There is no doubt that one of Mexico’s most spectacular destinations for enjoying an unforgettable vacation is the Riviera Maya. There, facing the stunning Caribbean Sea and immersed in the low jungle of Quintana Roo, Palladium Hotel Group has brought to life an extraordinary complex divided into four incredible resorts, where travelers can enjoy luxury, comfort, and the exclusive All-Inclusive service that makes the brand truly unique.

Grand Palladium is located 40 minutes from Playa del Carmen and just over an hour from the new Tulum International Airport (almost halfway between both points), making it one of the best-located and most easily accessible hotel complexes in the Riviera Maya.

The complex features nearly a kilometer of beachfront and four remarkable resorts: Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa; Grand Palladium Colonial Resort & Spa; Grand Palladium Select White Sand; and TRS Yucatan Hotel, the complex’s “Adults Only” property.

Why do we love it?

Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa. This is a family-friendly hotel offering 253 luxurious suites and rooms that can accommodate up to eight guests. It features direct beach access and four restaurants showcasing the best of Mexican, Japanese, American, and Argentine grill cuisine, as well as two international show-cooking venues. Among its premium experiences are CHIC, the perfect fusion of cabaret and restaurant, and Bravo Dinner.

Grand Palladium Colonial Resort & Spa. At this elegantly Mexican-style property, we fell in love with its beachfront suites. From them, you can enjoy breathtaking sunrises that energize you for a full day of activities and amenities, such as yoga classes by the sea or on paddleboards, mini golf, poolside dance sessions, and the delicious opportunity to savor exquisite dishes at its award-winning restaurants. Here, we also experienced the hydrotherapy circuit at Zentropia Palladium Spa & Wellness—an experience designed to relax, rehydrate, and relieve every part of your body, something especially welcome in today’s fast-paced world.

Grand Palladium Select White Sand. At this hotel, as its name suggests, the sand is exquisitely white, so we recommend booking suites close to the beach area. However, another outstanding option—and one we truly fell in love with—is the Romance Bungalow by the Lake. It offers a spectacular All-Inclusive room with a whirlpool bathtub and a private outdoor Mayan-style shower, along with magnificent views of a shimmering lagoon.

Finally, at TRS Yucatan Hotel, Grand Palladium’s Adults Only property in the Riviera Maya, we were captivated by its infinity pool, from which you can capture the best photos to share on social media throughout the day, especially at sunset. Ask your butler (yes, this hotel offers eButler service) to arrange a lunch or dinner reservation at any of the more than 35 dining options available across Grand Palladium’s four resorts, or to prepare your room to surprise your partner with the most intimate candlelit dinner on your terrace, accompanied only by the moon and the gentle sea breeze.
