Not everyone has the good fortune of living right on the beach, so instead of making the trek with the kids every weekend, just head for your home away from home at Villa del Palmar Cancun Luxury Beach Resort & Spa in Mexico. Cancun has never been more family-friendly than it is at this resort, removed from the Hotel Zone's rowdy parties. Fun activities and relaxing amenities are just a few reasons why families pick this elegant all inclusive resort.

Villa Del Palmar quiet place
If I hadn't specifically asked for a beach for long walks and nightly entertainment, then this would get 4 palms all around. I also so missed the
beach side buffets.....instead we had to order lunch every day that we were there. And deal with more than one server each time! Some people
would love this but we found it distracting. The menu did not change while we were there.
The room was quite nice. Our bed sooo comfortable. Towels were great.
Pools were great too.
Not many 30 to 40 year old fun people there so I would say to stay away if you like lots of fun & nightlife. Many more women than men also.
I think next visit we will go to hotel zone or back to the riviera maya.
This was a bit too far north of the hotel zone. carolvcv
Took a girls only trip for 4 nights at the Villa Del Palmar Cancun. The resort will be beautiful and already is quite impressive with the huge pool with fountains, multiple hot tubs and expansive pool side area. Since only first phase was completed (opened Dec 2010), there were only 2 restaurants open not incuding the beach grill; but that seemed to suit us fine. The beach area was beautiful, but water cloudy and filled with seaweed at the shoreline. I think since the hotel is newly opened and word isn't out yet, we were able to get lounge chairs on the beach without difficulty, though there seemed to be plenty. The staff were all very friendly and quick with service throughout our 4 night stay. There was only one occassion when pool side service was pretty slow. Not sure what that was about. There were plenty of adult activities available daily but we spent most of our time on the beach or lounging by the pool. There were very few activities for children which would make it difficult for families with young ones. Even my 16yo son would have been bored. When the resort is complete, they may offer more children's/teen activities. The room was gorgeous! The main downside was the continuous construction at the resort. We were hoping to awake in the mornings with our sliding doors open to hear the sounds of the ocean; instead we heard multiple loud construction noises beginning in the a.m. on through to at least 5pm. Saturday they only worked a half day and Sunday, luckily, they were off. That one quiet morning on our balcony was perfect. Wish we could have had more of that. This is why my overall rating was 4 palms instead of 5 since the construction will cease one day. I would recommend this resort to friends. Don't know that I'll return as I prefer smaller more intimate resorts. Once this second phase is complete, this resort is going to be huge and could be fun if you like the larger resort. All in all it made for a great winter time blues getaway.
Finding a taxi to the resort was a little difficult. No one knew what resort we were talking about. I think it's because it is so new. Construction was noisy but we didn't mind. We were part of the all inclusive. It was great. Both restaurants were great. Don't be in a hurry. It took forever to get our check to sign for our room. Everyone was very helpful and aware of our needs.

You can negotiate - we did not have time to do ourselves but did research and out of the guests we spoke with the lowest we heard was $45 for about 30 mins.
Sandollar2010
Its expensive... $40 for 15 minutes, $80 for 30 mins, etc....
brianandjess
There are not jet skies at the resort to rent. Due to the rocks they can't get there.
slick1532
They told us when we booked that Jet Skis were available, but when we got there they did not have them. They do have Kayaks but they were not allowing those to go out because the water was to ruff. They really do not offer many beach activities.

Hotel Description
Villa del Palmar Cancun Luxury Beach Resort & Spa in Mexico: Playa Mujeres and Full-Service Spa
Not everyone has the good fortune of living right on the beach, so instead of making the trek with the kids every weekend, just head for your home away from home at Villa del Palmar Cancun Luxury Beach Resort & Spa in Mexico. Cancun has never been more family-friendly than it is at this resort, removed from the Hotel Zone's rowdy parties. Fun activities and relaxing amenities are just a few reasons why families pick this elegant all inclusive resort.
A huge stretch of Playa Mujeres welcomes fearless youngsters ready for jumping waves and splashing up a storm while their parents grab cervezas and drag sun loungers right up to the water's edge. Two pools are the best way to cool down, especially with the awesome waterfall bridge. Swim up an appetite and sit down to dinner at one of the three restaurants; you can dine on yummy tenderloin at La Casona, hearty rigatoni at Davino's and fresh sushi on the terrace at Zama Restaurant. Practice your salsa steps to live music after dinner before stopping at Tiki Beach Bar for a nightcap.
Hanging out at the beach is popular at Villa del Palmar Cancun Luxury Beach Resort & Spa, and there are plenty of ways to enjoy the scenery. Have a kayak race with the kids, snorkel through the underwater kingdom or test your reflexes with windsurfing. Golfers have their pick of courses with more than 10 golf courses nearby, and relax-ationers soak up the soothing at the hotel's spa. Take a trip through the hydrotherapy circuit before letting the stress melt away on a massage table.
When it's time to call it a day, we think the suites at this resort are the perfect choice. The Two Bedroom Suite sleeps up to eight and features a fully equipped kitchen in case you want to whip up a midnight snack. The upscale perks, like a flat-screen TV with pay-per-view movies and balcony with an ocean view, make you feel right at home.
