Eight ladies spent a wonderful week at Dolphin Cove! The bedrooms were very spacious and the amenities were good. Concierges were helpful. Irma and Ophelia took good care of us with meals and Josephine kept the place spotless. Pool was fabulous, perfect temperature and cleaned twice weekly. We spent many hours enjoying it as Huatulco is very hot, day and night! The views were spectacular and it was very quiet-we couldn’t hear any traffic nor guests at the other villas. Just ocean waves and jungle sounds!

Beautiful Coastal Escape

I stayed here on a vacation with my extended family. The house and location were perfect, and everything you see in the postings photos probably doesn’t do it justice. The staff also went out of their way to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Special mentions are due to Margherita for her delicious meals.

We were fortunate enough to stay in two of the villas during our two-week stay; Dolphin Cove and Turtle Bay Villas. They were both incredible in their own way, but Turtle Bay was our favourite. Nothing beats the breathtaking view when you come down the stairs for the first time!The staff were all wonderful and so eager to help. The concierge was very quick to respond whenever we had questions or needed help arranging anything. We also opted for the weekly chef service, which was one of the best decisions we made - it freed up our time to relax, enjoy the pool, and spend more time together as a family. The chef was amazing; the food was delicious and a great mix of authentic Mexican cuisine and dishes more familiar to us as Canadians.The resort is perfectly located. It seemed like everything was only a 5–8 minute taxi ride away. Restaurants, beaches, and town were all very easy to get to.We would highly recommend Las Palmas for families or large groups looking for a private, luxury, all-inclusive feel without the crowds of a traditional resort.We can’t wait to come back.

Wow! What a View..

House was amazing with incredible views from everywhere. Everyone loved swimming and relaxing by the infinity pool. Margarita was fantastic and made some delish Mexican meals. Definitely recommend for a family get together. The only concern is that the entrance of house did not have a lock. It is in a nice gated community but I guess we are just being used to locking the front door. This did not interrupt our stay and would stay again for sure.

Paradise with a view

Stayed with a group of friends and loved having a great space to hang out together and the ability to go to our own suites and have lots of space and every comfort available. (Including A/C) The views cannot be beat and the ability to walk to two beaches from the property within 10 minutes is amazing. Fruit welcome basket was a wonderful touch. Wish there was less mosquitoes, but the concierge was very accommodating and brought extra bug spray + had the property treated the next day. We are already trying to figure out when we will be back!

Celebrated my husbands 50th!

Where do I begin The staff are absolutely amazing! From Margarita cooking and being so passionate about what she cooks makes the food more enjoyable. The concierge Luis, Oscar always asking if we need anything. Asking at all times being very attentive . Checking in on us at all times. Arranging our excursions, caking taxis for us, Calling for delivering runs. They went above& beyond. It’s paradise! The view says it all! I couldn’t have picked a better location and the staff to make my husbands 50th Magical. They are so accommodating in every way. Little details that go along way. I will highly recommend Las Palmas to all my friends/family or anybody who is thinking about checking this place out. I highly recommend you do so. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Las Palmas!

Huatulco's Best Location

If you like crowded resorts, cheap amenities, and a programmed stay planned by someone else, do not stay here. I had considered many locations in Huatulco before our stay and took time during our visit to check these out. Las Palmas is hands down the best location in the area. It offers amazing privacy, even from the other villa/casitas on campus, allowing you to feel as though you are the only family/group on the entire Pacific coast. The views are mesmerizing. We stayed at Dolphin Cove. Both of the villas have unbeatable views. The beach area is almost all to yourself most of the time and is really a perfect place to hang out, swim in perfect water, enjoy awesome snorkeling, and view the waves crashing into the rocky cliffs. The concierge service is great. Feel free to arrange you own adventures, but they can help as well. I highly recommend several meals with Margarita cooking. You will not regret this. She is awesome. Absolutely ideal setting. Thank you, Las Palmas!

Paradise

Every aspect of this property exceeded our expectations. If anything the photos on VRBO underrepresented the scale and beauty of the property. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived, the fridge was stocked as requested and supper was on the table. The staff is incredible; 24hr concierge/translators were very helpful, the cleaning staff literally scrubbed the entire place from top to bottom everyday, the pool was cleaned every morning, we accepted the cook service and highly recommend. Tide was our cook and my kids adopted her as their grandmother. Tide cooked hearty authentic Mexican dishes that we enjoyed. Violin beach is worth the effort, it’s located near the villa though there is quite the elevation change that could be difficult for some. We prefered violin beach vs La Entrega as the snorkeling was awesome and there were never more than 6 people. From the pool we saw dolphins, whales, and sting rays. Incredible. One note; We travel with small children, the handrail on the patio surrounding the pool is made out of wooden rails. The handrail is very sturdy but our two year old would have easily passed through the railing where there is a 15’ drop. We were obviously very careful with him and nothing happened but it is worth consideration if you have young children.

Amazing stay at Las Palmas

We loved our stay in House of the Rising Sun Villa at Las Palmas. The resort is in an absolutely gorgeous location overlooking both La Entrega and El Violin beaches. We loved walking to both for snorkeling and hanging at the beach. We had lunch almost every day at La Entrega. The villa was perfectly laid out for our group with a gorgeous common area for hanging out together and private terraces for some quiet time. We had Josefina make breakfast and dinner for us each day which was perfect during Covid times and I would recommend at any time. She is a wonderful cook! Angel and Omar were also really helpful setting up tours, arranging for taxis and really getting anything we needed! Highly recommend!

You set the tempo: make it as relaxed as you want.

Las Palmas, Huatulco is a haven! If you are looking for comfortable livable surroundings, beautiful views to the ocean, the green comfort of palm trees, the vibrancy of bougainvillea, and a great pool, then stay here. This is a small resort, standing on a headland about 10 minutes from town centre by taxi. It is quiet! It is calm! And all the attractions of Huatulco are still very close. For a beach holiday, I like a place that is well appointed but not fussy. I don't want to worry about a bit of sand or a wet bathing suit. Las Palmas meets that criteria. The casitas are well-designed, and thoughtfully equipped and homey. Good beds! And being on the headland, the breeze at night is wonderful. Staff: very friendly, eager to help and as attentive as you require. And most have been at the resort for a number of years. They know their jobs, and how to take care of their guests to make them feel right at home. That's how I feel at Las Palmas: right at home! Thanks to the owners, and staff for making Las Palmas such a welcoming place.

Wedding in paradise

My wife and I got married on nov 7 at las palmas. We actually rented the entire resort for the week as we had family coming in from all over the country. Words cannot describe how beautiful the views are from the three infinity pools located at each of the three villas. The staff was exceptional in every way. We had the wedding on site and couldn't have been more pleased.

Fabulous way to celebrate a "big" birthday!

I had dreamed about how I wanted to spend my 50th birthday for 5 years and the week we spent at Las Palmas in the Turtle Bay villa made that dream a reality. Everything was exactly how I pictured it, with an open floor plan, stunning views, wonderful service all around (Oscar and Talina along with the rest of the staff-the best)! We had the most amazing food prepared for us each morning and most dinners by Jennifer and Nico, such lovely ladies. There was so much to do, we rented ATVs, went snorkeling (so much to see so close to shore), rented scooters, and then we'd relax in the pool to watch the most incredible sunset we'd ever seen. We got to meet the owners of Las Palmas who made us feel like royalty, such down to earth nice people. I had one of the best massages ever, maybe that is due tot he setting as I was poolside! We travel quite a bit and I have to say that this was one of the best places we have visited. Everything about the resort was fantastic and we cannot wait to come back again and again.
