Seabather's eruption - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia maybe? I know the larvae are running in early December. Found them on the first trip.

Or my continuing favorite, Hydroids, the Photographer' Friend?

If you went to Casa Mexicana, do they still serve the "cook to order" breakfast in the morning?

Did you notice any music/bass thumping at night>?

Hydroids would be my guess as well.
Try some topical Benadryl. I'm allergic to hydroids so I don't leave home without a bottle of this:
BENADRYL® Anti-Itch Gel Extra Strength | Anti-Itch Medication
You can get it CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens, wally world...
It effects everyone differently. It will go away. No worries. You might have a couple itchy days then it will subside.
I see a full suit or dive skin in your future.

My wife and I stayed at Casa Mexicana in August of this year. They have a buffet breakfast, but cook eggs, pancakes and waffles to order. No thumping music either.

Me too, suits are for sissies. Commando is the way to go.

Luckily, hydroid dont bother me as much as alot of people, but I have found a little solarcaine helps. I had it in the condo, so I spray a little on where my shorts were rubbing.
