Learn more about Yelapa

Accessible only by boat, this car-free village feels like stepping into a simpler time. Playa Yelapa's golden crescent offers perfect hammock territory between swims in the Bay of Banderas. Hike to the cascading Yelapa Waterfalls where locals sell homemade pie along the trail – the coconut version has a cult following. Kayak to hidden coves or snorkel the clear waters where tropical fish dart between your legs. When the day's adventures wind down, beachfront palapa restaurants serve just-caught fish by candlelight. For a day trip, boat captains can whisk you to Majahuitas Beach or the more developed Las Caletas Beach. Bring cash – ATMs haven't yet invaded this delightful technological backwater.

"Great location! Right on the beach with a beautiful oceanside view. Food was excellent and service in most restaurants was superb. One restaurant stopped checking on us after they delivered our food, but that was only once and the food was so good we still went back to that restaurant. Highly recommend!"

Villa del Palmar Beach Resort and Spa, Puerto Vallarta

Villa del Palmar Beach Resort and Spa, Puerto Vallarta

8/10 Good
"First, the pros: The room was incredibly comfortable for a mid-tier hotel. Incredibly comfortable bed, pillows, water pressure, and room size. Housekeeping was stellar and timely, and the A/C did the job just right. Also, excellent gym with equipment that was cared for and well beyond what you normally find in a hotel. Pool was warm and the bar had a great selection of premium options. Staff was also very friendly, even under the pressure they were working under. Now, the cons. Service is terribly slow everywhere, from the front desk, to the ice cream stand, the bars, the pool service, etc. Also, the pools are both incredibly dirty. Partly due to the guests, yes, but the staff need to be better about cleaning up plates, good, and trash. The pool area was just filthy to the point where it was downright gross. The kids pool was even worse, frankly disgusting to even walk through the area barefoot. The guests also seemed like budget-oriented large families and the place was packed with yelling, misbehaving children and aloof parents. You definitely get what you pay for in that sense."

"Great staff, good food, lovely beach. Only one issue which is really my preference, not a problem… VERY LOUD!! Music blasting at the pool all day, people talking into microphones for exercise classes and games. you can’t get away from the noise if you want to relax at the pool. If you like that kind of activity, then it’ll be great. I just wanted quiet and ended up wearing noise cancelling earplugs the entire week and could still FEEL the music because it is that loud."
