I stayed in this hotel in May 2007 as my first ever all-inclucive vacation, with my boyfriend. It is a beautiful hotel with lots of trees and greenery. There were lots of other young couples there. All of the rooms are fairly close to the beach, bar service was great, as the week progressed, there was more alcohol in the... More

My wife and I booked a trip through Skyauction to Occidental Gran. After booking it we did more research and started to get discouraged by all the negative reviews and some of the pictures that'd been posted (like close ups of rust spots, or cracked floors, etc). So that served to lower our expectations, but we determined to make the... More

I have just arrived back from a week in at the Occidental Playa Dorada and I was extremely dissapointed in the hotel accomodation, the food, the service and the majority of the staff. On arrival, I was told that we were given rooms in the newest and nicest part of the hotel!!! When we got to the room, it smelt... More

I came back from this resort two weeks ago and I enjoy every moment of it... I was in buliding 26 near the beach and I had a good time......The club was great and the food was good too.. This is nice resort.....I wish I wasn't with my woman.. I would have had a blast... but I did anyway.....

I want to say that it was not a good time. The service provided by the hotel was not good. Furthermore, we parked our car in the hotel and the next day the car had a problem. The hotel responsed to this was: that the responsabilty belongs to the customer and not to the hotel even though it was parked... More

This April i traveled to the Dominican with my three friends and two of their mothers. When we first arrived in Puerto Plata, it wasnt a long ride to the airport, which was good because the taxi was sweaty and nasty. It was interesting to see the city, though, and there were some nice views of the country. When we... More

My husband and I stayed a week at this resort. Usually we go for 2 weeks but we are really glad we only stayed for one. We went with 4 other couples so all in all we had a good time. It only rained for 1 full day but we were told that it hadn't stopped raining for 2 weeks... More
