We had to switch room 4 times. The first one, the door wouldn’t close or lock. Second one, after much arguing, my wife’s bathing suit was stolen. We paid an additional $65 a day to upgrade room locations, only to end up with 2 small beds. Finally, 4 days before leaving, they gave us a suite, with still additional charges. I am supposed to ask Expedia for a refund for the transport service charge because we ended up booking a private driver.

The rooms were clean and tidy. The staff was all great and the hotel seemed to be always cleaning and making small renovations and sprucing up. The al acart restaurant were all really good. I would give the overall food a 8/10. The beach was very nice and protected from waves and seaweed. Lots of fish next to resort in the inlet for snorkeling. The only couple things that would have been better would have been easier transportation options to Playa Del Carmen. Also the nightly shows could have been much better. Having Xcaret park next door was also a bonus. And the production show at Xcaret was amazing.

We stayed in the Royal Level. It was awesome. The only downside to this resort is the lack of a long stretch of natural beach. The Royal Level is next to rocks not meant for walking. The view ids beautiful though.

Your timeshare employees were pushy, and it took away from the excitement and relaxation we were hoping for while staying at this property for our honeymoon after getting married. We had to repeatedly deny the breakfast “meetings” which felt predatory. After doing so we found out that employees had noted it in a file in your system and there was no “above and beyond” treatment after denying these meetings. I already spent more than enough money on our flights and the stay. Trying to squeeze more money out of us was insulting. I will never stay at another one of your resorts and I will ensure that anyone we know planning a trip in the future hears about our experience so they can avoid it as well.

In my opinion, this was the worst food experience I’ve ever had. Buffet food all day long and it seems like the same food they keep rotating throughout the days or weeks. Although the food looks ok, it’s either tasteless or the texture and temperature is like bad leftovers. Everything tastes watered down or something like flour added. Mexico is known for wonderful fruits, avocados, seafood and meats. Here, no fresh juice- the pineapple juice I got tasted like an added stevia type and carbonated water was added. No fresh guacamole, shrimp was bland had that dry cotton type texture to it. White fish was smelly, mooshy and chicken and hot dogs was mooshy too. Out of butter one day, ice cream machines broken twice, taco bar didn’t even have a decent taco. Comp coffee in the lobby old and cold. The coffee bar they have is not part of the all inclusive. The nacho cheese they serve at the snack bar gives movie theater nachos a Michelin star. The “beach” is a joke. Small man made inlet and no access to the real beach. Pool is cold after dark and there is no hot tub anywhere on the property. On our last day, we decided to spend the money to try and make up for the disaster and disappointment Occidental Xcaret caused. We took taxi to town/Playa Del Carmen and it ended being the best- supporting local restaurants that had amazing food; vibrant and fresh juice and exceptional tacos. The beach was beautiful, water was warm, we rented jet skis and played in the water.

The rooms were very clean. The grounds and pools awesome. We were especially impressed with Thanksgiving Day! The staff dressed up and the buffet was crazy! My kids (6-years old) loved the Kids Club, they had lots of crafts, cookie and cupcake decorating, a new outdoor area with Pirate Ship and playground. We enjoyed activities at Xcaret daily, the access cant be beat. I would recommend this resort.
