Gather the whole family for a stay to remember at one of Grand Palladium’s Select Collection resorts.
Grand Palladium’s Select Collection resorts are the peak of family-friendly luxury, with standout properties in the Dominican Republic and Mexico. Spanning four global destinations, this collection redefines the premium travel experience through a blend of spectacular settings and first-class services.

Grand Palladium Select Bávaro
Set on the legendary white sands of Playa Bávaro, Dominican Republic, the Grand Palladium Select Bávaro embodies the elevated standards of the brand’s Select Collection. Opening in late 2025, this fully renovated resort effortlessly pairs its stunning Caribbean beachfront location with high-end amenities for the best of both luxury and laidback leisure.
Looking for a relaxing getaway? You and the whole family can swim in sparkling pools and suntan on an exclusive sandy shoreline from dawn to dusk. More of a foodie? Indulge in a taste of the world at the 14 onsite restaurants, sampling everything from gourmet Spanish tapas to authentic Japanese sushi to Indian curries. Or maybe you’re hoping to tuck the little ones into bed, then party the night away, trying your luck in the casino or dancing into the early hours of the morning in the buzzing nightclub.
Grand Palladium Select White Sand
The new Grand Palladium Select White Sand (opening January 2026) is a dream location for a family vacation. Nestled on a stunning private beach in Mexico’s Riviera Maya, the location is already a picture-perfect start. Add the thoughtfully designed rooms to the mix—complete with memory foam mattresses, hydromassage bathtubs, and space for up to four guests (depending on the room)—and you’ve got an incredible foundation for a family vacation to remember.
As for what to see and do, well, you’re in luck, as the Grand Palladium Select White Sand has a whole slew of options. If you’re looking to slow down, you’ll have plenty of space to relax—you can spend a quiet afternoon in one of the oceanfront pools, book time at the full-service spa, or simply stroll along the gorgeous shoreline. For guests who like to keep moving, the resort’s location offers easy access to the region’s famous cenotes and ancient Mayan sites. Plus, don’t miss out on the seemingly endless dining opportunities, with the resort’s collection of specialty restaurants dedicated to specific global cuisines.


Grand Palladium Select Costa Mujeres
Step into a world of sophisticated design at the Grand Palladium Select Costa Mujeres. Set on the tranquil Costa Mujeres coast, this property is famous for its unique layout: a central village of gourmet restaurants and shops connected by innovative, navigable canals that you can explore by boat.
More than just a place to relax, this Grand Palladium hotel is filled with ways to stay entertained. Sharpen your game at the on-site Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre, or dedicate an evening to high-energy entertainment at the spectacular Chic Cabaret & Restaurant dinner show. Swim in oceanfront pools for hours on end, or send your little ones off for a day of fun at the Mini Club. However you and your family choose to vacation, you’ll be in for some unforgettable experiences.
