The room was amazing at Palafitos Over the Water Bungalows! A little pricey, wish it was less m, but we were celebrating our 30th year anniversary and wanted to make sure it was top notch and we definitely received top notch service and we definitely had that and more! The room was immaculate! Staff were extremely friendly and attentive! The yoga and stretching were peaceful and timely! Food was a la carte which helped in not overeating! Portion sizes and ingredients were enough to satiate! Lomas hospitality transport from Cancun airport was amazing and friendly but the driver for departure home was terrible! Not friendly, no hello! No discussion it was like night and day from the person who initially picked us up. Thankfully, I could look pass the nonchalant attitude of the driver because I couldnā€™t let his attitude wrinkle my outfit. The Catamaran experience was nice! Special shout out for excellent service at Palafitos Restaurant: Elisio. Israel, and Rusel very friendly and accommodating faces. The butlers at Palafitos were Liz, Karla, Aldo, Yasser, Fernanda and the bartender Francisco were all amazing. Alvaro our beach attendant and welcome helper were exceptional employees! They know how to make a vacation top notch. Thank you to everyone here and I truly appreciate Tristanā€™s and Maferā€™s workouts! Excellent staff!

This trip was for a romantic getaway for my girlfriends 50th birthday. It far exceeded any expectations we could have had. From the minute we got picked up by Alberto, who was an amazing recourse, we were taken care of and pampered. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming and truly made you feel like you were family. Our butler service was exceptional! Pilar/Yasser/Liz were available whenever we needed them. Big or small every request was taken care of! The food was 5star and incredible. We ate and drank too much, but loved every minute of it. Our service staff at the restaurant, Ulysses, Christian, Patricia with more were outstanding! Our massage at the spa was incredible with Ange and Blaee. This place is heaven. We had the trip of a lifetime!
