Tourist Corridor Beach Vacations

You get a beautiful view from almost all locations. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. I didn't eat at all of the restaurants but the pizza at Il Forno was good. As were the drinks! I would have liked to see a few Mexican options on the menu, but, I could have ventured around the property to a different restaurant if it was really an issue. It was low season, but they seemed fully staffed and everything was open. The only comment I have is that I waited over an hour for help with my luggage on check out, despite making several calls. I had given myself plenty of time for the airport, but that could have been an issue for someone on a tighter schedule.

The reception personnel was not very helpful. He kept looking at his watch, he didn't give us enough information on how to move about the property. Though, he made it clear that Saturday (the day we checked in) is always busy as many guests are checking out. We arrived before 4 pm, there was no portable water to drink in the room (other than the ones in mini bar ) which are chargeable. We were on "all inclusive package" but still will get charge if we consume drinks from the fridge. No snacks too, after a long flight and travel to the resort, they offered nothing. We looked around for pool bars hoping we can get something to drink or eat, the brochure said, that they closed at 5pm (the sushi pool bar) but it was already closed at 4.15pm. Non of the ground staff were helpful. One guest told us to go to El Patio pool bar, wish the reception had told us ahead of time. It was 15 minutes before kitchen closes when we arrived. Finally had our drinks and some food, but we were rushed to place the order. This is not a 5 star resort. The toilet tank whistles everytime we flushed it. The doors don't close properly as they must have expanded due to the humidity. The concierge need to know more about this facility too, they seem so uninformed and uninterested. But, I must say, it's a very enchanting and charming place to stay. Beautiful grounds and views all around.

Beautiful resort, very good food, and excellent service. The staff was attentive and professional, and I genuinely enjoyed the overall experience. Unfortunately, food & beverages are extremely overpriced, even by luxury-resort standards. I completely understand and expect to pay a premium at a property like One&Only Palmilla, but the pricing here is difficult to justify. The food was good, but at these prices I would expect something truly exceptional and memorable. That simply wasn’t the case. A wonderful setting with great service and good food, but when you consider what you’re paying, the value just isn’t there

Everything was great except upon arrival the staff was not very helpful. We extended our vacation from another location and only needed one night stay. We arrived early and bc of the rain none of the bars were open for drinks or snacks. When we asked to be directed no one seemed to know where anything was at. Also, we waited till 3pm for our room but when we went to ask if my room was ready, they said it had been ready since 12pm. I never received a phone call to let me know if was ready like the said they would. Once we got our Room it was ok.
