  A magical family holiday we’ll never forget

  Where do I even begin! We had such a wonderful two weeks at Grand Palladium Select Bávaro. The resort itself is absolutely beautiful, but what really makes this place special are the people. The grounds are stunning — so green, tropical and beautifully maintained. It genuinely feels like a little piece of paradise. When we arrived, we decided to upgrade to Family Selection, and I am SO glad we did. It was more expensive than our original booking, but for us it was 100% worth it. We stayed in a two-bedroom Family Selection Family Suite with a pool, which was spacious, beautifully organised and incredibly practical when travelling as a family. A very special thank you has to go to Daniel, the Reception Supervisor. He was incredibly helpful, patient and kind from the moment we arrived and took the time to help us choose the right room for our family and our holiday. Daniel, thank you — you genuinely contributed to making our stay unforgettable. The Family Selection area was definitely our favourite part of the resort. The pool was absolutely beautiful, and we loved having the restaurant beside it for lunch. Nest was another highlight for us. We had so many wonderful breakfasts and dinners there — not only because of the food, but because of the incredible people looking after us. A huge thank you to Ana, Delvin and Euris at Nest. ❤️ You weren’t simply members of staff serving us — over the two weeks, you became people we genuinely looked forward to seeing every day. You were warm, attentive, funny and always made sure we were happy and comfortable. You are a huge part of the reason we will remember this holiday so fondly. The only disappointment was the beach, although this was not really something I can blame the hotel for. There were plenty of loungers and lovely areas to relax, and the hotel had both staff and machinery working hard to clear the seaweed. Unfortunately, during August this part of the coast is affected by sargassum, so the ocean wasn’t the beautiful clear blue we had hoped for. That being said, it certainly didn’t stop us enjoying the beach, the sunshine and our holiday. Overall, this was a truly magical family holiday and one that will stay in our memories for a very long time. The resort is beautiful, Family Selection was absolutely worth the upgrade, but above everything else, it was the people who made our stay so special. Thank you, Daniel, Ana, Delvin and Euris, and everyone else who looked after us during these two weeks. We left with beautiful memories and very full hearts. ❤️🌴 We would happily return.

  Very friendly staff at the beautiful place with an average and uninspiring food options

  We stayed at the ambassador suite of the Grand Palladium Bavaro hotel with the great ocean view. In theory the room sounds great, in reality, there were quite a few things broken in the room and eventually we had to relocate to another room that was significantly better and still had some miner issues. Food was very average and uninspiring, comparing to other Palladium locations in Mexico. However, the service was very good! Very friendly and helpful staff at the hotel, which was a great improvement since my last visit there over 10 years ago. Very special thank you to our butlers Maritza Gutierrez and Edward, these two people have elevated our stay and have accommodated us in every way that they could. Maritza and Edward were very courteous and many times went above and beyond that we could hope for.
