Grand Palladium Jamaica/Lady Hamilton Pricing Question


Recommended Posts

 

Hi Ladies! 

 

I've been checking out this site for a while now but this is my first post! I figured since many of you will have already gone through the booking process that this may be the best place to pose my question.

 

My fiance and I are looking for a place in Montego Bay to get married the week of March 23-30, 2013 and we are having a really tough time trying to find a resort for under $1700 which isn't awful. I fell in love with the GPJ and GPLH, and the rates for booking this resort online were very reasonable ($1,700 and under for a week consistently from now until next year). Unfortunately our group rates that we have been quoted are AWFUL. Toronto to Montego Bay for a week has ranged from $2,299 to $2,422 for the week we are looking at. I'm really at a point where I'm not sure what to do next with this, as we don't have flexibility for changing the dates. What I'd like to know is:

 

- did anyone have better luck with pricing having their guests book online?

 

- did anyone find the group rates dropped closer to their wedding (ie - 6 months or less before)?

 

- If I'm totally out of my price point with thinking this hotel could ever be under $1,700 are there any other nice hotels which could be suggested within this price point?

 

Thanks so much!!

I also have been having the same problem, I have chosen the GPLH, booked the date and have started on small things like flowers, etc..  I have been working close with my travel agent and we are now starting to see the prices drop more, we also will be flying from toronto and the last price that recieved was $1745.  We however chose Jan 30, 2013 as we were told that the prices are slightly cheaper than in march; I have been told not to worry as the prices will slowly start to drop.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
