We stayed at Palapa House for 7 nights with 2 couples. The rooms we wanted were not available the first night of our stay, so the host made arrangements for us to stay in one room the first night, and then move for the remainder of the trip. This worked great. On the first night, the four of us stayed in room 7 on the top floor. My wife and I slept on the pull out couch which was actually quite comfortable. (Our prior night in Toronto on a pullout couch at Mariott was very poor) Room 7 was great. It was large, with high ceilings, and top of the line appliances. The room overlooking the sunrise on the beach was beautiful. We moved down to the first floor into units 1 & 2 the next morning. Shane had some juggling to do with a lot of moves that day, and the cleaning staff worked hard to make it all happen without any inconvenience. The first floor rooms were great. The air conditioning worked great as I am not a fan of the heat at night, and the beds were about the most comfortable that I have ever slept in - with high quality bedding to match. The kitchen is a bit smaller than the top floor, but has absolutely everything we needed. We bought some things to have coffee and breakfast in our room, and even cooked some supper meals in the room as well. The big advantage of the main floor rooms is that you have the pool and small palapa (we found out that palapa is a structure without walls, and has a thatch roof) right outside the door. We had our own happy hour with our drinks, and appetizers that we made in our kitchen almost every night. The patio/bar/pool area was almost an extension to our room and we enjoyed chatting with other Palapa residents there. Shane, the property manager was excellent. He promptly responded to the many texts that I sent him, and was very helpful. He also arranged a golf cart for us, and taxi on our departure. Overall, it was a great experience, and we topped it off by winning the 'Chicken Drop' contest at a bar down the beach on our last night there. I would strongly recommend this location to anyone.
Thanks.
Eric.
