Staff all lovely but some strange policies and pricing
My wife and our five month old son and myself have just spent a week here and have quite a lot to review. First off, the staff in restaurants were wonderful. Special mentions to Roman and Julio in the snack bar. The rooms were kept immaculately. There was a man playing the keyboard and singing in the evening who was really talented. However, when we arrived we offered our “welcome present” and almost coerced into taking a meeting about a time share or “vacation club” within an hour of arrival. It is not fair to jump onto paying guests who have potential just travelled a long way. We were asked to go for a meeting over breakfast the next morning to discuss it, and was even asked to pay a deposit. This is where we pulled out. On arrival our suitcases took 3 hours to get to our room. I’m not sure if this was a miscommunication but with the baby this was not ideal. When we asked guest services if we could have extra bottled water and to clean and sterilise baby bottles, we were told to order some in or get a taxi to a supermarket. I feel more could have been done to support our request here. Finally the pharmacy has some of the most ludicrous prices I’ve ever seen. Because it’s an all inclusive I guess they feel the need to increase all chargeables but nappies for 17usd and tampons for around 8usd is unforgivable.

Amazing. Again you need to just sit back and let everyone just take care of you. We keep returning because we are family
Another great experience at Occidental. Got to see all the family. Everything and everyone was doing well. The staff from the bottom to the top always takes good care of us.

Beautiful Resort
The property was beautiful and the amount of roaming animals was fun to see! It’s a big resort with a lot of walking to get places. Do not attend the time share thing. It’s a waste of time and even if you bought into it you still pay what you would if you booked the trip on Expedia or more. Overall the resort is nice and very cool with all the roaming animals
