The Grand Palladium Hotels and Resorts have become a second home to many of us. The beauty of the resorts and the friendly and professional staff of the Grand Palladium stirred Brenda to create the original Palladium Addict site. It began as the first Palladium forum and has grown exponentially since its conception. Brenda brought all of us on board to help keep this site on an even keel due to the rapidly increasing membership. It should be noted that this site has no “professional affiliation” with the management of the resort, just a good rapport. We are totally a volunteer group. This site is solely a travel information and community site promoting travel and good will. It is an information source for people to share insight, tips, suggestions, finds and fun information related to our favorite resorts – The Grand Palladium – and all that it takes to make everyone’s vacations extra special.

We do not outsource any portion of this site and it is the collective gathering of the Palladium Addict members that bring this information to you. The Managing Team of this group is simply the vehicle that brings together and organizes the information that you, our members, provide. We strive to be accurate and are always open to suggestions, criticisms, and improvements. Over the years we have compiled gigabytes of pictures and information and our wish is to share this with fellow travelers. We hope that our present members continue to enjoy and contribute to the site. It is our wish that new members will benefit from the experiences of our present membership.

Membership is Free and the Benefits are Endless! To join just register in the forum and post your questions and comments. When you get back from your trip, don’t forget to post your trip reports!

I love Palladium Bracelets

Palladium Addict Bracelets

Grand Palladium Riviera Maya

Many Palladium Addicts have been asking for a way to identify each other. Here is the answer.
We can help identify each other and help some people in need at the same time. Cost is only $3.00 USD (minimum) and all the money goes to charity. This was something this forum asked the resort about and we can use this idea to help identify other Palladium Addicts. Pick up your bracelet at the Logo Shop.

A message from Felipe We have reached an agreement with DIF. Information about DIF website We are cooperating not only with these bracelets but also with a few other things. It really feels good when you can help others! Felipe

Children’s Make a Wish Foundation

Riviera Maya and Puerto Vallarta

On behalf of Felipe Martinez Verde, Operations & Product Manager – Vacational Americas

Thanks to this organisation kids with grave diseases, most of them with not too much time left, can have their dreams and wishes come true. We have reached this agreement with Make A Wish Mexico but we will probably have kids from the US and Canada. At the moment only our resorts in Riviera Maya and in Puerto Vallarta will collaborate. This was an initiative we had before I started in my new position. If everything goes fine we will try to do it also in our other resorts.

How are we going to help? First there are a number of rooms that will be used for the kids and their families to have the opportunity to see the Caribbean, to swim here and to enjoy our facilities; second our rooms can be used as a reward to a conquest; third we will promote donations in all our resorts, throughout our Front Desks in special moneyboxes and envelopes and fourth advertising their bank account details just for those who may be interested in making a donation directly to their account.
