The hotel is just great! We have been planning a trip to the Dominican Republic for a very long time, but somehow it didn’t work out. We have chosen this hotel many times, and each time we liked this one, then this one. And this time we decided to choose Occidental and now we understand that the choice was excellent. I'll start with the most important thing for me, from the beach. Most fly to the Dominican Republic because of the divine and unique beaches of this island. The beach is wonderful. Algae is cleaned every day, so the cleanliness is perfect. The water is crystal clear, the waves are pleasant, there have never been huge ones. But at the same time, it's nice to jump on the waves. The beach is very beautiful, there are no umbrellas, and this is another plus. Everything looks close to natural conditions. There are more than enough beds. Although the beach is not very big, there were always enough places, and the sunbeds were not crowded. They didn’t go over each other’s heads, there was enough free personal space. The territory is also a fairy tale. There are many palm trees and greenery, there is a lake with living creatures, turtles, fish, ducks. Several pools, three to be exact. Bars are at almost every step, you can have a bite to eat and drink any cocktail or just a cup of coffee, by the way, very tasty. They did not buy additional VIP services, and they made the right decision. What food, what alcohol is of the highest quality, and with a simple choice of a tour, I think you should not overpay, but it's up to you to decide. A room with a huge king size bed, there is a lot of space, enough for a family, but for the two of us, it’s generally excellent. There is also a lot of space for things, a safe, an iron and ironing board, a coffee maker, a mini-bar, shower accessories, everything changed every day, or was reported. Cleaning is excellent, every day, beach towels are immediately in the room and you can change them all day and as many times as you want. The food didn't disappoint either. In addition to the main restaurant, as I already wrote, you can eat almost anywhere in the hotel at any time, even late at night or early in the morning. Immediately upon arrival, we signed up for a la carte restaurants, you can visit them once. Steakhouse and Seafood are real favourites, although the others are just as good. . In total, the main restaurant lacked meat and vegetables in any form immeasurably, less fruit and seafood, and that was every day. Alcohol and other drinks are also unlimited. In this case, you can say for sure that they are pouring like a river. The only drawback is the lack of free internet, only for a fee, but we knew about it, so we were not very upset, at least we had a rest without phones)). The staff is not particularly in a hurry, and this is also worth considering, everything is a bit slow, but it is done with high quality. In general, the hotel is superb. And most importantly, the beach where you want to spend the rest of your life)))).
