This is definitely a budget hotel. The property was in the process of remodeling, as multiple buildings were off limits - and it desperately needs it. Everything in the room was painted over - even the lamp. Only one elevator in building 3 was working, the other was stuck on floor 8 the entire time.
The staff was very helpful, esp around the pool area. Happy hour is nice, with 2 drinks for the price of 1 - and they bring them both at the same time. Breakfast buffet was just ok, we started going out for breakfast, as there are lots of better options in PV.
Taxi service is always on property, so it’s very easy to get around. There is a food park across the street that opens daily at 3:00. Lots of options and better price than eating on property.
Once you’re off the property, EVERYONE is going to try and sell you something. They notice your hotel band, and become vultures. Everybody we encountered off the property said they worked at Villa del Palmar, it became a joke to me and my daughter. Every random person on the street will try and give you tickets or excursions for just 30 minutes of your time. I felt like the wrist bands made us targets. Imagine walking down the street and a random person calling out your hotel to get your attention. Yes - it’s that bad.
You want luxury, this is not it. If you’re on a budget and won’t spend much time at the hotel - this could work. I’m sure there are much better options in PV.
