Me and my husband are wanting to take a family vacation to Cancun this year and this video just sold us on this resort. Loved this video, very detailed!!
Thank you so much, I hope that you have a wonderful time! It really was a great resort.
Great review, I have stayed here 5-6 times and it is always a great time. I love that you can catch the ferry to Isla Mujeres right there 5 min walk from the hotel.
Thank you - yes next time we need to actually catch the boat and check out Isla Mujeres! We didn't stay long enough to want to cut out from time at the resort.
Great job reviewing the resort, Thanks!!
Thanks for watching!
Great video we are going for our second visit in a couple of days, hour was the seaweed on the beach
Thank you for watching! Seaweed on the beach was nonexistent (I saw them cleaning it one morning.)
Cant wait till u post the grounds of garza blanca..
Working on it!
Kate, video is published! th-cam.com/video/NuTi6cgcRo4/w-d-xo.html
@@perfectpals we go in 18 days and ur video got the whole family so excited ty
We are going in April and I’m excited! I love that you can see the sunrise! Beautiful and something I love! I was wondering about any wildlife? What did you see for animals on the resort?
We didn't see much wildlife aside from the usual birds and one stray dog was hanging around. But there were some fish (when the water was clear, on calm weather days) that were really really cool and tropical. I couldn't tell you what those were though, but go explore the pier and you might see something cool!
Did you like it?
@@yaizagonzalez6014 Yes we had a great time!
Hi thank you for the video we’re going on July and this is we’re going to stay
This is our 3rd time in Cancun and this is our first time in this hotel. So for the restaurant do we have to make reservations for lunch or dinner?
DEFINITELY make reservations online (via the hotel website) for dinner, often times reservations are full if you try to make them closer to your arrival date. You can surpass the room number by putting TBD (I think) in there to put your reservation in. Lunch reservations are not an option.
Thank you for the video. Did they have any evening activities for teenagers? 16- 17 year olds?
Hi Suzanne, no I didn't see any programming for teens unfortunately. If you go to the end of the video (probably the last 2 minutes or so) I posted the activities schedule as an image, feel free to pause on that to check out what was offered. Hope it's helpful!
What time of year did you go? I’m thinking of going in November?
Hi. Looks like a great trip. In the spa, was the water therapy part of the all inclusive package? I figure the messages and so forth are for a fee, but curious if the hot tub and cold plunges were free? Thank you
Hi! If you book a service at the spa (for an additional fee) you are welcome to use any of the spa facilities, including the hot tup and cold plunges for free!
@@perfectpals thank you 😊
Thank you for this review we are planning on going with our 2year old! We just want sun, beach, quiet and good food. Was room service included!?
You're so welcome - you'll experience EXACTLY THAT! I believe that room service was included, but we never used it!
Resort looks nice. I've only been to Iberostar properties. Do you know how they compare?
Unfortunately I've never been to an Iberostar property - sorry I cannot be of help!
How late can you use the pools? Since there is no nightly entertainment, do you know how late the bars are open?
Not going to lie, I have no idea. We had relatively early bedtimes because of the kids, I think there was a sign that said that they eventually close though. Recommend contacting the resort for clarification on this. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful with this.
wow beach
would you say it was a nice beach? clear water/calm or rough water ? I'm looking to go in May!!
Yes, it was definitely a nice beach, the water was more calm than it is in the hot hotel zone. Less waves. We were there on some days where there was some wind and rain, on those days the ocean was more murky, looking but on the calm weather days, the ocean was clear and aqua blue. You could see right to the bottom if you walked to the edge of the pier in the video. So yes, beautiful beach.
Hi, great video! Can i ask if there actually floating aqua park? I dont see anyone reviewing it, but its listed on their site as one of activities. Have you seen one? Thank you
Of course you can! So yes, it is there, it is in front of the Garza Blanca. I meant to get a video of it. But you can easily walk over there and use it - my husband and kids did for a while and had a blast. The floating aqua park is really just like a giant blow up bouncy thing in the middle of the ocean. Must wear a life jacket while on there, which you can grab from the stand on the beach in front of it (free.)
@perfectpals awesome, thank you so much for replying, the kids going to have blast then!❤️
Hello when you get all inclusive did all this restaurant will be free or charged
how was this place compared to wyndham altra? which would you recommend for families?
To answer the 2nd question first, yes I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this place. It was clean, aesthetically beautiful, great food, service, was quiet (not a party atmosphere) etc. However Wyndham Alltra (while still targeted for families) had a little more "action" / fun throughout the day via entertainment at the pool, and definitely had more evening entertainment. Wyndham Alltra had entertainment every night, including a live band to accompany their stage shows which is impressive. Quite frankly, my family would go to dinner then bed most nights and didn't stay up late, but several weekday nights, Villa Del Palmar did not have any evening entertainment aside from the artisan vendors selling items. So depending on what you're looking for, both are great choices. I personally preferred Villa Del Palmar based on the fact that it is a newer resort, therefore a bit nicer, the heated pools, several hot tubs, and a big one - the amazing food. Like truly - didn't expect the food to be as good as it was.
Oooooh❤❤
were the restuarants included in the all inclusive or just the buffet?
Yes, every restaurant featured in the video (and posted to the resort website) are included in the all inclusive! Just be sure to make your reservations weeks in advance as they fill up.
Hello dear,
Are all the restaurants part of all the inclusive package?
Hello! Yes, all the restaurants shown in the video are included in the all inclusive package! Worth it!
Is there any water slides for the kids?
No there are no water slides.
Did the Resort provide airport travel?
Yes but you need to pay extra for it. Round trip was $100 + tip.
❤ there’s things kids can do it ? How about the shows at night ?
There is a kids club at the resort that is free / included in the all inclusive stay. So there are activities there for the kids. But aside from the pool and occasional evening entertainment (not every night) that is all for kids.
How long ago did you visit?
We were there the week of February 5, 2024!
Hola , cuánto cuesta hospedarse en éste hotel ?
¡Hola! Depende de la época del año en la que visites el hotel. Los precios cambian, por lo que lo mejor es contactar con el hotel y preguntar precios para cuando quieras visitar.
Where was the magic show
It was outside of the Garza Blanca, next door to Villa Del Palmar
Wyndham vs this, your verdict ?
Without a doubt, Villa Del Palma’s. Food was a step above, pools and facilities were pristine and newer. But if you go for night life and entertainment, this is not your place.
