I`m a surfer without young kids so I prefer staying at the adult side of the Palladium hotel. There are 3 very nice but more expensive suites that I suggest staying in if you stay in the adult side. Otherwise, you have no view whatsoever or just some of the grounds. The suites I`m referring to have a great view... More

My husband and I spent a week here recently and absolutely loved it. It was our second time in this area but the first time at Grand Palladium and we would recommend it. The location is fantastic - remote enough to make it super-relaxing, but close enough to towns like Sayulita where we did all our shopping (awesome fish tacos... More

Hotel is about 40 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta. We visited near end of may and the resort was VERY quiet. Very few guests. We preferred this, but if you are looking for a party I would suggest visiting at another time. There is a family pool and an adults pool which would be useful during busy times. The staff... More

This is my second time staying here and it was almost just as awesome as the 1st... The food is really good, there's a pile of bacon every morning that's replenished frequently. Also there's a Caesar and mimosa station, great for those days of lounging around the resort. Buffet is great and restaurants OK. The reason I say this is,... More

My second visit to the Palladium Vallarta was May 25-June 1, 2013 and I must say, it was even better than the first visit. It had been nearly 7 years since my last visit, and so much has changed and improved– to the credit of a VERY hard working team of people. The constant of this resort is the warm... More

The claims of updating have been much exaggerated! We were here 5 years ago and it hasn't changed a bit - ok, the spa is a little different, but that's it. We definitely had a relaxing vacation, but have to agree with the 'mediocre' food/service rating. All employees were very agreeable, but did not seem to get around to completing... More
