Oceanfront Beach View Villa on Violin Bay near Santa Cruz

The staff and chef were amazing. The dolphin Cove villa was stunning.

Eight ladies spent a wonderful week at Dolphin Cove! The bedrooms were very spacious and the amenities were good. Concierges were helpful. Irma and Ophelia took good care of us with meals and Josephine kept the place spotless. Pool was fabulous, perfect temperature and cleaned twice weekly. We spent many hours enjoying it as Huatulco is very hot, day and night! The views were spectacular and it was very quiet-we couldn’t hear any traffic nor guests at the other villas. Just ocean waves and jungle sounds!

Every aspect of this property exceeded our expectations. If anything the photos on VRBO underrepresented the scale and beauty of the property. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived, the fridge was stocked as requested and supper was on the table. The staff is incredible; 24hr concierge/translators were very helpful, the cleaning staff literally scrubbed the entire place from top to bottom everyday, the pool was cleaned every morning, we accepted the cook service and highly recommend. Tide was our cook and my kids adopted her as their grandmother. Tide cooked hearty authentic Mexican dishes that we enjoyed. Violin beach is worth the effort, it’s located near the villa though there is quite the elevation change that could be difficult for some. We prefered violin beach vs La Entrega as the snorkeling was awesome and there were never more than 6 people. From the pool we saw dolphins, whales, and sting rays. Incredible. One note; We travel with small children, the handrail on the patio surrounding the pool is made out of wooden rails. The handrail is very sturdy but our two year old would have easily passed through the railing where there is a 15’ drop. We were obviously very careful with him and nothing happened but it is worth consideration if you have young children.

Amazing property in an incredible location with wonderful staff. Dolphin cove villa exceeded everyone’s expectations and we can’t wait to get back.

What a beautiful place to stay. A small walk to the public beach with several nice restaurants. Only a ten minute cab ride to town. Everything was exactly as described. Very clean with Spectacular views and reasonably priced. I would absolutely stay there again.

House was amazing with incredible views from everywhere. Everyone loved swimming and relaxing by the infinity pool. Margarita was fantastic and made some delish Mexican meals. Definitely recommend for a family get together. The only concern is that the entrance of house did not have a lock. It is in a nice gated community but I guess we are just being used to locking the front door. This did not interrupt our stay and would stay again for sure.

We spent a week on this beautiful property and will definitely return. The staff was attentive and our cook was amazing. The location is safe and perfectly located to access all the sites around Huatulco.

The more wonderful time in Mexico

If you like crowded resorts, cheap amenities, and a programmed stay planned by someone else, do not stay here. I had considered many locations in Huatulco before our stay and took time during our visit to check these out. Las Palmas is hands down the best location in the area. It offers amazing privacy, even from the other villa/casitas on campus, allowing you to feel as though you are the only family/group on the entire Pacific coast. The views are mesmerizing. We stayed at Dolphin Cove. Both of the villas have unbeatable views. The beach area is almost all to yourself most of the time and is really a perfect place to hang out, swim in perfect water, enjoy awesome snorkeling, and view the waves crashing into the rocky cliffs. The concierge service is great. Feel free to arrange you own adventures, but they can help as well. I highly recommend several meals with Margarita cooking. You will not regret this. She is awesome. Absolutely ideal setting. Thank you, Las Palmas!

I stayed here on a vacation with my extended family. The house and location were perfect, and everything you see in the postings photos probably doesn’t do it justice. The staff also went out of their way to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Special mentions are due to Margherita for her delicious meals.
