Very Nice Week
A very convenient location, inside Palmas del Mar and only steps to the pool or beach. Nice ocean views from one BR, and golf course view from the other. Owner responsive to issues, but did not address non-functioning microwave and icemaker in fridge. From a prior review, still lacks basic wine glasses. As others have noted Beach Village is an older area of PdM so a bit dated - but met all our needs. Note there are additional restrictions to be able to use tennis/pickleball courts as it is a separate club with membership rules restricting access to open play (and additional costs). Thanks - look forward to a return trip to PR down the road.

Second Time Guests
The location is superb - price and availability led us back to this unit for a second year.
We use the kitchen for most meals so our only complaint would be in the Kitchen. A decent set of cast iron or aluminum is pretty cheap - NON-worn-out-old-teflon pots and pans would be a HUGE plus!
There is a lack of good, usable kitchen utensils; cheese grater, vegetable peeler and sharp usable kitchen knives would be a minimum - the cabinets lack knobs so it takes several days to memorize what side to grasp to open cabinet doors.
The gas grill is on it's last legs, nice to have a full tank but it has issues.
The washer / dryer doors open toward each other making laundry an exercise in yoga contortion in a tiny space, but they do work quite well.
And please, once again we ask for wine glasses.
Otherwise a wonderful 4-star stay - happy to be back and will return.

Shell Beach House - Garden Unit
I went to PR on a work trip. I was able to find this property at the last minute and I must say it was an incredible find. The property is located in a pristine gated community where you feel safe and relaxed at all times. The property was clean, spacious, fully equipped and located steps from the beach. Just an incredible experience. I will definitely rent this property again and will suggest to other to do the same.

January Getaway
Great location! Walk across street to a beach that seemed almost private, next to pool, on golf course, within easy walk to village area with marina, restaurants, small grocery, couple of shops.
The condo was nice, plenty of space for 2 couples and well equipped kitchen and laundry. It was a relaxing, peaceful place to enjoy warm weather in January and easy to explore the island from.
I would recommend this to others.

Old unit excellently located in Palmas del Mar Resort
The unit is almost 50 years old (Beach Village is one of the first complexes built in Palmas, around 1974); the unit is close to the beach, the pool and Palmas main amenities. It is fully equipped, but cleanliness needs improvement.
Excellent location and comfortable bedroom arrangement.

Palmas Del Mar
We have a fabulous time at Palmas! Great proximity to the beach, pool and other amenities.
Nice accessories for beach pleasure, including chairs and umbrella.
Wished we could have stayed longer!
Minor improvement; wine glasese and ice packs for the coller, please!
We hope to visit again next year!
Thank you-
Marita

Short Stay for Funeral
The property was the perfect location for our visit to PR. Although we were there for a family funeral, we were able to relax and destress. The view of the golf course and 3 minute walk to the beach was a plus.
The apartment was spacious and the beds comfortable. Although we only made coffee, the kitchen was equipped with everything needed to cook meals.
Because I was a resort GM for six years, my only suggestions would be a little TLC (fresh paint) and in depth cleaning. Other than that, it was a very nice stay and Carlos was very accomodating when I requested a late checkout!
