I stayed at Grand Palladium for 2 weeks in Feb. 2013 with a friend during the Carnival season. The Hotel is around 65km away from San Salvador de Bahia, where we attended Carnival on Rose Monday. The Hotel including the areal is in a good condition with beautiful pools (a separate adult only pool with integrated bar is also on... More

The Grand Palladium is a great smaller resort that surprised us! I went there with my family (my husband and my daughter) in march, last year. It's a great time to go! The room it's large, comfortable and clean. The piscina's area is very good and the most attractive is the beach, because the most resort's beach are bed. To... More

We have planned a family trip for the end of the year at an all inclusive resort. Have read good news from grand palladium all over the world and so we did. This has a beach too far from the hotel ( 1 km ) and the transport ( a golf eletric car ) takes only 6 people at a... More

DO NOT BOOK!!!! Nice development. New hotel (2 yr old) but agree that not fantastic Extremely poor service. (see below) Check in: extremely slow. You may have to wait up to 1 hr (or longer) if you get in with other guests. You have to wear a bracelet (like you could go anywhere else??? - the hotel is in the... More

We spent 1 week at this hotel, and although infraestrutures are ok (not something extraordinary, just normal), service is awful.

The Indian has Indian specialities bad very poorly prepared, and the servies is very... More

One year ago, we stayed at Grand Palladium Imbassaí and our impression was very positive as you could see in my last evaluation. As commented before, our plan was to come back and we did it some days ago and our impression was not as good as before. Some minor improvements was done, such as the access to the beach... More

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. FOR THE SAME MONEY GET BETTER STUFF IN THE CARIBBEAN. UNPREPARED AND UNFRIENDLY STAFF. While choosing the resort for our vacation, I went trough all the notes posted here, at trip advisor. As you may all see, there is a consensus that the place and facilities are awesome, but the services are far from... More

The food is horrible - badly done, uncreative - seemsthere is no chef takinga care of it. The ingredients re fine , it is the cooking that is a mess. The beach is great, the pools are fine, the room is good. The service is patchy...at times excellent at time deplorable.

This is a "five star" resort, but five stars in Brazil equal three or four in the Caribbean, so be prepared for a neat place, with all the basic needs covered, but nothing really outstanding. Guests are mostly Brazilian, followed by Argentinean, and practically no Europeans or Americans. As for the facilities, let's start with the food: the best fares... More
