Culinary Delight

“During my stay at El Occidental, I was blown away by the gastronomic experience at the El Pescador restaurant. The dishes crafted by Chef Edwin Ozuna were nothing short of really good. Each bite of the Mahi Mahi prepared with black salt was a burst of flavor. The attentive service by Gener, our waiter, made dining there a truly nice occasion.” view full review

I stayed at this hotel and had a great experience overall. The room was spacious and had a large closed storage, a comfortable king-size bed, and a small table for drinks, which was nice. The service was friendly and helpful, although there was a small inconvenience during late check-in due to a delayed flight. The location was excellent, close to the parks and designed to make guests feel special. The dining options were good but slightly far from my room for breakfast. The overall experience was beyond amazing, with incredible facilities and an unforgettable stay.

The hotel had an overwhelming stench of mold and mildew after a long day of activities, but the room was nice and big with a huge closed storage, king size bed, and a small table for two drinks. The location was fantastic, very close to XCaret park, and offers some extras not accessible to other guests. The dining experience was really good with a good variety of food, including shrimp, salmon, and other fresh seafood available. However, the service missed different things every day and was rude and inconvenienced us when checking in late after a delayed flight.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a balcony overlooking lush grounds, providing a relaxing stay. However, some areas showed signs of mold. The service was generally friendly, except for one staff member pushing time-sharing. The location is ideal for exploring Xcaret Mexico and immersing in nature, although not at the beach area as expected.

The hotel offers a peaceful location close to nature, with good food and cocktails; however, the rooms were not soundproofed, affecting our sleep quality and we received a different room than booked.
