Dream family vacation

Our family vacation at Beaches was absolutely fantastic. Our only complaint is that we don't know how we will ever go to another all-inclusive again as our experience was incomparable to our other stays at 4 and 5 star resorts. Our children (ages 6 and 8) had the time of their life. The entire resort caters to their entertainment and the staff go out of their way at every encounter to provide exceptional service. The food was wonderful, beaches were beautiful, entertainment fun, rooms were spotl [... read more]ess and you never had to wait in line for anything. The kids club was very well managed, and after a few days, we did feel comfortable letting our children roam a bit as the resort was so safe. Truly an exceptional vacation.

Fantastic family vacation!

We had a fantastic time at the Beaches resort at Ochos Rios! Our kids (ages 6, 3 and 1) particularly enjoyed playing at the beach, pirates island water park, the kids club, evening entertainment and endless treats available at the restaurants. The in room babysitting service allowed us to have a few date nights where we could enjoy a relaxing dinner and drinks together as a couple. We particularly enjoyed the food at the Parisian restaurant and Neptune’s. The food was generally very good and t [... read more]here’s great variety available at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our room was nice and clean and able to fit all 5 of us. We would obviously have preferred a bigger room with a door separating sleeping areas but that costs quite a bit more. We were out of the room all day anyway having fun, so all good. The service was impeccable during the beginning of our stay when the resort was a bit quieter (any and all requests were catered to including providing us with an iPhone charger, restocking the fridge with beer for my husband and milk for the kids etc.). There’s a lot of staff around the place and always someone to ask if you need anything. We felt very safe and well attended to at all times. The resort was at maximum capacity towards the end of the week and the service got a tiny bit slower, but was still very good. Also, they provide a complimentary photo shoot and you can purchase a print/digital copy package- not cheap (eg. 5 prints, 10 digital pictures and a photo frame for $160 usd), but worth it for the memories. We loved our trip so much we are already planning on going back again once the weather gets bad here at home!

Average resort

Beaches Ocho Rios is an average resort. Beach is extremely small - if you are a beach walker then I do not suggest this resort. Meals were good, however the buffet lacks variety in comparison to other all inclusive resorts, I have been to better resorts that offer a greater variety of food options and quality. Neptunes best choice for dinner. Lunch spots - BBQ, Pizza area overcrowded and food not great. French okay. Italian restaurant was a disappointment. Rooms average, extremely hard b [... read more]ed and pull out sofa had poor mattress. Plus side of this resort, Josephine's crepes and coffees, premium brand alcohol and slides for kids. Overall, average resort. 3.5/5.

Not bad but has changed a lot!

I like staying there, i have been for over 10 years now. However, i noticed the last few times they have the music to loud late in the night. Also night, though i don't mind the locals hanging out in the back "public beach", they have become way to loud and comfortable making it difficult to get some rest. I also think some staff and house keepers in the early morning. Not professional to be talking and caring on so loudly in the hallways or surrounding property first thing in the morning. i fou [... read more]nd it hard to get sleep at night or if needed, sleep in. They are cool people but they have to realize its a work place with guests and not there personal "yard". I think they need a baby sitter telling them to keep it down a bit lol. other then that the place is nice. But i was disrupted by there loud talking all to often the last couple visits there. If they don't smarten up i will have to stay else were. Thanks :)

Resort was wonderfull

Booked this resort for a family vacation; there were 11 of us and we all had a great time. The resort was great in all aspects. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make the kids vacation great. No complaints at all.
