We just returned from a 5 day stay at One & Only Palmilla. This resort is everything its cracked up to be. We had a hard time believing it would live up to the nearly unanimous praise it receives, but it didn’t disappoint. In fact, it exceeded our expectations in every category. On the trip from the airport aboard the... more

My husband and I stayed at the One and Only Palmilla for 3 nights to celebrate our 50th birthdays. My husband originally balked at paying $500+ a night for "Mexico", but upon arrival he quickly changed his mind. We had a Deluxe Ocean Front room on the ground floor of the Casa Mananitas wing. It had one of the largest... more

My new bride and I chose the O & O Palmilla as our honeymoon destination and while we had some incredibly high expectations prior to our arrival, every single one of them was exceeded beyond our wildest dreams... We arrived at the SJD airport and, while waiting for our luggage, heard someone behind us calling out our name...Our porter came... more

The One and Only is a place with a "Wow Factor". From the moment you get there, the place is truly amazing. The adults-only pool is the best I've ever seen. The infinity edge looks out over the ocean, with waves crashing just beneath. The room was an ocean front with an absolutely captivating view from both the bedroom and... more

Overall, we had a very good time at this hotel though it is not at the same level compared to top luxury hotels in Asia or top Four Seasons hotels, mainly on the service side. Room: we booked a Jr Suite front ocean patio room. Initially we were allocated to the one at the far end of the resort, by... more

This place is so amazing..If you are looking for the ultimate experience, this is the place to go! Our experience began the moment we arrived. Staff was there to greet us at the airport, drove us in the H2. Arrived with 4 greeters, one with popsicles, one to get our bags, and one to take us straight to our room... more

My wife and I just got back from a long weekend at the One and Only Palmilla. We flew down with friends that have stayed there several times, and loved it. We had just gotten back from Cabo in June with our kids where we stayed at a different hotel which is fantastic, but does not compare to the One... more

This is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. They meet you at the hummer with a parasol and check you in at the suite. You have your own private butler 24 hours a day and he brings you little snacks and gifts throughout your stay. It is pricey, but worth every penny. The view from the room was... more

This was our first experience with the "One and Only". I have to admit it was a truly remarkable experience. Once we arrived at the airport the One and Only staff was ready with our transportation to the resort. You know you have arrived when the resort has it's only exit. As you enter the gates of the resort everyone... more
