We had a wonderful stay! The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfy. Everything was super clean and the decor was lovely! We will definitely be back. It was perfect for our family of 4 (sons 6 and 8). The hosts seem to have thought of everything from the beach supplies in the outdoor closet to the steamer, distilled water and drying rack in the master closet. We played games and took advantage of the lathe balcony and sun chair. Great spot - so convenient to get to the pool and beach :)

Perfect!

This was a perfect little casita for a small family. Well stocked with beach supplies and everything you would need to make a meal in the kitchen. Loved the little welcome snack pack and the views from the upstairs porch. Close to both pools and private.

Resort style living

We thoroughly enjoyed walking or driving down to the Beautiful beach . Golfing, swimming in the heated pool as well as the restaurant and bar area were a 2 minutes walk. The house was immaculate and comfortable.

Amazing beach stay

We absolutely loved the home and community. We came at a quiet time, and we had a great time enjoying the beach and amenities of Palmilla Resort. The home is precious and gives a great beachy-vibe. The house has all that you need. I loved that they provided plenty of beach/pool towels, beach chairs and toys to use, and had family games and books. We will definitely stay here again.

Great stay

My family and I had such an amazing time here. It was clean, close to everything, and the amenities were amazing. It was the perfect amount of space for a family of 5. I enjoyed spending some time reading on the balcony and we loved that there were games for us to play as a family. We ate that the Black Marlin restaurant and it was delicious. We went to the pool and had so much fun- we thought it was amazing that there was food at the pool. Everybody was nice. I just wish we knew there were designated umbrellas and chairs meant for Palmilla Resort visitors. We were not told and had some trouble putting our own equipment up.

The Casita was lovely and we enjoyed our stay. I rated the property a 4 star because the sofa has seen better days and needs to be replaced. I called Vacasa to report a problem with the dryer which would only run for 5 minutes before turning off. It is a smart system and caused interference with the Internet and streaming TV service. I was told someone would be contacting me but I never heard back.The beds were very comfortable and the linens were nice.We enjoyed the beach, the pool and swim up bar and the food options on site were fabulous.
