This was the best resort I've ever stayed at for so many reasons. Forget your worries, disconnect, and enjoy everything palmaia has to offer. If you value quality good rather than quantity, healthy food over heavy, whole foods over processed, this place is for you! The rooms are all ocean view and the whole resort is walkable. I had such memorable classes here and the personal concierge services was a nice touch and way for us to feel connected all through the week. Already planning my next visit!! Shoutout to my nomadic guide Oscar for everything he did to make our stay even better

We had an absolutely amazing 5-day adventure! Despite checking in late due to Canada’s weather, everything went smoothly and felt incredibly welcoming. The service was nothing short of five-star! Rafael, our friendly driver, greeted us at the airport with warmth, shared helpful tips, and was always quick to respond—be sure to ask for him! Throughout our stay, the staff at SuCasa were exceptional, especially Luis, who was simply fantastic. He took wonderful care of our family and knew exactly what we enjoyed. We truly loved our meals at SuCasa, soaking up the warm hospitality that made our holiday unforgettable. Our energetic guides, Oscar and Kassandra, were invaluable, helping us with all the info we needed and swiftly accommodating our requests. As a family of plant-based eaters, we had an incredible time. We didn’t have to worry about food, and the mocktails were absolutely delicious. My kids enjoyed every bite too! I arranged spa treatments for my parents, and they loved it so much they booked a second session the very next day! Don’t miss out on the Samunprai Herbal Ritual—my parents raved about it, and it’s a must-try experience.
