The hotel was named for carey (kah-RAY), the native word for an endangered species of sea turtle (the hawksbill) that used to lay eggs on the little beach of Careyitos that fronts the hotel. Saving the turtles at nearby Playa Teopa, accessible only through hotel property, has now become a major hotel mission. Guards do, however, allow access to serious outside visitors during hatching times; follow the dirt road between Km 49 and Km 50 to the gate and beach; no camping, please. Check with the hotel desk for information and permission.
