We loved Golden Palms! The staff is so friendly! The food is amazing.mThe rooms are nice and big. Bed is very comfortable. The pool is huge. We liked the quietness of the resort. Edwin and Federico were amazing at the pool side bar. Any activity you would like to do they will have it to you quickly. We did jet skis and they were there within minutes. Playa Hermosa is a 5 min drive. We did choose to go eat there a couple of nights. We would definitely stay here again !

Price does not justify the room. The room was dated and was slightly damp due to the rainy season. The television only worked one day. Thank goodness they had no availability for the last two days of my stay and I was able to go to another hotel.

A resort with potential and friendly staff

Rooms were very clean. Resort could be better with some updates to the property. It has some real potential. The staff, service, cleanliness and food were good. It was a quiet refuge but not near many other things.

Golden palms is absolutely gorgeous. The staff is incredible - friendly, helpful and they go out of their way to make you comfortable and to keep the facilities clean. The breakfast has freshly made eggs, French toast, black beans and rice, plantains, potatoes, cereal and amazing fruit. I recommend getting an iced coffee, which is included with breakfast. We loved the pool and had plenty of smoothies while swimming e with the kids and relaxing. Watermelon, strawberry or mango were all amazing. There are hammocks where you can lay and see the howler monkey families pass through in the morning or afternoon. We had dinner on the property and I highly recommend the grilled shrimp, which was part of my Caesar salad. All the food was delicious. The property is beautiful manicured and has beautiful birds and butterflies. I The staff also helped us to arrange a snorkel and boating outing, which was fantastic. We saw string raid, eels, bright fish and a puffer fish. We loved it here!
