We spent 4 weeks in Ecuador and were fortunate enough to end up at the Palmazul just by chance. We saw the lobby and pool and knew it was the place that we wanted to kick back for the last few days of our vacation. The air-conditioned room had a king bed and sliding doors out onto a balcony.

Palmazul is surely the classiest place in San Clemente, with lovely views of the ocean and a great pool. Staff bend over backwards to be helpful and usually succeed, if one wants to adjust a dish in the restaurant or needs something special, like an extra bed in the room. We four stayed more than a week and our nine-year-old... More

The hotel is located on the the beach in San Clemente. From the pool you can walk straight down on the beach and walk as long as you want on this nice, quiet beach among local fishermen and seabirds. Every room has a balcony overlooking the sea.The rooms have a basic good standard and are nice and clean. This is... More

We booked in for three days but stayed for six! We would have stayed longer but our flight back home left the next day. Our room overlooked the beach and the ocean and we left the balcony doors open at night to listen to the sea - then when we woke up we swam in the beautiful pool or dashed... More

We want to spend a little bit Holiday in Palmazul after a long journey, but we can't believe our eyes. A hotel, from the first view really nice, but the second view for example on the rooms were, that the Design is old, stagnant and it seemed to be grubby. On the beach there aren't any loungers, 20m on the... More

Me, Jessica Meza, owner of Palmazul personally received the beautiful couple Haessler Muller from Germany, as the day before we had a wedding at the hotel, and the guests were just doing their check out, so our receptionist was busy at the moment they arrived.

My husband and I spent a week at Palmazul and loved it! The room was very comfortable, great linens, roomy, and an ocean view off our balcony that was to die for. All the public areas are open to the outdoors, as the weather here is perfect all the time, and no bugs, just a gentle breeze. The pool, the... More

Just returned from a two-week stint in Ecuador. We stayed three nights at Palmazul and could not be happier. Our room (15) was small, but very clean nicely appointed, and it had a great view from the third-floor balcony. The pool was terrific. The poolside beds were a great place to relax, and the beach was beautiful and clean. What... More
