Occidental Grand
Hotel Information: North American and European guests are drawn to this moderately priced resort to enjoy activities throughout the day and night, including merengue lessons, pool aerobics, and after-dark shows in an open-air theater.
Amenity highlights: Thatch-roof palapas and palm trees furnish shade for relaxation on the 640 meters (700 yards) of powdery white-sand beach. Three lagoon-style pools offer swimming alternatives to the sea: one is the scene of lively daytime activities; the largest is quieter and contains two spa tubs and a swim-up bar; the third is for children.
Insider tip: Adjacent to the Occidental Grand is a large shopping center containing Dominican products, such as amber and larimar stone, cigars, ceramics, and other gift items.
The majority of amenities, activities, and gratuities at this Occidental Grand Punta Cana are included in the room rate; guests will not be charged extra for the majority of amenities and activities (scroll up to the All-Inclusive Details section for more information).
Providing a large balcony or patio, the 877 guestrooms offer cool, comfortable living with both air conditioning and ceiling fans. Terracotta tile floors, light-colored, rustic furniture and floral fabrics create a vacation ambience. Blue-and-white tile bathrooms contain a tub/shower combination. Satellite TV, direct-dial phones, and in-room safes are included. The resort purifies water but recommends drinking bottled water, which is provided along with soft drinks in minibars.
