Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa All Inclusive

My husband and I took our two daughters (11 and 12) for a week stay. We travel often so look for more culture than tourist areas, which is why we chose this spot. We wanted to be away from the cruise ports and tourist section of Jamaica. This spot delivered, but almost too much, a good 45 min to anything else worth visiting either way. (Room)Pros- Spacious, clean, great bathroom, all come with a porch or balcony and daily service was nice to include refilling the mini fridge. Cons - Beds were awful. They were SO hard and uncomfortable, I didn't get a single good night's sleep, no on in my family did. At one point my daughter was on the tile floor stating the floor was more comfortable! To top it off we asked for extra pillows, TWICE. Was told they would come, waited up for over an hour and they never came. The next morning when we inquired at the desk we were told they were short on pillows and we were on a list - none ever came. One pillow made the already uncomfortable bed worse. (Food) Pros - Good variety of restaurants and the buffet was decent. Cons - Buffet would get old if you went towards the end. Dinners were first come first serve and you could easily wait 1-2 hours to eat; then dinner would take 2-3 hours to complete. (General Resort)Pros - Great beach at Sunset cove, other beaches were nice. Pools were huge and nice and bars close by. Cons - Absolutely NO lounge chairs unless you saved your chair at 8am with everyone else.

I have very mixed feeling about the property. The beach and pool were beautiful but the room was very run down. It also seemed like the activities were not well advertised or well run, which was disappointing, because there was a lot to do. The food was mixed, although there were ample options. The people who worked there were all very nice, so no complaints there.

This resort truly exceeded my expectations. This was a last minute booking after another lodging reservation fell through. I wasn’t sure what to expect and I am so glad to say that this place was exceptional. The hospitality was amazing, the children’s club staff was amazing, the food, property, beaches, bars and entertainment amazing! This place was truly a diamond in the rough for me and my family.

Fantastic property so much to see and do...beautiful grounds room exceptional and superbly decorated.

Beautiful resort definitely will be back our maid ( which I have forgotten her name) was wonderful everyone so so attentive to u.
