Occidental Jandía Mar

We (2 adults, 12 and 9 year old boys) stayed at Occidental for two weeks, and we all had the best and relaxing vacation! The hotel staff are all super nice and helpful, it was obvious they were enjoying working together and were passionate about doing a good job. At the hotel there is a small store runn by a lovely lady called Carmen and usually these hotel stores are expensive, but this one isn't! The waterpark is great for adults, teens, kids and babies! Plenty of different things to do for everyone over the day with the activity club staff and in the evenings there was a kids disco, plus a show from the circus. The menu at the buffet was good and everyone should be able to find something that they like. The beach is only 10 minutes away but it is downhill from the hotel and some might feel tired walking back up, but it was only about 15 minutes going back walking. The WiFi is Best near the main building. There is a kids spa from 10-11:30 every day, a lovely way to start a relaxing day 😊 Plenty of sunbeds all around the pools.

Amazing experience! The all inclusive package is really worth it. All the meals are amazing! Such a vast buffet with Spanish, Italian and Continental dishes - veg, fish, chicken, meat, salads, desserts, dips, live counters - still with some variations everyday in breakfast, lunch and dinner. The pool bar has enough snacks to munch on - salads, pizza, fried snacks etc. The Sangria is everywhere and alcohol options are plenty! The staff at the restaurant and pool and theater bar was great too! Also hats off to the animation team for their enthusiasm and organizing nice activities for kids as well as grown ups. Last but not the least, the heated pool and the theater at 9 pm are the cherry on the top. You can spend the whole day within the resort without getting bored for a single minute!

Many activities for families and kids (mini golf, aquapark, heated swimming pool, baby club). Laundry was a plus, useful for us. The Jandia beach nearby is amazing. Buffet is ok and there's a kids buffet, my kid loved it. I don't know if we were lucky but the weather was great.

The staff is so friendly and always happy, smiling while they do their hard work. Absolutely incredible people. We're already missing them. It can't be stated enough, how brilliant so many of the staff was. So much care, our baby got sick in the middle. They offered arranging doctors visit or medicine if we'd needed it. As we were stuck mostly in our room, we got a call from reception if there is anything else they could help us with. Also, at the buffet restaurant, they let us take food to our room. And asked if they need to cook anything special for our baby. We were really blown away by staff concerns for us. Also they put on extra activities with music and dancing... as our daughter loved it.

Food was veeeery nice surprise for such kind of all incl hotel, I really truly loved all the meals I have tried - alas honestly there was absolutely NO chance to try it all:-) Fresh fish, fresh fruits, crispy pizza, heaps of sweets, etc etc etc. Plus aquaparc for kids plus special opportunity to get to the top of the highgest island mountain just behind the hotel if you wake up early enough, hiking under the stars for sunrise and then having late breakfast back down - loved it!
