This was my third visit to Las Palapas and once again I was impressed with the friendliness of the wonderful staff, the beauty of the grounds and the fabulous beach. I look forward to my next visit and want to thank you all for a wonderful vacation."
"We spent a delightful honeymoon at "Las Palapas" this last April, and we couldn't have got more lucky: exquisite beach, beautiful surroundings, friendly staff, first-class service, delicious food, and our romantic and truly homey cabaña #27... all I can say is that we're looking forward to visit "Las Palapas" again and again and again). Saludos from rainy Holland, where I'm still trying to match those Lumumbas that Luis prepares ... yummy!"
"Hola todos en Las Palapas, It is almost a year ago that we visited this wonderful hotel at our honeymoon-trip. Still I can feel the perfect atmosphere which I experienced in this heavenly place. I can feel the Caribbean winds en smell the beautiful ocean when I close my eyes. We look back at a wonderful honeymoon and we would like to thank you again for the hospitality you gave us. You all showed us how beautiful Mexico and its people can be and we really fell in love with Mexico and it's wonderful, relaxed people. We will come back some time!!!"
"I travelled a lot in my life, but I never saw such a beautiful and elegant place like that till now. I spent only one night cause I discovered it two days before leaving Mexico. One thing is sure: I want to come back very soon cause everything is great and relaxing there, a true heaven. Congratulations to all the staff."
"A great place to relax and unwind with very helpful and friendly staff."

"Hi there, thank you very much for the very relaxing fortnight we could spent at the Las Palapas in May/June 2005. Everything was so fine, starting from the very clean and nicely decorated rooms, the lovely palapas, the superb garden and beach, the fine food (even if it was not very spicy ;-)) and ending up with the excellent service of all of your staff. We really enjoyed our stay and are very sorry that holidays like this one must end too soon."
"We have just come home from our 10 day stay at Las Palapas. This place is just as it is advertised "simply paradise". The grounds are beautiful and the staff is great. We cannot wait until we are able to return next year. Thanks for a great vacation."
"We had the most perfect stay in Las Palapas. Wish we could get married there. The hotel and the whole team are truly magnificent ... I wonder if we will ever experience anything like that ever again especially the amazing beach and Ubaldo's friendly bar service. If you're planning to go there and don't speak Spanish (not that you need to since all the staff are multi-lingual!!) just learn these very useful words: Dos Electric Lemonades por favor Ubaldo!"
