• Hotel Palmas de Cortez
  "Quiet and peaceful atmosphere"
  "We were here in November of 2012. The hotel is beautiful and the suite was perfect for our family. We've done the exciting Cabo San Lucas trips and are at a point in our lives where we enjoy a more "laid back" atmosphere. The fishing was what the men in our party enjoyed, the women enjoyed the beach...", pool and walks thru the sleepy village. The food at the hotel was excellent and portions were enough to bring some home for later. We definitely would stay here again. " More >
• Hotel Palmas de Cortez
  "Great food!"
  "I've stayed at nicer places but not for the money. The food was fantastic. Lots of new dishes I've never had before. The best calamari ever! Nice clean rooms, pool and grounds. Visited the last week of April and just the start of the fishing season so the resort was very quiet with few visitors. Mo..."st of the staff was very pleasant and suffered through our poor Spanish. My impression is this is a sleepy little town and not the place for girls gone wild type of crowd.Very relaxing. The only downside were two of the waiters, Gabriel and Negro at lunch and dinner. These two were more interested in talking on their phones around the corner and making snide remarks about my command of the Spanish language than waiting on guest. Complained to the desk clerk hope they are gone by our next visit. " More >

This hotel ..."is one of the Van Wormer Resorts that has historically catered to fishermen. I was no exception in that our fishing guide, Mike Rieser www.bajaflyfish.com , used to be the Van Wormer house fly fishing guide. Mike is an American who has lived in Los Barriles for 13 years. He makes use of the Van Wormer pangas and captains and offered us a choice between the Playa Del Sol or the more up scale Plamas de Cortez, 7 minute walk down the beach. For the same price, the Playa Del Sol package came with three meals. The breakfast and lunch are okay. But the two dinners we had were at best bland and over cooked. We sought better food at local restaurants within a 10 minute walk. The staff her... " More >
