The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Excellent Restaurant Experience

I was thoroughly impressed with the restaurant at Villas De Palermo. The food offered was of excellent quality with a diverse menu. I highly recommend trying the beef which was incredibly tender and flavorful. The prices were also very reasonable considering the quality of the meals. We ate all our dinners there without any complaints, and the service was perfect. Definitely one of the highlights of my stay!

Relaxing Spa Treatments

During my stay, I made an appointment for a massage with Luz, and what a good experience it was! She was incredibly friendly and the massage was comparable to what I've experienced back in the U.S. It was a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. I felt relaxed and rejuvenated afterward, and the ambiance of the spa added to the experience. Highly recommend booking a treatment!

Immaculate Villa Comfort

The villas at Villas De Palermo were impressively clean and comfortable. Upon arrival, everything was spotless and the woodwork shined beautifully. I loved stepping onto the porch to enjoy amazing ocean views. The amenities provided were nice as well, and I appreciated having shampoo and lotion available. Overall, my villa exceeded my expectations in terms of cleanliness and comfort.

Convenient Shuttle Service

The free shuttle service offered to and from downtown was a game changer for my visit. It made accessing local shops and restaurants incredibly easy. I was always picked up on time, and the drivers were friendly and helpful. It’s especially convenient considering the distance to town, making my outings stress-free and enjoyable.

Staying at Hotel Palermo was a fantastic experience overall! The staff went above and beyond, making us feel welcome and taken care of during our stay. The wedding we held there was beautifully coordinated and the venue exceeded our expectations. However, while the shuttle service is convenient, it’s important to communicate your return times clearly to avoid any hiccups. Also, be prepared for some critters in the room due to the open doors from the outside.

Our villa was clean, modern, and had its own bathroom, but we did notice it could be a bit noisy when the wind picked up. We found a few fire ants and lizards since there was a gap at the bottom of the outside door.

My stay at Hotel Palermo was a memorable experience overall! The staff made us feel right at home, and we enjoyed the beautiful views and clean accommodations. While the location is a bit hilly and the walking can be tricky, the hourly shuttle service helps make getting around easier. However, I did encounter some annoying bugs in the villa, and the dining could use improvement.

Rooms

7.0

The villas were spacious and clean, but the hiking up and down the steep paths was quite a workout. I also noticed some unwanted bugs during my stay, which was a bit off-putting.

Service

9.0

The staff provided excellent service and were always ready to help. I appreciated the cheerful attitude and responsiveness, which made our stay much more enjoyable.

Location

7.0

The hotel is located on a hillside, offering stunning views, but the steep paths can be challenging to navigate, especially after dark. The hourly shuttle was great for getting to town, but it's still a bit of a trek.

Dining

6.0

Dining was decent, though nothing to rave about. The breakfast was a bit lacking, and I'd say it could definitely improve with more variety and flavor.

Facilities

7.0

The amenities were nice, but the pool area felt smaller than I expected. It worked well for a quick dip, but it often got crowded.

United States of America, December 2024

7.6/10

Our stay at Villa de Palermo was nothing short of amazing. The villas are modern and comfortable, providing a peaceful retreat with stunning views. While the location is quite isolated and requires a trek into town, the shuttle service and options for self-catering help bridge that gap. Dining on site was somewhat pricey with limited meal options but overall, we loved the tranquil environment. Just be wary of the occasional critters around the premises.

Rooms

8.0

The villas are beautifully designed and spacious, but the outdoor stairs can be a bit challenging. We encountered a few fire ants and noticed some lizards, likely due to a small gap under the doors.

Service

Service was exceptional, with attentive staff always ready to assist. However, the restaurant was frequently out of some menu items, which was a slight inconvenience.

Location

7.0

The location is serene and well-maintained, away from the hustle and bustle of town. It's a steep walk to San Juan del Sur, and while the shuttle can help, the limited times may leave you stranded if you're not careful.

Dining

6.0

Dining was decent but on the expensive side. Breakfasts were particularly pricy for what was offered, making it worth considering eating in town instead.

Facilities

8.0

The facilities, especially the pool area, were well kept and provided a great space to unwind with spectacular views. However, the limited dining options were a downside.

My stay at the resort was a mix of highs and lows. The management and staff were exceptional, providing attentive service and creating a warm atmosphere. However, the condition of the pool and the resort’s gardens left much to be desired, which was disappointing. Overall, it’s a spot worth considering for its friendly staff and nice dining options, but some maintenance issues do need attention.

While some facilities were nice, the pool was disappointing due to a greasy film that lingered throughout our stay, making it unusable. The gardens also appeared neglected, which detracted from the overall ambiance.

Village de Palermo offers a peaceful retreat with clean and spacious villas, but some areas need improvement. The pool was unfortunately not well-maintained during our stay which affected our overall experience. The restaurant, on the other hand, served delicious meals that we thoroughly enjoyed. While the staff was pleasant, they seemed overwhelmed and unable to address certain issues promptly, which was disappointing.
