Things to Know

Nov 27, 2025Exceptional Vacation!
Villa del Palmar is my favorite place to stay in Cabo San Lucas. The variety of restaurants, activities (for entire family), the amenities, rooms, location (on the beach and near town), and all the staff truly make for an incredible vacation. The Activities Team (Alana, Albert, Chloe, Chuy, Francesca, Gaytan, Jeremy, Laura, Mauricio, and Michelle) create so many smiles with all the things they do and the shows they perform with tremendous talent. They truly enhance my visits. The Valet Team of Armando, Dagoberto, Efram, Eliel, and the rest, were extremely helpful. The concierges Araceli and Lili made my stay so easy. Poolside, Alberto, Antonio, and Paola, always ensured everything was perfect. And I can't review the resort with mentioning the food service teams, of which some members went above and beyond expectations. At the breakfast buffet there was Ana, Ester, Gabriela, and Luis who all sang happy birthday to my guest. At Neptune, Eddy, Manuel, and Sammuel were terrific. At the Taco Bar and Carbon grill (my favorite place to eat), Arturo, Pedro, and Salvadore made for fun dining experiences. And many thanks go to the wonderful people Iracena, Jonathan, Mildreth, Misael, and Rodrigo (thanks to all for the wine recommendations!) at the Dinner Buffet/ Theme Nights. I've stayed in other nice places in Cabo, but the hard-working and fun people at Villa del Palmar are what bring me back.

Nov 27, 2025Do not recommend staying here.
When I booked in July, the reviews were great — clearly things have gone extremely downhill in just a few months. I was told we could use the sister resort, which is not true. You cannot use their amenities or restaurants. I also knew the resort had been closed for construction in August, and I called multiple times to confirm everything was finished. I was assured it was. That was completely inaccurate. The entire place is still under construction. Our patio was completely torn up, and workers were right outside every day, so we couldn’t open the blinds or use the patio at all. Half the resort is blocked off, elevators are closed, and getting anywhere is a maze. Our view was gone because of construction walls. They start setting up at 6 AM, which is loud and woke my kids up daily. I always prepare ahead, especially for dining, and I asked about the restaurant that requires reservations. They told me to book when we arrived. When we tried, everything was already full and we were told you have to call months in advance. This leaves only three dining options for the all-inclusive, with long lines every day. Just the breakfast line took over a hour and then to get a omelette was another 40 minutes. Transportation from the airport took forever, the front desk was rude and extremely slow, and the WiFi doesn’t work at all. The TV is only in Spanish, so if you have young kids and want to watch a movie, it’s not an option. We also did not have hot water. Even though there are a lot of families, I wouldn’t call this kid-friendly — there isn’t much for kids to do. The ocean is only swimmable if you’re a very strong swimmer. The on-site store is extremely expensive (a yogurt was $8). To get a beach or pool chair, you have to go down at 7 AM to reserve one. Hours for the gym and pool are 8 AM, not 6 AM like the website states. Another note is that the spa is in a different hotel that you can take a trolly too but we weren’t comfortable leaving our kids to get a massage and driving to another hotel. I would say the staff is friendly and very helpful. I wish I knew all of this beforehand. As many reviews say, the website is very deceiving. I would not stay here again.

Great time with the family!
Lots of fun! We spent a good amount of time at the pool. Our server, Carlos, was very friendly and helpful. Chloe did a great job with kids activities. We played pool volleyball led by Tony and Jeremy who were super fun. The resort is very clean with polite staff. All in all a good experience!
