Ivan from Montreal, Quebec Age 56 I went with my wife and daughter. We have been travelling for 1 months to 2 week for over 34 years. Our experience with the above resort was not the best , I would say terrible when you run into problems. We booked a junior suite with Air Canada and was told that an... more

My family has two timeshares based out of Aruba. As a family we decided to do something different and go to another island. After careful consideration of all Occidental Allegro resorts the family all 24 (7 yrs to 65 yrs) of us selected Occidental Flamingo Punta Cana. This decision was based on their website - we should have reviewed Trip... more

We stayed at this hotel July 5th to July 12th. This was also our first time in the Dominican republic also. I will just list my pros and cons. PROS: The beach was beautiful. White sand, clear water. There was always employees walking around cleaning up after people left empty bottles and such. It was nice to have the pools... more

So, this is probably going to be a long review. I know that some people have probably already written half of what I'm about to write, but I figure I'll put it all in one place, for everyone to see! :) First of all, don't read half of the bad reviews. It seems to be the only reason why people... more

The rooms were relatively large and clean. The air conditioning worked fine although we had a temporary loss of power. The buffet is good. The pools were clean enough. The servers were very helpfull. The beach is fine. They have a good way to cut back on the use of electricity when you're not in your room (a bit annoying).... more

Occidental Punta Cana 2008 May 18-25th This was our 4th vacation together and I have to admit, it was amazing. There were many reviews that made this place sound like garbage, but it’s totally not.... Let’s be honest, people set the bar super high, but let’s remember this is not Malibu. It’s actually a very poor country which strives on... more

This hotel is great if you are in the Royal Club. The restaurant in the club is worth it. Other restaurants are okay. The portions are small in the theme restaurants. The Pizza place upstairs from the theatre is good and open until 6 a.m. for club goers. Club Mangu is good but look out for the cheapy cheapy people.... more

We had a great time. It was our first trip to Dominican and we had read a lot of the reviews here on Tripadvisor before going. They were helpful and had us very wary. We had heard about poor maid service, and poor service at the bar, bad pools, bad food, getting sick and all of the horror stories that... more

We stayed at Grand Occidental in Punta Cana for a week and we were not impressed. The beach was cleaned and the food was good as long as you ate at the buffet, pizza or taqueria. Drinks were decent and good service at the bar. The check in was horrible; no customer service skills. When we got there, the line... more
