Can you guys hit me up with some suggestions? I have some Bob Marley, some Beach boys, etc but i need some more "native" stuff.

Thanks!

this is the type of music they played at the resort i went to.

You should just use a youtube video converter and download songs like this
 
Buena vista social club, all their songs rock !

If you can stream music... Use Pandora and create a Bob Marley station. non good islandy tunes.

Or use itunes radio- reggae/island - La Yaute Reggae, Caribbean Breeze, etc.
 
fuck it up. The song is Lionel Richie's All night long. that's all they played while i was down there.

You should go do this seriously

Go find Sunlounger, he is a DJ out of the mediterranean doing balearic beats as he likes to call them. His real name is Roger Shah or DJ Shah, whatever. But under his alias Sunlounger, he has been releasing albums like "Another day on the terrace" and "Sunny Tales"
When he releases those C.D.'S he releases a chill version, and a club version. Download the chill version of "sunny tales" and "another day on the terrace". It is 2 C.D.'S worth of music with no vulgarity, suggestions for doing illicit substances, and quite frankly minimal words and just downright "ambient peaceful shit". Supposedly over on Ibiza on the beach they rock this shit at cafe's and stuff all morning / afternoon. Never been there, can't say.
If you search for sunlounger chill on youtube you will get an idea of whats up, but i suggest just slapping another day on the terrace, or sunny tales on...smoking 3 doobies, and going man that was some chill shit.
I think it works, plus you can download his albums either song by song or mixed together by him with perfect studio transitions. The only negative now that I think about it is you said PARTY, well i don't know, I might listen to this shit high, or hung over sitting by the pool or lake...
It might not be upbeat enough really for a party at the same time, because it will be so chill it won't get the mood going? I don't know, it is NOT beach boys....people will not be singing along put it that way.
