The best experience! From the highest-quality food to the beauty of the grounds to the genuine service, it doesn't get any better. We keep coming back and it only gets better. Everything is top-notch and done with care.

Phenomenal! The most beautiful and tranquil resort, with the warmest staff! This wellness retreat is 5+ star resort and a true standout. The food is incredibly good (I’m usually an omnivore but went vegetarian for the trip), the mocktails are so inspired, the classes are really good (v little “woo woo” and mainly really helpful), facilities perfect. But the most important part is undeniable the staff. They are so kind, open, generous with their attention (but never cloying) — it feel like family here. A special shout out to Luis, Rosita, Danny, Noe. Our nomadic Kassandra was so lovely and responsive to all our needs. And the instructors Aurora especially, and Angel and Roxy and Renee, were outstanding. We are actually planning our next trip now!

Everything and everyone is absolutely amazing! I truly feel at home and around family when I am at Palmaia! Sure, Palmaia is breathtaking, peaceful, and serine, however, it is the PEOPLE that make Palmaia so extremely special. They do truly make you feel special and welcome! Some of the most special people I know work here. I count it an absolute blessing, to be able to call you, FRIENDS! I cannot remember everyones name, but they know that I appreciate everyone of them! Shout out to: Oscar(nomad), Ocar(driver), all the drivers, Karen, Esteban, Jerica, Allison, Elizabeth, Blaz, Eduardo...especially all the staff at Su Casa in the morning. The Spa team(fantastic)... Te quiero y te extraño mucho ♥️ 🙏

This was our 2nd visit to Palmaia, the House of Aia, and it didn't disappoint. The staff, accommodations, and activities are all top-notch. No detail is left unattended, which allowed us to focus on what we were there for: rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation. Our Nomadic guide made sure our schedule was always up to date and communicated and the leaders of yoga, breathwork, & soundbath were fantastic. The spa was incredible! The 1:1 stretching with Angel is always life-changing. We can't wait to be back a third time!

We had an amazing stay at Palamia House of AïA. It’s a beautiful resort with a completely different approach to the typical all-inclusive experience. The food and drinks were exceptional easily some of the best we’ve had at an all-inclusive. As a non-vegan family, we decided to try the plant-based options, and this was the perfect place to do it. Everything was fresh, creative, and full of flavour. The staff truly made our stay special. Alison at Plantissa Coffee Shop was so kind and provided excellent service. Ismael and Blas in the restaurants were knowledgeable and happy to explain the menus and concepts. Danny by the pool was always attentive and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. Enrique and Alexis made some of the best cocktails we’ve ever had and encouraged us to try new drinks, which we loved. The beach and pools are beautiful, and there are so many activities to enjoy. We especially loved the morning yoga with Angel and breathwork sessions, which were a great way to start the day. The natural cenote was incredible, and the cold plunges were such a unique experience. We also appreciated the complimentary bikes, which made it easy to explore around Playa del Carmen, and the WhatsApp communication service, which made everything convenient throughout our stay. The resort was spotless, with immaculate facilities and attention to detail everywhere. Every member of staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. The service and amenities were well above what we’d expect from a five-star resort. What we loved most was that it had all the benefits of an all-inclusive but without the overcrowded, impersonal atmosphere that many resorts can have. Instead, it felt relaxed, refined, and thoughtfully designed. It isn’t about flashy luxury or designer labels; it’s a humble, understated place that focuses on genuine quality, outstanding hospitality, wellness, and unforgettable food and drink. We wouldn’t hesitate to return and would highly recommend Palamia House of AïA to anyone looking for a unique wholesome, all-inclusive experience.
