It's time to grab some sunscreen and your favorite swimsuit, because the island
breeze is callin', mon! The all inclusive Occidental Grand Nuevo Vallarta rests
on the beaches of Nuevo Vallarta, where supple sands lie awash with the warm
azure waves of the Pacific. If keeping the whole family happy at the same time
seems an impossible task, think again. There's something for all ages here,
from the children's pool and a kids' club with fun activities for ages 4-12 to
massages on the beach for Mom and Dad.

Great value
My 17 year daughter and I spent 6 days at the resort. We were greeted after getting through customs by timeshare people who said they were our representatives but they were not but kept us there for 1 hr trying to sell trips in lieu of time share appointments and telling us we had to stay there as they were waiting for other families to arrive for the shuttle bus to leave - this was not true and kept us back when we could of been at the resort well before the time we eventually arrived. When we arrived at the Hotel the reps were quite pushy about selling trips and having timeshare appts also and there we were again being kept back from beginning our vacation, the continued to call our room to make sure we attended time share opportunities which was not welcome - we just wanted to relax away from a phone ringing! - we are now wiser! However, we did enjoy our stay and the beach and food was nice - waves can be a bit aggressive so be careful as we saw many a person getting swamped! Downside was there was no enterainment after 10pm - the outside bar stays open but there is not alot else to do. You have to leave the resort to enjoy nightlife which we did do once but out of our comfort zone as we did not know the area and you fall pray to timeshare people and dodgy police! - so we would of liked to see more on the resort to do at night. Staff were friendly, sandy beach nice, rooms clean, child friendly,food readily available whenever you are hungry. Although they tell you you can drink the water - which I did alot i did return with a upset tummy which is ongoing! I would return to the resort but will be wiser about the time share vultures and the water!
Outdated in need of repair. Food at buffett & Mexican restaurant was not very good especially dinner at the buffett. Entertainment is not very good. Mini fridge ia laughable with two beers, two soft drinks & four bottles of water. One paclket of coffee, really? No line on the clothes line in the shower. Restaurants open on alternate nights and service there was as bad as the wines they serve. No free Wi-fi, really? Good things: the staff at the reception and concierge desks.
To sum it up, it was a great week in a nice hotel with a very friendly / helpful staff. I'd go again.
Favorite: The area is friendly. You don't have to be locked in a resort. Jump in a cab and go explore. Malecon area was fun.
Second Fav: The staff of the hotel was excellent. You did run into a bit of the time-share stuff, but they understood after after 2 or 3 "no thank yous" to let you be the remainder of the trip.
Pros: buffet is actually really good (fresh fruit, hot grill, etc.), great bar staff, plenty of beach chairs, small mall/store area across the road, direct bus or taxi to downtown/malecon Puerto Vallarta.
Cons: No real cons, just preferences. I like a swim-up bar. However, their setup allows you to walk 10 ft, grab a drink and step back in. The water/sand is not carribean blue/white in winter, however the waves were bigger and fun to play in.

Hotel Description
Occidental Grand Nuevo Vallarta: Experience Family Luxury
It's time to grab some sunscreen and your favorite swimsuit, because the island
breeze is callin', mon! The all inclusive Occidental Grand Nuevo Vallarta rests
on the beaches of Nuevo Vallarta, where supple sands lie awash with the warm
azure waves of the Pacific. If keeping the whole family happy at the same time
seems an impossible task, think again. There's something for all ages here,
from the children's pool and a kids' club with fun activities for ages 4-12 to
massages on the beach for Mom and Dad.
The calm waters off the beach at Occidental are especially great for kids.
Parents can relax in their complimentary loungers while the little tykes frolic
in the mellow surf. Resort-side, the same kind of chill awaits without the
sand. A sizable adult pool comes complete with chaise loungers and cushy
towels, and one kids' pool guarantees that the cannonballs can stay where they
belong.
While Le Buffet restaurant and some persistent snacking will see you
comfortably through the day, robust Italian fare at Los Olivos and classic
Mexican spices at La Hacienda will salsa your taste buds right up to bed time.
Not ready to snooze just yet? Indulge in the silky sounds of a late-night
cocktail hour at the Piano Bar, or imbibe your way into the wee hours of the
morning at the Beach Club Bar.
If you're feeling the athletic itch, vie for match point day or night on the
resort's on-site, lighted tennis court. Or, pump some iron at the fitness
center. For water-bound fun, try your hand at water polo, or snag a sea kayak
to paddle your way to peace and quiet.
After a long day of relax-cationing, head back to your luxurious Deluxe
Ocean View room to rest up for tomorrow's adventures. Looking for some grown-up
alone time? Drop the kids off at the complimentary kids' club and make the
short trip to the Vista Vallarta Golf Club. There you can take a swing at two
18-hole, par 72 golf courses, one designed by golf legend Jack Nicklaus and the
other designed by Tom Weiskopf, winner of 16 PGA Tour events.
