Based on what clients have told us when requesting for our help, we decided to let people know hereby about the complaints received day by day and how people have been affected by Villa del Palmar.

Villa del Palmar is a resort that belongs to Villa group timeshare in different locations throughout Mexico like Cabo San Lucas, Cancun, Islands of Loreto, Puerto Vallarta & Riviera Nayarit. Villagroup time share resorts count with different recreational spots like pools, tennis courts, gym, spa & nearby golf course for you to enjoy and experience a relaxing vacation in a place where you can find from villas to condos, suites and penthouses, all for public in general there is no “only members” area.

Villa del Palmar timeshare reviews show that regardless of all amenities that these resorts offer they are scam experts at what they do, the Villa group timeshare personnel know how to talk like professionals, negotiate like professionals and rob money from you like professionals, many people have fallen victim, so protecting yourself from a Villa del Palmar timeshare scam is the best thing you can do.

It is obvious that resorts will worship their company and submit about their great services on forums created by themselves, this is a new tactic that resorts are using to not appear as bad as they are. So, when you search about Villa del Palmar complaints you’ll find yourself with many articles or websites that mention totally the opposite, these again, is work done by them. Luckily there exists reliable websites that expose what they really are. 

Villa del Palmar Complaints

Villa del Palmar’s sales area has a well recognized reputation because of the lies, scams and salespeople misrepresentations of the contract just for you to sign up for a timeshare with Villa Group. Under so many complaints about Villa del Palmar timeshares, the pressure and lies from the salesperson are the most spotlighted ones in forums around the web and the main reason for a vacation to turn into a nightmare. 

Villa del Palmar sales associates like any other sales person will tell you the wonders you want to hear in order for you to make a purchase, starting for example with offers of fascinating gifts just to attend a sales presentation. Then, lie about timeshare presentations lasting only 90 minutes, but at Villa del Palmar you can be up to 4 hrs in one, just to end up being one more victim of the Villa Group scam.

Do not let their astonishing words lure you away from reality, it is extremely important to read the contract before signing. Usual Villa del Palmar timeshare complaints in reviews forums are from people being attracted by the salesperson's promises and enden up with something totally different. The contract clearly states that any verbal promises made by the sales representative that are not noted on the contract are completely invalid.

Villa del Palmar timeshare salespersons affirm that owing a space with them is the best investment you can do in your life, really? investment? There will be no economic income, no renting, no reselling, you are only paying for future vacations at a high price, for the same place and date, period. Purchasing a membership at Villa del Palmar is not an investment, and it’s also stated in the contract. Thus one more lie, one additional to Villa Group timeshare scam.

Being a member of Villa del Palmar timeshares is not as glamorous as advertised, among so many Villa group complaints, not in conformity with having purchased a membership with them is the predominant.

If you are a current owner of a timeshare at another resort, the sales associate at Villa del Palmar, will offer you a trade in, promising to sell your existing timeshare and give you a better one with them. One of the major Villa Group timeshare scams is exactly that, the sales associates will “sell” your existing timeshare through a resale company and give you a better one with Villa del Palmar, but you end up owning both timeshares. This scam is being spread around all the resorts belonging to Villa Group, such as Villa del Palmar Cancun timeshare and Villa del Palmar Cabo timeshare

Instantly, the urge to contact the person that lied to you arises, and the attempt to reach them starts. You then realize that you can’t get in touch with the salesperson, what happens is that sales people change their name oftenly so you can’t get in touch with them, some others change from resort since they’re already burned at the one they are at. This can occur at resorts, Villa del palmar flamingos rentals companies.

It’s crucial being informed about any type of association before getting into any resale or rental company, many of these promise to list your timeshare and sometimes insist they have a buyer interested in your property, however you have to provide an upfront payment, red flag, most companies that ask for an upfront fee are not a legitimate company. 

Now, something that’s true but they don’t tell you is that they are not obligated to sell your timeshare, so what they do is inform you they’ll take your timeshare and sell it, but they really just put it into their inventory, which is considered as listing, and keep you there waiting while you remain paying until a buyer magically appears, or you simply stop paying thinking your free from them, obviously the selling process never goes through and you end up owing them and sent to collections. 

Villa del Palmar usually works with Monterey Financial which is a collection and at once a financial company. 

Another common lie that sales associates at Villa del Palmar mention is when you finally decide to start with your Villa del Palmar timeshare cancellation process, they affirm that your contract is under the United States Law because their headquarter office is located in San Diego, which is not true, the contract is under the laws of the place where the purchase was made, so if the contract was signed in Mexico means it is under the laws of Mexico

Additionally, the repeated lie regarding the rescission period, which if it has already passed, you cannot cancel. Fairy tale, according to the Mexican Law you have a recession period in order to ask for your Villa group timeshare cancellation, though it's not stated in the contract. 

You must be very cautious as some parts are not stated in the contract and can affect you significantly. Besides not containing the rescission period clause, it also does not include the contract cancellation clause, where it mentions that you are able to cancel the contract, evidently they don’t want you to ever abandon them.

In some cases, other clauses are included in the contract but do not help you somehow, instead it can cause an impact when attempting to cancel your membership. As for example, the 30% penalty fee if you request for the cancellation of the contract, warning, it clearly mentions the cancellation request only, it does not mean that by paying the 30% penalty, they’ll cancel the contract. When the time comes, you’ll be told that the cancellation application was not successful and you’ll remain having the contract. Don’t keep falling into their tactics to get more money from you. 

Moving further with another scam tactic is at the moment of signing your agreement, salespeople will eventually tuck in a waiver where you rescind your right to cancel your timeshare contract, this eventually would be their shield at the moment of trying to cancel your Villa del Palmar timeshare contract. Though a waiver is an illegal action in Mexico, they recur to it hoping not to get caught, otherwise they would be penalized. Therefore making you sign it it’s one of their fraudulent missions.

Between many of Villa Group timeshare reviews you can also find about Villa del Palmar’s customer service, which honestly is not like how they brag about it, its customer service is awful. They never answer the phone, and if they do answer, quote, “whatever problem you may have can be solved by paying a fee”. Sales assistants never know when to just stop with their sales practices.

Villa del Palmar Complaints

Bottom line, be prepared to be harassed by the sales staff if you are not a current Villa Group timeshare owner yet and scammed when you are one.

If you plan on attending a sales presentation or get tricked into one, inform yourself before making any kind of purchase, and even if you are rushed, read the contract carefully before signing it. Make sure that what you were told is stated clearly in the agreement, ask as many questions, doubts you have or if there is something you don’t legibly understand. Remember it’s your money, it’s your purchase, IT'S YOUR CHOICE!

    Fui por primera vez en mi vida a vacacionar a puerto Vallarta, puerto que tenia muchísimas ganas de conocer y lamentablemente pase una muy desagradable experiencia. Al llegar al aeropuerto y después de recoger el equipaje en la salida de llegadas están unos módulos donde unas personas te ofrecen casi regalarte unas entradas para un espectáculo llamado " los ritmos de la Noche " a cambio te venden las entradas en $ 2000.00 pesos argumentando que es 2X1 pero a cambio de que aceptes una invitación a desayunar, te solicitan que les muestres tus tarjetas de crédito y que les des tu numero de teléfono para poder localizarte. Si cometes el error de aceptar quieren que estés a las 7:00 A.M. listo para llevarte a mostrar sus instalaciones si por algún motivo les cancelas ese desayuno y la visita a sus instalaciones se ponen muy agresivos y groseros y como ya tienen tu numero de teléfono te envían mensajes ofensivos o te hacen llamadas para insultarte, ( especialmente un señor de nombre Abelardo que esta en esos mostradores ). Tengan cuidado y nunca les den sus datos , teléfono ni les muestren sus identificaciones ni tarjetas de crédito y si desean asistir al espectáculo de Los Ritmos de la noche háganlo pero contraten con las agencias que existen en el hotel en el que se vayan a hospedar. Los $ 2000.00 pesos que pague los pude recuperar hablando en una oficina que esta en el mismo aeropuerto y de la cual mandaron llamar al jefe de esa persona ( Abelardo ) para hacerle saber la conducta que estaba teniendo ese señor con los turistas que llegan a visitar el puerto.

    not so much a complaint as a question....Got 2 calls from the Attorney General's office in Mexico City. She said they arrested some guy who's been trying to 'buy' Villa del Palmar timeshares, at highly inflated prices (wanted to buy mine for $54,000), and using various USA company names to prove he was 'legit'. Said someone at Villa del Palmar, Cabo, was selling copies of the contracts to this guy. The AG wants me to send a copy of my contract and proof of any $$ I might have sent or wired to anyone for the 'purchase'. I've never sent any money, as I figured it was a scam. I'm wondering if anyone else has been contacted by the Attorney General's office, and if THIS is a scam too! Strangely enough, someone filed for unemployment benefits in my name back in October and they had my SSN, date of birth, and the company i worked for. Unfortunately, they paid out almost $10k before they 'thought' it might be fraud! I just got the notice from them on 6/5. Whoever applied for the benefits had info on me that they could only get that info from a credit app. The address they used was in San Diego (very close to Mexico!), I live 3 hours north of that in the high desert. I wonder if it is tied to this guy busted with all these contracts from VdP.

    This resort is a total fraud, i was scammed by this people , and actually i still have problems with the cancelation process, so if you are looking to buy a timeshare or something like this , pls avoid that friend, buy a timeshare is the worst investment that you could ever do in your entire life , peace.

  • Luis Tirado May 4, 2015, 9:01 am

    hello there , at first in my own opinion , a timeshare is not a worth thing, by my own experience the only thing that i can be sure is that IS NOT WHAT THEY PROMISE, years ago i had a lot of complaints with the sales people and some extra charge that they demmand me, so many times i tried to cancel my timeshare but was impossible, tnx God finaly i did it.

  • ElisaApril 30, 2015, 5:51 pm

    para mi este es el peor resort en el que he tenido la infortuna de hospedarme, me presionaron como nunca para asistir a sus presentaciones, y ademas el servicio fue horrible!! ya sabia yo que me ofrecian cielo mar y tierra para que fuera a escuchar horas de mentiras para intentar venderme algo que al final no me iba a servir de nada, mantengase alejados!!

  • Tyrone DeansApril 26, 2015, 7:02 pm

    I have called several different numbers and mailed letters. I have had no response from anyone. So much for caring about the members and trying to "make things right". I always thought Villa del Palmar was above these tactics--I recommend no one go to a sales representation or members update without their attorney.
