The resort is not close to many other hotels. It was nice to look outside and not have views obstructed by tons of high rise buildings! It was a very quiet location!
We stayed in a "Junior Suite." It had a large "main area", which was basically a mini living room with a queen size bed and a balcony overlooking the ocean. It also had a seperate bathroom and a seperate kitchen with fridge, microwave, stove, etc.
The fridge is filled with stuff, and you get charged for those items you eat/drink. The best news is there is a grocery store right on the resort, just 30 feet from the resorts main entrance. Beers, sodas, water, and everything else were about half the cost in the grocery store. The bottled water especially came in handy...bring them down to the pool rather than spend $5 for a bottle at the pool bar.
Attached to the grocery store, there is also an internet cafe where you can log onto the computer for a very good price. There is also a deli in the internet cafe, with great club sandwiches if you just want a quick, cheap lunch.
The resort itself is beautiful. The pool areas were nice, lots of seating, and even a little water slide at one of the pools. The oceanviews were absolutely stunning.
There are a few beach merchants along the Villa Del Palmar beachfront. The resort has the beach chairs behind a roped off area and the merchants are not allowed to come inside the roped area. They still stand on the other side though, and try to get your attention.
When walking to the left of the resort, you will see no hotels, just a long stretch of deserted beach. To the right, you will see where the beach starts to get crowded. There are more hotels/beachfront restaurants this way. It is a bit of a walk, but its enjoyable. If you do not want to walk, there is a water taxi that comes right up on the beach, and for $2 a person, it will take you to the "happening" part of the beach.
The resort was wonderful, and I would highly recommend the Villa Del Palmar to anyone visiting Cabo!
