    The location and ambience are everything you’d hope for in a PV experience. With the option of being under the roof or on the beach, we chose the beach. Perfect choice. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was stellar. The final check felt a little pricier than their $$$ designation. My wife continued to thank me for finding La Palapa and treating our group of four to an evening we will always cherish when our memories find us back in PV.

    Beautiful ocean views from second floor dining space. We opted for a dry foot table rather than one of their “dining pool” tables. Cute concept but we had just walked a few miles and didn’t want to take our shoes off to eat. Very friendly staff. Food had great depth of flavor and was unique to many of our other dining experiences in the area.
