We've not done the beach excursion via Carnival, though we have stayed in the past at the La Jolla de Mismaloya.

 

Pros:

It's a very nice spot along a small bay

Quick jump out to Los Arcos for snorkeling from boats right at the beach

Pools are very nice

 

Cons:

The beach is pretty small

There's not much around the resort

It takes a while to get there (around 25 minutes)

 

My suggestion? Also consider the Krystal (within walking distance) or the Westin (short cab ride) and the hotel right across from the pier. You'd have a very similar experience, and it could be much less expensive (depending on how much you want to eat or drink). You could probably also book a massage at the Krystal and might still be less than the ship excursion!

I actually do recommend mismaloya, it is secluded and off the beaten path, am trying to decide if i want to atake the cab thee, as i love the lifttle path up to the ruins for "night of the iguana" and the view of los arcos, have also styayed at the la jolla.

I do not know what the hotel is like, but like the OP said, the beach is small. We had a nice day there..we were staying at an all inclusive futher up the coast. We took the bus to Mis. beach-saw where they filmed Night of the Ig. and ate some food at a small restaurant on the beach. Not certain what the ships tour costs, but you could easily cab it or bus it from the dock for what I suspect would be a fraction of the cost. Then go somewhere else either earlier or later in the day.
