Great resort. The dinning was fantastic and the pools were great. The beach was a little weedy and rocky by the White Sands and Colonial areas, but once to got into the water the sand down by the family select section was nice.

Great resort with lots of things to do. Loved the grounds, pools and a la carte restaurants. Pleasantly surprised with upgrade to VIP at check in from booking with Expedia. Our two concierges were wonderful and always available to help us with any questions throughout our stay (thank you Cielo and David!). Angel at the White Sands front desk was also especially helpful and friendly. Staff were amazing overall. This was our second trip to GP White Sands and we would come again.

We just returned home from a week stay and I’ll leave my honest review then be on my way from this page. The resort is a beautiful resort. The people are all very friendly. Upon checking in we were upgraded to VIP guests due to booking through Expedia. I’m not sure why it mattered that we used Expedia, but it granted us access to all resorts including TRS and FS. We were given butler service, which we mainly only used for booking Ala Cart restaurants. Cielo and David were great, always checking in with us and got us Ala carte each and every night including the day we arrived. They also left us a bottle of champagne and chocolates on our last night. We really enjoyed the White Sands pool, as I forgot to mention we stayed in the WS building 59. The pool was the least packed of all of the pools, as compared to Colonial where you could never find a chair after about 10 am. We ate at Portofino, La Adelita, Le Petit Chef (upcharge), El Dorado, Sumptori, and Helios, also The Nest for breakfast once. All were good, but we really didn’t like La Adelita even though it’s Mexican it’s not what we are accustomed to back in the states. The gym is very nice and clean with lots of free weights and machines. The outdoor courts are nice with baskstball, pickleball, archery, pellet shooting, and shuffleboard and mini golf (not great). We walked a lot (20k steps per day), although you could use trolleys if you like. We did one trip to Tulum via collectivo and visited the Ruins. Entertai

We had a wonderful time at the Grand Palladium White Sand. It was very nice to receive the VIP access from Expedia. My favorites restaurants were at TRS. Capricho was the best option for breakfast and lunch. For dinner we went to Portofino, Bahia Brasa, El Gaucho and La Boheme and La Adelina. The best bar at night was at White Sand with Roger and Vladimir. During the day I went to Rocco’s and Ariana snd bar attenders were great. The staff in our building were great. Our concierges, Cielo and David were excellent! We had a great room service ( cleaning, beds, towels, bathroom ). There are many places to walk and many walkways with shade. The girls enjoyed the gym and I really liked the spa. The only downside was the beach and the sargasso ( algae ). But the hotel has an excellent pool with sea water). We really enjoyed our stay, however the VIP access made a great difference.

We were very much hesitant booking that resort due to 8 out of 10 rating... However, it was not too bad. Except for being severely overpriced due to the Spring break :) First of all. Food. You will see in the reviews that "food is subpar", etc. Not at all. We were eating at buffets only, no a a la carte (we hate ordering food and waiting for it). Don't go to the buffet in White Sands. It's truly subpar :) Instead, go to the Hacienda's in Colonial. The food is great there. Selection, quantities - everything is good. The resort is huge, but for us it was a plus. Walking from one place to another - I was getting over 20 000 steps every day and it's great. but if you don't like walking - there are golf carts for lazy people. The gym is nice. The beach area is long, probably about 1 mile long or so, but swimmable area is only in the "Family selections" area and it's about 100 yards long. Everybody is there, pretty much. All other areas of the beach are rocky and it's impossible to get into the water without breaking your legs :) The life guards are way too restrictive. There is no area that is clearly marked for swimming but if you move out of some area that's acceptable for them (by eyeballing, I guess) - they start whistle blowing, annoying you way too much. Overall, the resort can benefit from a better landscaping - there was a lack of color... A lot of greens, but much red. At bar, they touch lime/mind/pineapple pieces with bare hands... Rooms are OK.

Our family of 4 (kids 4 & 6) really enjoyed our stay at the resort. There was plenty of options for the whole family when it came to pools, food, beaches, and entertainment. The beach and grounds were kept very clean. Most of the action at pool and beach took place at the Colonial, so keep that in mind when booking. There was ample transportation between hotels when needed, and you could even get rides directly to your room if needed. I would recommend the resort to anyone looking for a trip that can please any group. One suggestion when checking in, ask if you have access to the "family selection" as these areas a great for keeping kids entertained.
