Exciting property enhancements are coming to many of our Villa Group Resorts—Villa del Palmar Cabo, Villa del Arco, Villa La Valencia, Villa del Palmar Flamingos, and Villa del Palmar Puerto Vallarta. Keep reading to learn about the upcoming changes, including lobby makeovers and new elevators, aimed at making your stay more enjoyable and memorable. Stay tuned to learn how these improvements will elevate your experience!
Villa del Palmar Cabo
Effective August, the main building housing the lobby and the Sports Bar, will undergo enhancements for approximately three months. Upon arrival, members and guests will be directed to either Building 1 or Building 3 for check-in, where temporary lobbies are already set up to ensure a smooth check-in process.
The Sports Bar is set to receive an exciting overhaul over the next ten weeks, featuring a new bar setup and upgraded TV installations. During this time, the Sports Bar will be closed.
Tortugas Terrace will also undergo enhancements starting around September, which will include the addition of a new stage and coverings for a more comfortable environment. The Tortugas Terrace enhancement will take approximately thirteen weeks to complete. During this transition, the Tortugas Terrace will be closed, and shows will take place at the Desert Lounge by the fire pit instead.
Finally, the pool areas will be resurfaced in stages, but rest assured, the pool will remain open. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to providing an even better experience at Villa del Palmar Cabo!
Villa del Arco
Alongside the ongoing elevator upgrades, a maintenance project for El Bucanero restaurant is scheduled to begin on August 12 and continue until September 30, 2024. During this period, El Bucanero’s dining services will be relocated to the terrace of El Patron, operating daily from 12 pm to 5 pm. Please be advised that the pool area around El Bucanero will be closed while these enhancements are occurring, and that all poolside lounge chairs and umbrellas located around the boat and on the sides will not be available during this time. Enhancements will take place daily from 9 am to 5 pm, with a medium-low noise level expected.
Villa La Valencia
We are thrilled to announce that Villa La Valencia will be resurfacing the pool deck from now until approximately the end of September 2024. During this time, the infinity pool will be closed for enhancements, and Corralle will also be unavailable. Instead, lunch will be served at Latitud 23.5 Steak House. This improvement is designed to enhance both the safety and aesthetics of our pool area, creating a more enjoyable experience for all members and guests.
Effective August 1, 2024, Latitud 23.5 Steak House will implement new hours of operation to better serve our valued members and guests. A la carte dinner service and bar will now be open from 6:00 pm to 10:30 pm, allowing you to enjoy an exquisite dining experience with a diverse selection of dishes and fine beverages.
Villa del Palmar Flamingos
The terrace at El Patron restaurant is currently being updated to elevate the overall dining experience. During this time, El Patron’s operating hours will remain the same (open daily for breakfast from 7 am to 11 am, lunch from 12 pm to 5 pm, and dinner from 6 pm to 10:30 pm). Once this enhancement is completed, the terrace will offer additional seating options, enabling members and guests to savor their meals amidst the beautiful surroundings. Furthermore, the interior of the restaurant has already undergone enhancements to create a more inviting atmosphere, featuring updated décor and an improved layout.
In addition to the restaurant makeover, we’re also installing new elevators at Villa del Palmar Flamingos that will be completed by the end of the year (2024) and will offer faster elevator service, reducing wait times and ensuring you can move around the resort with ease.
Villa del Palmar Puerto Vallarta
As of this week, we are excited to announce that Palmita Express is now officially open. Located on the street side of the resort, Palmita Express offers extended hours and a wide range of delicious options.
Palmita Express operates from 8 am to 9 pm, Monday through Sunday, providing you with more flexibility and convenience. Here, you can purchase water, soft drinks, alcohol, quick snacks (such as chips and cookies), and some pharmacy items. Whether you’re looking for a quick snack or travel essentials like sunscreen, the Palmita Express has you covered.
Additionally, the Deli will continue to operate as usual from 8 am to 4 pm, offering the same food menu as before. This ensures that you have ample dining options throughout the day.

Hi Donna,
Thank you for reading our blog and sending us your inquiry.
I am sharing your inquiry with our Hotel team so they can reach out and assist you (since you booked through hotels, not the Club for this specific reservation); the hotel will also be able to advise of an updated plan for renovations (since the dates for this are still not finalized yet). I will also copy the Club team on the request so they are aware. We will be reaching out to you this week to answer your questions and assist with this so please stay tuned. Thank you!

We would like to book several weeks in Loreto this upcoming January – February, 2025 and were wondering if Loreto is an All Inclusive or if we can do our own thing. If all inclusive, how much per day / week per person and what does it include?
We are long standing Villa Gold members and our home resort is Flamingos.
Hi Berndy,
Thank you for reaching out and for your continued support.
Villa del Palmar Loreto offers both all-inclusive and non-inclusive options, allowing you to choose what best suits your preferences. I have forwarded your inquiry to our Member Services team, and they will be in touch with you soon to provide the specific information you need and assist with your booking.
Best regards,
Club Marketing
