Palma Real: Enjoyable resort

Location location location. Sure it’s got some bumps and bruises but it’s safe decent food decent accommodations. Good value for the money. If ur used to top end look elsewhere but if ur down to earth u can have a great time here

Barcelo Solymar: 4 starts room ???

The room was old, few constructions inside, door cracked, lamps doesn’t work etc... For a 4 starts room, I had more expectations. It’s probably an old 4 stars room but not anymore. Need few renovations

Palma Real: Good downtown resort

Overall a good resort, the service was good and we enjoyed our stay. Immediately upon return to Canada my wife became very sick, it was confirmed by our local hospital that she had salmonella. The only place we ate was at the resort and was careful to drink only bottle water supplied by the resort.

Occidental Cozumel: Great Family Trip

Occidental Cozumel is a beautiful and well kept resort. We visited with a large family group (17) and with any large group there were a few hiccups. We did not all get the rooms we requested (ie a family of four with one king bed) but with a bit of negotiating the staff was able to accomodate us (2 cots brought into our room). We found the food to be excellent (if you like Mexican food) and the service at the restaurants to be good. The beach was beautiful but due to wind the water was a bit [... read more] cloudy. We hired a boat for a snorkelling trip through the dive centre attached to the hotel and this was great. We also hired cars through the hotel (not so great as one broke down). Renting jeeps is recommended but I would go with an outfit separate from the hotel as it is expensive and the jeeps were frustratingly in poor condition. Overall I would recommend this resort if you like smaller quieter resorts.

Allegro Playacar: Great resort

The grounds were very well maintained. Plants looked healthy, grass watered. Our hotel room was also very clean and the staff that cleaned were very friendly. We appreciated the two different pools. At times one would be used for games and party so it was nice to have the option of a quiet swim. The buffet had a good selection but lacked consistent hot temperatures. We noticed with the exception of the Mexican reserved dinner (beef tenderloin) that meat tended to be on the chewy si [... read more]de. Themed shows were good.

Occidental Cozumel: A great family experience

A great all inclusive resort to take my Family of 17 to. One of the best we have been to. Lots of activities both at the resort and around the island. Will definitely recommend the resort and Cozumel especially for families.

Occidental Cozumel: Great Family Trip

Great destination, great resort, food was great, staff and service was great! Would definitely recommend this resort and David as your trips organizer! The beach was nice and close to all the rooms, the dive shop outfit that was located on the resort had great guides who were very knowledgeable and took us to some very special snorkeling spots. Thank you from all of us!

Allegro Cozumel: Good reasort

Grounds are very clean and so are the rooms food was very repetitive wish there was more options.they need new cups most where cracked and needed replacement. Staff was quick maid was amazing.people who work in the front desk and buffets/ala carts need to speak better english.pools where clean beach was OK hated that there where cigarettes all over the sand made it hard to have our toddlers playing we had to always sit them in towels.

Occidental Arenas Blancas: Great vacation spot!

We had a great time at the Arenas Blancas. The food was good for Cuba, the staff helpful and friendly and the beach is second to none! The location is one of the main reasons for staying there; it's a short walk to shops and markets and the Beatles Bar and if you want to explore farther you can catch the bus or grab a cab along the way. We had beautiful sunny weather all week. I would totally recommend this resort.

Occidental Tamarindo: Not what I was expecting

Food was the same every night, small selection and to be honest I didn't eat at the resort it was so bad. Even restaurant food was not quality. Mixed drinks were disgusting and not made properly. Beach was very rough (waves and rock) and couldn't swim. Hotel was far from the town of taramindo (30min walk or $5 Cab ride). Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Allegro Cozumel: Absolute paradise!

What can I say but absolutely amazing! Not too big...not too small; set up with rooms on either side of pools in the center is fantastic. Grounds kept immaculately clean and well groomed. Check in fast and although there was a mistake with the room being requested as a ground floor this was rectified immediately. Staff was always cheerful....happy and most accommodating at all times. Food was excellent; no complaints whatsoever. The only thing that I could suggest with this resort would be [... read more] perhaps a cappuccino bar; other than this it is an absolute paradise.

Barcelo Solymar: Barcelo solymar

Enjoyed stay in separate suites away from main part of hotel. Clean and maid service good. Would attend there again. Enjoyed sharing other hotel close to it and being walking distance downtown veradaro. Enjoyed stay would stay in same type of suite a little farther from maid service area though.

Barcelo Solymar: Nice resort. Seen better but seen much worse.

Location is a walk in to Varadero. Service was great, rooms were large and we had a great ocean view. Beach was great. Not enough shade around pools or outdoor restaurants or bars. The hotel staff were all pleasant and very helpful. The rooms were clean and freshly done every day but could not get a fresh beach towel for a week. Otherwise all was good.

Allegro Cozumel: Amazing trip Cozumel Allegro

Beautiful well maintained resort.. staff very helpful and friendly. Ocean front well maintained. A la cartes and buffet very good. Lots of choices for all ages and ethnic tastes. We felt we got our moneys worth and some. One of the best resorts we have been to so far...will definitely be back again.

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: Beautiful Resort!

The rooms are not fancy but extremely clean as well as the whole resort. My sister is Celiac and they were amazing making sure she had her own meal three times a day and she had absolutely no problems. There is something for everyone on this resort and would definitely recommend it to anyone. It was rather windy when we were there so we were unable to snorkel or use any of the beach non motorized equipment but did not have a hard time finding other things to do. My only concern is the way th [... read more]at they do the check in because it was not very efficient. They need to prebook rooms before the night before and speed up check in.

Occidental Cozumel: Beautifully natural and quiet

This is a recently renovated not very big resort with lush vegetation and gardens. Friendly and knowledgeable staff Amazing beach and water with nice clean pools. Well stocked bars. Very good alacart restaurants.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Great vacation

We really enjoyed our vacation at this hotel. The lush grounds and wildlife are what attracted us to this property and we were not disappointed. We saw monkeys, deer, coti, iguanas and more. The hotel is very nice although older has been recently renovated. The restaurants were all delicious and no reservations required for the à la carte. The beach although small (man made cove) is pretty and the waters are calm which makes it perfect to sit and enjoy the water. We also walked the rocky shorel [... read more]ine. The view is stunning. With the bar, restaurant and restrooms nearby we spend most of our time at the beach. We finished our days at the pool going back and forth between the quiet pool with shallow walk in end and the busier livelier pool with swim up bar. The service was great. Everyone is eager to help and very friendly. A little far from the airport but we were closer to all the parks we wanted to visit so the location was great for us.

Occidental Costa Cancun: Good for the money

We found this resort last minute for a cheap price. The resort was clean. The food was good. The beach was small. Only 1 pool. Some of the music played was not appropriate for children. We had a late pick up on our last day (5:25pm) and were told we could not eat or drink past 1pm. We also found the service very lacking on our last day at lunch so we didn't leave a tip at that meal.

Barcelo Bavaro Beach: Lovely resort

The beach was beautiful, the food very good. We ate at the Miramar buffet for most of our breakfasts and lunches. Very nice selection, fruit wonderful and the omelets superb. Our waitress, Analy was marvelous and kept us in champagne every morning. We discovered the Adults Only pool and bar called "El Cielo" with its spouting frogs. Great spot ! The activities were numerous and we participated in Kayaking, yoga, Zumba and games of Rummikub on the rainy days. Lovely holiday, highly recommen [... read more]d the resort

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Disappointed this year!

Had a great stay last year! This year we stayed for 2 weeks. However, the service at the buffet was hit and miss and service at the restaurant beside the pool was terrible. The waiters would rather stand around and talk than look after you!! Specialty restaurants were excellent. I got sick from the food twice. Both times from eating at the buffet. For sure the second time was from eating mussels. Turns out it was also our last night which made for a poor trip flying home!
