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.

Barcelo Puerto Vallarta: Beautiful resort

Grounds cleAn well kept again beautiful .Food ...room for inprovement .Plan on going back . People we dealt with were curtious an friendly .Enjoyed the compact of the resort not running around for hours to find whats needed its all there .Really enjoyed it .Would an will recomment to friends.

Occidental Cozumel: great holiday

we were celebrating our 45th anniversary and had a really good time. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was very clean and well maintained and the food was very good. People always talk about the liquor being watered down at all - inclusives but I had a few straight shots while we were there and they were not watered down. The pool was nice and the beach was beautiful and well looked after. We went to all three a la carte restaurants during our stay and had three excellent meals. We  [... read more]asked to change rooms after the first night because we were right beside the entertainment that went til 1:30 am and they were very nice about it, moving us to a quieter area. It was mostly couples staying at the resort, with a few larger groups who were a little boisterous, but no bad behaviour.

Barcelo Maya Grand Resort: One of the best resort out there

I think it was the best week I’ve ever had in my entire life the food was amazing the rooms were awesome with the most beautiful view you can ever had and best of all the people so amazing with you by doing what ever they can to help and make as comfortable as you can be... by far one of the best resorts I’ve ever been to

Occidental Punta Cana: Nice resort

The hotel was nice the grounds were nice and clean and tidy the staff are very friendly the beach is amazing the food was good also breakfast was amazing ala carte were okay The only problem I thought was that the front lobby bar close too early should stay open a little bit later 11 is too early

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Amazing Resort

Very clean and well maintained resort. Food was excellent and you never had to wait for anything as there was plenty of staff working to make sure all food trays were always full. Large selection to choose from. We had breakfast at the buffet daily and found so much variety. Something for everyone. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Plenty of beach and pool chairs. You didn’t need to go early to secure a spot. All and all it was a very enjoyable experience as this was our first time [... read more] at a Barceló Resort. We highly recommend it and will be returning. I travelled with my husband and another couple for 1 wk at the beginning of February.

Palma Real: Amazing vacation!

Although Palma Real is dated and needs upgrades in the area of plumbing, electrical and of the quiet pool, we enjoyed our stay immensely. There was maple bacon at breakfast every day and seafood at lunch and dinner every day. The location is unbeatable and the staff amazing, especially Moses, Natalie and Ever. We will be back!

Barcelo Huatulco: Huatalco 2019

Barcelo is a great vacation resort. Second time here and it was great. Staff is amazing. Always willing to accommodate most times. I had asked the front desk if I could have an additional mattress cover or some additional blankets for my bed in order to increase the comfort of the bed. (too hard for me) they said they couldn't help with that. I did find that unusual. This year we felt the food wasn't as tasty as in the past. Beach and pool were terrific. Premium Level was gre [... read more]at. Would recommend it. Check in and out was quick. Great Sunwing staff.

Barcelo Solymar: Nice place

Great place. Get access to 2 resorts. Excellent beach! Very cloae ro downtown Varadero. Free acces to palma real to go to the havana club and party all night with lots of people. Close to the Beatles bar and Cali 62. Cheers!

Palma Real: Horrible!

I really don’t have anything good to say about this resort. The first room I got was in building #2 and the hallway ceilings are covered in black mould. In fact the entire place is covered in mold. The safe didn’t even have a door on it. Half the lights in the room don’t work and the beds are as old. Once all 6 of us weren’t happy with our rooms we all got upgraded to suits in building #1. These rooms were better although still no working safe and the room was dirty. The maid really didn [... read more]’t do much. There were still socks from a previous traveler under the bed. The bathroom never got cleaned. She replaced my towels for 2 small hand towels and that’s what I had to shower with for the remainder of the week. The fridge was never stocked with anything. The resort itself just looks worn down. Tiles are cracked or missing and door frames are all cracked and prevent doors from opening all the way. Snack bar was lame, the buffet was plain nothing special.

Palma Real: Great staff!

The resort itself is very old and needs work. Our first rooms weren’t good, doors didn’t close properly, holes in walls etc. But we were upgraded to a suite which was great and had zero problems. The staff is amazing and always ready to help make the stay great. The food was much better this time than when I went two years ago. 10/10 would visit again

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Very Good Beach!!

The grounds were kept very clean. The variety of food was great as you had 4 different Barcelo hotel areas to choose from. The beach area was very large to walk, no worries with towels or lounge chairs. The room well, less désirable. Good guest services to help out!!

Barcelo Solymar: 6th time here!!

We love this hotel. Will never stay anywhere else. Food is fantastic, staff are all great and the bungalows are awesome!!! The pools are clean, drinks are great and we love the beach!! Can’t wait for our next visit already booked for April!!

Palma Real: A resort that needs repair

We had been there 7 years ago and it was very good. Not luxurious but very good for a downtown hotel. This hotel has clearly lacked input over the years. There is dirt and moldings everywhere. It is very damaged and it clearly lacks maintenance. The pool is very damaged too. It is a shame because it was a very nice hotel many years ago.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Absolutely amazing

We had a terrific time the grounds were very well maintained, our rooms were gorgeous and the staff went over and beyond to serve us well The food was awesome so many to choose from and of course the entertainment was super cool to watch we will definately go back thanks for great vacation Oh Transat was also awesome their service at airport and on plane was tremendous thanks again
