Villa del Palmar at The Islands of Loreto

Beautiful resort and food I’d fabulous. Excellent service especially at the pools, Gabriella took care of us so well. Spa is beautiful and Alma gave amazing massage and mani pedi. Highly recommend.

The staff at VDP is unmatched. We were treated like family by all. Highlights are the Elite Staff - Enrique, Lupita, Diana, Jesse - thank you for all of your hard work making sure we were comfortable and making my birthday so special this year. The bell boys - Geo and Adolfo always treated us like family and we were so sad to say goodbye to them at the end of our trip. Restaurant and bar staff - Alex, Joshi, Guadalupe (sommelier), Omar and Emmanuel at Danzante, all of the hostesses and so many more - thank you all for making our dining experiences sublime. To all of the staff with the golf course and club house - thank you for always keeping my dad busy and having fun - you always treat him like family every time he comes. To the baristas at the cafe next to the spa - you are the sweetest ladies ever - thank you for making my mom her vanilla latte every day and making her feel special. To the spa staff - thank you for making my birthday so relaxing - the swedish massage, facial, mani & pedi were all incredible. I can't wait to go back to my second home soon. Hasta luego, mi familia!

We were very pleased with our stay at Villa Del Palmar at Loreto. The resort is well-kept and we felt constantly pampered by resort concierge, wait staff, and housekeeping. Although the on-site restaurants were a bit confusing (we were told we didn't need reservations anywhere but Casa Club yet had to wait 30 minutes to eat at Casa Mía when the hotel was only about 30% full) our dining experience overall was a 10/10. The buffet at the Market always had great variety and was convenient, while the dishes at Casa Club and Casa Mía were exquisite. We stayed in a one bedroom suite with a pull-out couch and were able to get a rollaway bed in the room (they said these can be requested subject to availability), and we were very comfortable as a group of four in the room. Turn-down service was always prompt and thorough. We were a little hesitant that this wasn't an adults-only resort, but we were rarely bothered by noise and also commented that the resort would be great for both families and adults (although it's possible it's not as quiet at busier times of year). We had intended to do some excursions while here, and didn't end up needing to because of the plethora of activities/amenities available in the all-inclusive package (paddleboarding/kayaking, ping pong, corn hole, water aerobics, a gym, a hiking trail, etc). We went to the town center one day and really enjoyed browsing the shops and restaurants, but otherwise didn't feel the need to leave the resort much. If you do choose to leave, Wild Loreto (which partners with the resort) provides convenient transportation to the town center and airport (and possibly other local spots) at affordable prices at select times of day. If you are looking for a self-contained vacation, this is the resort for you! We wanted to give some special shout-outs to specific resort staff who made our stay. First-- Dylan, Victor, and David at the beach bar! They provided great service and were very friendly at every turn. Then, Ronnie at the Danzante Discoteca was an incredibly enthusiastic DJ even when we were the only patrons. Finally, Jorge and the rest of the activities crew did a great job with margarita making and water aerobics. There are probably more we didn't mention by name, including the housekeeping staff, who provided really great service as well. Thanks to everyone at Villa del Palmar!

The staff here are so great! From the time you arrive the porters are great: Giovanni with his perfect English was soooo helpful. Poolside Gabriela met our every need and anticipated them too!!! At the spa Elena gave me the best massage ever and Lea did the same for my friend. Great experience!!!! Today when we went in the spa for a soak the staff were patient and very helpful.

manuel was absolutely amazing and the best server! he gave such good tips and recommendations on the food and he made the entire experience so much better
