Anybody been to either of these places and would like to comment? TIA I have been to both (day pass to Allegra/vacation at Occidental) and written about them previously. Try searching Barcelo on this forum and see if it comes up. I will see if I can find it. However, briefly I would recommend Allegra for kids/young family., Occidental for older, with the caveat that the beach is a long walk from the main entrance. Any specific requirements?

Just prefer a quieter place . We are in our 60’s . Occidental sounds better except for the long walk to the beach. Are the pools and food near the beach as well?

Occidental sounds better except for the long walk to the beach. Are the pools and food near the beach as well? Found a couple of threads containing my previous reviews. Keep in mind it has been 6 years since I was at Allegra and probably 3-4 years since Occidental, so things could have changed under new management. If you are able to walk Occidental seems a better fit. Food and ambience better. Food, as long as the weather is good, and main pool are near the beach. There is a quieter, adult-only pool half-way between main building and beach, before the mangrove. If the weather is bad, buffet moves to main lobby area.
