Just got back from a 4 nt stay at the resort. This was our second time at the resort. The last time was in Dec. 2007. The Resort is beautiful, buildings all spread out with a boardwalk over a mangrove to get to the beach. The beach is absolutely gorgeous. There are lots of cabanas on the beach and the... more

Pros: The room was great. Beach was great. Diving/snorkeling was great. The buffet was great. Jungle vegetation is healthy when compared to the pictures on this site. Friendly staff for the most part. Spa is excellent according to my wife. Cons: One bar open at a time. This resort is considerably spread out and the lack of bartenders is a... more

I've just returned from two weeks all inclusive at the Occidental Grand. Weather has been great, beach and sea are a delight, accomodation and grounds are well maintained and there was plenty of wildlife to be seen! can't fault any of these. On the down side, unfortunately on the heels of the swine flu the hotel was understaffed (only one... more

My husband and I returned to the OGC July 7-16th for our wedding on 7/10 and our subsequent honeymoon. It was an excellent stay (this was our 2nd trip there) and the resort is just as beautiful as ever. The staff goes out of its way to make sure guests are happy and all needs are met. There is noticeably... more

A beautiful resort! Very peaceful and tranquil. The buildings are spread out so you do have to some walking to get around, but it's really not bad at all (unless you forget something, like say your driver's lisence :P). Rooms are comfortable, the bed was a bit firm, but that didn't really bother us at all. The shower was awesome,... more

This was our 2nd trip to Cozumel. Our previous trip was 2 years ago and our stay was at another resort just south of Occidental. Likes: The beach was nice and there were plenty of lounge chairs to choose from. Other reviews complained that there was no beachside/poolside servers taking drink orders, but that wasn't the case during our stay.... more

We love Cozumel but this hotel wasn't for us. That being said, we still had some good times. Just because I wouldn't recommend this hotel doesn't mean some out there might think it is great. Read and decide for yourself. I hope the Tips are helpful. We changed rooms twice before we got one that was decent. Why if they... more

We spent a week at the Occidental Grand and loved every minute. Our two teenagers thought it was so good they didn’t want to come home (a first) and are already talking about wanting to go back again asap. The hotel is wonderfully clean, attention to detail was great. We loved the food (and with two fussy teenagers who we... more

My husband and I traveled with two other couples and all stayed in the Royal Club. I am not sure how it is for the non Royal Club, but we found everything from staff to facilities, rooms... to be top notch. Before we arrived on 6/24/09, I read both the good and not so good reviews and really hoped I... more
