If you are planning a family reunion with up to 18 people, Las Palapas is a dream come true! Just completed in 2007, this home is located on a one acre parcel with 200 feet of spectacular ocean frontage in one of the most beautiful coves in Mexico. All 7 bedrooms have baths and tremendous ocean and beach views. Impeccably decorated and comfortably furnished in an absolutely gorgeous setting. Maximum occupancy for meals and entertaining is 20.

There are tons of activities and our staff of four will make sure you have an incredible and memorable time. They will cook 3 meals a day and provide tasty appetizers and drinks. Labor included. Budget $35 per person per day extra for food, beverages, and alcohol. You won't have to lift a finger! The owners rent this home only 10 weeks per year. Please tip $100 USD per night including Sundays, or $700 per week.

Located in Marina Chacala, the cove is very calm for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and boating. You can easily rent a panga (30 foot fiberglass fishing boat with twin outboards ) for half day fishing, whale watching or surfing trips. They can pick you up just down the beach from the house. We now include a candlelit beach dinner once per week for up to 20 people. Please vist LasPalapas dot tv

We could not have asked for anything better!

Wow, what a week! The physical space was perfect for our family of 17 with bedrooms and bathrooms for each group, kitchen facilities and lounging areas galore. The pool is warm, the hot tub is perfect for the kids, their ocean is inviting and serene. But the people...we chose the full service option and were overwhelmed with kindness, caring and service. The food was amazing and endless. This is certainly a listing and location where you can trust that the real product is even better than as advertised! We look forward to when we can return!

Magical

We had dreamed about taking our family (Children, Grandchildren and great grandma - 4 generations) on a vacation for many years, but it always seemed out of reach and the logistics of how and where seemed a bit daunting.Then we found Las Palapas. I had high expectations going there, but had no idea that it would be so magical.The team that looked after us was amazing. Every detail was attended to, and they were so very kind and thoughtful. Meals were spectacular and beautifully served. Dietary restrictions (severe nut allergy) was professionally managed and never even a slight concern. The food was 5 star and some of the best meals I have had while traveling in Mexico. The beach was so fun for the young families to explore and the pool was warm and comfortable, even for the baby. The accommodations are well thought out and there is space for everyone to be together when you want to, or quiet time when you just want to rest.We can't wait to go back in the future!Thanks again, Las Palapas team. You really are what makes the whole adventure unforgettable.

Absolutely Beautiful for family gathering

We spent an amazing week celebrating my mom’s 85th birthday. 17 people in our group from age 1 to age 85. This is a beautiful, private location in a gated community. The ocean access allows for exploring tide pools, boogie boards, stand up boards, swimming and kayaking. The pool and hot tub were great, too. Staff was very attentive, friendly and made delicious meals. Our group had a wide variety of food requests and they worked with us through all the allergies and preferences. The house was clean and provided us everything we needed. We would love to come back in the years to come.

This is our third trip to Las Palapas. Our whole family, kids and grandkids plus friends enjoyed a week of paradise. The kids would be in the pool or swimming in the waves at the beach. We had delicious meals and relaxing sunset cocktails. The staff are the best! Thank you again for a very memorable lovely family vacation!

Paradise!

We had a marvelous stay at Las Palapas. It is a beautiful property in a spectacular location. There is a small, private beach right next to the property and a safe area for snorkeling right in front of the house. We were there for our 50th wedding anniversary with our whole family of 13, including 5 children. This fabulous place was perfect for all ages. The kayaks, paddle boards, snorkeling equipment were fabulous to have and so easy to use. There are tennis courts and a pickle ball court nearby. Walking from the house in the Chacala Marina area is beautiful. The staff was exceptional -- lovely people and superb cooks. It was the most relaxing vacation we've ever had and we are so grateful to Bert for having created this marvelous place.

Beautiful beachfront vacation

Las Palapas was an amazing home with helpful kind staff. Photos of the property looked great, but it is even better in person. Wonderful private spaces for sleeping and great large places to gather and to eat together. We had dinner in town one evening, but all other meals were prepared by Sandra and the rest of the staff--food was always delicious--better than eating out. The staff kept the house spotless. Nidia, the house manager was always ready to help and answer any questions. We did two boat trips with Juan, seeing humpback whales one day (amazing!!) and snorkeling another day which was also great. Transportation to/from the airport, arranged through Juan was easy. Chacala is at least 1 1/2 hours from Puerto Vallarta airport. It is a tiny town, so no night life or shopping--however, Las Palapas has all you need. The food, house and property, beach, swimming pool and hot tub were all great. Everyone in our group had wonderful time. Amazing indoor/outdoor living. As long as you don't need the hustle and bustle of town, you will love this place!

Excellent!!! One of the best trips we have been on

Beautiful place to stay, great and private property and amenities. Reliable service. Good was amazing, receptive to discussion. Just make sure to figure out exact check in - no way to leave bags at property early and there is a 1h time difference between airport and location, so when I organized to come a bit earlier (which they were flexible with!) I was an hour early on my estimate. Drivers were nice enough to stick around with out bags

The Most Relaxing Vacation ... Ever

Las Palapas is an oasis and perfect setting for a relaxing vacation with family and dear friends. We were 11 in total, including a 2-year-old. Adult ages ranged from 35 to 73. Having the main house and 2 casitas, each with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, gave us the space to spread out if we needed private time, and community spaces to relax and party. The food was exceptional, and included breakfast, lunch, happy hour with drinks and appetizers, and dinner. Having the cleaning services every day, also made it more like a spa. Juan was available the entire time to drive us around, including to Sayulita and the airport, as well as taking us on his boat for snorkeling. All agreed that Las Palapas will be our go-to place in Mexico!

Meals and appetizers were awesome. They even made sushi with the fish the boys caught that day! The home was clean. The pool is wonderful. Everyone enjoyed the beach even finding some hermit crabs.
