Take a look at some of our most recent reviews from valued guests who took the time to share their feedback with us.
A shout out to employee Luis Guzman, one of the best bell boys (man) at Flamingos. He was so friendly and welcomed us "home" every night when came home from dinner. It certainly felt like home with a reception like that each night! Plus he always helped the ladies out of the van which was a nice touch.
Thank you Luis for making our stay a special one.
We recently returned from Villas del Palmar. We enjoyed it so much. We did not want to come home.From the panoramic views of the bay the beautiful sandy beach and the magnificent pool. Reggie, the pool manager was still there doing a wonderful job. It really was like coming home. All rooms that we have stayed at have been spotlessly clean. We have always felt safe there, but for those who are nervous, the security is excellent. We enjoyed the restaurants the walks to Bucerios and the proximity of the fully stocked supermarket, which had everything from booze to chicken. The welcome is always warm and the staff in the front lobby from the doorman to the front desk, including Iris, Cesar, Erik, Patty, and Jami we’re always so helpful. I noticed that they now have streaming TV, including Netflix, which is great for keeping the children occupied when they’re tired of swimming in the pool. We are looking forward to going next year.
This place is truly amazing, my home away from home It starts as soon as you arrive-the bellmen make you feel welcome- all of them. From their welcome words to their taking care of your stuff to getting a taxi, they take care of your needs- Antonio, Alonso, Luis, Eduardo, Alberto and Oswaldo. Most likely, this outstanding crew will be back year after year. Then the concierges - Bertha and Lucy among others, take care of your needs from helping with the check in to making dinner reservations. What I like to do is stand in the middle of a pool and look around to see how beautiful and well maintained the place is
Love coming to Flamingo’s because of all the wonderful staff who are family to me.
Kudos to entertainment staff Lizbeth, Miguel, Lalo and especially DJ Jose.
Housekeeping staff are amazing, Laura, Jenifer, Cristina and many more whose names I’ve forgotten from various departments.
Bellboys Antonio , Eduardo, Luis y Alonso.
Waiter Miguel .
We always have the best family vacations at Villa del Palmar Flamingos. Our fantastic servers Conrado and Jorge make our annual trip memorable and we look forward to seeing them each year. They provide exceptional service and they are the main reason we keep coming back.
If you’re looking for a clean, family friendly, easy to navigate property, this is the place for you- and don’t forget to ask for Jorge and Conrado at the pool.
Had a great family visit with our 9 year olds. Kids Club was a first for us and a welcomed way to get a bit of a parenting break on a family vacation. Pool was nice, walkable to Bucerías and a grocery store. Restaurants were fine, but we preferred off site for both cost and quantity. Will be back at some point.
We’ve been going to Puerto Vallarta for many years but we decided to try VDP Flamingos in Nayarit this year. Everyone at the resort was helpful, the food was good and everything kept clean. Antonio (Bell Man) was extremely helpful as were all the concierge staff. Taco bar staff were fabulous and a great place for lunch and a cocktail. Expensive to get to PV but Bucerías is close with many restaurants and stores.
We have been traveling to this resort and other locations in Mexico for the last 8 years. It never disappoints great customer service,cleanliness, safe, we always feel welcome. If an item gets lost , they’re always really good about looking and returning it. There was a time that we left the hotel to go check out, and I had left some earbuds on the bed, they called the front desk within 15 minutes and they returned the item. Will definitely be returning with my family.
The servers in the Mexican restaurant were really great. Especially Andres and his crew Patron David Elias Jenny Enrique and Rofo. Top notch service. Facilities were wonderful. The beach was great. The food was fantastic. The room accommodations were very nice.
The staff is phenomenal. Especially Miguel. He’s the best!! He seems to love his job and makes the visitors happy, He serves at the beach and pool area, always with a smile and friendly quick service. The food was also great. We can’t wait to come back!
We had a restful, refreshing, wonderful vacation. We stayed 9 days all-inclusive and out of our past 10 holidays in Mexico, this was one of the best. The staff were very friendly. The pools, grounds and landscaping were meticulously maintained. The rooms were clean, well-stocked and included a small kitchenette. We enjoyed the restaurants, especially the flavours, quality of food and the servers at the Tomattilos and Japanese restaurants (excellent service from Miguel and Luis at Tomattilos and all the staff at the Japanese restaurant!) We really enjoyed getting up early and walking the trail into Bucerias and exploring the nearby town and it's beaches. Thank you for a terrific vacation!
This was our second trip to Villa Del Palmar Flamingos. We are planning a third just as we are getting back. The resort is beautiful. The service is absolutely incredible.
Just got back from a month at Flamingos. The Bartenders are so amazing! Maria, Adaulto, Alfredo, Isac, Zully, and Humberto all made our stay very special. They are not only staff, but have become our friends! The Bell Staff are all so helpful! Antonio, Luis and Oswaldo are awesome! The pool staff's service was outstanding! The resort is beautiful and the grounds workers never stop! Can't wait to come back next year!
We have been coming to this resort for years. The staff are amazing and so attentive! We move around the pool so that we can have our favourite server Alex, he looks after us and honestly makes our stay so welcoming!
Wonderful views of the Bay of Banderas! Staff is amazing!
I think this resort is the nicest one in Nuevo Vallarta!! Very well maintained and staffed. Everyone treats you too notch when you stay there. Rooms are spacious and quiet. Our place to be when we go to Mexico!!! You won't be disappointed if you stay there!
" 7 years later," we r glad to be back. Wonderful location with well looked after grounds.
Staff go over board to make your stay wonderful. We were greeted with a room with two queen beds. Abit disappointed. Staff did their best to find us a king bed after two days. We would be honored to be welcomed back by staff to try again. Let us know.
We loved our stay. Clean rooms, amazing service by everyone. We would highly recommend this property for its service, facilities and views. And value for money. Book directly through the hotel number for great deals.
Always Beautiful. Spent the day by the pool, it was amazing
Great experience, pool restaurants, amenities, convenience store, room service, all 5 stars
Excellent staff. Clean rooms with nice amenities.
We had the very best vacation ever. The resort is breathtaking. The service is unmatched.
Lucy and Edie were so helpful. Lucy even helped me make a beauty appointment in Puerto Vallarta.
We upgraded our ownership after a lovely breakfast with Danny. Serge helped us with all our questions and everyone in the sales office was truly attentive and kind.
We absolutely love Villa del Palmar and Flamingos did not disappoint.
I just have to say, these fellas Miguel, Said, Ramon, and Reggie are absolutely next-level! They’re not just doing a job they bring the pool to life every single day. The energy, the laughter, the way they make everyone feel included it’s truly unforgettable. From the moment they show up, the whole place transforms. They’ve got the smiles, the spirit, the humor, and the heart that turns an ordinary pool day into something you’ll always remember. They don’t just entertain they connect. They make you feel like family, like you’re part of something special. It’s rare to find people who love what they do so much that it spills over into everyone
I want to extend my deepest gratitude to Raul and the entire team at the Trattoria restaurant at Villa del Palmar Flamingos. Your warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made every visit feel like more than just a meal—it felt like being welcomed into a family. From the thoughtful recommendations to the way you anticipated our needs before we even asked, you turned each dining experience into a cherished memory. The care and pride you put into every detail, from the beautifully prepared dishes to the sincere smiles, did not go unnoticed. Thank you for making our time here unforgettable and for reminding us that true hospitality is a work of heart.
Very clean and very fun. My daughter had a great time and asked to go back every day. The staff are very attentive. Will definitely use again!
We had a wonderful time at this resort with our family. The food and service were very good. It was clean and accommodating. The Japanese restaurant was our favorite. Douglas was our favorite waiter there and he had a great personality. We will definitely come back
La Estancia was the perfect location for our summer family vacation. Room- Stunning we had a “family room” which included two separate rooms and a huge balcony and master bathroom. AC and hot water were more than sufficient. Property- Very clean and well taken care of. Iguanas were fun to spot. One of the gardeners even had a hawk that he deployed to keep away birds that at most resorts would come and eat food. Beach- Warm water, clean with moderate waves. La Estancia is an oasis as the other hotel beach and pool areas were noticeably more crowded. Our boys loved ridding jet skis which can be rented a short walk down the beach. Note you need dollars or pesos for the rental as this vendor isn’t part of the hotel and is not setup for Apple Pay/Credit Card. We had wonderful beach service from Jesus who led the beach hospitality team and never had an issue getting five spots under the shade right on the beach. Service- The absolute best part of the hotel is the service. Everyone we encountered was so kind and helpful. Special thanks to amazing butlers Ivan and Caesar who made our stay one to remember. They should be given an award for their level of professional service. Food- We did the all inclusive which was a great option for our family and our butlers set up an amazing in room dinner that our family enjoyed. Since we stayed at the Estancia we could eat at either at our property or the one next door Flamingos We enjoyed lunch next to the pool with steak tacos with chocolate cake or banana split. Believe our boys ate their weight in chocolate cake. I liked the Italian restaurant at Flamingos as it was next to the beach and tasted great. Room service is available 24/7 and drinks are refreshed daily. The staff even provided a bag of microwave popcorn for watching movies in our room.
We took our family in March and stayed for five days, but my wife and I loved it so much that we had to go back again in May. In March, we accidentally left our iPods at the hotel. The front desk manager, Patricia, was fantastic in attempting to recover our missing iPods. It was an insurmountable task and she was very helpful! Our trips are always blessed Cristibol, Pedro and Coronado. And of course, Santiago. But we were very blessed and grateful for the professionalism of the front desk manager Patricia. We are going back again. Just a helpful tip, we bring a sound machine with us. It plays ambient sound similar to what you would find in an infants room. It cancels all outside noise and our sleep is incredible on the comfortable beds. You will never go wrong with VDPF!!!!
This is our first time at this resort and we cannot say enough about the five star service we received from Edwin and Jesus. Edwin made sure the drinks were flowing and that we were up on activities, happy hours, etc. This guys personality alone is worth five stars!!! Even when we weren’t in his section he came to check on us. Jesus made sure we were comfortable in our seats and section, always bringing fresh towels. Poolside food is great as well as the restaurants. There were six in our party and we have zero complaints. Top notch!
Great pool service by Edwin. This young guys is the only one who shared information regarding happy hour after 5 day at the pool. Too bad we didn’t sit in his section sooner. He also shared more information regarding the resort. Edwin was top notch.
Villa del Palmar Flamingos has been our second home for several years. My wife and I look forward every summer to spend three weeks in this paradise. The food and accommodation are outstanding. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The entertainment team led by Ramon is top notch. My wife loves the Zumba, aquafitness, and the Mexican show. Truly, this resort is our home away from home.
We are owners here and love being on the beautiful Pacific coast of Mexico!
My husband and I stayed with some friends at Villa del Palmar Flamingos and were so impressed with the attention and service we were given. All the staff treated us with a smile and made sure everything was satisfactory. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Special thanks to Alonso and Antonio for always greeting us with a smile… you make a difference.
We LOVE our time spent with the most helpful and kind people here at VDP Flamingos!! Antonio and Alonso do an outstanding job with greeting us and taking care of every transportation need and luggage assistance. While our Elite Concierge, Laura, Ede, Mary and Ana do their very best to accommodate our entire stay with reservations both on and off property. Highly recommend!!!
We always have a fantastic time at this resort. The bellboy, Antonio, does an amazing job of recommending restaurants, getting my young adult daughters taxi drivers to get them to and from safely. Always a hug when we arrive and depart!
Another wonderful trip to Flamingoes! We brought our friends and they loved it and plan on returning! Special thanks to Lucy and Aurora concierges and Lio and Antonio and Luis bellman and Octavio on the beach. We are already booked for next year!
Hospitality has been wonderful and the staff is so friendly. We enjoy our visits here!
The facilities are top notch and the sun is so wonderful, nice and warm and so very consistent. We plan on returning next year with family and enjoy more of this wonderful facility, long walks on the beach, good food and celebrations!
I come here every year with my family and we’re always very impressed with the service we receive at the pool. This year Isabel was our server most days and was wonderful; she was very attentive, sweet, and funny!
Wonderful staff, exceptional hospitality. Shout out to Betty who kicked my butt in aquasize! Natali, Isobel, Cristobal and Alex to name a few of the fantastic servers we had. Alex from activities for the Salsa lesson. Great time had by the whole family!
Ive been there 5 times and I cant wait to return next winter. the place is beautiful and the service is fabulous.
We love the spa here. Very relaxing, it is one of the best we have seen at a resort. The staff pampers you like nobody else. We have done sugar scrubs, tequila massages and who knows what else over our visits here. Definitely want to make it a stop on a visit.
Gorgeous property, wonderful service
The couples massage is amazing with champagne and strawberries after! Marcelina gave me the best massage of my life!
Having just arrived for a week, we’re very happy w/our choice! The suites have an ocean view (we got one on the 7th floor of 8) and are really well-appointed: en suite, kitchen, two large beds, fridge, cookstove, microwave, large closet w/safe... Great choice!!
Truly relaxing vacation experience. Great food and atmosphere and very attentive staff.
Everyone was friendly and welcoming, great service, great food, forgot to mention Josefina our personal maid, like a sweet grandma! Definitely would go back.
Great experience! Excellent service and all around fun place to meet new friends.
This is a wonderful place to stay, just had the best time. Great service, good food and close to one of our favorite places in to eat, Bucerias!! Thanks Martha and Oscar for the best recomendations on rest and things to do. For sure will be back!!
My husband and i stayed here for first time, and to be honest, we were surprised for all the good service that we received from the beginning. Omg, Isabel at the pool was wonderful, whatever you need, she's there for you. Also thanks to Martha & Oscar from Concierge, for all the support and service. Thank you everybody !! You are such a beautiful hotel.
Concierge and Martha were amazing! Drinks are cold and delicious, people are friendly, view is AMAZING!
Wonderful trip, made even better by the great concierge staff, especially Mary and Aurora! Can’t wait to head back!!
