As a timeshare owner in Cabo San Lucas, I booked my stay in Puerto Vallarta expecting a spectacular stay. Upon arrival, I found my 1 bedroom room in need of a makeover. The smell of sewage often filled the room even with the air conditioner on. The choice of on site restaurants was limited as well. I pay annual maintenance... more

Just got back from VDP stayed a week from the 17th to the 24th, got lucky to get a direct flight out of NWK which was nice so got in early on Sat. which I think worked in our favor to avoid some of the horror stories alot of people have had on here. Also we traded a time share... more

We chose Villa Del Palmar with some trepidation, after reading many of the reviews. I've decided that there are more people writing reviews if they've had a bad experience! Our experience was very good. The hotel itself was very nice. We DID experience a problem at check in; the rooms we had reserved supposedly did not exist (large studio with... more

Arrived at hotel having booked it for 5 people in Dec 07. Immediately were told that there was a problem with our reservation. Did accommodate us to an acceptable arrangement however is frustrating to have travelled a distance and have to deal with an other than smoothe arrival. Otherwise, hotel very clean, pleasant staff, food was good and hotel close... more

My boyfriend and I went to Villa del Palmar for a romantic getaway (on a budget) and were pleasantly surprised. We orignally booked a king studio, but they gave us a complimentary upgrade to a one bedroom king, which wound up being a loft with a balcony. The room was absolutely gorgeous with a cast iron railing heading upstairs and... more

This is the second time we've stayed at Villa del Palmar. There has been some maintenance and improvements since four years ago. The pool was very clean and the grounds are kept in excellent shape. Our one bedroom room was very nice though the beds are hard. We always take some of the downs like the hard bed with acceptance... more

My husband and I planned to pamper ourselves with a trip to a world class resort, we were disappointed. The only time that the front desk staff was helpful was when they were trying to get us to take the time share tour. The eqipment rental staff was only there in the mornings, and they wouldn't let you swim to... more

I just returned from from a four night stay at Villa Del Palmar with my Mom for Mother's Day. I booked at this hotel because I wanted my mom to have a good experience even if she never left the hotel or the room for that matter. She has a bad back that makes it hard for her to get... more

Just returned last night from our one week stay and have only positive things to say about this resort. We traded our Aruba timeshare for this and we were a little aprehensive because of the negative reviews. We we very happy from the speedy, courteous check-in through the express check-out , so there really isn't anything negative to report. The... more

This resort is by no stretch of the imagination a 5 star resort. The common areas - lobby, pool, and grounds were very nice. It was close to the grocery store - Soriana's is just across the street and down a block and a half and the bus stop is also very close. The maid comes everyday with nice clean... more
