from Oceana. Down the side street nearest your location. Very good food and excellent prices.

Thank you all so much! This helps ease my mind, I was really worried about not being able to get anywhere without a drive.
