Yes, the resort is big but it was at full capacity when we were there and you couldn't even tell. The beach is... More

I don't even know where to start! We had such a fab time here. I'll do it in sections so I don't excitedly babble too much! We travelled with First Choice from Bristol (via a 20 hour detour to Cozumel but that's a whole other story...!) from May 2nd to 16th. Room: The room was beautiful. We got upgraded due... More

The resort itself is very large. It's actually a combination of 4 resorts in one: Kantenah, Colonial, White Sand, and Riviera. There's the Kantenah/Colonial side ("K/C"), and the White Sand/Riviera side ("W/R"). In order to get from one side to the other, there's a car (looks like a little train) that goes from lobby to lobby. The train takes about... More

This resort had a few great things. One is the Mayan Shower.....it's worth the upgrade (however it often took 10 minutes to get warm water and very often warm water never came). The pool here is spectacular; loved the "in pool sunchairs." The food was better than Cuba or Dominican. The beach was mediocre at best, the service was poor... More

We had a great time at the Grand Palladium Resort.... just some things you should know. 1. The Kantenah Junior Suite is not that big. We had a family of 4, and I thought it was a little cramped. The bathroom is pretty small. It is pretty much the size of a standard motel room in the USA. It didn't... More
