Villa Del Palmar Beach Resort & Spa Puerto Vallarta Mexico. Best Hotel Deals & Reviews

	Date of Stay: June, 2009
We had a great experience at this hotel. There were great restaurants and bars at the hotel. Along with multiple pools. Our rooms also had great kitchens so we were able to cook and eat inside our room a lot. The staff was extremely friendly and met all of our needs. We hardly ever felt the need to leave the resort. It also had great access to the beach. We were very happy with our 10 day stay.

The whole resort was beautiful and clean. We had a strange odor in our first room so they kindly moved us to a better one. I know the beach is federal property in front of the resort and we were not there during peak tourist season, but the beach was very dirty and unappealing so we stayed at the pool. The gov't. Or the resort needs to clean up all the plastic, etc. so it looks much more attractive. Otherwise, the facility was excellent.

Prefer this hotel zone over downtown area. Quick taxi ride gets you into downtown for $5.00USD. Hotel was nice, good food but upon arrival the hotel staff will trick you into time-share sales for other "villa" properties but being overly helpful acting as if they are your personal concierge. The check-in staff will direct you to another staff member acting like the check in process is being continued with them, but instead they start their sales pitch after explaining the hotel features to you as if they're trying to be helpful when in actuality they are luring you in and wasting your time. However, once we were firm on "not interested" for the remainder of our stay they left us alone. The wait staff was great and our room was kept very clean. In fact, the entire property is kept nice at all times. This is a "credit only" hotel. Mandatory that all food, beverage, charges, etc be put on your card - no cash exchange during your stay. At check-out you have option to pay in pesos or bill to credit card. The will charge you appx. 40 pesos per day tip charges on your invoice. You could dispute it at the end of stay if you had bad service/ not satisfied etc.

This was our 4th stay at the Villa Del Palmar and our best so far. We are not time share owners, but if we were, this is where we would buy. The hotel is not the fanciest but they take extremely good care of the building and the grounds. There staff is up all night sweep and mopping every side walk, the pool area, and even the parking lot. I know, because I am an early riser(4-5am) and would walk the grounds and see the hard work they put in. The hotel offers 3 pools with 3 different experiences. There is the quiet pool(great to sit by with your favorite book), the main pool(great, if you want to be involved in activities), and the beach pool(right by the sand, under the palm trees). The staff is great, friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning again in the future!

Listen to music while sit on the whirlpool. Lobby too hot and no air condition. We like the view of the beach.

I have been to many places in PV and this is the very best in service and making you comfortable. They always make me feel like I have come back home every time I arrive! I feel I have made real connections with the people who work there, they are incredibly helpful espicially the bellman! I always feel very safe and it is so clean I never wear shoes! All of my friends have had such a blast! I never will have to worry about having company to go with me to Mexico!!

Staff were friendly and helpful, right on the beach, and had tons of fun activities at the pool!

Beautifull beach view. No activity. It is a nice hotel for comforttable price. The food price for event not worth the money.

Excellent last minute inexpensive vacation with upscale facilities, staff, location and amenities. It was so relaxing which was what we were looking for. Usual time-share people but he was actually very helpful and gave us a few enjoyable gifts and helped with small room problem. He obtained a better room for us. To Orbitz: I suggest you list specials on your trip summery papers. Hotel has so many special deals that checkout had to call Obitz or someone to verify our purchased special deal as it was not on our Orbitz paper work. It was easily resolved but somewhat minor delay

Located by the beach. Room did not have ocean view, too early closing for swimming pool! Great location, by the beach but no view to the ocean and they close down the swimming pool by 10 pm too early if you ask me!

Our children are 3 years old and 18 months. Neither of them care for the heat so our priority is having a cool comfortable room, and a great pool. The Villa del Palmar had a very well stocked, clean and comfortable room with a full kitchen and bath - and an AMAZING pool! There is a large pool with a small waterslide and there is also a kiddie pool where there is a wading area that steps down to approximately 2 ft depth and then 4-5 ft. We could stand in the deeper part and supervise our toddler splashing in the wading pool - all while getting drinks brought to us poolside from the restaurant. :) This was a great value for the money. We shopped and stocked our refrigerator with basics to save money on eating out and were able to spend our time enjoying the beach and pools.

I did not like the check in process. They pretty much try to force you to go on a time share presentation. I am on vacation and am not interested in a time share.

The people were extremely nice and helpful! They have a mandatory cleaning fee for the staff. It's a tip, that's mandatory! This hotel is in need of a remodeling. The rooms have a musty smell, which is typical of rooms in high humidity areas if they are not used that often.

I knew this was a time share property prior to booking so I knew what to expect: sales persons hounding you from the minute you walked into the door. The property was dated but clean and well maintained. Only 1 restaurant actually served food..the other one, Jalisco's, always seemed to be closed. 2 pools and 2 spas on property made for leisurely days in the sun. Staff was helpful although the first room we checked into had not been cleaned and had food and garbage on the counters and floors. We were quickly moved to another room. All in all, a good value hotel for the money. Location was close to the center, only a 5 minute taxi ride.

We had a great time and all at a very reasonable price. We knew going in that there would be something that wouldn't work out just right but everything turned out great. The pools were all great, the grounds were immaculate and the only thing that i could say that would be on the negative side is that the rooms could use a little updating. The rooms were more than adequate - we had two of the one bedroom suites that were very comfortable just a bit dated but for the price were more than acceptable and comfortable. Initially when we checked in we were concerned that our rooms weren't connected leaving us three floors from our kids, but when we walked around the place and saw that the property was very safe we no longer worried even with our daughters walking between the floors late at night. This property is in a great location close enough to down town, but not too close. Don't be afraid to ask the concierge desk the best way to get around - the buses gonig to and from downtown are very cheap and part of the Mexican experience. The person who helped us to get familiar with the resort right after we checked in was so accommodating and informative that if we ever had any questions she was there to assist. All of the staff were overly accommodating and I would not hesitate in the least to return to this resort or to allow my daughter to visit next year for her sprint break. PV, from everything we could tell from being there for a week, is a very safe environment. This resort is a time share that has been around for over 20 years so many of the people staying there are time share owners that keep coming back year after year.

Convenient, friendly, helpful, clean and a great spa. Nothing. Hotel is in a super location, is a lovely property with three great pools for whatever you want to do. Great activities for all who want to participate and restaurants are good. Staff is great and very helpful.

I booked my trip on line and I loved everything in the hotel! The staff was very nice and professional. My room was great! Always clean! They even held my luggage while I shopped downtown before heading out to the airport!!! I would so go back!

I believe this hotel was fantastic in its time. It now is in need of renovation, however, very clean and well organized -- good value. The restaurants we well managed and the food was good. The service was very good and staff was friendly. The beach was fabulous, you can walk for at a couple of miles. Nearby there were a few small interesting towns: La Penita and Salulito (I apologize I don't know if the spelling is correct). If you want to experience real Mexican culture: family and friends. This is the place to visit. It has not been engulfed in Americanization. It still has a lot character and fascinating natural beauty. Great place to relax! With Puerto Vallarta so close, you can get it all.

Very central. Room service affordable and DELICIOUS. All staff very friendly with exception of check in staff. TIMESHARE salespeople. I loved our visit here! The staff was so friendly and helpful. Julio at the pool was the BEST! We will definitely go back and I have no desire to try anywhere else.
