After the trauma of Hurricane Wilma and the closing of the old Posada del Capitan Lafitte, the owners decided to continue the small resort tradition by moving down the beach to a place called Punta Bete. They leased the old Kai Kaana resort and Jorges, one of the owners committed to environmental issues, began to build some cabanas on his property next to the leased resort. Jorges is also the owner of a small “Ecological Zoo” where he keeps some of the indigenous animals, and a few oddities.<\/p>\n

The old crew once again took off their aprons and became carpenters to build a new bar and update the place. We were hoping the new place would still be wonderful, and indeed, as many of us said, “the soul of Lafitte is here.” We especially appreciated Jesus and Victor behind the bar and so many of the waiters who hung on to greet us at the new place.<\/p>\n
