Resort closed before we could stay

The resort closed and was sold before we could stay there this time. We were refunded and booked at another resort. We were very disappointed as we stayed at Jewel paradise cove a few times and enjoyed it. We also had many trips to Jewel Runaway Bay but it was also sold a few years ago. We are anxiously awaiting a new resort to open at these locations so we can possibly book there again.

Pricey

This resort is a great size and everything is accessible and walkable. Staff was kind and attentive. I do think this resort is a bit pricier for the overall value it is an older resort so rooms were a bit dated and entertainment and restaurant options were limited.

Smaller, friendly, perfect

The staff at the Jewel is the selling point for this resort. You will always see a smile and get a hello everywhere you go. The Jewel is on the smaller side but with all the amenities of a large resort! The food at all of the restaurants, buffet, and beach side jerk hut is delicious. Make sure you try Janice’s ladder challenge (especially #5!) Terry-Ann is your go to lady on the beach and if you’re lucky you can catch some of her dance moves in the evening by the main bar. Definitely recommend f [... read more]or fun and relaxation. I am sure we will be visiting the Jewel again.

Lovely resort

The relative small size of the resort was very attractive to us . Yet it has everything we could have wished for . Nice rooms , great buffet and restaurants and very friendly people ! The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. Swimming in the ocean not great but nice enough. Snorkeling in small area at one end of the resort is enjoyable with lots of fish . Loved the place !

Great Resort

Very clean, friendly ..good vibes..beach not great..but everything else worth the trip. Great Service..Buffet best bet...Restaurants very slow service and average food. Would consider going back. Smaller older resort but well kept..grounds lovely..good value.

2nd time

2nd time back in 6mths, took a group of 21 this time, we had a blast we will be back for sure. Tropical storm hit us on the last eve but it did not spoil our vacation. Staff are great. hotel manager made sure all was well after the storm.

Cozy little resort

Found this resort to be a nice little spot. Went with a large group. Food was average. Buffet was very average. Not much selection. Beaches were very small. Hamburger and hot dog place was a pleasant surprise. Service in all restaurants other than Japanese was extremely slow. Honestly this trip was not worth the money we paid. Company made this trip enjoyable along with the friendly service. Will look for a nicer resort next time in Jamaica

Fun in the sun

Was a great little resort, the grounds were beautiful, well kept and very well laid out. The food was great (more than enough to eat). The beach front was a little deceiving from the photos but still very enjoyable. The room was ok , could use some up dating , the deep jet tub was hard to get in and out of for the older people. The water sports girl was simply the best and most hospitable person on the island Great times overAll

Perfect resort to chill

Older Resort but well maintained. Food was really good. staff are great. the views are great if you like sunsets this is the place. The rooms are a bit dated but clean. The beach is not a 10 but clean. Will be back soon.

A great resort

The staff are so friendly and helpful and the food is excellent. We especially appreciated the easy access to the beach. As seniors we liked that the resort is small so we felt comfortable in finding our way around. Just a word of caution to other seniors - there us no elevator and ir us difficult to get a ground floor room and especially one that us t off if the noisy pool area. It took us until the third day to get a quiet room on the first floor

Amazing Resort

We stayed here for 2 weeks (Feb 25 - Mar 11) with 3 other couples and had a fantastic time. The staff was amazing and so friendly (Whitney, Marvel (can make a mean Coco Loco), Akello, Amoy to name a few). The resort is the right size for getting around, loved that there was a swim up bar at every pool. Food was awesome. Rooms were clean, fridge was stocked daily. (put a small note with a buck or two ) Kayaking was great, snorkeling was great on sight at the small beach I saw lots of differen [... read more]t types of fish. (parrot fish, moray eel, barracuda etc.) We went out fishing on the glass bottom boat, that was fun. What we caught and kept we were able to bring back and the chef cooked our fish for us to eat for lunch. Tie die was fun as your own personal souvenir, just remember to bring your own white shirt, hat etc. The dinners on the beach or the one on the main pool desk was nicely put on with live bands playing. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Resort

We stayed at The Jewell Paradise Cove from Feb 25 to March 11 2023. We have travelled for over 15 years and this is the best resort we have ever stayed at. The food was unbelievable, if you cannot find something delicious to eat then you should stay home. The chefs prepared the best chicken and curry dishes everyday. Special thanks go to Chef Leroy and the team at the Moonstone for the special attention they gave our group, outstanding food and service. You are true professionals. The [... read more] resort is clean and the layout is great. The landscaping is beautiful. The pools were fun, the entertainment staff were great. The beach is calm and clean, I did miss the ocean waves to play in but not enough to change my mind about this resort. The water sports were available and the staff were so helpful. I highly recommend this resort.to any adult that wants sun, heat, relaxation and appreciates such wonderful staff.

Perfect size. Beautiful location

This resort was a perfect size with superb staff and great food options. The beach is small so no walks along the beach however the ability to take out a kayak or paddle board anytime was nice. Loved the jerk chicken hut and yoga classes.

Garden of eden

Had a lovely stay here, the staff are kind and sweet and the property itself is such a beauty, what a gem, so well-kept ie., beach, pool, garden, and room was clean and cosy .. food and drink were nice, always found something to satisfy. staff wear masks and luggage and bags are sanitized on arrival. we were asked to sanitize our hands upon entering restaurants. at the end of the ten days, didnt want to go home. it was such a nice spot to vacation in. westjet reps were helpful solving any issues [... read more], my hats off to them. thank you for a much anticipated holiday. had a great time, zero complaints.

Relaxing Week @ Jewel Paradise Cove

We enjoyed our week @ Jewel Pardise Cove. The beach is small but always loungers available.The loungers were sanitized every day. The cove was always safe to swim even on red flag days. The food was very good, limited food options with servers handling plate/ food only for covid safety. Rooms were very nice and clean. We had a pool view room / with the best maid ever Evette thank you for making our vacation wonderful.The Platinium Restaurant had great steak and ribs and a shout out to Alistair f [... read more]or the best service.The entertainment was very good. The Sunset Bar was our favorite evening spot.The Staff make this resort wonderful.The lay out of the resort makes it easy to get around and the grounds are beautiful.

Location Location

Jewel paradise cove is an established resort set on a prime site on Runaway Bay. The grounds are well taken care of. The buildings have had upgrades. There are a variety of places to eat. Good entertainment. Good security. Friendly staff. Covid has made serving buffet food slower but they cope and stay on the safe side. Wonderful getaway for snowbirds.

Great Time

We were very impressed- resort is immaculately groomed on grounds - the employees are sooo great - everyone friendly and helpful . They make your stay amazing. Food was great - beach is smaller but very calm so if any balance issues your not fighting waves even on a rough red flag day . Bring a bit of bread into water and you will be surrounded by beautiful fish . Rooms were clean and up to date . My only suggestion is they reconsider the music in the evening - it’s very reggae and pop which i [... read more]s great but would be nice to have a lower key option - they should offer jazz or piano bar at top of Italian restaurant.The majority of guests are 40 plus . Some nights just wanting to chill - I find this a issue with most resorts - if your not looking for a long beach then I would recommend this resort .

Relaxing and beautiful

We were in much need of some R &R. Paradise Cove gave us the luxury of chilling by the beach, snorkeling and other various water sports as well as off resort excursions. The menu changed daily with delicious selections. We found it clean and well kept with courteous staff there to help when needed. Highly recommend this resort if you are looking to chill. They have a pool table, ping pong and life size connect four game for down time moments too! The spa was wonderful! Thanks Althea!

Not Imperssed

The resort is well staffed and kept immaculate, but my group has stayed at a Jewel resort for now 9 years. There was 11 of us this year, there may have been once in those nine years, that we got a room that we had booked. Every year we recieve a room then have to move the next day or the next, to a room we asked for. This year we did not get a pool veiw room,we ended up in building 5 that is half way between the ocean and a pool in the next block. I liked the room but would like the money [... read more] back that i paid to have a pool veiw. thank you John
