    Fabulous Week At Occidental

    We had an absolutely fabulous week at the Occidenatl Nuevo Vallarta! Great food (for the most part), excellent drinks and great service. We never waited for a table at the buffet, and we're able to get into all the a la carte restaurants we wanted. Our least favorite was the Mexican for sure, food and service were definitely lacking that night...but Mexican night at the buffet made up for it! The Japanese tapanyaki was excellent...food and service were 5 star for sure! The room was very spacious and had everything we needed including a super comfy bed! Boogie boarding in the waves was a lot of fun, but mostly we just lounged at the edge of the pool reading, we never had a problem getting our favorite pool chairs with getting up at 8:00. The chair game exists, but not crazy here...we usually had our pick at 8:00! Huge shout out to Missael at the main pool...he never let our cups go dry and got us hooked on some new favorites (Cantarito with passion fruit)!! Would definitely not hesitate to go back!!

    Nuevo Vallarta holiday

    Royal level was definitely the way to go. The benefit outways the extra cost. Being able to book ala carte every night was great.

    Good place to relax

    We enjoyed our stay. The food quality in the buffet was good with lots of seafood choices each day. The resort is smaller than others so feels not as crowded or loud if you want to relax and read. Chairs were a bit hard to get and they only let you leave your items for 30 min or they would remove the sign said and we heard of some items being removed but a the same time other were left for hours with no one at the chairs. We did have a problem with a sink draining and mentioned it and it was finally repaired after the 4th day and the toilet seat was barely attached and was never repaired although we mentioned it which is really not different than other resorts. We would go back here for sure
