Arrival: Jan 3-10/09
Check in time was slow and confusing. No real lines and people butting in line, so make sure you are in the check in line not the check out line....there is only a small sign.
Rooms:
Very nice and clean. We had trouble several times with our toilet flushing but a call to the desk and it was immediately fixed. Lots of hot water.very hot water...be careful.
Restaurants and Bars:
We got in line early in the am(6.30am) to make reservations for the Mexican Al La Carte only to find out after 30 mins that it was closed that day(Mon). Waited at 6.30 again the next day and did get reservations. After 7am...don't even bother as they would be full.
There was 3 buffets and 2 snack bars...all of the food was excellent. Esp. the little beach resteraunt...It was worth the wait to get in. We liked it the best. Asian was good too.
Beach/Pools/Grounds:
2 large pools..beautiful. The ocean water was warmer as it is very shallow but deep enough to get wet and cooled off. Very safe for small children. Our grandkids went back and forth from the pool to the beach and back again. They had the best of both worlds. You have to get to the pool and beach chairs early and reserve them(by 6.30am). Trade in your dirty towels when you are going up to your room so you have clean towels to put on your chairs early in the am. The resort was at capacity so it was a rush to get chairs at the spot you liked. One day someone stole our towels and chairs when we were at breakfast and I'm not proud of this but we almost got in a fight over it. So maybe a personal item like a magazine, left on chairs would be more of a guarentee of a chair.
Activities on and off the Resort/Hotel: We did the banana boat($20.00) and parasailing($40.00). You can reserve right there at the dock. It was cheaper than at any of the Sunwing or resort kiosks.
Ask around. We were there with 9 people so we didn't do any tours as they were expensive and we went for the beach and sun and rest.
Other Comments:
Food was excellent. Toast was not always available. The store sold water so we bought a few and kept the bottles and refilled at the buffets. It got loud at the pool bar area because of the loud music and all the noisy youger crowd but they were harmless. We were told this was one of their busiest weeks.
We had a wonderful vacation and would recommend it to anyone. It isn't quiet, I guess because it is Cancun and the price was very reasonable. I'd say a 4 star for sure.
The Mexican people work so hard for us and are a very nice humble people.
We were in our rooms most nights by 9-9.30 so we didn't see much of the night entertainment. What we saw was cultural and good.
We would like to go back but there are other places to go and see!

The Osais Palm Beach is located on the north side of the of the Seven (Cancun). It's the last resort beside the entrance to the lagoon.
This property is clean and well maintained. The '05 hurricaine did not appear to have caused any damage or erosion to this hotel. There is construction next door to the hotel. Apparently they are building a Grand Oasis Palm Beach. Noise due to construction is seven days a week, during the day. Unless you have a room facing the construction or lounging on the beach in front, you should be ok.
ROOMS are typical with no balcony. (balconies are very limited). Clean and comfortable.
BEACH
is soft white sand with clear calm water. Not deep and great for kids. You can walk the beach to other hotels.
POOL is kept clean. The swim-up bar is nice and in a good location. No complaints here.
FOOD/DRINK
is good with variety. Flavors are like Canada/USA. Prime cuts have an extra charge. The beer is Corona on tap. (add a slice of lime and perfect) Premium liquor has an extra charge. (ei. Bailey's)
ENTERTAINMENT is fair. The team does there best to keep you active. No disco or any hopping music at this place. If you like a quiet and relaxing vacation, this place is for you.
I recommend this hotel but would not return. I like a little more action. |
