Reviews
Nice pools, lots of sunbeds... and if you want to be far from everything, just go down the golden sandy Jandia beach where you can relax by yourself. [The beach is huge]
We wanted to say bye to "our" cleaner lady but she wasn't there on our last day, so.... thank you to her for caring for us for a week.
Also, thank you to the spa ladies for the nice relaxing day.
The hotel pool area whilst nice is in need of some TLC…tiles need grouting/repair, wood needs painting, bridge to pool bar feels like at any point you may fall through and into the pool.
We were disappointed with the room for a 4star. No iron in the room but more surprising was a lack of kettle with tea & coffee making facilities.
We came back to the room a few days after it had been ‘cleaned’ to find the floor was still gritty and so clearly hadn’t been swept & moped. The bedsheets were not changed once during our stay. Seems they only make the bed and give it a very quick one over each day. The room was dated and needs modernising.
Food - the one and only evening restaurant whilst always being replenished was disappointing in quality. The selection was more limited to what we are used to and we found most nights it was the same old with only a couple of new options. With all inclusive you need to make it more varied for guests. Also, we found the staff are very slow to clear away dirty plates and looked around to see other tables in our position, with plates piled up and having to go onto desert with main plates left on the table…not a pleasant dining experience!
The hotel is on a slope and this should be made more clear to prospective customers. We heard of room changes due to mobility issues, but at least the walk up and down burns off the calories!
We fed back that this isn’t helped by the pool towel pick up/drop off being up the top the main reception away from the pools. Often the reception staff as tied up with check in & outs so you’re left in a queue just to get fresh towels.
What seems to be a pitty, from reading previous reviews, over the last several months is that the same issues cropping up. The guest experience manager will acknowledge this review and thank me but are lessons really being learnt and improvements happening?
Overall, we had a pleasant stay but when going back to Fuerteventura we will use other hotels and sadly wouldn’t recommend this one.
Ok that's the bad stuff over with.
We had a really nice week at the Occidental Playa, the pool areas were large enough to accommodate everyone and loads of sunbeds so no need to reserve (but people did!!)
The snack bar at the bottom pool was excellent and we only tried the main restaurant for lunch once.
Talking of which the evening meals were more than enough for anyones tastes with a massive assortment of local and international cuisines. Breakfasts were the same.
The gardens were immaculate and clean a big tick 👌☑️ to the grounds people. Lovely variety of plants.
For those that are interested the beer 🍺 is Cruzcampo. If you upgrade you can get Heineken.
So would we stay here again? Yes we would now we know what to expect but if you are coming here and expecting 4* as standard you will be disappointed unless you upgrade.
The family room is in desperate need of renovation since it's very old and outdated .Unfortunately,the cleaning was also extremely poorly done,with cockroaches near the bed and in one of the two bathrooms ,the doors were extremely unkept and the machine where we would insert our card was rusty.The food lacked variety,we almost ate the same thing every day and the drinks were cheap and diluted.
It was a birthday weekend for my husband and was very enjoyable. We particularly appreciated the gift the hotel delivered to our room for him.
Good value stay. We drove down from the airport which was very easy. Great walks along the beach.
