Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"This resort is amazing, very beautiful, gorgeous, the beach was horrible, I read one review about it not being cleaned but only a little side, the 7 days I was there it was not cleaned at all one single day. I know they have no control over nature but at least keep up with cleaning the beach, I was very sad and disappointed about that. I feel that when you travel with kids they should tell you all information regarding their activities and options available for them to enjoy the stay. I found out that booking through Expedia gets us to the family selection which I would have loved to explore more. Overall it was amazing, the resort is amazingly beautiful and the people is amazing and helpful."
