"The Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort and Spa lives up to its name -- it's a large, upscale, all-inclusive resort with multiple pools, numerous restaurants, bars, and even its own shopping areas." Full review
Star Service
"A 40-minute shuttle from the airport, 30 kilometers west of Montego Bay's airfield, this is the better of the two Palladium resorts that share the same vast tract of land on Jamaica's north shore." Full review

Because both resorts also share the same dining facilities, bars, pools, beach and spa, what makes this resort the one to choose is location, location, location—oh, and sibling Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort lacks one room category: Honeymoon Bungalows.
