For the price the Palladium Vallarta is pretty good, but I would only recommend staying in the Royal Suites as the rest of the resort is MUCH more crowded (or it was in January). The RS pool/beach/restaurant area is very nice, not crowded, and the service in the restaurant was very good. The gym was okay, it was a bit... more

My wife and I and our 2 teens stayed one week at the Palladium in March. The experience exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, all the staff were extremely helpful and really went out their way to make our experience as wonderful as possible. There were no drawbacks or unpleasant surprises, and... more

Returned from a week at Palladium Vallerta Sunday night. Stayed on the Royal Suites side which is where you want to be if you want peace and quiet. RS was only 40% full so we had lots of room on the beach and pool areas. Lots of lounge chairs and thoroughly loved the lounge beds!! Our room and bathroom was... more

We arrived in mid afternoon on March 12, 2009. After getting my luggage issue(no fault of the resort) straightened out we had a wonderful time all week. There were 8 of us in total and overall the group was very satisified with our overall experience with this resort. It definitely helped that we had nothing but beautiful weather for the... more

Don't go when busiest time of year and you will have a wonderful stay here. Lovely beaches, great staff, delicious food and drinks. Our room in building one 3rd floor had incredible view of ocean and mountains across the bay. Had best massage ever at spa. We could only stay 6 days, so were never bored with food. The foliage,... more

We were a family of four(including 2 teenagers) staying at the Palladium during Spring Break. We had a wonderful stay and can't say enough good things about this resort. The grounds are definitely 5 star in our books. The Zoo, botanical gardens, beach, Bay of Banderas spectacular. Staying at this resort you don't hear any traffic noise that you might... more

We stayed two weeks at the adults-only Royal Suites part of the resort after reading recommendations in tripadvisor. It was pricey, but soooo relaxing, almost decadent, after our last Puerto Vallarta holiday at Las Palmas by the Sea, which was crude by comparison. I would say that the resort guests were probably at least 80% Canadian. In the Royal Suites... more

I've never written a review before...but, I felt the need to defend this resort against some of the other horrible reviews that have been posted. Our group was 26 people who came down for our wedding. We all got pretty great deals on the resort and for what we paid, this resort far exceeded my expectations. The blended drinks (especially... more

We went to the Palladium Vallarta Jan 30-Feb13th, 2009 and were well pleased with the Royal Suites. An upgrade is definitely worth it. The rooms are large with all the amenities one could ever ask for and they are constantly trying to "UP" the level of service. For example, while we were there they started a DVD loan out since... more
