Family Hotels & Resorts in Playa Grande from AU$92

"The Palace is outdated, the decor of the rooms and the lobby is awful. Renovation is scheduled for August. The grounds are well maintained, pool area clean and the restaurants are kept clean. The workers are all very friendly and there to make the guests very comfortable. Servers and bartenders are helpful and nice. Entertainment staff is great, energetic and fun. We did a river cruise, which was fun. We saw a lot of alligators and monkeys, although we saw more monkeys next to the hotel. Take a stroll to the left on the beach to where the sign for the Monkey bar is. Walk into the jungle, there are a lot of white faced monkeys there. We wanted to go snorkeling, they try to sell you the catamaran cruise, includes alcohol and fruit, but who needs that when you're staying at an all inclusive? We ended up on a 3 hour snorkeling tour, but visibility was bad. Overall, the hotel is comfortable, the food incredible and lots of fun for no longer than a week."

"The pools were nice and not overly crowded, most staff were decent, although they were severely understaffed which I think caused some of them to be rude. The towels in the room were old and had a smell to them, the toilet always smelled like the gasket wasn’t installed properly or something. I’d rate the food quality maybe at like a 2-3 and availability pretty low they ran out of stuff kind of often. The restaurants were also just buffets and not that great. A lot of the food wasn’t labelled at all so if you have allergies it’s hard to tell if you can eat some of it. Lastly everyone on our trip got sick either on the second last day or the last day and a few are still sick at the time of writing this 5 days after leaving. All in all go somewhere else. "

"One of the mattresses on the beds in our room was broken down, actually making it difficult to not fall off! Also the AC was a little weak. Aside from that, the hotel was just fine. The poolside room was nice!"

"The property grounds are beautiful. The staff are extremely kind and helpful. You are in a garden in the middle of town without feeling like you are in town. The rooms are cold and comfortable. The breakfast food was great and the drinks are delicious! We got married at the Diria and it was everything we wanted and more!! "
