Apr 25, 2025Great food and great service
Hortencia was great and super kind. We saw her every morning at breakfast. She makes amazing omelettes. The resort was also very beautiful and the rest of the staff were also amazing. Everything was excellent. Food was amazing and so were the drinks!

PV vacation
The gym at the Grand Palladium is awesome. As an old competitive bodybuilder, the gym had everything needed for me to stay in shape during my stay. Dumbbells go to 70 lbs and there are plentiful plates for free weights. The cables are worn and tricky to navigate but can be done.

Wedding
Very good service. Just the dinner reservations were not user friendly and can be better. The people and staff were excellent. The buffet food could have been better.

Grand Palladium Couples Vacation
We stayed as 2 adults at the Grand Palladium Vallarta for 9 days with 2 of them being travel days. Overall our experience at the resort was excellent with only minor inconveniences. The food was almost always excellent with the exception of the Japanese restaurant serving me a raw steak, but I think this was a fluke as I asked the server for rare and he may have mistook it for raw. The activities provided are all very good and a lot of fun if you are interested in that kind of thing. All the bartenders and drinks were great. Our room was clean, quiet and ready when we arrived 2 hours before check in which was amazing. All the staff at the resort are very professional and respectable. The pools are generally very clean and nice. The beach was great and ocean water was fun to be in. The shows at night are a bit of a hit and miss, some are very good and others are underwhelming, but the performers and staff that put them on are excellent and clearly passionate about what they do. There is quite a bit of walking around the resort but if you are someone with mobility issues, do your research about this resort before coming to it. We will definitely come back to the Grand Palladium Vallarta but want to check out other resorts at other destinations before we come back. Make sure to research everything the resort has to offer, rooms, restaurants, etc. before coming here to make sure it is right for you.
