| The hotel staff not very nice. The beds were hard. Mold on the walls. Air conditioning broken. Bathroom had stains, mismatched tiles. Pool always dirty.Would be boring for families, not much to do so you have to pay for extra excursions.Food was horrible. The shows at night were good.Not all of the Restaurants were open and booking a reservation was difficult. At one restaurant we did not get served dinner. On the beach you get hassaled as soon as you walk out from vendors.The disco was ok. Many, many complaints from other guests. Mostly what we talked about with them. |

| When rains, many rooms flood. Spoke to honeymoon couple, had to chage rooms 3 times. No hot water 3 out of 5 days.Food average, difficult to book a la carte restaraunts. Front desk, never responded to 5 flooded room phone calls, had to walk down there to get a mop. Occidental Corporate office unhelpful. DO NOT STAY HERE!! Why do all travel sites give this dump 4 stars?? |

| Occidental Grand was a big disappointment to my friends and I. We stayed 1 wk, food was awful (bland, no taste), service was even worse, staff were disinterested/rude, beach was ok, rooms were decent but in need of overall upgrade. |
