We stayed with a party of 8, 4 adults and 4 children ranging in ages from 5-11. We really enjoyed the butler service as it made dinner reservations very easy compared to other resorts we have stayed at. The resort is big and has a lot to offer, service was great except at the beach buffett/restaurant. Overall great stay and would definitely come back again!

Property was beautiful, from the lobby, grounds, the rooms, and the pool, everything was very well taken care of. My only suggestion is to keep an eye out for food and service in a la carte restaurants. Food quality is inconsistent across buffets and the a la carte restaurants can use more staff. Drinks were great , bartenders in lobby of FS were awesome! Thanks to Betty and Fernanda for taking care of my family and me!

We stayed 6 nights and had a great time. The property grounds are gorgeous- that was my favorite part. And seeing all of the local wildlife. There are iguanas and lizards everywhere and other small Mammals and birds. As advertised the property is very large and we didn’t even see all of it. They have transportation available whenever needed to get from point A to B. We used that regularly. Our kids preferred the main pool and the white sands pool over the smaller family selection pool so unfortunately we didn’t take advantage of the family selection bars or pool. The sargassum was horrible and we didn’t get to enjoy the beach at all. We did attend a UV party on the beach which was fun at night. The entertainment could use a little upgrade but we did enjoy the Latin Dancers and went to the tequila and taco party on the first night we arrived. I wish we would have not been so tired- that would Have been fun to dance and try some of the food and treats. The rooms were adequate and comfortable. We really only used our butler for making dinner reservations and setting up rides a few times. I didn’t have the what’s app and had to relay on others in our party to contact them. I tried to download it but had no cell coverage and I couldn’t get the app to work. The WiFi was decent throughout most of the resort. We food was average buffet fare and the Al A Carte restaurants we went to were very good. Overall we throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return!

The room and facilities are new and great near Tulum. The pools and teens clud are also great. The butler service is not the best. I figured out that if I messaged him in Spanish, he could take up to two hours to respond but if I messaged him in English, he would respond much faster. The food variety was good but lacked flavor

The property was beautiful, 10 out of 10! You can spend all day exploring. It's huge! The beach has a lot of seaweed and smells like dead fish. The property was very clean. However, I had two cockroaches in my room and one on my table at dinner. The service was mostly wonderful, except when the bartenders were busy, which was understandable but sometimes they were even rude.

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!!!
