'OUR PALAPA' TRANQUILITY AWAITS - UPDATED AND REMODELED


"Our Palapa" is located at El Zalate in San Jose del Cabo, a fabulous vacation destination for families or couples. With the help of our dedicated on-site staff, we strive to make our home as clean and comfortable as possible. Top Shelf Management company will arrange transportation from and to the airport, coordinate excursions, a personal chef, or a massage on the balcony. Whatever you desire, our team is here to help. El Zalate is a small complex, you have a private patio, the pool area is large enough for social distancing, and the beach is not crowded. You will find the staff at El Zalate very friendly and helpful. The security guards speak Spanish and English and are eager to teach you a few phrases. They will call you a cab and greet you cheerfully as you come and go throughout the property. We hope your vacation is filled with fun-filled unforgettable memories.

Enjoy our private secure balcony with a beautiful luxurious rattan couch, chairs, BBQ, and a dining table for six. The home includes two bedrooms and two full bathrooms including a pillow-top king bed and two full beds. The kitchen is equipped with all the amenities for cooking or BBQ, a washer and dryer, and ample storage in closets, and dressers. TV, internet. A safe is provided for your valuables. English-speaking helpful 24-hour security guards, a locked beach gate, and ample lighting provide a safe environment. El Zalate has a gym available to all our guests. It is clean and private for owners and their guests only. 2024 NEW Pickleball and a NEW gym are on-site and available for our guests. The gym includes an elliptical machine, row machine, bicycle, treadmill, weight machines, and free weights. All the equipment is new in 2024. The gym is open 24 hrs. and has AC and a bathroom.

Fresh Seafood Anyone?! Don't miss out on a true Mexican experience. Caesar and his daughter are regulars on Friday afternoons. He arrives with large scallops, sea bass, grouper, parrotfish, lobster, and the largest shrimp you will ever see! All fresh from the sea. Don't be turned away by the service of the items directly from ice chests from the back of his old red pickup truck. We have had the seafood many times, it's always delicious.

If you like organic dining check out Acre and FloraFarm. They are located east of San Jose in Las Animas and offer a unique outdoor dining experience.

H, located in San Jose is another fabulous dining experience. Luis, the owner, and chef will treat you like family. reservations are recommended.

On Thursdays, San Jose del Cabo hosts an Art Walk. Many art galleries, artists, and shop owners are on hand to greet you. There is something for everyone at the Art Walk. Restaurants, bars, and stores are open for your pleasure. The streets of Downtown are closed and families and couples roam the town enjoying art, fashion, music, and food.

On Fridays, Palmilla has a Farmers Market. Nestled among upscale boutique shops are farmers with produce and homemade goods straight from the farms.

If you need accommodations before or after your stay here at 'Our Palapa'' you may want to experience, El Encanto, a quaint hotel in downtown San Jose, its ambiance is quiet and has an old-world Mexico flavor.

We provide oversized towels for the pool and beach, four beach chairs, hairdryers, and basics in the kitchen. Bring your bathing suit and toothbrush! That's all you need for an awesome time!

Enjoy!

We had a great stay in this very comfortable condo with amazing views. We swam in the pools every day and visited most of the recommended restaurants. It felt a little like we had our own personal concierge, as the recommendations and available services were spot on. We enjoyed it all!

Lovely View
The place was very nice and had a beautiful view. Very quiet & low key place if that is what you are seeking. It was nice to be able to use a gym one mile away for free. Had everything you needed. ****Only issue was our friends who stayed in the guest room only had luke warm water in shower. The Master bathroom shower was hot but not guest room bath. That is something we complained about but supposedly nothing could be done about it. So if I paid half for the condo, I’d want to know that going into it. Otherwise it was a nice stay and very responsible manager & owner.

Everything we needed
Loved the location. 3 great restaurants within a short walk and Ubers everywhere for easy access to anything you need! (Oxxo next door for quick simple purchases and beautiful Grocery only 1km away) The condo was clean and comfortable with easy access to the pool and beach. Pool was heated and perfect temp. (Kids under 12 not allowed in hot tub tho and strictly enforced by neighbours. All very nice ;) It was also valuable to know in advance that beach was not safe to swim in. The Owners were easy to contact and very responsive. They were gracious enough to accommodate us one more night at the last minute when our flight was cancelled. We loved the condo and were Very happy with our stay! Thank you!

Lovely Stay!
My husband and I just returned from a one week stay at Dan and Judy's beautiful condo. It was spotlessly clean when we arrived, comfortable and well decorated. We had a few questions during our stay and they were answered quickly by the owners and/or property managers. We have stayed at El Zalate many times in other condos. You cannot find a more serene and secure spot with the most incredible views! We plan to return in a year and are already looking forward to the trip.

We liked the fact that was place was clean, the view was fantastic, and grounds were kept up. The beach was almost part of the property it was so close. Having our own kitchen was so nice, made it nice for small meals or you can cook a meal too. Our communication with the property managers was very good and helpful. It was peaceful there. But, if you wanted some excitement a uber ride to town was less than 10 minutes away, you could walk it through the beach if you wanted to. Were already planning on a return visit, highly recommend this condo.

Hidden Gem
I'm hesitant to review this place because we want to keep it all to ourselves! Honestly, the pictures don't do it justice. The condo was clean, spacious and prefectly situated on the property. Gorgeous views from a comfortable balcony living room. The pools were large with ample space for guests and never crowded. With a bar and restaurant next door, fresh fish sold by locals after their day on the water, and the local supermarket a short walk or uber ride away- what more could you ask for?! Our young teen girls joined us and their room with 2 beds was a perfect fit for them. We enjoyed this so much we are already talking about our return! This was a find we were more than happy with, just don't tell anyone!

An oasis with ocean view
Incredible place with resort feel but without the noisy bustle. The place was clean and well stocked. We loved the lanai with the beautiful sunrises, 3 temperature pools and direct access to the beach. Our only critique would be that there was no hot water to the master shower but it didn't take away from us recommending this place.

My wife and I spent 8 days here, and it was really nice to be at a low key property ( no time share pressure) the week was very relaxing with some golf and Thursday night art walk. We had meals at the palapa as well as Mama Mia’s next store just steps on the beach away! It was wonderful sitting on the balcony watching sunrise and drinking Mexican coffee!! A 5star get away, hoping to return again soon….. thank you Dan and Judy! Oh yeah we saw whales from the balcony too !!

Wonderful trip!
We loved our trip to San Jose del Cabo, and this apartment was simply perfect. Waking to the sound of crashing waves, sunrises over the beach, plentiful swimming, and comfortable accommodations- what more could we ask for? We loved having breakfast every morning on the balcony overlooking the beach, and our 5-year-old couldn’t get enough of the pool. Dan and Judy offered lots of recommendations ahead of time and were fantastic hosts. We hope to be back someday!

Oceanfront Beauty
We just returned from a fantastic 8 night stay at this beautiful oceanfront property. We fell in love the moment we arrived. The check-in was seamless, the onsite managers arranged our transfers and we opted to have them stock our fridge which I highly recommend! The condo is lovely, well equipped and has the most amazing patio. We watched the waves for hours from the most comfortable outdoor furniture on the deck and spent the majority of our days floating in the gorgeous pools. The complex itself is well maintained and quiet. The neighbors and other guests were all very welcoming and friendly. We took advantage of the Friday Fish Lady who comes to the complex with her truck of coolers and sold us the most delicious Seabass, Halibut and massive Prawns. We bought $40 US worth of fish which provided us with 4 amazing dinners that we bbq'd in the comfort of the condo. We loved going into the town of San Jose Del Cabo and we found our favorite local beach front restaurant Mama Mia's which was right next to the complex. We spent several Happy Hours ( 2 for 1 Margaritas) and dinners with our feet in the sand, listening to their live music and entertainment of the night. We have rented VRBO's all over the world and even own one ourselves, however this was the first time we have rented a VRBO in Mexico. I have no idea why we opted for the all-inclusives for so long. This condo is the perfect spot for an amazing vacation and Judy and the onsite team at the complex made every bit of our stay effortless. We ate better food, had a more tranquil environment to relax and took the 8 days at our own pace. We have booked to return next year!

Balcony was beautiful
I rented this condo because it had a huge balcony overlooking the ocean and pool. We ate outside and lounged on their comfortable chairs and sofa outside. The flowers and palm trees added to the beauty. We had the best massage ever at the rental! All organized ahead of time. Both bedrooms had very comfortable beds and the master bathroom rainwater shower head was heaven. The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked 2 meals. The owners sent us a welcome email days before check in. Asking if we wanted the fridge stocked, massages on balcony, or a ride from airport. Great communication. One of the pools was heated. Great swim. Another pool, unheated, and a hot tub. Pool chairs facing the beach made for a relaxing day. Walking the beach was easy. We had a great meal at the restaurant next door, Mama Mia’s. Right on the beach. It was a wonderful comfy stay and I will definitely book again!!! Thank you!!!!!

My sister and I along with our college daughters had a wonderful stay at the Sage's condo! El Zalate is top notch with wonderful staff. Very safe location, close to restaurants and grocery stores. The beach view, pool and property is amazing. We didn't rent a car, just Uber when needed. The condo was nicely decorated and clean with a large patio and beautiful view. The beach was quiet and fun to play in the waves. We snorkeled and swam at nearby Pamilla Beach. I cannot wait to visit again someday!

WOW!!
Where to start? A million dollar view √ Beach in my front yard √ Beautiful condo √ Well stocked kitchen √ Beach toys and chairs √ Super helpful staff √ Super helpful owners √ Wonderful in the sand restaurant next door √ Shoot out to Rudy for doing our shopping and having the frig stocked the night we got there, that was amazing. We did walk down to the grocery store a few days later, not far at all. We took Uber back because we didn’t want to carry the groceries, Uber was $5.00 US. There is also a convenience store literally at the end of the drive way that sells a variety of things, they even had lactose free milk for the baby and liquor for the adults. This is a small complex with only 70 (I think) units and the majority of the owners live there at least part of the year. Everyone was so nice, they even loaned us a pool float for the 1 year old. Highly recommend this place!!!!! 5 stars to the condo and 5 stars to everyone I dealt with!!
