If you've ever found yourself googling "what to do at Villa del Palmar Flamingos" while planning a Mexico vacation, you're in for a treat because the answer is basically everything. From the moment you check in, there's a steady rhythm of things happening, and the hardest part is honestly just picking where to start.
Situated right in Nuevo Vallarta, Villa del Palmar Flamingos is one of those places where you could easily spend an entire week without running out of things to do. But it's also perfectly positioned if you want to venture out and explore the stunning coastline. Let's break it all down!
When people think of vacationing in a resort, they pretty much picture sipping drinks poolside and... that's about it, but at Villa del Palmar Flamingos, it’s a different story.
The Villa del Palmar Flamingos activities program is genuinely packed, and across the board, it caters to everyone from toddlers to grandparents.
Mornings here have a nice flow; you might start with a beach yoga session as the sun comes up over the Bay of Banderas, followed by an aqua fitness class in the main pool, and if you're more into breaking a sweat with rhythm, the Zumba sessions are an absolute blast. Don't worry about looking silly; nobody cares, and trust us, you’ll have so much fun!
For those who want to lean into the culture, the resort offers Spanish classes and traditional Mexican dance lessons. It sounds like a school field trip, but these are actually one of our guests' favorite activities. Learning a few steps or picking up some local phrases feels way more meaningful when you're actually in Mexico.
Mexican cooking classes let you get hands-on with ceviche, guacamole, and other delicious recipes that you can actually recreate when you're back home. Spoiler: nothing will taste quite the same, but it's still worth it.
And when you’re ready to wind down for the day, the suites make it even easier. They’re spacious, thoughtfully designed, and many come with full kitchens and ocean-view terraces, perfect if you’re after that home comfort with the bonus of room service. Some of the one- and two-bedroom suites are especially impressive, and are the kind of spaces where you’ll happily spend a slow, lazy afternoon just because you can with no regrets.

If you're traveling with kids, this place was practically built for it. The family friendly activities are genuinely fun, not the kind of programming that entertains for 20 minutes before the kids are pulling at your sleeve again.
The kids' club runs activities throughout the day: eco arts and crafts, kite making (yes, they fly them on the beach after), treasure hunts, face painting, piñatas, and even their own version of Spanish classes. There's also a pizza-making class and cookie decorating; any activity involving food tends to be a crowd favorite with little ones.
And for the whole family, the beach and pool areas host volleyball tournaments, water polo, belly flop contests (always hilarious), and balloon wars that tend to spiral into something wonderfully chaotic.
The evenings bring themed entertainment too: Havana Nights on the beach with salsa music and dancing, DJ Night at the Sports Bar, and the Sunday outdoor movie night under the stars. There’s plenty of action for everyone.
Now, let’s talk about the all-inclusive resort Nuevo Vallarta for a moment, because it really does make a difference in how you experience your vacation. Villa del Palmar Flamingos takes the stress out of the equation with meals, drinks, and entertainment all wrapped in. You're not doing math at dinner or worrying about the bill at the bar; that’s the beauty of the all-inclusive here.
