One such guest who had a dismal stay at the Occidental Xcaret in Mexico after Hotel management made it clear they could care less about thier guests comfort and satisfaction constructed a website that former guests could post thier bad experinces online. Carter Hargrave a resident of Oklahoma who now owns the website www.occidentalhotels.net dedicated to informing people of the poor treatement he and his wife received as well as the un believeable treatment the family of a little boy who died at the same resorts swimming pool after being sucked into a huge uncovered drain pipe (Note Photo).
"The death of Brent Midlock at Occidental was the last straw and I knew I had to have a public forum. That little boy was down in that pool for 16 hours before they pulled him up, and then Occidental Hotels would not even help the family get his body home; The family had to actually pay three thousand dollars before his body would be released and it just gets worse from there", said Hargrave.

"There are a couple of bright sides in this sad experience, one they keep loosing every legal battle. First was for the domain name and they lost. Second they filed a frivoulous lawsuit in Illinois when they had no office, business, or jurisdiction there, claiming trademark infringement when thier trademark had been cancelled years ago by the United States Patent and Trademark Office."
The are just a nightmare of a company to attack a former guest with lawsuits for exercising the American First Ammendment free speach rights. Whats next, going after negative posts on trip advisor?
As of this date the lawsuit filed in Illinois has been dismissed by the judge for lack of jurisdiction and will be transfered to the former guests home state.

When traveling to a foreign resort such as Occidental and Allegro, or any of them really, just do your homework for you and your family's safety. Its clear with some of these companies you are on your own if something goes wrong.
