Beautiful huge big hotel several together as hotels, which one on foot or with a small bimmelbahn can explore. The pools are all top. All bars charms beautiful drinks. Small drawbacks perhaps at the pool bars. The beach is partly a bit rocky, but not everywhere. Snorkelling at the beach at the beach is possible, have rays and up to 50 centimeter large fish. The beach and the pools have plenty of beach chairs, but early reserved with towels which for us it was incomprehensible was, what the hotel management should respond! read more

If you want a relaxing beach holiday, combined with excursions to the historical sites yucatan to spend wants, is this hotel very good.
Around 30 kilometer south-west of Playa del Carmen away, offers this huge, from 4 hotels existing, with-for the walking lazy-comfortable bimmelbahnen related complex a comfortable, relaxing and fun filled holiday.
5 pools (of which 2 adultpools and 1 salt water pool both without animation), 8 theme restaurants in addition to the usual verköstigungsmöglichkeiten of an all-inclusive hotels, as well as numerous bars offer a variety of leisure of the finest quality. The spa and the integrated gym ... (also with a pool) are very magnificent and full of experie.
Certain restrictions exist at the beach. The beach itself is very nice, however somewhat ' crowded ' even if it always vacant chairs - then evenly in the sun - there was. However, the course into the sea less Carribean like, there are also near the banks usually is very rocky and the 'stone free' access the those who like the water with drinks in the hands are close to each other. Take but at peak times in the pools. You have to stop by ☺!
The front desk is sometimes a bit overstrained vort all if the ' weekend holiday-makers' from the united states heuschreckenartig occur.
Otherwise was the service in and out of the room (had a junior suite) exemplary and very pleasant. Regular tip makes it even more perfect. All rooms still had the old crt tv, but we weren't there to watch tv. If you want to have a fun time should be at least reasonably be english speaking. The correct spanish word timely shows and improved the service again perceptible ☺!
Otherwise would be the hotel somewhat more consequence good.
If you have signs up, in which you could get the feeding of where the hotels surrounding kommunistische verbindenen wonderful jungle animals prohibits, then that should be nachgehalten are. It was always distressing to see, like the tourists in dense row directly in front of and in addition to these restrictions and the animals fed with the score, that some of these smart join not any more the fed waited, but directly at the adults and children hochsprangen. Definitely not exciting. Already not at all if infants and babies there are.
The same applies to the reserve of the chairs. If you have clearly the instruction spends, that the hotel the don't want to, then you should also nachhalten otherwise it goes on some days not without, shade if you like!
That we with the backhaul simply from the Neckermann travel agent were forgotten and us in the short term to make smart had, can the hotel not be accused and is only for the sake of completeness be mentioned.
Conclusion: it was proved relaxing vacation. We would go back this hotel definitely again choose, it should again Yucatan should be. read more

It was an absolutely great holiday. This hotel offers really everything your heart desires. You get all the possibilities of the leisure activities. The choice is unbelievably varied, for example a variety of adventure tours with a lot of nature and animals, or romantic evenings at the dream beach, perhaps parties or nevertheless rather cultural programme, may be a bit wellness or 'hard' sport. Is great, you get a lot of excursions without 'guide' to do. We have never had such a different selection of pool areas can be enjoyed. Whoever complained here or missed something, it is your own ... fault and should stay at home. The staff is very polite and helpful and at any time approachable. We had a lot of relaxation, but also fun, could love people meet and would prefer morning back. read more

We have three wonderful weeks at the grand palladium colonial spent. The hotel offers because of the altogether 5 areas a variety of opportunities, its day to spend. We usually the morning at the beach close to the demarcated area for the guests of the royal suites Yucatan spent. There was at 08:30 hours almost deserted and you could press your desired place select itself. After the lunch we gladly by the pool the palladium Riviera/white sands anyway, here it was much quieter than at the main pool the colonial/kantenah. Who still more peace wishes, for the ' adult ... pools ' (no children) in the middle of the mangrove forest recommended. During our stay found nearly daily weddings at the beach instead of.
The building of the colonials see newly renovated and our standard room was like new, if one of the older furniture apart. However that didn't bother us. The room was big enough, had a spacious closet with a safe and a bathroom with a bath. You don't need more.
Less beautifully was then beginning december the variety of older russian guests (felt like 80%), the also the otherwise pleasant leereren beach section at the royal suite area took (and usually still before 08:00 o'clock the entire beach chairs reserved) and then into large large groups more or less loudly spent the day. Since you could only flee. Also the dinner we have in this period approximately 1 week long) then rather in the specialty restaurants were eaten, because the eating habits of the russians but to be desired leaves. Thank god the horror was then from mid december over and there were more and more families with children from the USA (we then nevertheless rather than the eastern guests).
Otherwise we were always very satisfied with the service in the restaurants. We had contrary to other statements in these evaluations always a fresh decorated table, got (except for a only exception) always immediately our coffee for breakfast and our drinks for lunch or dinner. We can therefore only praise the service comment. The ladies and gentlemen were always very welcoming and very friendly.
The room service was also good. We were every day with the different figures surprised, had always more than enough towels and the various bottles in the bathroom were also always refilled. We booked only on arrival our closet and the drawers damp wiped down, because there was a little dirt had piled up.
The diversity of restaurants really impressed us and tasted was hardly anything to complain about. In the ribs and more we have the best steak and the La Laguna (from there, you could also beautiful outside on the lagoon food), la adelite, as well as the sumtuori we would like to point out. But also the theme nights in the buffet restaurants-in particular the fischerabend with a variety of seafood and fish-highly recommended. And one should also not hesitate, the mexican dishes to try.
The grand palladium, therefore really warmly recommend, if you from the small drawback with the limited access to the sea it's expense. Otherwise was the sea wonderful.
The vast number of russian guests early december, probably this trip to supersupersonderpreis got (the impression you had at least the majority of the guests), however not again, since the standard of the hotel significantly down it. We have basically nothing against russian guests, we also have other experienced with very attractive and extremely well dressed russian women, who knew how to behave themselves. But this group was definitely not to that. read more

The hotel is part of a resort with a total of 4 resorts, which seamlessly merge (kantenah, colonial, white sands, Riviera). The complex is at size hard to beat and everywhere you will find general plans for better orientation. Except for the royal suites section may all furnishings full use. We were 2 weeks in this complex and have definitely not everything seen and that, although we always on foot on the way were and deliberately on the drive with the offered shuttlefahrzeugen uprade. The orientation at the start not very simple. While we were there, there were lots of ... american, canadian and russian guests on the complex, relatively few germans. The entire resort is in a very clean and well-kept state, including the total which resulsted that. The pool area is huge, but we were never in it, because the sea quite simply a dream was. read more

The hotel complex is really very big, initially, it is almost impossible not to get lost. But you know then quickly and also the somewhat vague formulated signs point you to some fehlversuchen. The majority of the guests come from the USA and Canada, followed by russians and europeans.
The complex consists of several hotels, the facilities can be used. With the exception of the bodies of the 'royal suites', they are exclusively. And exactly that was the problem. We had a mayan suite and the area of the ' royal suites ' directly in front of our nose. If ... you so much money for a one time vacation paid, if you want to stop not as a guest 2. rate. Means: some beach sections must be an arc to be made, there is a smaller and poorer selection of drinks and you have to at the bar in a queue rank, while the mitarbeiterein, the only the guests for the 'royal suite' service, nothing doing at the bar stands. This prepared daily fresh fruit salad to, the then the counter issues and then nevertheless rather unfriendly against 'normal' guests defended. read more

The complex is huge with a total of 5 hotels, but all the restaurants, bars, swimming pools, etc. Of the other hotels use. Between the different lobbies drive small small train or with cart, with which one also on the way or against a small tip direct in the room disposed of may. On foot is however everything easy to reach and you can the great mangrove forest with the a lot of animals & plants explore. We stayed at the grand palladium colonial and were initially also always for breakfast in the buffet the colonial. Afterwards we would rather ... in the white sand booked, since the buffet nice & cosy and the pool area also much quieter than in the colonial. Furthermore, there is the beach with the white sand nice-more beach chairs, more shade, more palm trees. But all in all, a great complex!
Beginning november were many couples since, little families with children. From the nationalities very lots of guests from USA, Canada, a few russians and a few germans. read more

Very nice, wide spread hotel area consisting of 4 resorts, the colonial, kantenah, Riviera and white sands. The whole resort is in the middle of the mangrove forest built. Partly it goes over footbridges through the jungle. Scary or fear of animals you shouldn't have. Everywhere rustles in the bushes and suddenly plunges raccoon or a coati and hopes having to feed them. The rodents (rodent) and iguanas are there already somewhat barn. There are also very many beautiful butterflies and birds on the complex. The beach and the sea is wonderful nice, türkisfarbendes water, white sand and lots of ... palm trees at the beach. In the sea should you on the stingrays be careful, who are in the sand entomb. The zones in which the stingrays stay are labelled. You can all spaces, bars and restaurants the respective 4 resorts use. Except for the royal suite area is only the royal guests reserved. Between 4 hotellobbys regularly trolley buses and shuttles. The colonial consists of 12 three-storey or 2 storey buildings. In the buildings, also villas called, are both 6 rooms per floor. There are only a few german guests in the resort, very much international guests. read more

The hotel actually consists of 4 hotels, all furnishings can be used. In spite of the size there is quiescent zones for relaxing. Liked a lot the ecological concept, of the intervention to nature was confined to a minimum. Therefore see also lots of animals and plants. The beach is very beautiful, the sea very clean. Unfortunately there are in the restaurants for breakfast no possibility the free to sit. A tip-take a look on their plates or in the eyes of their partner/partner, because the eating habits of some hotel guests (in particular the two major powers) are for ... a conscious living people, with foodstuffs also accordingly handled, not comprehensible. read more

Extensive and very good guided facilities in the middle of the mangrovenwaldes. There are also many animals and plants, via annotated boards to be explained to see and hear. It is wildlife, not 'annoying' will. There is also a large lagoon available ( small boat included). Because of the many paths are you again and again something new discover. The beach is at ebb-tide nice accessible ( partly fossilized coral ) apart from that somewhat narrow. In behind the palmenwald you will always find a shady place. Sea water is crystal clear. It is on the back schwimmabgrenzung little coral ... and colorful fish to see (not comparable with red sea/Maldives). The sea for the hotel is middle because of the korallenbodens not beschwimmbar, left and right of which sufficient wassergenuss. Respect in case with condor flying: no kindness when excess luggage, sometimes also luggage weighed, on board a ' Überlebensration ' of food. read more

Large resort with 5 hotels, all furnishings the hotels (except for the royal suites) can be used. In spite of the size can be found everywhere relaxzonen, partly one hardly saw other vacationers, what surprised us a lot and enjoyed.
It is very lots of different flora and fauna to be seen, you can wonderful walks through the mangroves and at the beach make. The food was good and varied, the breakfast buffet is overwhelming, in the buffet-style restaurant there were always theme nights, the speciality restaurants were also very good-nice atmosphere - good food.
The spa and fitness area ... are also recommendable.
We felt very good. read more
