We picked this place because it looked cute with a boho vibe, and it totally delivered. The atmosphere was cozy and thoughtfully designed, and the staff was genuinely great — friendly, helpful, and welcoming from start to finish. It made the whole stay feel easy and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

The property is nice and well maintained. There is a pool and a beach area with chairs owned by the property for guests use. Both of these are nice. There is towel service for the pool and beach. This is not a normal resort that you might have stayed at in other parts of Mexico. The swim up bar is not really swim up; there are staff members circling to take beverage or food orders around the pool and if you go to the swim up bar, those same staff members will address your needs, despite a bartender being behind the bar. There is not a way to charge drinks to your room; you will need to pay for them on site, if not doing all inclusive. The breakfast had an array of options and was pretty good. The staff at the front desk and at the restaurant/pool speak limited English. This seemed to be mostly fine as the majority of patrons spoke Spanish, but this is something to consider if you do not. There were some miscommunications that I am sure were not helped by translation issues. Nevertheless, besides a language barrier, the staff were accommodating and tried to help resolve any issues, order taxis etc. The property is walking distance to town and other places down the beach that are great also.

Room spotless. Mini jacuzzi/pool was a must. Super location. If you want to see the stars in the sky, it is far away from the center of the village and its lights. But close to all the nice beach bars and lounges.

Very lovely staff, great housekeeping, delicious food. The only thing I'd improve is bike rental, bikes are very rusty. Also moldy chairs in dinning room - I understand there is moisture problem at the island so I didn't mind, but could choose different materials that are not as prone to get moldy. This was our 1st stay at Palapas, but we stayed at Paraiso (sister hotel right next to it) two times and would come back again to either of them. Overall absolutely great value for the price!

Awesome People Work Here

The staff at the restaurant is awesome. We enjoyed our breakfast there every mooring. We stay here because of these great people in the resturant. The only complaint is the process’ of check-in / out.. Could be quicker but very polite staff. Quick stroll to beach…
