Fantastic! Great! Brilliant! We repeatedly looked at each other and smiled. Every single conceivable thing that anybody could possibly want from a holiday could be found at the Occidental Caribbean Village. We sincerely believe that anyone leaving negative info MUST be from a jealous competitor. Our only concern is, where else could we possibly go on holiday and match it??

I visited the Caribbean Village for my 2 week holiday (vacation for the us) and found it to be a great hotel. The entertainment team were fantastic and made sure they involved everyone in all the events (and most importantly, left you alone if you just wanted to relax quietly 'after the night before'). I found the food selection very good, just a small drawer back was booking early for the specialist restaurants but I suppose there has to be some way to restrict the seating to accommodate all. The hotel was situated within easy distance from the hustle and bustle of the nightlife and shopping and the evening shows were very entertaining. I have booked to return again in Sep 05 and hope my stay is as enjoyable as last year. Thumbs up from me. Tx

We took our two teenage boys this time, June 2005 and they loved the trip. Kevin and I have been down to Mexico before and knew the differences. The service at the Caribbean Village hotel was outstanding. We loved our Mexican restaurant head waiter and all the staff at the buffet. We also want to mention how good our cleaning staff was. We were not pleased with rusty floors in our bathroom, but the building is older and we can live with that. What we did not enjoy was not having Air Condition. That is our only reason for not returning to this hotel and that's a shame.
