We visited the Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton during October, 2011 for a relaxing ladies weekend. While the weather was extremely rainy (October is the rainiest month in Jamacia), the issues that we experienced went well beyond the daily storms. The lobby and reception at the hotel were pretty impressive. They offered us cold towels and a welcome cocktail that was much appreciated after a turbulent trip from NYC. Our villa (Villa 40) was as far from the main building as you can get. The room itself was nothing special, but it was a bit dirty (e.g, there were dead mosquitoes in the window pane and cobwebs under the chairs and bed). The main issue that we had in the room was that we had no running water. On our 4 day stay, we made at least 15 calls to maintenance saying that the water wasn’t working … each day (sometimes several times a day) they did eventually fix the issue, however it was quite the nuisance and not something that we wanted to deal with on our vacation. When we did have water, both the shower and the sink had very low pressure that made things difficult. Our friends who were staying in the same villa, but in a different room had no air conditioner. While our room was freezing cold (and couldn’t be turned down), their room was stiflingly hot. We’ve been to a few all inclusive and were not surprised that the food wasn’t great or that there weren’t that many options. Bubba’s (the steakhouse) seemed to be the restaurant everyone wanted to go to. None of the restaurants on the property accept reservations, so when we got there on our first night we were told that there were 17 groups ahead of us. We waited about 35 minutes and when we went to check where we were in line, we were told there were now 21 groups ahead of us. We asked how that we even possible, but were not given a straight answer. We promptly left and found a less crowded restaurant. Another issue with the restaurants is that there was no consistency in terms of what was open and when. This made planning for meals difficult if you were trying to avoid the buffets. The pool, spa and beaches were some of the highlights and better features of the hotel. Overall, while this trip hasn’t turned me off from Jamaica, I wouldn’t go back to the Grand Palladium and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. I look forward to trying Negril or Ocho Rios on our next trip.

We would like to take some time and describe our wedding / honeymoon in Jamaica. We stayed at The Grand Palladium for six days and five nights.August 31, 2011 to Sept 5, 2011. Day 1, we arrived to Jamaica around 1:00 pm. From a distance the resort looks beautiful, up close there are numerous things that are not very appealing about the resort. The walkways were in horrible conditions that need repairing. When we arrived to our room, the room had a horrible musty smell to it. The air conditioning did not work, the refrigerator did not keep anything cold or even cool, the bathroom was dirty, the bathtub was dirty and one of our glasses from the mini bar had not been replaced with a new one. After calling the front desk to have to someone come clean we went to grab some lunch. Our first stop was Mo Bay buffet. Everything was cold. We had a positive outlook on this and said well the great thing about this is that its all inclusive so we can go try somewhere else. We walked down to the Jerk Hut that was highly recommended. They did have great chicken, but we did not like the rice that was served. So we ventured to Sunset Cove. First, my husband asked if they served any Vodka and we were told yes. He asked for Grey Goose and the server said he would be right back. The server came back and said they not only had no Grey Goose, but no vodka period. So my husband ordered something else. Next, we ordered our food. My husband ordered a Jerk chicken sandwich with fries and I ordered the jerk pork chop with fries. A few minutes later the server came back and said they did not have anymore pork chops. Ok, no big deal I said. What do you have, I asked. The server assured us that they had everything else. So I decided on the jerk chicken. My husband order did not change. About 20 minutes later, maybe longer. The server comes back with two plates of food. Neither plate has any fries, the server tells us he is sorry but they are out of fries. He proceeds to put our dishes in front us and they both are the exact same thing! Jerk chicken, rice and beans and some type of pasta. My husband had no bread for a sandwich and the server said to us.....sorry mon....maybe you come back earlier tomorrow. So we were not even given a option at that point what we were going eat. I have a nut allergy and we could not get a answer on how to proceed with it. The front desk told us that the wedding coordinator should give us something, the wedding coordinator said the front desk should give us something. We had no idea who to listen too. We had to meet with the wedding coordinator so we called for a cart to come get us from our room. We waited about a half hour and no one came, we called again. About another half hour went by and still no one to pick us up. Finally, our wedding coordinator called and requested a cart pick us up. A hour later, she called our room and she asked why we were still in our room, we explained no one came to pick us up yet. She called again. Finally, my husband and I walked all the way to her office even though my husband has MS and bad knees. We met with the wedding coordinator, after we were there about ten minutes, the bell man called the wedding office to say he was at our room to pick us up. She explained to him we were already there and how long we waited. We were so frustrated at this point we went to guest services to complain. We were upgraded to the honeymoon suite which was on the second floor. We had already expressed numerous times we needed first floor because of my husbands medical condition. But we decided to not complain. Upon arrival to our new room the floor was dirty and we had guests. Several ants everywhere! Again, we decided to not complain at that moment. The refrigerator was not cold and the room was cooler then the other room however not cool enough. Outside of our door we had a fire extinguisher box with no fire extinguisher in it! We went to bed hoping the next day would be better. The next morning my husband

Outstanding food and drinks! Awsome pools! With 9 Resturaunts we always had a great selection of foods - from the local creole to Italian, Indian, or Mexican we always got to try something new. Very close to the Dolphin Cove - a must experience attraction. - Swim with the Dolphins. Wonderful beaches. Not good for handicapped, as wheelchairs would have a hard time making it to the rooms. Otherwise fantastic.
