Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Wedding Review
1. Hotel Overview
★★★★★ | FAMILY-FRIENDLY | LUXURY
The Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa is nestled along Jamaica’s scenic northern coast.
It offers a sprawling oasis for couples seeking a mix of relaxation and adventure.
With an impressive array of amenities and an all-inclusive setup, your guests will love this resort.
You’ll find a variety of accommodations, from spacious suites to luxurious villas, many of which provide stunning ocean views.
And when it comes to activities, you’ll be spoiled for choice!
From plenty of pools and a private beach to water sports like snorkeling and kayaking, there’s never a dull moment.
Dining options are abundant, with multiple restaurants serving diverse cuisines, from local Jamaican flavors to international dishes.
But, we feel like the sheer size of the resort can mean longer walks to amenities, and at times, the service might feel a bit stretched thin.
All in all, the resort is the perfect mix of relaxation, entertainment, and tropical vibes against Jamaica’s breathtaking backdrop.
