Catalonia Montego Bay: Holiday Inn resort mobay jamaica

Our family, two adults from Alberta, three adults from here with a teenager went to the Holiday Inn resort. We found the food awesome, drinks flowed, and staff professional. Special shout out to entertainment staff Theron, excellent driver Mike M. Who took us to our excursions, wait staff Odaine and Ewan and all the great housekeeping people. The rooms were clean, bathrooms small ( who cares) pools fabulous. Drawbacks wifi touchy, main food area loud, and poor entertainment for adults in the ev [... read more]ening. All in all it was a good trip.

Couples Swept Away: Beautiful place!

This hotel is on the most perfect part of seven mile beach. The resort is very well kept, the rooms are slightly dated but still nice and clean. The beds are on the firm side. The food was surprisingly delicious with a wide variety of options. The activities that are included are fantastic, especially the catamaran cruise! Most of the staff is very friendly. There are vendors on the beach that do try to engage but they do leave you alone if you say you are not interested. Overall, fantastic stay [... read more]! Highly recommend.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great resort

Nice rooms just a little tired, great view and awesome food. Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful. Our only complaint was the elevator. We were on the 7th floor and the one elevator was soooo slow.

Grand Palladium Jamaica: One of the top resorts

Recently undergone renovations.We were there five years ago and what a difference ,All for the better.Fantastic staff.Try as I may I can not think of anything that we didn't like.Actually there is one thing.The way you are hounded by staff trying to get you to take an excursion,go to the Spa or take a two hour tour of the facility for a few token gifts.

Grand Pineapple Beach: nice spot on the beach

many repeat customers loving this place. small size for an AI, nothing fancy, but very cosy. felt safe and welcome here. everyone had fun together. staff were pleasant and relaxed. good variety of food, no issues and i appreciated seeing local items. hope the grand pineapple stays put for a long time.

Sandals Jamaica Ocho Rios: Great Resort!

The best feature of Ochi is the staff. Always inclusive and making sure your having a great time. The grounds are beautifully kept as well as one of the beach areas. Food was very good as was the drinks. My only negative comment is on check in we did not get the room we paid for. They did fix it but this seemed to be a common problem amongst many people we talked to. As well the rooms are quite small.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Overall a great and relaxing getaway at the Lady Hamilton

We just got back from the Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton and overall we had a great time. Below is some of my pros and cons Pro: Staff very nice and friendly Layout of resort to be easy and walk-able Pool area nice and clean. Beach area was nice ( a little small) Sunset cove area was amazing (quiet and not as windy) Restaurants we very good. My favs was the Creole, Chez Bubba and Poseidon. You need to go to the Jerk Hut at Sunset Cove. Worth the walk! The lounge area is a great place t [... read more]o go and relax after dinner. Nice entertainment and cozy chairs to sit in and watch. Cons (But not deal breakers): Room took a while to get cleaned. Usually our room was not cleaned until close to 4 pm. We found some of the restaurants a little cold so you may need to bring something to keep you warm unless you sit outside. If you have younger children be leery of the the night time shows. We found them to be a little too much for our 6 year old to watch. Also, if you want to be closer to the main pool area and lounge try to Villa 27,28. If you want to be near Sunset Cover and a more quieter area of the resort try Villa 35,36. Again not too much of a walk but if you have small children and prefer not to carry them after a long day/evening Villa 27,28 might be better for you.

Riu Reggae: Just a fantastic place

We stayed in April at Riu Reggae and had great temperature the whole week .The staff are great people and make your stay even better .The rooms are nothing fancy but new ,kept clean ,spacious and had 4 bottles of liquor so no complains there and we had a garden view by the fence that turned out to be a great ocean view from the top floor and we saw lots of cruise ships go by at night .The grounds are also well kept with lots of fresh trees and plants but will be better when fully grown (still ne [... read more]w).And for the food well we had lobster ,shrimp, steak ,and lots of jerk chicken and all the salads you can imagine and all the desserts you could imagine,,,,really something for everybody...All the workers even the security where very friendly and wanted you to fell welcomed Thank you to all of you xo ...Don't miss the beach party on Sundays ,great time. And they do free tie die on the beach but you can give a donation ,well worth it . Oh and if you need transportation or private tours call Neville ..the best and very respectful...would definitely recommend Neville and the hotel to friends

Grand Pineapple Beach: Nice little gem

We had a fabulous time at Grand Pineapple. Loved that it was a smaller resort, beachside cottage was great as everything was close by. Was a bit loud at times so I recommend earplugs for those of us that have trouble sleeping, which I was prepared for and it was fine. Rooms were clean, staff was great, helped us with anything we needed, i.e. hair dryer was missing, best to check everything in the room right away. Security on the beach could've been a bit better but they did step in if vendor [... read more]s didn't leave someone alone. They thought I was walking the beach alone at one point and stopped to check in with me which my boyfriend appreciated, so I guess it's not recommended you do that by yourself but I did see women walking alone, I didn't feel unsafe at any point. Beach was beautiful, sunsets spectacular. Lots of chairs, still got out at a decent time if you want a certain spot as people still do take the prime locations if you want shade, but all in all wasn't a problem. Unfortunately there were no floatation devices supplied so people brought there own or bought them and left them so we ended up with a couple that got left on the beach. Food was pretty good, few things looked and tasted like they were out of a box, but all in all no complaints, there was fish, chicken and pork most nights along with other things. Patties only showed up twice, I think most would like to see more of that, but my guess is they want to support the vendors on the beach selling them. Would've liked to see more fresh fruit. Salads were good and nice choice of desserts each day only they need more as some items would run out if you waited too long. Stayed away from the cheap booze as it didn't work for me, but thoroughly enjoyed the pinacoladas and banana shakes made with fresh fruit, far better than some of the bigger resorts. Would be nice if wifi was included, but we just paid for it as we needed it. We would stay there again, great place for those who like a smaller resort and are more into the beach than the pool. Crossing guards were great and always there to help. We didn't venture out of the resort as we enjoyed just hanging out there, some of the live music was good, but don't expect a lot of nightlife in this place, it's more of a chill out kinda place and the guests there were all about the same, only a few kids, good crowd, no one got carried away. There's an option of going to Alfred's bar next door but didn't check it out, it can get really loud late a night but it wasn't as bad as some reviews made it out to be. Earplugs also helped out with the rooster and tree frogs lol.

Royalton Hideaway Negril: Awesome Resort

We arrived 3 weeks after they opened and considering staff was still learning, we had a Fantastic time. The resort has so much to offer something for everyone. The food preparation at the Buffet was top notch. So many choices for everyone. The restaurants on site had fantastic food. Service in the restaurants was slow but hey you're in Jamaica and everything is a bit slower. They have a Sports bar that becomes a disco later in the night. The coffee bar made great lattes, espressos and cappu [... read more]ccinos. They had a soft serve ice cream machine that was a hit with the kids and adults. They had non-motorized paddle boots, standup boogie boards, single or double kayaks and tons of life jackets. The beach was the best, clean and you could walk out quite far. Lots of lifeguards and security around too. We had an oceanfront room with a king sized bed. In room fridge was well stocked. Hubby loved the jacuzzi tub! We knew we were in for a great time when we arrived and saw the escalator!!

Riu Reggae: Loved this resort!

This resort is close to the airport which is a bonus!!! It is very new & modern, nice and clean, the service was great, the food was great, everyone was friendly. I am so glad I chose this resort. I typically do not like going to the same resort but for this one I will be returning soon.

Grand Decameron Montego Beach: Great week at Royal Decameron

We had a great time at this hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Food was plentiful and very good. The beach is nice the property is very well kept and the view daily is awesome. Rooms are a good size with a great balcony. The only negative it would be nice to have a fridge in each room.we will return to this resort.

Riu Negril: Rui beach club Negril Jamaica

The hotel property was very clean. Main pool with swim up bar got pretty gross daily . All the other pools were very clean . The bartenders and waiters all very friendly. The buffet was very good always lots of food lots of variety . Only one restraunt was alla Cart. And it was very good . Asia was buffet Italian and French just main coarse was served . Sports bar had cold sandwiches and pop corn 24 hours so if you wanted something late at night not much choice. Activity staff worked very [... read more] hard to keep guests entertained .

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: Beautiful family resort

This is a five star all the way. Gorgeous beach, lovely staff, gourmet cuisine. You will not be disappointed. Third time to Jamaica and this resort outshines the others. Be sure to say hello to Mark (the food and beverage manager) Amazing and gracious man.

Riu Reggae: Riu Reggae was great!

We had a gardenview room. The room itself was updated and clean! The bed was king size and was very comfortable. We were on the second floor, the view from the balcony was not great but it didn't really matter cos when you think about it your not in the room for long The girls that clean the room did a great job!! The service in the restaurants was great! . I will definitely be going back when I return to Jamaica!

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Amazing Resort Apr 5 - 12

We were very impressed with this resort. We had paid for a sea view suite, but were upgraded to an oceanview with corner balcony on a higher floor. The views were magnificent. All the hotel staff went over and above to make sure we were happy and and were so friendly. I have to say that the food was probably the best we've had at any of the all-inclusives we've been to, so tasty with all the spices and so flavourful and we could not get enough of the jerk chicken. Would definitely recommend  [... read more]this resort and will come back for sure. We loved it.

Grand Decameron Cornwall Beach: Ocean view all rooms!

Because of the ocean (all rooms have it) and the quick easy Beach, buffet, and a la carte access (just steps from our room), we liked this resort much better than the huge resort complexes we have visited in the past (Barcelo, Dreams,etc). Especially with small kids no need to lug stuff around and take trams from here to there within the resort. Also never got an ocean view before at larger resorts because of the price, but here we were pleasantly surprised to find all rooms have a beautiful oce [... read more]an view. The water is so clear and the waves are pretty gentle, warm, excellent with small kids. Also the free snorkeling equipment and reef area is lovely, can see the reef and fish without even needing a snorkel, at ankle/waist depth. Great water sports all included free and always available immediately due to small size of the resort, lovely catamaran rides, kayak, paddle board, wind surfing. Food at a la carte was amazing, buffet nice omlets/pancakes/waffles/fruits etc on the morning; pasta/jerk chicken very nice as well. Great information on ingredients from buffet staff for allergies and accommodation of recipes at a la carte, however would avoid all desserts with a nut allergy as creme brulet at a la carte was supposed to be nut free but came with a nutty chocolate on top (luckily we guessed it was unsafe and avoided it).

Grand Decameron Cornwall Beach: Excellent overall

Small hotel with everything very close. Beach, buffet area, bar, pool etc only a few steps away. Helpful staff. Good water sport activities. Food was good, would have loved to see more seafood options. Not very nut allergy friendly, staff didn't seem very knowledgeable on contamination etc.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great resort

Went with my grandson in April and loved the resort. Grounds were beautiful, the food was good, and the beach was greAt for kids.On the negative side they run out of drinks in bars, all carpets in hallways are filthy, and you have to ask for face cloths. All in all great resorts for families but for couples I would suggest somewhere else.

Sandals Jamaica South Coast: Amazing staff

Was an awesome resort... Only issue I had was the constant u p selling ... When you Pay $8000 for a week at an all inclusive resort these should be included. No motorized water was a bummer to. All staff were fantastic, friendly as well as polite.
