We travelled from England and it took 3 flights to get there and frankly it was not worth it. It was December and the wind howled the entire time making it too cold to sunbathe and there was not much else to do unless you were an expert windsurfer or kitesurfer. We had come to fish for marlin but the... More

This resort is very very pretty. Nice, clean rooms. The ocean is absolutely beautiful and very entertaining to wash the many kite boarders. This is located in a very small town about an hour north of the airport. We went over Christmas and their were very few people staying in the resort, but we still had a great time non... More

We're just getting ready to go back to Van Wormer Resort so I googled it to see what enhancements they made to the property since we were there 3 yrs ago. The ratings scared me for a second, just as fast I remembered my brother said it is highly thougt of in that area and my sister just told me...... More

The hotel was nice, beautiful pool, beach views, etc. Internet only available in restaurant and common areas. We loved the fancy restaurant, great guacamole and margaritas! The other restaurant had good breakfast options that weren't too pricey. The rooms were okay - beds not so great, but updated bathrooms and clean. The pool was too cold to swim in (January)... More

Had a wonderful time. From the room to the food to the fresh Civichi when we shared our catch of the day. What a wonderful time we had! More

The beach is NEVER crowded. The hotel rooms are ok, the food quite good and the pools, etc. good. This hotel is locally owned by Mexicans and is worth... More

This place is about an hour north of San Jose del Cabo...and about and hour and 1/2 from Cabo San Lucus. It is primarily a resort for sports fishing, but we happened on the place a few years ago while driving and returned for a 3 day stay. It's located on a quiet bay with beaches that stretch for miles... More

Still one of the better places to stay but REALLY showing it's age. Shower didn't work. AC wouldn't shut off. What would it take to have someone pick up the litter around the place, hire a waiter/tress for the pool or replace the chairs/umbrellas? Don't get me wrong. I have been going there for lots of years. Paying five star... More

I have stayed at hotel palmas de Cortez about 10 times. Although it's true that the hotel is not 5 stars. I usually go there for the fishing which has always been decent. can't believe all these people complaining. Guys this is raw fishing, so stop being such pusses. Catching that giant marlin makes up for all the shortcomings. More
