Judy and Maria's Impressions of the Grand Palladium Palace Resort
The property presents arriving guests with an impression of a well-maintained hotel that is fun and active.

Judy and Maria's Summation
The guests rooms have been fully renovated and the
décor of the rooms and suites are large, bright and spotless. The off-white marble floors accentuate the walls and the fabrics. The rooms have been updated with whirlpool baths and all of the amenities that will make your vacation in Punta Cana comfortable. The loft suites are a particular favorite of ours due to the fact that the second floor loft will separate parents from children downstairs and provide a semblance of privacy. No matter what accommodations you elect to purchase, all rooms are wonderful.
