It is probably a 5 minute walk and you have to cross the road to get to the beach (i.e. it is not like Palm Beach where the hotels are right on the beach). As for restaurants, Madame Janette is fairly close (although you will need a cab/need to drive there). There are also some American fast food restaurants close by if you are just looking for a quick bite (If I remember correctly, I think there is a Pizza Hut and Taco Bell within walking distance of the resort).

Here http://www.wikimapia.org/#lat=12.5518721&lon=-70.05445&z=18&l=0&m=a&v=2 is an aerial of the resort, road and beach.

Make sure you check out the infamous Fofoti tree at the end of the Amsterdam Manor's beach http://www.wikimapia.org/#lat=12.5545321&lon=-70.0550079&z=17&l=0&m=a&v=2

Dina, The beach is right across the street from the resort and literally 150 yards from the pool. It's very safe crossing the street there and usually a guard is there too. Chalet Suisse is good and there are a couple more but the names escape me. Have fun.

The beach is really close. There's a beach bar as well, therefore you won't need to go back and forth for your drink.

Chalet Suisse, Le Dome and Screaming Eagle are good close-by restaurants. (Walking distance)

And pay attention to the happy hour prices, sometimes its two drinks for one
