Nov 06, 2026Great resort, loud neighbours
The resort was great, good amenities, staff is friendly. My only bad thing I can say is that my room’s walls were thin and for 4 nights the people next door were loud, so loud it was like they were in the room with me, until 2-4 am. Still a great place to go.

Great trip!
We are a couple who was looking for a mini getaway for four nights. This place was in our budget. We read some reviews and thought we’d make our own review after staying. Our wants were: nice beach, decent rooms and fun pools. This place had all that we wanted! It’s about half hour from the airport. We booked shared transportation which worked out well! Check in was a bit slow but nothing crazy. The beach is beautiful! Nice and clean, lots of lounge chairs, lots of shade if needed. The waves were strong but a lot of fun. The rooms could definitely use some updating but the bed and pillows were really comfortable! We didn’t spend a ton of time in the rooms anyway. Shower and toilet worked fine! Huge bath towels! Room was cleaned everyday. We left a tip everyday and asked for beer in our fridge. Ice maker didn’t work on our floor or the floor below us which was a bit of an inconvenience. A couple of nights it was loud around 1:00, 2:00 in the morning. We had a room facing the main pool so maybe people were hanging out there? Bring earplugs! The entertainment at the main pool was fun! Yoga, bingo, water aerobics, games. But sometimes we wanted some down time so we’d go to the other pool which was much quieter. It was great that you could choose…do you want loud ? Or a bit quieter? It’s up to you! Pools were clean. Towels were available at a couple of booths. At this time of year there were a lot of lounge chairs available at all times of the day. Food…reminded me of the food in Cuba. Not spectacular. But that wasn’t a big deal for me as other things were more important. You have to be creative with the food. The omelette stations were very good. Pasta station was good too! I would get croissants and make my own sandwiches. They had a sandwich press…people were making ham and cheese sandwiches! Throw some stewed tomatos and chicken on the pasta. Delish! The pizzeria was good! Very tasty. Burgers were ok…go to the salad bar and add a bunch of fixings onto your burger! Their jalapeños were delicious! We went to the Mexican restaurant and the Japanese. Mexican was so-so. The Japanese (teppanyaki) was great! A large portion of tasty food! On the Friday, so many people checked in!! Not sure if they were locals just there for the weekend but it was a bit crazy. Buffet was packed, huge line up at breakfast, pool was busy! The staff were great! Casino…they are independent and are not part of the hotel. Maybe 8 slot machines and a table ($10 US minimum). You have to buy your own drinks in there and the employees do not speak any English. Smells like a sewer in there. There are shows in the outdoor theatre every night. The show we watched was ok. And there’s also a disco. We never went. Overall we really enjoyed our time and we would go back again. We came knowing that this isn’t a five star hotel so we weren’t expecting five star standards. We got great value which was important to us. I can understand that this hotel isn’t for everyone but I believe it’s all about your own expectations!

Oct 21, 2026Excellent stay at Occidental Caribe
I had a wonderful experience at Occidental Caribe! The resort is beautiful, with stunning beach views, clean surroundings, and a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. The food had a good variety, the pools were great, and the beach was absolutely beautiful. There were plenty of activities to enjoy, making the stay even more memorable. Overall, it was a fantastic vacation, and I would definitely recommend Occidental Caribe to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. I would love to come back again! 🌴☀️🏖️

*Motorized watersports may be banned
*Non-motorized water sports may be limited, or banned
*Alcohol consumption may be restricted (most resorts obtain a special permit which enables them to serve alcohol to nonnative persons during the ban)
*Music may be limited or silencedThese guidelines are currently vague because actual enforcement by the local government does vary greatly from one year to the next. Each year the actual policies are not published by the local authorities until just prior to Easter. These rules are designed for the safety of everyone, as beaches get extremely busy during this period.
