Riu Montego Bay: Pretty good

This is our 8th visit to Jamaica. We have stayed in 3 different all inclusive hotels in Montego Bay and many small hotels throughout. This was our first stay at Riu MoBay (January) and really found the resort to be very nice, the rooms are very clean and fairly well maintained. They need to change their A/C filters because it does create a musty smell. Although once we opened the patio doors it was gone. The food at the buffet was great found lots of fish and shrimp and great deserts. We lov [... read more]ed the Steak House!! The bars have awesome service with plenty of staff. The entertainment is good too. The young staff members do a great job of keeping everyone happy during the day and at night performed beautifully. Sunshine was my favourite. The beach is nice and warm and a fair size. Plenty of beautiful trees for shade and we didn’t have a hard time finding loungers. Unfortunately this hotel is about a kilometre from the airport so planes are a real nuisance and fly directly over the beach. It would be nice it they had service on the beach for drinks since you have to walk a distance to the pool bar. A few locals on small boats provide Ganja and this was very convenient and helpful to many guests. The beach party was fun too! The pool is huge and beautiful. I didn’t get in but it looked warm and lots of chairs and shade. Don’t miss the weekly Pool Party because it was hilarious and lots of fun!

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Great vacation!!!

This is a really nice & clean resort. The food was excellent with lots of variety at the buffet. Bar staff use premium/name brand booze in your drinks and servers (shout out to Monique) take orders at the beach and pool. The entertainment staff (Angel in particular) went above and beyond in keeping things fun and running smooth. Our only negative experience was the Japanese a-la-carte restaurant which is normally a high light at most resorts. 50% of the cooktop was not working (should hav [... read more]e been checked in advance & our group moved to another empty station) and the chef had his back to us the entire supper. On the positive side, our room was upgraded to an Ocean Front after waiting approx. 2 hours (5PM) for an available Ocean View. We would definitely stay at this resort again... great value for the money ($)

Iberostar Selection Rose Hall Suites: Beautiful Resort

The hotel was very nice and rooms were good as well. The only issue we had is the that food could be hotter at the buffet. Overall that is the only issue we had while being there for 10 days. The grounds are nice and the people were very friendly.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Incredible Resort

The hotel and grounds were beautiful and well kept. Staff was amazing, from bartenders, wait staff, housekeeping, and others. Food was amazing and covered a variety of menu items. The pool was incredible and kept clean at all times and the entertainment was some of the best I’ve seen, from the nightly shows on stage, to Local musical talent, to the poolside entertainment crew! Loved it all!

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Absolutely amazing!

Every aspect of this hotel was top notch! Rooms were beautiful and clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Several beach areas to suit anyone, beautiful pools. Extensive selection at the buffet restaurants, including authentic Jamaican fare (highly recommend!), broad selection for a la carte. Can’t say enough about it!

Riu Montego Bay: Missing the little things

Having stayed a a few RIUs it wasn't hard to book a RIU again. The resort was lovely and the people friendly. Very clean surroundings and the food okay. I was surprised there was no room service for early morning coffee in our room but was even more surprised when I wasn't allowed to take a pot of coffee to our room. I get up early so enjoying a coffee on the balcony is a real treat. So to be able to do that US$26.00 later I bought 2 travel mugs and walked to get 2 coffees to take back to the ro [... read more]om each morning. And what happened to supplying little lotions? As small as those things are, I look forward to those little things on my vacation. According to staff these are part of cost cutting measures. It's too bad. I'm not saying that if I don't book my vacations at a RIU they will shut down but, I'm definitely going to try some place different next time.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Amazing resort!!!

Great service. Friendly staff. Rooms were cleaned promptly. The food was fabulous. Can't wait to go back..😎 from arriving to leaving free of hassles. Great scenic route to hotel. Ac on the bus. The a LA caRte restaurant's are a must try.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Awesome Resort

Our trip to Iberostar Rose Hall Beach Resort was great. The hotel staff is friendly and the grounds were clean and well kept. We had a few issues with our room and the problems were taken care of immediately. Some other places we've been you need to ask a few times to get a problem fixed but that was not the case at Iberostar. The food was delicious and the staff was always friendly and helpful. We especially liked Vanessa who was our server at the pool. She was so friendly and happy and w [... read more]e really appreciated her great service. Thanks Vanessa :) We would definitely recommend this resort and hope to go back again.

Grand Decameron Cornwall Beach: Great pick

We really enjoyed the new clean facilities. Everything was close and convenient. Beautiful time...Big thank you to Janeesha the best waitress in Montego bay.Nice staff and activities..food was plentiful but not outstanding..overall amazing time will go again...not crowded..just right..close to airport....ya mon!!!!

Secrets Wild Orchid: Wonderful Holiday in Paradise

This is the 12th time to this resort since 2012. It is about 15 to 20 minutes from the airport. We only travel for 3 nights so every minute counts in Jamaica. We had hoped for a room update for being repeat guests but the resort was booked. We stayed at the Wild Orchid Preferred Club. Our room was on the top (4th) floor. This time Breathless was open. We were concerned that this might impact the busyness but it actually worked to our benefit. Since we were preferred guests we had access the  [... read more]Breathless. The rooftop sunsets, and beautifully appointed grounds were like we were staying at two resorts for the price of one. Our meals were excellent for breakfast and lunch. Unfortunately we had a few disappointing meals at Bordeaux which is our favourite French restaurant. The staff at Secrets and Breathless are exceptional. The weather was perfect! We could not have asked for better weather. This time we paid for the VIP package at the MBJ airport. Don't think this was worth the money. We can't wait for trip 13.

Jewel Runaway Bay Resort: Great resort

Arrived to the resort in Jan/18/18. We were greeted by hotel staff, checked in and taken to our room. It was on the second floor overlooking one of the pool areas. The room is your standard hotel room and nothing fancy however we did have two single beds for our kids and a king bed. We got what we asked for!! The room came with a tall dresser that allowed us to put the kids clothes away as well as my wifes. There was also a closet for you to hang your clothes. I always work out of the sui [... read more]t case. The bed was comfy and clean. The shower worked well with good water pressure and a nice size. The resort has a great water park for the kids and adults to have all day fun. Lazy river, water slides, tube water slide. apparently its a much better water park then the expensive Beaches just down the road. There are two other pools to choose. The swim up bar with a kids pool attached as well as a sports activity pool. although the hotel was full you had no idea it was. You didn't have to wake up and rush to claim a recliner. There were plenty of them around the pool area, in the water park, and on the beach. That being said the people were spread out and you didn't feel cramped or uneasy about finding a spot as there were lots to choose. The beach area is nice and has some small reefs you can swim close to and see plenty of fish. You can sign out a snorkel and mask as well. For little ones they have a small lie down floatee that has a clear bottom so your little one can see the fish if they can use a mask . The beach is about 200m or so. clean and soft on the feet. water was warm too! The food was good and especially the jerk chicken at the all night restaurant. The specialty restaurants were good with only having to make a reservation at the Japanese one. Staff were very friendly at all times and everywhere you went. The buffet restaurant was good with a large variety to choose from. The entertainment at night started usually around 830 so we didn't have time to check out all of it as my kids were tired by then. We did see the steel drum band which put on a good show. It would be nicer if some of the entertainment started around 730 so you if you had younger ones you could watch it. However we did learn that the kids club was open til 9 so we would feed the picky ones at the buffet then drop them off at the kids club and we would go out worry free and enjoy our dinner in peace. The kids club was excellent and worry free. First time we used it on a resort and it was great. lots of toys and activities for the kids. there is also a youths room with a pool table and video games room for them to stay in. Overall it was a great resort and worth the money paid!

Sunscape Splash: Perfect for a family vacation

We just returned from a family vacation involving 13 adults, ranging in age from 22 to 63, and six children between the ages of 3 and 7. Everyone had a tremendous time. The resort rooms were clean and spacious, the food was good to great and the service was outstanding. There was plenty of room at the beach and pools to accommodate all guests. The activities and shows were diverse for guests of all ages and interests. We strongly recommend this resort for those who are planning family vacat [... read more]ions.

Grand Decameron Montego Beach: Not a great resort

This was our second year at the Decameron and it was not as good as the first time. The food was not great but the staff were great. We saw a man die on the beach and the life guard tried so very hard to revive him but unfortunately it was to late. I did not see any management there to help his wife and other than the life guard there was only a guest giving mouth to mouth. I would have thought the resort would have had a defibrillator and there would have been a plan in place for such an event. [... read more] I would not want anything happening to me at that resort.

Coco La Palm: It was an excellent resort very clean and the rooms were huge! the beds were also very comfortable as I have a bad back and cannot usually get a pillow top bed in most resorts. The food on the resort was excellent as well and it was centrally located in Negril. The hotel staff were very accommodating to our needs. The resort put on a meet and greet with free drinks and ordervies and live music. I would not hesitate to return to CoCo La Palm again and enjoyed not having to do all inclusive!

The hotel was well kept as well as the grounds and lots of lawn chairs for everyone so you didn't have to fight to get one early in the morning. The showers in the room where large with two shower heads. The beds were pillow top and comfortable! There was a fridge and kitchenette in each room and a flat screen TV. There was also a balcony which was large with to chaise lounge chairs and a set of chairs and a table. The only negative thing thatvI can say is the the hot tub was broke during o [... read more]ur holiday as they have to wait for a replacement part.

Grand Decameron Montego Beach: Hotel needs renovation

Rooms were horrible. Tiles falling out the wall. Cable did not work. Water shuts off while taking a shower. Toilet does not flush. Water leaking.. overall room maintenance was nasty.... extremely disappointed and turned off from the rust and mold in corners and bathroom

Dreams Rose Hall: Thumbs Up

I enjoyed my stay. Great food, good beach, lots of open loungers at the pool and beach, mostly friendly staff, decent facilities, met lots of good people, fun water park. I'd for sure consider coming back at some point

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: Good Resort

This was my second time at this resort and I would definitely go back. The restaurants were great and there was always something to do throughout the day. The entertainment staff and fitness staff were also very good.

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: Royalton White Sands ... Best Fitness Program

Fitness program is amazing. They have yoga 2-3 times a day, TRX, bootcamp and more. Very challenging and fun. This is great because for some people, vacation is the opportunity to have the time to work out so this is great! Wish I did more.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Grand bahia principe

This was an excellent hotel and Resort. People were very kind and treated us excellent. The hotel was very well maintained and clean. I would pick another country next time due to want to different places. But I would book at the same resort.

Riu Ocho Rios: Very smelly rooms

Not a good resort at all. Our room had a very strong smell of mothball and towels very not clean at all. I had a very bad experience with a pillow cases and they were not clean at. On my last day I got food poisened by the resorts food. Do not stay at Riu at all.
