Our second trip to Family Selection Kantenah Riviera Maya firstly because our kids (5 and 7 this year) just LOVED the daily kids camp so much. The staff there (including Karen, Emma, Edu, Jazi, Lore, Maritza) were just wonderful and the kids didn't want to leave at the end of the day. We upgraded to the 40 building, the beachfront one and had an absolutely incredible suite with two huge rooms and two full bathrooms, as well as a private hot tub on the spacious balcony. The upgrade for the space and proximity to the beach and view was worth it. The room was just HUGE. The dedicated butlers for building 40 were also terrific (Emmanuel and Luis) and were available to help us with anything we needed by Whatsapp. The Family Selection beach is notably better than the other beach areas as its much less crowded and much more space between chairs. Worth the upgrade! The beach itself is great and wonderful for kids because it stays relatively shallow really far out, but there are some gentle waves to not make it boring. Even our 5 year old who is not a strong swimmer could have fun a fair ways out. If you encounter rocks while walking in, shift down the beach, there are plenty of white sand only areas to walk far out in the bathtub temp water, as fish swim around you! One day a big nest of seaweed accumulated in our area but it had moved off by the next day. Tips: Bring sunscreen, its exorbitantly priced at the gift shop (though there is a communal bottle at Family Select beach).

The uograded room in building 40 had an amazing view. Rooms were recently renovated with modern look and feel. VEGETARIANS BEWARE! VERY LIMITED SELECTION.... Even the formal dinner restaurants were subpar at accommodating vegetarians. Resort is lacking in quality and features and needs significant improvements compared to other 5-star resorts and other Grand Palladium properties I have stayed at before. The only savior for this trip was the upgraded room with an ocenfront view.

It’s a very large hotel with facilities that aren’t new but are in very good condition. There’s some wear and tear, but it’s normal for its age and the high guest traffic. The staff is very attentive and helpful. We had the chance to stay in one of the villas with butler service, and that was a huge plus because they truly assist with everything! One point to consider: the restaurant by the pool is open-air, and many animals such as birds and coatis enter it. This is somewhat unsanitary since they climb onto tables to eat leftover food, and the staff has limited ability to keep them away. There are also placemats placed on the tables that are never changed and are rarely, if ever, cleaned — which, combined with the presence of those animals, could pose a health risk. If you’re traveling with children, I think this is one of the best options you can find in the area, as the hotel is not only designed but also operated to ensure kids have a great time. It offers excellent facilities for them, such as a swimming pool, a water park, and a lovely kids’ club, as well as multiple well-organized activities.

We just returned from 6 days at the Grand Palladium Kantenah Family selection and we have been sad all day, we miss it. This is a fantastic resort only outshined by the people that work there. They are the real reason to visit. Emmanuel, Luis and Rogelio are the best butlers, taking care of restaurant reservations (if you want, The NEST was the BEST with Keniya, Jorge, Antonio, Gustavo, Xcehl, Carla, Faranda to make sure you feel special!)The family selection option is totally worth it, with a private beach and bar (with Joel and Danny to take care of everything) pool with restaurant and bar, and the dining room (NEST) for breakfast and dinner with buffet and menu options. We were lucky enough to get a beach side room with a private rooftop pool in Villa 40, the best building by far. Sitting in the pool, listening to waves and looking out to the ocean over palm tree tops is serious rock star living. Highly recommended. The beach is wide with plenty of chairs with umbrella huts, never an issue finding shade. Main pool shade was more difficult at times, but not impossible. And that pool is great, huge with a water park feature my kids loved! The family selection pool is nice as well, smaller for little kids, but still big enough for some space. Food is good and plentiful, even little buffets pop up at the main pool. Nice boardwalk through eco zones with trees and animals in nature between buildings that's fun. My family really felt special here, thank you Grand Palladium!

Had an amazing time with our family. The only feedback - we booked a family selection room with a swimup pool. It would be nice if there was some privacy separation between the pool of our neighbors. We had instances where our neighbors were in front of our pool area, basically viewing inside of our room. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Trip dates: Aug 1–6, 2025. Family of 4, teens 15 & 17. Resort looks great but lacks follow-through. We were assigned the wrong bed type (one king) and had to push for a room change. Food quality is a major issue—cold, bland, and very small portions. I got food poisoning from the Sports Bar and was sick for 24 hours. Family Selection restaurant (The Nest) was slow and inedible. Pools are mixed—Colonial is too deep, Family Selection overcrowded, but White Sands pool was the best part of the resort. Drink quality poor at most bars except Churchill’s in Kantenah lobby. Also got stuck in a 2-hour Travel Club sales pitch just for massage vouchers—not worth it. Overall, disappointing stay. Won’t return.
