Everything was beautiful, we booked our reservations for dinner before arriving and it went smoothly. As always the staff is friendly, welcoming, hard working and super helpful. We've been here quite a few times in the past few years since our first stay for our honeymoon. Highly recommend this resort.

The pools where nice the staff were so so the liquor was terrible and watered down the staff always try to get you somewhere into spending slot Of money for literally everything they charge for they told us we had all inclusive up until we arrived there they said it wasn’t all inclusive and had to end up spending money for everything when we made sure to get a all inclusive resort, and they know now you have no other choice After traveling there and taking multiple layover flights to get there and sleeping at random airports to get to that resort and then being told that our stay wasn’t all inclusive and we have no other choice but to end up staying there. Other then that the place was ok but not really much to do there at that resort !

Adrian and Abel were two of our favorite bartenders, our entire experience wouldn't have been the same without them! I will definitely be returning thanks to my experience with them!

First thing you should know is that this resort is a time share, a detail I only discovered during check-in after booking through Travelocity.com. I advise against engaging in the time share option, even if tempted by a deal. While the lobby was lackluster compared to other resorts I've visited, the junior suite was acceptable, albeit lacking a microwave. Opting for an all-inclusive package is essential. The dining experience was abysmal, requiring reservations for every restaurant except the God-awful buffet. Breakfast was passable but limited. Staff were generally pleasant, except regarding time share matters. Room service operating 24/7 was a positive, but overall quality of food was lacking, including desserts. I unequivocally would not return. Additionally, the resort's location offered little in terms of nearby activities, situated in a somewhat unsafe-looking city area with constant traffic and sirens. Unlike most resorts, there was a lack of entertainment options, and restaurant were not all open at the same time, so you couldn't even try all of them. The necessity to sign receipts for all-inclusive services defied logic. If you have a choice do not choose Villa Del Palmar.

Property is in excellent conditions. Two things to be aware of - this site has 2 different options one is an ALL inclusive package, the other is ROOM only!!! Please make sure to pick the one that fits the best For you and don’t rush choosing the right option for you & family. I went on a birthday trip and I accidentally booked the only that only the room, after trying to communicate with the hotel staff a few times found out the day before arriving to Cancun that the package I chose wasn’t all inclusive- once at the facility they offered me the all inclusive for $900 more…which we refused. Instead we bought tours with food included. Another thing is, if you would like everything walking distance or with public transportation nearby DON’T do the Punta Sam area. Is nice for relaxing if you’re doing the all inclusive and not planning to do any tours, this is an excellent option for you. Also the ferry to Isla Mujeres is right next to the hotel which was a plus. Not bad for being our first time in the area but would’ve done another area with more transportation options and/or walking distance places. Hoping my review helps!

Hotel location and property is very nice. I usually add all the point while taking decision on the stuff. Here are points consider before selecting this. 1- all inclusive is not good, if you are on all inclusive the average delay is 45 min which they asked but it can go up to 2 hours 2- all inclusive you can order 2 dishes per person 3- location is far from downtown and hotel zone 4- very expensive to use there service 50usd per person 5- enforce tip system for everything. Where as i stayed in Riu they don’t even ask 6- i asked for blanket and they never give me. 7- try to sell their new property. 8- property is congested too. Not like others where you can enjoy. 9- even hotel pick up and drop is 50usd Positive point: nice but congested property, food is really good. Negative Points: service, staff is not polite, all-inclusive is trap.
