One of my favourite is Barcelo Maya Rivera and I am planning to visit for my 15’ Aniversario

Outstanding. The adult pool with the inexpensive daily cabana rentals was our favorite pool area of all hotels. The French restaurant was great and the pool fantastic. I hope it is as good as you remember it!

How was the food at the Grand Palladium?

[@leosatlarge5974]

Like Barcelo, there are several restaurants to choose from. And like Barcelo, we found that each varied in quality. Expect to try them out to find which suits your own particular tastes the best. The buffet is always a good standby, although we found that Barcelo was larger with a better selection. The upscale Barcelo restaurants were better we thought than Grand Palladium. However, if you upgrade to a better package you also have access to nicer restaurants at Grand Palladium. It might be worth doing if you wish to have a better selection and quality of food.
