    Good hotel but employees kindness not so good

    The hotel structure is very good but the way the staff treat guests depends on the tips they receive

    Occidental Punta Cana

    Had a great time with my fiancé staying at the occidental. Service was great! The events were beyond what we imagined and fun to take part of. Highly Recommend trying pizza bar as it’s open all night for those having late night cravings. As well as the steak restaurant. Big shout out to Sasa the chef from the main buffet, always put a smile on our faces and a stomachs full after breakfast and lunch time. Thank you so much to everyone at the resort, we’ll be sure to come back in the future!

    Very poor service at the reception

    I will not stay at the Occcidental Punta Cana in the future. Reception staff could not resolve the smallet issues and had to wait for the supervisor. This caused several visit at the recption to fix issues such as changing room and tale check out booking.

    4th Stay at Occidental Punta Cana – Mixed Experience

    This was our 4th visit, but our first not booking through OVC. Unfortunately, OVC wouldn’t allow bonus time for guests this year, and my sister-in-law found it cheaper to book directly through Barcelo.com than through OVC—even for a junior suite with a seaside view. Grounds: Beautiful, clean, and well maintained (5/5). Service: Ranged from fair to excellent (3/5). Check-In: Confusing. I prepaid 50% online, but the hotel tried to add an unexpected $100 “tax.” I’ll be following up with Barcelo (3/5). Room: Good overall. A/C couldn’t be adjusted but issues were resolved quickly (4/5). Beds & Housekeeping: Excellent (5/5). Dining: Very mixed. • Buffet: Generally good with plenty of hot, well-prepared options. • The Oriental: Unfortunately our worst experience—slow service and cold dishes. • Italian & Steakhouse: Best food and service of the trip. • Snacks: Burgers weren’t great, but the pizza/taco station was excellent. We’ve loved this resort in the past and still enjoyed parts of our stay, but the inconsistencies this time—especially with dining and OVC policies—were disappointing.
