Grand Palladium Punta cana
We had a wonderful stay at the Grand Palladium Punta Cana! The hotel is amazing – great food, clean rooms, and a relaxing atmosphere. We especially want to mention Francis from the entertainment team. He was always friendly, full of energy, and made every activity so much fun. His shows and enthusiasm made our vacation even better. Thank you, Francis, and the whole team for making our stay unforgettable. We would definitely love to come back!

Grand Palladium Resort & Spa
We have been very satisfied with the resort. The customer service is exceptional, the food is delicious and ambience is serene and inviting. The beach is clean and I love the turquoise water on a bright sunny day. It’s breathtaking. If you want to take a break from all the chaos this is the place to go.

Absolutely stunning resort, honest review
This resort is absolutely beautiful. I've read other reviews about staff being unfriendly however our experience was the opposite, everyone was super friendly and very helpful. I would agree with other reviews that you need to book into restaurants early as they tend to fill up quickly. The room we were in was lovely, and the grounds, pools, beach, etc. are pure paradise. We got upgraded for our honeymoon and came into balloons and matching t-shirts, which was a nice touch. We did feel like we were duped into looking around a resort with hard sales techniques for us to buy into a loyalty program after being told we would be picked up to 'be shown around'. Didn't spoil anything really as was raining that day but if it had been sunny, we would have been very annoyed, especially since the salesperson was very loud and touchy. Also we were told 90 minutes once we realised, which became 4 hours.. had an issue with one of the restaurants bringing the wrong food and then not rectifying. Saying that, the setting, staff, number of food places, bars, and general feel of the place was heavenly. All other restaurants were amazing. The chic caberet is a must. Seems expensive at 80 dollars per person, but we love that kind of thing, singing, performing. The food was glorious too. I'd strongly recommend doing that. Beware if you do the boogies, you get absolutely drenched and covered in mud driving through puddles so take stuff you dont mind being ruined or needing a deep clean along with bandana and sunglasses, so much fun though I would recommend this! The dolphin experience was amazing, i dont usually like doing animal experiences with captive animals but found out they actually have a large 'playing area' in the sea and they genuinely seemed super looked after and happy. I'd definitely go back to that resort or others in the Palladium group, we thoroughly enjoyed our time and were sorry to leave. Theres ice stations everywhere and clearly signed restrooms/maps etc. On check out we still had access to all food and drinks while they stored our bags. Absolutely recommend this place. Lastly, my feedback on the restaurant issue and sales patter was responded to with a lovely personalised email so yep - go, you won't be disappointed.
