Occidental at Xcaret Destination - All Inclusive
Loved the location, beautiful scenic views and good sized resort that had lots paths and trails. The room was clean, the staff was friendly, and the food (especially the A' la carte restaurants) was great! Different "themes" each night kept the buffet from being the same each day.
