This was our first trip to a Grand Palladium resort. Family Selection was perfect for our family vacation & I cannot say enough good things about the service provided. Having the pool for family selection only was wonderful as it was much quieter than the big pools at the resort. The Nest restaurant was lovely for an a la carte option for breakfast. Our butler Abraham went above & beyond to make our trip unforgettable & help with my husbands birthday celebrations. The small details like the nightly delivery of sweet treats to the room was nice. The food at Bahia & El Dorado was too notch. Although the combined resort is quite large, shuttles are readily available to get you where you want to go. Drinks in the Kantenah lobby bar were great. We will be returning in October.

Our room was nice, except that the swim out deck was in direct sun from early afternoon until sundown, so was virtually unusable for anything except drying clothes. If you are going with young kids, the Family Selection is a good area. They start you off with beach toys and candies in the room; candy depots everywhere are cool if you keep track of how much your kids eat. Excellent activities are available and the staff are really kind to children. We chose the Family Selection so our granddaughter could come to our room and swim. Might not choose it again. The staff were mostly excellent. Our butler, Erick, handled all our reservations and additional requests. We came back to our room one morning while housekeeping was there. I witnessed my coffee cup being cleaned in the bathroom with a facecloth … presumably rinsed with sink water, rather than a replacement. We also spent two days with no hand towels … a minor inconvenience, but pretty basic stuff. Pools were good. The White sands pool is walkable for most people, the Colonial is about 5’ deep in most areas, so a little harder for shorter people (like me). Restaurants were hit and miss … although mostly hits. Italian, Helio, Sushi show, were all amazing. El Dorado steak was a little disappointing, but my wife said her salmon was amazing. The beach sandwich bar is pretty gross. I chose a hot dog as my best option. However, all of our other dining experiences were somewhere between good and fabulous.

We just got back from a week stay at FS kantenah beachside Villa 4018. I have nothing but positive feedback to give to this resort. We have been to many other properties over the years and this will now be the one we recommend to family and friends. Claudia at the FS check-in was amazing at facilitating rooms that worked for our multiple families and was able to upgrade us due to our Expedia VIP membership. We had two butlers Emmanuel and Luis who answered any questions we had immediately via the what’s Up app and were able to book activities for our children as well as book all our a la carte restaurants for our two families. We will definitely be back!!! Our expectations were definitely exceeded!!!

This place was so amazing! Very clean, amazing and friendly staff. Food was hit and miss but overall really good. Bar drinks seem to be watered down a bit but really tasty. Our butler Daniela was over the top amazing and she is the main reason we will be returning. It’s a very large resort and the frequent carts going around make it very easy to get around. Nightly entertainment is great. Daily entertainment could use some work, especially for the teens 13-17. If the resort can keep the costs down, I can see this resort being fully booked year round. I highly recommend this resort to all my friends and family and anyone looking for a great time.

Vacation April 2025 We’ve been to a few resorts in Mexico, The Grand Palladium Family Selection is the best so far!! The service with our Butlers was astounding. They were kind and very friendly and always at your service if you needed anything. The resort itself was very clean and welcoming, it was beautiful with so many amenities available. The buffets and a la carte restaurants were also very clean and the food always fresh with so many options available. The nighttime entertainment was so much fun for the whole family. There is always activities happening during the day with the junior club to keep the kids entertained. Already looking forward to return for our next vacation.

Stayed for 10 days and were blown away by this resort. Our kids (4 and 7) had a blast with the pools and activities. Our butler made the stay so enjoyable with a couple surprises for my birthday and our honeymoon. The service was top notch everywhere we went. The AC worked great in the room. First time at an all inclusive where things smelled nice and clothes weren’t damp! We were also very impressed by the food at the buffets and a la cartes. If you have kids, I highly recommend booking the family selection part of the resort. It’s the first all inclusive where I came back actually feeling rested and not overstimulated from the vacation with our boys!

Our family stayed at Grand Palladium Family Selection this April. The properties, rooms and amenities were absolutely beautiful. The concierge was very friendly and ensured we had dinner reservations and any room requirements (towels, soap, water, etc) The beach was beautiful (even though it was sargassum season) and the pools were lovely. The resort staff were very accommodating and a pleasure to interact with daily. We loved that it was built around the jungle and all the animals were comfortable with human presence. Entertainment was great for families and we liked that there was something for adults here and there. If you are looking to unwind, relax and have some fun - this is the resort for you!

The resort is beautiful. The Nest restaurant has great food and service and kids club right inside of it which is a great idea. The family selection pool always has loungers available and has a great entertainment for kids and service. The rooms are modern and clean and butlers are super helpful. The beach is not great because of sargassum but it's a problem for this whole area
