I liked the property, it was clean and staff was friendly, especially Magali one of the sales rep was super kind. Definitely a family spot since there were tons of kids in all the pools. We didn’t mind however they were running around everywhere and no one said a word. We had the lunch included plan and they still charged us for taxes and tip at the restaurant, this was different. I’ve stayed at numerous all inclusive or meal plans resorts and I have never had to pay for the taxes. Wasn’t a problem just an inconvenience and unexpected. Other than that a family spot , I wouldn’t necessarily recommend for older adults or honeymooners. On the plus side it’s in a Great location, walking distance to shopping.

The stay at the hotel was fine, the staff was very nice and it’s a quick drive to/from the airport. It’s a convenient location right next to the beach. The dining options are not that great though, the service at the restaurants is terrible and the waiting times and prices are excessive. The hours they post online don’t match the actual times they open. Also, the food is bad, not authentic.

I have stayed here many times. Each time, they try to sell you a time share at this and other properties they own. This place has become costly, compared to the restaurants through out Puerto Vallarta. A new scam they have is adding a 15% "Service Charge" to your bar and restaurant bill. This is illegal in Mexico. No property can require you to pay a gratuity. I enjoyed the pools and the beach area, but, because of remodeling, they are still down one pool. People are still saving lounges in the pool area, despite signs to the contrary. When I checked in, I asked to have my account set up so I could charge at the bar and restaurants. I wound up having to use my credit card every time. On my last day there, the maid staff knocked on my room door at 7:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. to clean my room. All of this before checkout. There are plenty of activities if you want to hang around the resort. But, there is buses nearby if you want to get away. Shopping and restaurants off the resort are also close.

The property itself was excellent. Rooms were clean, mattress was comfortable, A/C worked always pumping cold no issues with it, balcony is a good addition, family friendly, pools were always clean, staff was on point, access to the beach is up against the property and it was quiet at 11pm. we enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely book there again. Ate at the Mexican restaurant once and never went back. Not complaining bc it was free but if had paid for lunch I would have been mad. Overall I would rate this hotel 5 stars

This time staying at this location. I stayed 21 days. Had great options for meals and cuz the time you're going they offered a complimentary lunch that went from like 12:00 until 4:00 so I had a wide range of when I could stop in to eat and was able to pick from a probably a four-star menu

You won't regret it!!!!

I am a senior, widow now and decided to meet some friends who were flying from their hometown; we met there. The resort arranged for me to be picked up at the airport and so I felt very comfortable going by myself. This was my very first time; my friends have been going for years and now I know why! I was truly so incredibly impressed by the resort. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable, colourful, very large compared to other hotels I have been before, all with balcony and a kitchenette. The wonderful staff keep all the areas immaculate; always cleaning! There are countless activities, games, events, shows every day to choose from - so much happens all the time. There are 2 restaurants on the premises and the food was excellent, My booking included a free, very copious lunch every day which was a real BONUS! I truly don't have anything negative to SAY about my first visit. I know that I will go back; and I also know that I can also go myself if I desire - the resort is extremely secure. Cars coming and going are checked at the gates. I truly felt that I was "home away from home"!! Thanks Villa del Palmar for the wonderful experience.
