Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Beautiful Resort!

Please ignore the bad reviews! Just got back from the Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton April 26 and I can confirm the resort is up and running at a 100%. The grounds are beautiful! The food is top notch along with the drinks! The staff are amazing hard working people! Sunset beach is beautiful and no seagrass! You would never know a hurricane hit this resort in October. I would definitely return!!!

Ocean Coral Spring: Resort is great but the housekeeping is not!!!

we loved the resort the food and everything. But we didn't find housekeeping very helpful, on our reservation we requested a crib for our 16 months old and for two nights we didn't get one i had to call the resort multiple times to realize they didn't reserved it for our room and we have to wait for somebody to check out so they can give it to us. it was crazy two nights sleeping with an infant( he never slept with us in the same bed since he is born so you can imagine)

Riu Reggae: Wonderful Holiday

Almost everything about this resort is fantastic. The food was great including the presentation, the entertainment group was enthusiastic and amusing and the shows were wonderful although some were a bit too loud but still enjoyable. Our room was clean and the cleaning staff worked hard at keeping this standard. The beach is long... covering all 3 Riu resorts. Would recommend water shoes as there are areas in the ocean covered by weeds. But overall had a great time. I do have 2 complaints tho [... read more]ugh and that is although this resort is 5 minutes from the airport it does mean that it is very noisy with the planes flying overhead quite often... especially on weekends. Loud enough that conversations need to be paused until the plane has passed. And lastly, the tap water is not drinkable and water and bar fridge is only restocked every other day. Having said that, if water is required it is easy enough to get from the front desk. Just wish the water, was delivered every day. Due to the close proximity to the airport and the accompanying noise I unfortunately would not recommend this resort. If that isn't a problem for you then you'll have a great time.

Riu Ocho Rios: Perfect for a family getaway!

My recent Sunwing vacation to RIU Ocho Rios in Jamaica was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The entire experience was smooth, enjoyable, and perfect for a family getaway. Our flight out with WestJet went really well, and the free Wi-Fi was a huge bonus—it kept my 5-year-old happily entertained throughout the journey, which made a big difference. When we arrived, the tour operator, Nexxus Tours, was ready and waiting for us. They quickly got us organized, onto a bus, and on our way  [... read more]to the resort without any hassle. A special thank you goes to Nekoda, also known as “Koko,” our host. He was incredible from the very beginning, taking great care of us and making sure we had the best possible experience. His kindness and attention truly stood out, and he left a lasting, positive impression on my 5-year-old. Thank you, Koko, for making our trip so special. Our stay at the RIU was also excellent. The staff across the board—from check-in, to housekeeping, to the restaurant teams—were all friendly, welcoming, and a pleasure to interact with. The resort itself was clean, well-maintained, and very family-friendly. Overall, I highly recommend this vacation. It was a wonderful experience, and we came home with great memories.

Princess Grand Jamaica: Awesome resort!

This resort was spacious and clean. The decor was fresh and inviting Staff were courteous, friendly and helpful beyond expectations. Good variety of entertainment options and also many areas to relax peacefully while enjoying the beautiful scenery. Pools were fabulous but the beach is not natural and needs a lot more work to be enjoyable.

Azul Beach Resort Negril: 30th wedding anniversary

We wanted peace on the island we said I do Jamaica. This resort is just that calm peaceful and food good don’t listen to people. it’s not 5 start but 4 I’d say. Freshing up needed in rooms some fresh paint and new bedding some pictures and it would be five star. People are kind helpful and fun. They truly work hard and it shows they care about guest who stay here. Loved our vacation and would return to the Azul. One thing it has not best entertainment at this place. Besides that it’s go [... read more]od great beach and food had tinges of selections And no bugs a plus

Riu Palace Tropical Bay: Great Resort!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Riu Tropical, beautiful beach. The grounds were well maintained and the staff were all so kind and helpful. The food was really good, many varieties to choose from. Definitely going to return.

Ocean Coral Spring: Great Resort!

Loved the resort! The food was amazing and had a good assortment! The pool was amazing and staff were great! Not enough entertainment at night! The beach not so much ! It was rocky which we knew ahead of time ! Had a great holiday!

Sunset at the Palms: Great vacation destination!

The staff was amazing. Shout out to Bianca, Kristina, Lynette, Devina, Aneesha and the rest of the staff!! Beautiful palms and comfortable tree house cottages, truly beautiful! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quiet place to unwind. Reggae night was a great addition.

Azul Beach Resort Negril: underwhelming...

Overall, this resort delivers a decent all-inclusive experience, but it falls short in a few areas that are hard to ignore given the location. The beach is absolutely the highlight—wide, clean, and exactly what you’d hope for. It really lives up to expectations and is easily the best part of the stay. The rooms, on the other hand, are just okay. They’re functional and reasonably comfortable, but nothing stands out or feels particularly updated. Our room was fine but spoke to a lot of people the [... read more]re who complained about no hot water. Food was inconsistent. Some meals were enjoyable, but others missed the mark. The most reliable option ended up being the Mahogany buffet at the far end of the resort, where there always seemed to be something decent available and the fireside grill for lunch. Dining elsewhere felt more like a gamble. Entertainment was underwhelming and didn’t add much to the overall experience. It lacked energy and variety, which made evenings feel a bit dull. The Moulin Rouge and Michael Jackson shows were the only real entertainment during the week with the rest being mostly just a DJ. That said, the staff truly stood out and made a positive difference throughout the stay. Everyone was friendly and attentive, but a special mention goes to Safari & Rashika at the main bar, Kevon from the concierge team, Travis on the beach, and Anna Kay at the coffee bar, who all went above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. One of the bigger issues was the overall maintenance of the property. For a resort in such a prime location, it really should be in better condition. The resort’s decking had several broken and loose boards that created trip hazards and require attention. It appears the decking issues are not caused by the hurricane but by lack of upkeep and repair. In the end, if you’re not particularly picky or high-maintenance, you’ll probably have a fine time here, especially if your main goal is to enjoy the beach. But given the location and price, there’s a lot of room for improvement.

Azul Beach Resort Negril: Not A Luxury Resort

Let me first start off saying that this is NOT a luxury resort. It is a 3.5 star resort at best. The staff on hand are actually very friendly and accommodating. The beach is fantastic. You can’t go wrong in Negril on Seven Mile Beach. The pools are small and the decking throughout the resort needs serious repair with a lot of trip hazards. I want to be clear. The deck issues are not due to the hurricane. The deck issues are due to poor maintenance on the resorts part. The food was subpar at [... read more] best. The only food that was consistently decent was the buffet at Mahogany, and the Oceanside Grill. We paid extra to be in a swim up room in one of the Adult blocks of the hotel. We were placed in the family block. The only time there was a possibility to change rooms was with 3 days left in our vacation. At that point we did not want to pack up, go to a different block to unpack and pack again in 3 days time to leave. The entertainment was just ok. The Moulin Rouge and Micheal Jackson shows were good, but the rest of the nightly entertainment consisted of pretty much a DJ. Bars close at 10 with the Nesta Rasta lounge staying open until 1 am. Negril, its beaches and its people are amazing. We will definitely go back, but we will never go to the Azul again, and we will never recommend it to anyone. While all the staff were friendly, there are certain staff members who should be singled out. Safari at the main bar is the best bartender at the resort. There was also Rushika who was fantastic at the main bar as well. Kevon in the concierge staff went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable. Anna Kay at the coffee bar and Oceanside grill always had a smile on her face, and Travis, the beach “butler” was always quick to get you drinks and very friendly. We also enjoyed the off resort excursion with Captain Sheldon Hines. He’s extremely friendly and knowledgeable on the Island’s history. All in all, there are a lot of resorts to choose from on one of the best beaches in the world. Azul needs to up their game if they want to be considered as a luxury destination. For the cost to stay at this resort, it is not worth the price you pay.

Princess Senses the Mangrove: 10 out of 10 resort

Have travelled extensively throughout the Caribbean and Jamaica and this resort is 2nd to none. The grounds are immaculate, accommodations are large clean and every room has an ocean or pool view (stayed on the Mangrove/Adults side). The resort was at 85% - 90% occupancy and never seemed busy. Always plenty of chairs at the pools, no line ups at the buffets and loved the food selection. No reservations required for the Ala Carte restaurants (expect for one), which was great. The real differen [... read more]ce here, is the staff who are so pleasant and welcoming. Will be back next year for sure.

Fun Holiday Beach Resort: Simple, yet amazing !

Spent 7 days at Fun Holiday , and with all the research we did, it was exactly expected. We aren't into the whole 5 star thing anymore as we like to experience real culture. This little hotel gave us that , and then some. The food was good , although a small selection... we were never hungry and there are a tonne of good spots to eat 10 min each way up and down the beach. Take a trip to the grocery store 10 min away and grab some booze incase they run out and you'll be good! Also we didn't [... read more] use the pool , but why would you when there's a gorgeous beach ? 10/10 view of the ocean 10/10 staff 8/10 food/drink 7/10 room conditions My only complaint is that the bed wasn't comfortable, no box spring , the bed just sat on a metal frame. The bathroom fixtures were out dated and a bit raggity, but who cares ... everything worked fine! Overall experience 9/10 Would definitely return

Couples Sans Souci: Can’t wait to go back

From the moment we got to the Couples lounge we were promptly greeted, bags looked after, shuttle to hotel was comfortable, we were treated so well the entire trip! Our room was perfect, food was amazing. Shout out to our amazing house keeper in D block Ivaney, she kept our room so organized and clean and was so kind to us. Shout out to Taj at the beach grill for cooking up awesome meals and teaching us about Jamaican cuisine and culture. Thanks Couples we will be back

Ocean Coral Spring: Good choice

Over all I was happy with the choice of this resort. The al le cart restaurants were all really good but they booked up really fast. The market buffet had alot of variety but it was the same food every day. It would had been nice if they changed it up. The rooms were clean. The pools were nice. The entertainment was fine.

Riu Ocho Rios: Pros and cons

Pros Beautiful grounds Beautiful beach Beautiful rooms Excellent friendly staff Close to Ochos Rios Close to excursions Requests for room service are honored promptly Cons One very overpriced shop Tiny busy buffet with poor selection

Couples Swept Away: Absolutely Swept Away

We had a wonderful vacation at Couples Swept Away Negril for seven wonderful days. The people, the grounds, the accommodations and of course the beach were amazing. I would highly recommend this resort and will book again in the future.

Couples Tower Isle: Fantastic Resort

Couples Tower resort is a great size for getting around. It’s not too large and doesn’t feel like it’s overcrowded. The resort bars, restaurant (breakfast, lunch and buffet dinners) have good ocean side views. The ala-cart restaurants that require reservations were really good, good food and options on menu. All water activities are included with resort (so no fees!) The rooms could use a facelift with headboards and furniture as it’s older and made room smell moldy. The balcony view of ga [... read more]rdens were very cool and private, kinda like a rain forest, very picturesque and tranquil. The beach is small but water is clear and good swimming and snorkeling.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Beautiful

This was a quick 5 day vacation to start our 25 year anniversary celebrations. Room was ready at 3pm as stated when we booked. The resort had just reopened from hurricane damage 5 days before we arrived. There are still some hiccups to work out but that being said it is a beautiful resort with very friendly helpful staff. Lamar and crazy leg are the men to see for beach volleyball twice a day. They are quite the entertainers. Rooms are very large and clean. This was only our 2nd time at a resor [... read more]t as we usually book air B&Bs and do our own vacation. But it was quite nice to just sit back relax and just take it all in. I think if I was to do an all inclusive again this resort would probably be top of my choices.
