Barcelo Maya Colonial: Nice resort for families.

Rooms are nice. But some rooms on main floor have "musty" smell, apparently due to lack of sun, and consequently do not dry properly. Food is good. Beach is nice. Suggest you request a room on third floor, where there is no problem with musty smell. Resort is isolated, 20 km south of Maya del Carmen. We will likely go back, with family (children and grandchildren.

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Excellent resort.

The hotel, rooms and grounds are kept spotless. All three restaurants we went to were very good. Plenty of swimming pools with hot tubs. The beach area some what restrictive with a coarse sand and no opportunity for good walks. However easy to access lounge chairs around pools. Bus service into Puerto Vallarta for 10 pesos taking about 30 minutes. Staff friendly and service top class.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Stunning resort

Barcelo Maya Colonial has it all: beautiful beach & views; clean, spacious & comfortable rooms; stunning colourful gardens & pools; large variety of healthy & well-prepared food; wonderfully warm and friendly staff. Came as a couple for a ‘get away from winter’ retreat - weren’t disappointed - relaxing, enjoyable- totally happy with our choice

Barcelo Maya Colonial: 5 star hotel and beach, 2 star front desk

The grounds are huge and beautiful. Although the resort was near fully booked, there always seemed like lots of space, chairs and privacy. The rooms are so-so, functional but nothing special. Our request for a king size bed was not accommodated, and when we attempted to switch it became a very tiresome and protracted exercise with the front desk, who seemed uninterested in solving the problem. Apparently the supervision or reporting structure is ineffective and their boss is in Spain ! T [... read more]hat experience aside, I would rate everything else highly. The food and drinks are 5 star, the beach and pools are gorgeous, and the specialized restaurants were high quality, especially the Tokyo and Kyoto. There is a water park and bowling alley just off the grounds, which are not free but fun. Lots to do.

Occidental Tamarindo: Amazing

I absolutely love this resort! The location is perfect just a five minute drive to town where you can shop and enjoy beautiful restaurants on the beach. The staff was great and very helpful. This resort is small and very clean. The entertainment was very enjoyable during the day and evening. The buffet restaurant had many very good food choices . Most of all I loved the beautiful beach, the sunset on the beach was amazing!! I will definitely return to this beautiful resort !

Occidental Cozumel: Quiet, and small resort.

The resort is very clean and well kept. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We had a great time as a group, but feel that as two people we might have been a bit bored. The food in the buffet was quite good. The late night pizza was great, but we found the a la carte restaurants a bit lacking- I would steer clear of the beef dishes, as those seemed to be the worst. The wine was not good, and drinks were inconsistent. However, because they are free pouring, just find a bar tender you like [... read more], and go to him. The shows at night were quite good, but day time activities were lacking. Overall, I think it was a nice trip, and would recommend the resort to couples or groups. Children would be bored stiff here.

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Excellent place

The food and hotel staff were amazing and I look forward to returning next year. I loved the a la carte restaurants and we always had chairs in the pool/beach areas. I totally recommend this hotel! Very impressed.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Golf vacation

We went to this hotel to golf for the week. The golf course was great well kept. I would have liked to have a beer other than coots light. The staff we very friendly and attentive. Our room was nice overlooking the golf course. The hotel itself was very large nicely decorated and food was great beach great would recommend this hotel.

Palma Real: Very low quality

I went for my birthday, it was not what I expected. I had never been to Cuba so I was told that the standards are a little lower than North America, but this was way worse than I had expected. It was pretty much the cheapest thing that we could find, so I think in retrospect, spending a few couple hundred dollars more to be in better comfort would have made a lot more sense. There was mould on the walls, the beds were extremely uncomfortable, the Decour was very 70s . From that experience, I do [... read more]n’t I will ever go back to Cuba again. The people were very nice, the workers were always very kind and always happy to help.

Allegro Cozumel: We love Allegro Cozumel!

Lovely resort, well manicured grounds, lovely rooms, great stretch of ocean, friendly staff, nice private lounge for premium guests - would definitely recommend booking premium level. We will be back.

Occidental Cozumel: We love it here!!

Awesome staff! Front office Gabriel is the best. Small resort with a big heart. Beds are very comfortable; clean rooms; large bathrooms. Food delicious, many options. Love the beach-able to snorkel from shore. Entertainment staff are amazing, great shows.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Beautiful resort

Property was beautiful with a lush jungle setting. Loved the ocean pool, food was great, staff phenomenal. Best part was the wildlife. There were some animals in enclosures but there were wild monkeys, coatis, iguanas, agoutis, deer and so many different birds. Perfect for wildlife lovers!

Occidental Nuevo Vallarta: Wonderful vacation

The hotel was located on one of the most beautiful properties I have ever been to. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to make our vacation the most memorable one we ever had. The beaches were clean and free of seaweed which made swimming very enjoyable. Drinks were first class and plentiful. The food was delicious and professionally prepared by well train chefs. Me and my wife will be definitely planning a future vacation at this resort for sure.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Great Resort

Pros Great service overall Great selection of food and drinks Grounds well kept up Plenty of wildlife on site Cons More ashtrays required by adult salt water pool as butts on the ground Our phone did not ring even after mentioning to staff Sea weed arrived last day on site and covered beach and channel

Occidental Nuevo Vallarta: Would definitely go back...

Facility and grounds were very well kept, nice rooms, clean, friendly staff, good food. Pools were clean and water was warm. New hospital directly across the street. Beach..water a little rough each day....not a big deal for us though Rooms....shower doors leaked....not a big deal either...just place a towel on the floor by the door. Close to the airport...20 min drive.

Barcelo Maya Grand Resort: Todd & Alanna Visit Maya Beach Resort

Property is very large which is good for walks. Beach area is large and in a bay. Top notch lane swimming and excellent gym area. Ala Carts are good especially the Tokyo one. Service from staff excellent. The transfers to and from airport was very easy. The resort is about an hour drive from airport

Occidental Arenas Blancas: Great Beach

Although the hotel is older and needs an update, especially in the lobby, the staff was great and the beach was idealistic! We had a fantastic time and made some wonderful memories. We would recommend to anyone looking for a stress free vacation.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Incredible everything

The resort far surpassed our expectations. The buffets have a very wide variety of foods. The 5 a la Carte restaurants were a nice change from eating at the buffets. The entire resort staff did everything possible to ensure our every need was met, and were very friendly. The resort, pools and grounds were kept very clean.

Barcelo Bavaro Palace: Very large resort

Our vacation was great but we wouldn’t go back to this resort. Our room had a number of issues (leaking ceiling, broken mirror, cockroaches) the resort is very large and has something for everyone. I think we just had bad luck with our specific room. No bar on the beach which was different compared to other resorts we’ve been to.
