I had a somewhat mixed experience at the Grand Palladium. While I found the food to be quite good and the pool area enjoyable, I was really let down by the outdated rooms and the rocky beach. The staff did their best to maintain the beach despite the seaweed issues, but overall, it did not live up to my expectations based on the reviews I read before my stay.

We had a fabulous time at the Grand Palladium Colonial, enjoying its beautiful setting amidst tropical gardens and efficient, hardworking staff. The resort offered a solid selection of dining options, but the food was not the five-star quality we expected, and the room experience had its ups and downs. Overall, it’s a delightful place to relax, but the value might not suit everyone, especially those who aren't big fans of all-inclusive stays.

Our stay at the resort was pretty enjoyable, with beautiful grounds and plenty of amenities to keep us busy. The rooms were spacious and generally clean, though a little outdated in decor. Most of the staff were friendly and eager to help, but we did encounter some inconsistent service at times. Dining options were varied, but we had mixed experiences with the food quality. Overall, it's a great place for a relaxing vacation, but there are a few areas for improvement.

My family and I had a fantastic time at this resort! The location is lovely, surrounded by lush greenery and wildlife. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, but the dining experience could use some improvement with more varied options. We loved the activities available at the beach and pool areas, but some amenities, like the snorkeling gear, felt a bit outdated. Overall, it's great value for money, and we would definitely return.

Overall, we had a fantastic family vacation at Grand Palladium. The staff were incredibly helpful and dedicated, and our kids had an amazing time enjoying the various activities. The beach was beautiful and relaxing, but we were disappointed with the dining reservation system. While the rooms were clean, they could use some updates, and we did encounter an unfortunate incident with a lost phone that left a bittersweet note on an otherwise great trip.
