Grand Palladium Sicilia Resort & Spa

Grand Palladium Sicilia is a 469-room resort on the north coast of Sicily, at Campofelice di Roccella. It is built for families more deliberately than anything else in our Italian catalog. The clubs run from age one: a Baby Club for one to three, a Mini Club for four to eleven and a Junior Club for twelve to sixteen. Four pools sit behind that, including a family pool, a beach pool and a children's version of it, with indoor and heated water for the shoulder months. Four restaurants cover a show-cooking buffet plus Italian, seafood and Thai rooms, with six bars, and the a la carte dinners need booking on arrival because availability is the most common complaint here. Two things are outside the band that guests reasonably expect inside it: room service is charged, and so is the spa unless you book Signature Level, which adds the water circuit, a premium drinks menu and its own quieter pool. Drinks otherwise pour from half past seven in the morning until midnight. The beach is direct and has a lifeguard, but it is the mixed sand and pebble of this coast rather than a soft tropical shelf. We have no reliable rate sample for this one, and the number that matters most is a different one: Palermo airport is about two hours away, and there is no easy walk into town from the resort. Plan a hire car or excursions before you arrive, or accept a week spent entirely on the property, which for a family with small children may be exactly the plan.

Grand Palladium Colonial Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

Grand Palladium Colonial is a family all-inclusive inside the Palladium complex on the Riviera Maya, for families who want a big tropical estate. There are clubs for every age. It is about 60 minutes from Cancun's airport, with 252 rooms of its own, six pools, a water park and a private beach, and the run of selected sister-resort facilities on the same shore. It sells scale, and the scale is real: the walk to dinner can be a shuttle ride. Guests praise the family amenities and the kids' and teens' clubs, the pools and the swim-up bars, the size of the grounds and the beachfront. The complaints are the friction of booking restaurants, food that is inconsistent, the walking and shuttle logistics, and rooms whose condition varies. The thing people wish they had known is that not every restaurant in the complex is open to Colonial guests since the estate was reconfigured, and that the reservations are best made on arrival. The plan covers the four a la carte restaurants and two show-cooking restaurants available to Colonial guests, eleven bars, a stocked minibar, Wi-Fi, the clubs and activities for children from one to nineteen, and the non-motorised water sports; the spa is extra, room service is limited, and the airport transfer is a paid private car. The Deluxe Garden View is the value room for a family living at the pools, and the Family Suite sleeps eight. Anyone who wants a compact resort should look elsewhere on this coast.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton is one half of a huge shared complex on the coves of Hanover Parish, for families who want many pools, bars and beaches. All of it sits inside one gated estate. It shares its facilities with Grand Palladium Jamaica next door, so the practical footprint is ten restaurants, thirteen bars, five pools, a water park with a lazy river and a string of private coves. Nobody stays on one side of the complex for long, and the coves are for snorkelling rather than long walks. Guests praise the size and variety of the complex, the family base of water park, game room and kids' club, and the number of included restaurants and bars. The complaints are service and room-assignment problems in recent reports, food that varies by venue and by which restaurants happen to be open, and a scale that feels busy and impersonal. The thing people wish they had known is to check the current restaurant rotation before a short stay, and to read recent reviews rather than older ones after the storm disruption. The plan covers the three international restaurants and the seven a la carte ones, the bars with local and international drinks, Wi-Fi, and the Baby Club for ages one to three and Mini Club for four to twelve; spa treatments are extra, room service is charged outside breakfast hours, and the airport shuttle is included only for loyalty members who book direct. The Junior Suite Ocean View is the value room and the Suite with Direct Beach Access the one to splurge on. Couples after quiet should look elsewhere on the coast.

Grand Palladium Select Bávaro

Grand Palladium Select Bavaro is a large family all-inclusive on Bavaro Beach, for families who want the run of a whole Palladium complex. It is about 40 minutes from Punta Cana's airport, with 506 renovated rooms, five pools, fifteen restaurants of its own, and more than thirty restaurants and bars across the complex its guests may eat in. The children's clubs start at age one, and the resort relaunched recently, so older Grand Palladium Bavaro reviews describe a different hotel. Guests praise the pools and the grounds, the Bavaro beachfront, the family facilities and the size of the rooms, and the dining variety across the complex. The complaints are service consistency at this scale, the logistics of a big resort, rooms and maintenance that vary, and seasonal seaweed. The thing people wish they had known is to weight the recent reviews over the legacy ones, and to decide between the standard Select product and the separate Family Selection tier. The plan is Infinite Indulgence: every buffet and a la carte meal across the complex, premium spirits, a minibar, gratuities and taxes, 24-hour room service, Wi-Fi, and the Baby Club from age one with the Mini Club up to twelve; the Zentropia spa, the motorised sports and the airport shuttle are extra, and the round-trip transfer is included only for Palladium Rewards members or a direct promotional booking. The 52-square-metre Superior Junior Suite Garden View sleeps five, the Connecting Suite takes eight, and the Superior Junior Suite Private Pool is the quiet upgrade. Couples who want calm should look at the adults-only resorts along this beach.

Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa - All Inclusive

Grand Palladium Jamaica is a huge family all-inclusive on the coves of Hanover Parish, for families and groups who want activity density. A quiet beach is not what it sells. It is about 45 minutes west of Montego Bay's airport, with 537 rooms of its own and the run of a shared complex with Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton next door: ten restaurants, seventeen bars, five pools and a water park with a lazy river between them. The beaches are small coves rather than a long strand, and the snorkelling in them is a highlight. Guests praise the pool complex and water park, the coves and the scenery, the variety of dining across the two resorts and the fit for weddings and multi-generation trips. The complaints are service that varies with the crowd, food that is broad rather than fine, and a scale that leaves little quiet anywhere. The thing people wish they had known is that the footprint is the whole complex, so a room choice is a decision about how far you walk to the beach, the pools or dinner. The plan covers the dining across the complex, the Mini Club for ages four to twelve and Wi-Fi that is fine for messages and less so for video calls; spa treatments cost extra, premium spirits are limited, and the airport shuttle is paid unless you hold the loyalty programme's membership. Junior Suites are the practical family choice; the renovated ocean-view and private-pool suites are where the money shows. Couples after quiet luxury should look elsewhere on this coast.
