Palapas Ventana

We had a wonderful stay here. Perfect location, clean, friendly staff, and great food! With paddle boards and snorkel gear included, we could be out on the water as much as I wanted. It was a truly magical experience for some rest, and relaxation. Only challenge was when connecting to a 90 min zoom call, the WiFi didn’t sustain. I was kicked offline multiple times through the call. However, for other online work, it was sufficient enough. Would go back for sure!

If your bucket list has catching a Rooster Fish or a Dorado using a Fly Rod then Palapas Ventana is your dream come true. An amazing experience combining clean, comfortable Casitas, a world class restaurant, a staff that take care of your every need and Boats and Captains that cater to Fly fishing. Don't miss the rush of having a Bull Dorado take you to your backing in a nano-second or seeing s monster Pez Gallo explode on the surface Popper you just cast. An incredible experience at a very reasonable price. f

I've been here 8 times, and it's always been fun. Mahalo Captains Yoni and Chuy for putting us on some fish. And thank you Tim Hatler for going out of your way to make sure our trip was memorable. Food was exceptional and service top notch as always.

Great place, came there with my wife for spearfishing and freediving in mid May. She is brand new in freediving, but performed surprisingly well and hit new depth in blue water. Tim has built a great team of dedicated, hard working and polite people. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating Food was great and there are some great beer and wine options They will clean, freeze and cook your catch, this is important after 8+ hours being in the water, so you can take some rest. Special thanks to Manual Meno, spearfishing guide. This is the second time I dive with him and he always works hard. He goes with us in the water, spotting the fish and manages the flashers, chum and doing safety. I feel very safe diving with him. Great wild life as well, we saw dolphins, sea lions, whales, mobula rays, etc. I missed couple wahoos and red snapper, so will come next year with kids to get them! It is very safe and family friendly place. It was easy to communicate with other guests and everyone was friendly and down to Earth. People from the entire world come there. I felt the service was much better than you get in US now and people are more relaxed. Smooth transportation to and from the airport. Thank you to the entire Palapas Ventana's team, everyone was great during our stay! Denys

Not worth the price. Shared bathrooms and showers, no towels, no shampoo, and despite requests, our view was blocked by a boat with a blinking light that was left on through the night. Restaurant on the property also had terrible service. We usually are not picky about our accommodations but we would not recommend this spot.

Great stay. Amazing food here at the restaurant! Best in La Ventana? Casita was delightful and air conditioning worked perfectly. Snorkel gear, sea kayak were great. Only one working bike out of 5 so didn't get to use all the included amenities.
