Occidental

Hi, I stay at Occidental a couple of times a year and own several weeks there which I rent. Everyone loves the resort.

As for tipping. I usually leave the waiter or waitress at each meal a couple of dollars and tip the bartenders a couple of times a day. They really appreciate it, since many people do not tip.

Can't imagine getting good service and not showing appreciation. Have a great trip! You'll love it!

I also own 1 week (1 BR suite?). We just got back from 8 nights
@ Occidental 2 weeks ago & loved it- our 1st time staying @ Occid.

Restaurants were actually nicer than we expected. Our last trip we went to
Gianni's 2X-great food, but Occidentals Olio was as good or better
(& all courses that I wouldnt have gotten a la carte).

The Asian & Mexican- very nice too. I thought the Carribean restaurant
was good, but too "Americanized"- Not enough local dishes.

All in all- great resort & trip , cant wait to go back.
