I should have written this a long time ago, but better late than never... We had a good fortnight in Mexico last year (before Swineflu errupted). The hotel was nicely kept and not particularly busy (I reckon 40-60% full). We had a lovely room on the top floor near the bridge leading to the beach. Food was good with lots... more

I read Stephanie0428 responds to this hotel and I belive me and my wife were sitting at the table next to her during her "Los Olivos experience"...LOL, swear. I am sure of it now, we were there at the same time 8/24 - 8/30 and what I can remember that night she was very up set and stormed out with... more

We booked a trip to Cozumel that was to be from August 26, 2009 to August 30, 2009, staying at the Occidental Grand Cozumel for 4 nights. Let me preface this review by telling you that I have been to Mexico at least 7 previous times at lower star rated hotels, so I know what to expect. I have been... more

I just got back from this all-inclusive resort after a 4 night stay with my husband. I booked the Grand Romance package since it was our 10 year anniversary and first childless trip so I wanted something special added. The resort decor and grounds are absolutley beautiful and charming, I also loved how it was about 15 minutes from town... more

The Occidental Grand is a fabulously beautiful resort. The grounds are kept up beautifully, and you truly are in a tropical paradise. The food was excellent, and the two "reservation" restaurants were first class. ( It is important that you put in your reservations as soon as you arrive if you chose to dine in these restaurants.) We felt very... more

The Scuba Diving is Great. Dive Palancar is the Dive operation on the resort grounds. They have dive boats going out four times a day. It's a five minute boat ride to all the reefs right off shore. You can see all the dive boats come to the area right in front of the resort. The dive masters are friendly,... more

My wife and I spent a week at OG in March 2009 and returned for 11 days in August 2009. Overall it's a great place to stay and we will be going back. Some complaints of the long walks, etc. are true , but you are on vacation... and the grounds you are walking through are absolutely beautiful ! So... more

We have just arrived home from a wonderful holiday in Cozumel. The surroundings are amazing, the rooms were lovely and the A/C worked wonders. The resident iguanas, armadillos, bull frogs, tortoises, geckos were a sight to be seen. The food was basic but nice, the fun club team worked very hard to keep us entertained, which they did very well... more

We came from England and were blown away by Cozumel. The hotel is in an amazing setting with beautiful landscaped, tropical grounds; pools with tame iguanas hanging out (very used to having their picture taken!); nature reserves; and lots of activities to keep children and teenagers occupied whilst we were free to lounge on romatic shaded beds on the beach.... more
