The staff was very attentive and friendly. The food was delicious and you can have all the food and drink that you would like 24 hours a day. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. We were pampered and relaxed.

We loved our stay at Palafitos! The bungalows are so amazing that we spent most of our time on the deck overlooking the water or laying out on our own private deck with steps down to the ocean to cool off. The water is shallow and easy to walk around. We would often walk through the ocean to get to the beach instead of using the boardwalk. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The thing that surprised us the most was the restaurant at Palafitos. I can't emphasize how amazing the food was there! A few nights a week there are planned 5-6 course meals, and the everyday menu is really impressive. It was a fun culinary adventure (but they have plenty of comfort food options, if that's what you're looking for)! We highly recommend this experience and plan to return as soon as we can!

We loved everything about the property. From the moment we arrived, the bellman was welcoming, check-in was smooth and quick. Our room was not quite ready so William, our butler escorted us to the restaurant where we dined on the water. There was a technical difficulty with our room so Alex moved our room to one of the best locations of the bungalows. We were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and birthdays so this was awesome. We were spoiled from beginning to end. William and Alex were the most gracious gentlemen going above and beyond. Our tequila and wine tasting experiences were so much fun and informative with the specialist. The restaurant staff was excellent as was every single meal we had. The beach bartenders and Peruvian restaurant staff were all amazing as well. I can’t say enough good things about our stay and we will definitely be back!

Our bungalow was spacious and had an amazing deck, plunge pool, outside shower, lower deck and stairs to the water. The views from every angle were amazing. The staff was courteous and attentive.

Everyone is very friendly. The resort is clean! The staff is very attentive!

The overwater bungalows are the perfect escape for post pandemic vacations. Private secluded beach with top notch service, good food and drinks straight to your private pool/ beach access

Words cannot describe the joy my husband and I experienced via our honeymoon. The level of customer service and professionalism was top notch. The food was amazing and the accommodations were romantic, spacious and alluring.

We went for our Honeymoon. This resort far exceeded my expectations of what quality service is all about. We had our personal Butler, who took care of ALL our needs, even drew up a hot Bubble bath (withJacuzzi) and candles, rose petals on our bed on Our last night With personalized note saying “Safe Travels, and Congratulations on your Honeymoon”. This Gourmet Resort pays close attention to how food is prepared, and honestly, the BEST creative food pairings I have ever had! I cannot say enough good things about this resort. The views, the layout, the rooms...all TOP quality and very well designed. Everyone was so kind. Their professionalism ,quality, attention to detail, and literally, taking care of our EVERY need is what I appreciate. They truly want you to experience the and appreciate each minute your are there as their guest. We will be back FOR SURE!

Solo me hospedé una noche para vivir la experiencia y la verdad te tratan como celebridad... el trato, las habitaciones parecen directamente salidas del paraiso... cuesta mucho dinero exagerado.. siento que solo es para gente como futbolistas y famosos... es hotel de lujo y para luna de miel está excelentemente bien

El lugar es fantástico y las instalaciones son excepcionales, la calidad de la comida es muy buena con un servicio muy completo y amable.
