Top Riviera Maya Hotel Reviews

Occidental at Xcaret Destination - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"The property was beautiful! Abundant wildlife, it was amusing to watch the monkeys on the trails, trees and balconies 🤗 the pools were big enough for all of the guests remember to put your towels down early if you want a chair! Same with the beach. There is a lot of walking Moses was great he picked us up a few times in a cart. The pillows were not comfortable! The cots are more comfortable than the pull out couch. The food was what you would expect at an all inclusive plentiful and fresh but my granddaughter said bland. Xcaret was great we got the unlimited pass and went to the park all but one day."
