Delicious Breakfast Buffet

“Every morning, I was delighted by the fantastic breakfast buffet at Las Palapas. With a wide range of fresh fruits, various hot dishes, and a chef ready to prepare eggs just the way I liked them, my mornings were always a treat. The open-air dining area added to the experience, making each breakfast feel special and refreshing.” view full review

Charming Rustic Bungalows

“I loved the unique charm of the rustic bungalows at Las Palapas, complete with thatched roofs and hammocks on the porches. My beachfront bungalow offered a fine view and the ocean breeze kept the atmosphere comfortable. Each room felt like a cozy sanctuary surrounded by nature, perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach.” view full review

Functional Shower Experience

“The bathroom in my bungalow was simple yet functional, featuring a large tiled shower that added to my overall comfort. It was spacious enough to move around, and with hot water available most of the time, it was refreshing after a long day at the beach. Though there was some room for improvement in cleanliness, my overall shower experience was very satisfying.” view full review

Relaxing Beach Vibes

“The beach area at Las Palapas was nothing short of paradise! The soft white sand and clear waters made it a pleasure to spend my days lounging on a beach chair under a palapa. I relished the beach bar's drinks and the option to grab a bite to eat while enjoying the beautiful scenery. The serene atmosphere provided a perfect backdrop for relaxation and unwinding.” view full review
