Did you know that the friendliness of the Mexican people is among the highest in the world? Everywhere you go someone will be there willing to lend a helping hand

Juan Wow I was surprised it does show Uruguay so there must be others who visit here from your country.
I don’t want to be judgemental but I feel it is unfortunate that some ladies push the limit with very short ragged jean short shorts and men are pushing the limit with sloppy carge pants. It is possilbe to be casual without being sloppy.
Here is the Akumal webcam. The Palladium webcam is blurry.
Akumal webcamYes there was a very rude (intoxicated) person yelling that he wanted more alcohol. V just kept pouring!
Great report Lindsay! I feel like you as soon as it’s getting close to leaving “home”. SO Sad.
I agree the food has been “streamlined” but quality seems better. My daughter loves the food at Punta Emilia for lunch.
ValenTin is great. Always remembers people and what their preferences are. Always smiling. I once saw a person “yelling” at Valentin for more alcohol and he handled it professionally never losing his smile. I wanted to yell back at that guest.
THANKS FOR SHARING! Any plans to return?
We are fine.Cold rain today but at least I don’t have to shovel! My daughter tells me New York is shutting down.
Thanks for doing that Brenda. If anyone has any suggestions/additions please post. This list can be downloaded.
Brazilian food porn for carnivores…chicken, sausage, pork, beef filet, vegetables (for omnivores), more beef, lamb, pineapple (darn omnivores), filet mignon, and more pork. All this served by one of my first Palladium friends, Ysabela, who I met in 2011. And of course, a little dessert.
Re dress code Brian says:So I have been here 4 days now. And it appears that any kind of shorts are being allowed. I have seen jean, cargo, dress, and regular khaki. I have wore pants every night because it has been somewhat cool. But if you are confused on what exactly you need it doesn’t look like it matters. This is the RM location.
Spa day..and boy did I need a haircut. And then, I ran into the wedding coordinator. Carolina was checking up on her bride who was getting her hair done.
Ah thanks Blueskies. I though it was some kind of tweetng.
Peter posted some food pics; snapper, mignon & scallops
It’s hard to say.Usually weekends are busiest in terms of people coming and going but maybe the fact that your dauhter arrives at night will make it less busy.
It can also vary from hour to hour. My daughter and I arrived on Wednesday in December. She arrived an hour ahead of me and had a longer wait as two other planes came in at the same time. I arrived with no other planes and was outside the airport in 20 minutes.
Dinner at the Japanese restaurant. This is the seshian shrimp. Very good. Some guys got in wearing cargo shorts ?
Peter says: “Who’s a dirty monkey? Obviously I am. After twerking on the beach with some of the animation team, I require refreshment. A dirty money!!!”
From Lyndsey: “Again, another lovely day in paradise. I need to remember to rotate as now only my right side has color lol I just get so into my book I don’t remember ☺ back in the room to get ready for dinner. Thinking of going to the Japanese restaurant. We’ve had 2 phone calls. One asking if everything was good and if we had any complaints (of course not ?). Second, to ask if we needed anything. Very good customer service. Ttfn ?”

Akumal webcamLyndsey on food: “We’ve had nothing but great food so far. I did see the difference in the dinner buffet last night but nothing we still couldn’t find that suited us. Be open to new things and relax, you’re on vacation “
Peter reports,”Just had an amazing dinner at Le Chanterelle. Carol had warm goat cheese with nuts and I had the Bouillabaisse soup. Then we shared Chateau Briand for two. As good as the food was, seeing all our friends again was amazing. I will make a concerted effort to take food pictures…for all you food porn addicts.”
Anne: Yum!!
Lindsey reports:”Had our first full day. Weather was gorgeous. 29 Celsius so I’m guessing upper 80’s Fahrenheit? Either way it was lovely. Spent most of the day at the beach. They had the seaweed cleaned up by the time we got there (10am). The tide is higher than last year. Fajitas at punta Emilia snack bar are delicious as usual. I see they added more seating there and the plates are actual plates. Then we went to the colonial pool for a few hours. Bryan played volleyball with some people from Argentina. Now cleaned up and ready to watch our Packers in the sports bar. It’s really quiet here today. Lots of chairs still available at the beach and pool. In the past we use to get to the beach by 6am to lay towels out to get chairs”
Lyndsey reports it was sunny & 86 degrees.
Last night she had a visit with Valentin who remembered her.
Thank you to all here and on FB for my birthday wishes. I am blessed to have so many friends tohelpmelive vicariously!Hopeto see some of you overthe next year at the P.

My wonderful neighbors made me dinner and a cake. I made them erase the # on the cake!!!
I was hoping I’d win the lottery last night and then everyone would be my guest at the P!
When you send in a room request (a week or less before you go) mention that this is your 2nd visit. You may get a room upgrade (no guarantees as it depends on availability), fruit basket or other acknowledgment.
My daughter loved Vallarta. Have a fabulous time.
Welcome. They do try to honor repeat guests but nothing is guaranteed.How many times have you been to a Palladium and which Palladium are you visiting?

We really look forward to hearing about your experience with Brian, his exprience with food (I wouldn’t worry) and the kids club. Great staff there so hopefully he’ll give it a chance. Happy for you.
How exciting to share Paradise with Brian. I’d go with a Colonial Jr Suite. Ask for bldg 20 or 21 as those are super locations.Probably ground floor. Sofa beds are new. Happy for you!!
Here is the Royal Suites Room Service menu
https://unofficialpalladium.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Menu-2.pdfWelcome Springer, I have this email address.
reservations@palladiumtravelclub.comI know with non-members rooms are not assigned until it is close to arrival dates. In the hospitality industry things change frequently so it may be that they do not assign TC rooms until it is closer to your dates.
I LOVE the Kantenah MS! Have fun.
There is a newish undergound Bano near the international shops at the south end.
Ha ha my daughter got the line,”I give discounts to beautiful girls. For you it is free.”

I have spoken via email to the sports bar manager.He is waiting for a new menu to be printed. Should be similar.
