This was my first visit to this resort the staff were very helpful and very friendly. We enjoyed the pool and beach every day we were there. Lots to do for the family that wants activities close. The only bad thing I have to say about our stay is that we only had one day of hot water in our shower even after having maintenance come look at it.

Bedspread was dirty upon check in. No beach access except the small bay. It is much, much smaller than it looks in pictures. It is NOT all-inclusive. Coffees are extra. Lobster is extra. There are beach chairs, but not enough. And only "club" members are allowed to use 3/4 of the chairs. There are several restaurants, reservation only. You reserve the day before, but not more than 2 days. The restaurants were usually all booked during our 8 night stay. The food at the restaurants was pretty terrible except the oriental. The steakhouse was the worst. The steak had the texture of a kitchen sponge.

Clean room. Amazing staff. This was my 4th stay at this resort and will not be my last. Calm, quiet and not crowded. The monkeys did not disappoint as usual. Much better experience than our last stay and even that wasn't horrible, just a lack of golf carts throughout the day. This trip was every 10 minutes or less so a great improvement. All areas were very clean and well maintained.

Overall our stay at Occidental was pretty good for our first all inclusive experience. There were a few aspects that we noticed that needed some maintenance i.e. lounge chairs by the beach that needed repair, some areas of the resort having a smell and some cups and other rubbish being left around the property for a couple of days. The rooms felt a little dated and the showers didn't maintain a constant temperature/pressure. The staff were wonderful and provided great service at all dining locations and throughout the resort. The shows provided plenty of variety for all ages. As non smokers we found it difficult with a number of other guests smoking at various locations through the property despite there being locations for smoking and having our neighbors smoke on their balcony stopped us from enjoying ours. In a resort that large we thought it could be possible to separate smokers and non smokers. Also being from Australia where tipping is not common we were confused about the process. The stay indicated that tips were included however it appeared to be customary across the resort. While these things detracted a little from our stay overall we are happy and would consider returning or visiting other Barcelo resorts.

We booked three rooms, and unfortunately, all of them had issues. While the thermostats were adjustable, they didn’t actually function; it was either freezing or we had to turn the air off entirely. In two of the rooms, the TVs didn't work, and in the third, the toilet was leaking. We were also disappointed that our group was separated. Two of us were placed in Building 10, which was far from ideal. We could hear everything—the nightly entertainment and the boats on the river—so it didn't feel secluded or peaceful at all. Additionally, one of our rooms lacked a balcony. The dining experience was another low point. One person in our group of seven got food poisoning. The reservation system for the a la carte restaurants is frustrating, and the food quality was questionable; even at the steakhouse, our waiter was rude and seemed frustrated by simple requests. Furthermore, getting a spot at the beach was a struggle, requiring us to be out by 7:00 AM just to secure a chair. Overall, the stay was decent because we loved the animals and the beach itself, but the room maintenance and service left a lot to be desired.
