Loved our stay but both had diarrhea when we got back. Only ate and drank at the resort except for SW airlines drinks when we left.
If may be awhile before I can get the husband to come back. I hope no one else got sick.

I wish you offered an all inclusive without the alcohol for less money. We come every year, usually to Puerto Vallarta, Flamingos but we do not drink alcohol.
Hi Pamela,
Thank you for commenting and your suggestion regarding an all-inclusive non-alcoholic meal plan. There have been tests done with a non-alcoholic meal plan, but with very little success. We will keep your suggestion in mind for the future in case more members desire this option.
Best Regards,

We celebrated my husband’s birthday last week at Villa del Palmar/Cabo Such a wonderful time, almost like a second honeymoon! Our room was comfortable and service was impeccable. If you haven’t previously ordered VDP’s Signature Service, I would encourage members to request this for your next trip, so worth it!
Trying to decide when to return next year, it won’t be soon enough.
Hi Victoria,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed celebrating your husband’s birthday at Villa del Palmar Cabo and look forward to welcoming you both back soon!

Do you have a price list for the spa at Villa del Palmar? I looked online but cannot find it anywhere. & do you have any of the restaurant menus online? I would like to get an idea of the food prices at the resort.
Thanks in advance.

In mid May we stayed a week at Villa Del Palmar and a week at Villa Del Arco. Everything was great. I have to give a big shout out to our housekeeper Carmalita at Del Arco. She was so cheerful and thorough. She sang softly while cleaning our unit. It was the first time in several years that we actually received all of our replacement towels and wash cloths at the time of cleaning. OLE to Carmalita!!!
