Samsara Cliff Hotel: Just what we needed

We really liked this resort. It was very small and we were left alone to relax. There was very few people staying at the resort. We just relaxed. We cliff jumping was fun and the infinity pool was glorious. The breakfast was really good. The drinks were not weak but wine was not included in the all inclusive. The staff was lovely and very helpful. We stayed in the garden cottages and it was spacious and lovely. It was sometimes noisy because the cottages are somewhat attatched to each other. Eve [... read more]rything was clean and the gardens were always well kept.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Vert Nice Resort

The hotel was clean, grounds well kept, beautiful beach, great food and drinks and lots of activities for kids and adults alike.Loved it! The only issue we had was the rude attitude we got from one of the girls in the Tour area of the hotel.

Riu Reggae: Very good resort

This was my first time at the Riu and the Riu Reggae was very good. The service was good, lots of different variety for food and being vegetarian there was a lot to choose from. The room was clean and comfortable. Beds changed every day. The resort is not big so everything is great walking distance including to the beach. Beach had seaweed in some area but overall it was great.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Family trip, group of 6

Beautiful views, mostly friendly staff with some outstanding members. Food was very good at buffets and a la cartes. Beaches were smaller but nice. Pool is huge and kept clean but too many areas in close proximity playing different loud music. Not enough loungers and the usual issue of towels draped to save seats and no people ever actually using the seats.No smoking policy completely ignored by many guests and not enforced by staff. Spending time at the pool resulted in breathing in second hand [... read more] cigarette smoke no matter where you sat...disgusting! Our room had a leak from the AC on the third night and maintenance was sent to repair it. On the 5th night we had water pouring from the ceiling at 4am. We had to threaten to sleep in the lobby before they agreed to move us. In our original room we were assigned a king and pullout for 2 adults and a child. The pullout was stuck and it took considerable force to open. No bedding or pillows at all for the pullout and no coverlet for the bed. It took almost 2 days and multiple requests to get bedding. My husband slept on the pullout with no pillow, no sheets and the only bath towel we were given, as a blanket. Our second room had a fully made pullout including a memory foam mattress pad. Some rooms get, some rooms don't, very inconsistent. The best entertainment during the week was the Silver Birds steel drum band. We have seen them twice before and still thoroughly enjoy their show. Amazing performers! Overall we had a great week because we were with family but the issues with the room did take away from the enjoyment and relaxation of the week. It shouldn't be expected that you pay that much for a vacation and end up sleepless and stressed out.

Azul Beach Resort Negril: Amazing resort!

My husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at this amazing resort! I can't say enough amazing things about it but I'll try ;) Extremely clean rooms and so is every single bathroom all over the resort! Zero mosquitoes, no bugs in the room nor balcony (apparently they spray the resort at night and amen for that!). Staff are all super nice, beautiful beach and beach huts, beautiful pools, excellent food, everything was absolutely PERFECT!

Ocean Eden Bay: Lovely resort

Service was amazing. Beach area small but food, choice of restaurants, atmosphere was great! Wish that the entertainment was outside vs indoors but the piano bar musician was amazing. Christine has a wonderful voice!

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Large Amazing Resort - Lacking Late Night Entertainment

The Bahia Principe is a very large resort, especially when taking into account the Luxury Accommodations. The rooms, however slightly dated, are large and well kept. During our stay we did have a few issues with the room - no lightbulb on the terrace, leaking shower, broken key card reader - however all these problems were dealt with efficiently and all fixed within few hours of notifying the front desk. The beach is absolutely gorgeous, and strategically located in a bay that shields the bea [... read more]ch from the stronger waves. The pool is large and is the home for the entertainment team who are wonderful. The buffet has a wide selection of good food, however the restaurants are truly amazing. A definite must try! The one downfall of this hotel was the lack of night time entertainment. At the lobby bar in the evening you could find live music however there was no show/entertainment. There was a stage at the Bahia Village and some locals told me there used to be entertainment/shows every night as well as a casino, however when the shows stopped the casino had to close. Luckily, we had thought to bring a deck of cards so we could entertain ourselves however many guests were not so lucky.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great People

The following people really made a difference for us and enhanced our vacation. Tyrel at the Knife Yusheka, Kemara and Shawnie from Picasso Ramon and Trisha from the Buffet. Also a very special thank you to Krista at the outside lobby bar and Orlando from Entertainment. Wonderful people for sure. The building and property are great but we will not return to this resort due to what we and many others felt was poor management, but we wish the staff well.

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: Very nice resort, a little dated.

The grounds are beautiful, pools are amazing. You are directly on beach, which is great! The staff are extremely pleasant and accomodating. The buffet was mediocre at best, with a lot of repeat items. Hunters Steakhouse was our favourite a' la carte. It is not a luxury experience but extremely enjoyable.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Disappointed

Check in was very smooth,but after that things went down hill.We arrived just after 4pm went to our room,had no blanket on bed,It took 3 phone calls to the lobby for them to finally bring one to our room(11pm)! The attitude from the front desk woman was very nonchalant,she proceeded to tell me she doesn't use a blanket on her bed. The buffets were good,could of been more fruit.The open terrace on the second level served wine in champagne glasses,they didn't have lime or mint for cocktails. Th [... read more]e adult pool was very nice,the main pool was also nice. The room was very dated,there was paint splatters on all the doors,ring marks on the counters that left stains,the tub was full of cracks. The grounds were nicely kept.Most staff very friendly some not! The entertainment was a joke! The beach was horrible,it was not inviting at all. So all in all I definitely will not be returning and will not recommend this resort. This was certainly not a 5 star resort.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Resort O.K

I went for the sun and beach and it didn't disappoint. This is my third time at this resort and will be my last. This time around we had the garden room, I was hoping to see tropical plants instead it was a parking lot. The room was clean but there are visible stains on the chairs and the cushions had a musky smell. The room was also very noisy and there were leaks in the hallway. I think that ash trays should be provided to people on the beach so they don't put their cigarette butts in the  [... read more]sand. The best meal we had was at the Mikado restaurant, the worst meal was at The Knife, we couldn't eat the meal. We mostly ate at Jazmin and the beach restaurants. The grounds are well kept and staff very friendly and helpful.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Big resort

This place is huge, lots of walking, lots of different pool & beach area's:). People are super friendly & happy. Food was ok. Ocean view room was spectacular:). Pillows were flat:( Bar fridge was nice:)

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great place for a family vacation

We really enjoyed the pool and the beach was huge and lovely. Staff were always pleasant and worked tirelessly to keep the hotel clean. The main buffet always had a good variety of well prepared dishes to suit all tastes and ages. The beach restaurant had the best jerk chicken and I ate it almost every day. Don Pablo a la carte restaurant was by far the best of the three we went to. I had the duck breast and it was perfectly cooked and delicious. Some reviews have complained that the hotel [... read more] is aging but we found the rooms and public areas very comfortable, well appointed and all of the mechanics worked. In all, it was a very pleasant vacation for a family group in this hotel

Riu Montego Bay: Great Resort

Everything was beautiful and very well done, from the grounds, to the accommodations to the food and the events. The only issue would be that the restrooms were located too far from the pools and many did not leave the swim up bar pool.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great food and entertainment!

We found this resort to be great for families. So much to do and see for the kids. Kind of felt like a week wasn’t enough time to do it all. The food was always fresh and a lot of variety. Staff are very nice and helpful. We had no issues during our stay. The only downside is that it is a bit older resort so the rooms seem old and could do with a refresh, especially the beds. I saw reviews about moldy carpets but I didn’t see anything like that. If you want to go to the a la carte restaurant [... read more]s you should book on the app before going. They fill up fast. Also, the app was very helpful to see the entertainment schedule and the map. We would go here again.

Ocean Eden Bay: Great local taste

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Interior decor in the rooms and restaurants is beautiful. Drinks is something that can be improved. Great music and lots of local charm. Rooms are missing robes but overall the experience is great. If you are looking for a relaxing stay with lots of local culture this place has it all.

Ocean Eden Bay: Amazing resort

We had an amazing time. No complaints. Rooms and restaurants were beautifully decorated. Service was excellent. Staff so friendly. Food was really good. Entertainment very good nightly. Large pool. Lots of chairs. Would definitely return.

Grand Palladium Jamaica: Great ressort

The ressort is very clean but it could use some renovations in the rooms as well as the outside cobblestones. The staff starting from the reception, restaurants, entertainment and room service was extremely friendly and pleasant. The food was very good with a variety of cuisines to choose from the buffet to the a la carte restaurans. The beaches could be a little cleaner with all the leaves falling from the trees.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Had better 4+*

The hotel is clean. Its outdated. The beach is mostly rocky bays. We were not impressed with a la carte restaurant that we cacelled our last 2. Bar did not have all the basic liquors and they didnt have any limes or mint. Staff said "not in season". Pools were nice. We had brought floating tubes and wanted to go around the pool but they are all blocked under the bridges. So you had to get out and walk to the next section of the pool. It was our first time at a 5*and we were expecting a little be [... read more]tter except it wasn't. Most 4 1\2 I went (including one in Jamaica) were a lot better.

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: I would not recommend Royalton White Sands

This resort has been a complete disappointment 🙁 Shower door would not close Bath tub plug missing and water pressure so low I couldn’t run a bath. Sewage smell in the room at all times Patio door very hard to open/close Beach towels always out so spent most of the days without. Butler service doesn’t answer messages Waiter service disappointing, never cutlery or glasses for water, servers don’t check check on you. When tip is given, receive no thank you or smile.
