Villa del Palmar at The Islands of Loreto

I’m not sure where to begin, our visit was great! The weather happened to be a little warmer than expected which was a bonus. The staff were incredible throughout the resort. The food was great and the service was top notch. Breakfast and dinner at Casa Mia was a favorite and our server Eduardo (dinner) always made the evening more special with his warm and engaging smile. The golf course is one of the best I’ve seen and played. Difficult, but fair for a low handicap golfer. The golf staff was super friendly and had helpful tips for the course especially Ritchie, Luis, and Manuel. At the Casa Club- Jesus’s margaritas were my wife’s favorite and Dario’s Cadillac Margarita was exceptional!! The steak and chicken tacos for lunch were fantastic! The shrimp and steak kabobs at the beach bar are definitely worth having. We almost decided to not have them which would have been sad! The ambiance, food, and service at Danzante was we’ll worth it as well! Hiking and Kayaking was great with amazing views! Overall we couldn’t have had a more enjoyable time! Already looking at booking our next trip!

They go over the top to make sure you feel special. It’s a small community- safe- as you check in as you enter the road onto the property. The golf course is AMAZING. Great hiking, amenities and beautiful beach, kayaking etc. but you are paying for it. 😉

We stayed at Villa Del Palmar Loreto during Thanksgiving 2024. We had a great and relaxing getaway and stayed in a one-bedroom suite which was nice. The weather was perfect and there was very little wind. The below people provided exceptional service to make our stay over the top. Casa Mia - Alonso, Rodolfo, Sergio, Cecil, Manuel "the godfather" for breakfast Pool - Fidel, Roberto, Edson Beach - Marcelo, Benito, Victor Market - Rafael, Pilar, Mariah, Jorge, Dulce, Abraham Casa Club - Eli, Daniel The only downside was the sea lice/jellyfish in the ocean, the very firm pillows, and the pre-cooked food at breakfast although still excellent, didn't seem as good as prior trips. Mariah still made great omelettes and Pilar made great quesadillas. There was also some construction going on in the buildings, but it wasn't really a big deal. The goods far outweighed the bads and we look forward to returning to join our Loreto family in the future.

All of the personnel (grounds- gardeners- maintenance- check in staff-service-valet- maids and cleaning workers- waiters) are super and have become like family, Manuel and Santiago are family now. We can’t wait to eat just to have them serve and laugh with us 👍

Manuel Lopez provided excellent service! Such a solid experience! He was super attentive. He’s so awesome! 10/10 dining experience. If you come to Casa Mia ask for him. Food was solid. I’d order the seafood pasta and flan. Travel tip: you can order buckets of beer.
