The property is beautiful, quiet, classy, and very private. It’s felt a bit isolated for me personally but if you are looking for pure relaxation and no excitement or entertainment it’s the perfect place to vacation. I will definitely be back, however it will be based on my mood and what I’m looking for in a vacation.

We had a wonderful trip to the One and Only Palmilla. This was our fourth time there, and it is our favorite place in Cabo. It is the staff that make this place so special. Everyone says hello and look genuinely happy to be there! They make you feel so welcome. Ramiro, Fabiola, and Solomon in the Aqua restaurant took great care of us, and Cesar and Guillermo were great hosts! We loved the fabulous breakfasts, Aqua, the fitness center, juice bar, and spa. We will for sure be back to visit!
