The resort is absolutely beautiful! The beach was so amazing. Pools were great too. Food was decent. Hard to get dinner reservations to the restaurants and service was slow. Rooms were always clean and well stocked. We had a butler we could text any time and they would be so helpful. Overall, great trip

We love coming to the Riviera Maya, but we have never been before to this resort. We stated at FS at Kantenah w two kids ages 9 and 5. We stayed at building 50 and loved the location. Close to the beach and across the FS pool and buffets The resort is stunning. Located within the jungle and mangroves, wildlife is everywhere, and our kids loooved it. We counted over 100 iguanas, saw a snake, agoutis, coatis and a basilisk lizard. Service is just out of this world, everywhere. From the people taking care of the grounds to the Buttler team. Daniela, Guillermo and Rogelio made our stay the most special. They were so helpful. Our kids got sick and helped us get the dr to the room, let us know when medication was ready, make sure that we had all we needed in the room all the time, informed us about the entertainment every day and surprised our kids with spectacular balloon art one night when we came back to the room. Lizbeth at the FS pool is the kindest, hard working and attentive waitress. Always making sure people were happy and served. Our days in the pool were always brightened by her service. Fernanda the FS manager is a star. Always checking around, making sure all is going well, helping tidy the areas, talking to customers, really made a difference to see a Manager so involved and caring. Room was perfect. So clean. After this, it will be hard to match. Absolutely a great week.

Great view, walking distance to the beach, great service. Abraham, our butler, was great. Very attentive and took care of the little details so I could relax. My only feedback was the ants in our room ruined room service and the buffets during the day weren’t great.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Family Selection at Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! Food: The dining options were incredible. Every meal we had was delicious, with a wide variety of cuisines to choose from. Whether we were enjoying an elegant dinner or grabbing a quick bite by the pool, the food never disappointed. The quality of the ingredients was top-notch, and the flavors were always fresh and vibrant. Amenities: The resort offers a wide array of amenities that kept our family entertained throughout the stay. From the pristine pools to the amazing spa, we always found something enjoyable to do. The Family Selection area had its own dedicated services and spaces, which made the experience feel even more special and exclusive. Cleanliness: The property was impeccably clean. The staff worked hard to maintain the beauty of the grounds, and it really showed. Everything was always in great condition, and the attention to detail was clear in both public and private spaces. Service: The service here was exceptional. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, professional, and eager to help. From check-in to check-out, we felt well taken care of, and the team went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay. Overall, we had a wonderful time at the Family Selection at Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa. It’s the perfect getaway for families looking for a luxurious, yet laid

The staff at this resort is incredible! Abraham, our butler, made our stay unforgettable, handling everything from restaurant bookings to fixing issues. He even packed us lunch for the airport, which was a lifesaver since Cancun Airport is extremely expensive. Paris and Aaron were also amazing. Rosalia, Azansion, Marcelino (best crepes!), Filamena, and Sabelina provided top-tier service at the restaurants—please tip them! The resort itself is stunning, with beautifully kept grounds and amazing wildlife. We saw monkeys, iguanas, coatis, and agoutis—but please don’t feed them! Walking the bridges felt magical, though carts ran every 10 minutes if needed. La Hacienda buffet was our favorite—delicious grilled meats, fried rice, and risotto. The White Sand buffet was great for breakfast. We tried several restaurants: Italian, Japanese, and Thai, but the buffet was best. Coffee was hit or miss, but the in-room machine was great. The entertainment was fantastic—Silent Party, White Party, and a Mardi Gras beach party with live music. The pools were fun, and snorkeling was good when the water was calm. We booked VIP Transfer (Lummus Transport)—great service.
