We started staying on the beach the 1st 3-4 trips and then split beach/cliffs for 2 trips. We no longer do cliff stays at all, we were too bored during the day.

We eat and drink/visit plenty of places on the cliffs, in fact we laugh that it seems all of our favorite food places are on the cliffs but too quiet/boring during the days, we miss all of the people watching and vendors coming by. Don't get me wrong we like to sit and read as much as anyone LOL but we can do that on the beach and enjoy the distractions in front of us.
