Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Great Time

Wonderful hotel and location. Would recommend it to my friends. Not happy with Air Canada Beach was beautiful. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was fantastic and the service to the room was very good as well

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Decent resort but not a 5*

Nice large hotel, with mixed guests UK,Canada, US and local. Rooms: Large, comfy, AC worked well, good water pressure in shower! Staff: Very friendly and helpful Pools: great! Beach: sucks/useless. Need more sand. too rocky, too small. not enough space to swim in ocean. Food: On the positive, lots of local/Jamaican cuisine, which often is not common at resorts. Otherwise the food was mediocre. Tried 3 of the specialized restaurants, staff was good food medium to poor. Ended up sticking w [... read more]ith the buffet. Booze. all cheap local except at lobby bar. Often ran out of international/premium brands. No mint all week for Mojito. Entertainment was good.

Sandals Ochi Beach Resort: Absolutely Amazing ❤️❤️❤️

Sandals Ochi is a great resort. Very clean and well kept. You have to sanitize before going into any facility or restaurant on site. We had a butler suite and I want to give a big shout out to Dennis and Danrick for amazing service and helping to make our anniversary special.They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed .The entertainment was also good and kept us entertained. I would recommend Sandals Ochi to anyone and I look forward to returning again soon.❤️❤︠[... read more]â¤ï¸

Azul Beach Resort Negril: Run down resort

Where to begin - to keep it short, this resort has so much potential, but unfortunately the ownership cares more about the money then the resort itself. The beach is absolutely stunning and along side the fantastic staff of servers, cleaners, bartenders, cleaners and entertainment crew they are the shining light that keeps this place open. Other than that the resort overall is in a desperate need of makeover and most of all the food needs to be better. Very small selection at either buffet. Food [... read more] is over cooked and the staff is over worked. Little to none Jamaican food to be offered. The restaurants were disappointing -as the staff did the best they could with the ingredients that were made available to them. The main lunch bar (garfields) went from being open daily serving Jamaican food to a disappointing 3 days on the weekend only. We only found this out when we got to the resort. This was not on AC website nor Azuls website - we were quite upset about this as it was one of the only things we were looking forward to having. The ownership staff was on the resort and were too busy having meetings and enjoying the free food and room to care about the issues with the resort as nothing was resolved during their visit. I first had witnessed upper management see a puddle of water pooling in the buffet which is a potential hazzard for the staff and guests and did nothing about it when it was shown to him. We are in no way hard to please people and always keep an open mind when visiting any resort or destination. However when you are charging the prices that Azul is charging for a so called 5 star resort and only delivering with 2 star accommodations and food then that is where we have an issue. Until there is a major change with the upkeep of the resort, the food and the ownership staff we will not be returning or recommend this hotel.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Amazing resort. Will be returning.

Had a wonderful experience with every Staff member we incountered. We used the hotel for one day of excursions and a private driver for another day of excursions. Elevators were on and off. Lots of stairs to get to top floor. Al la carts were amazing. Buffets were amazing. Beach was beautiful. Upgraded to luxury day pass for the last 2 days. Their staff is miserable except at the al la carts. There's an extra flight of stairs to climb if elevators aren't working. Drinks are very light. Pools are [... read more] shady. Very quiet. More for the older generation. God forbid you smoke a doobie on luxury side lol. The beach is small af. Their buffet sucked. No outdoor buffet there so people who have rooms there have to walk to grand side. Grand side entertainment is better. The entertainment crew was absolutely amazing. Particularly Tiffany and tt and kedar. Denzel at the pool bar grand side is amazing. Fabian is the best bellhop. I got stung by a bee and. I'm allergic. He turned a golf cart into an ambulance to bring me to the nurse. Had a wonderful experience with her and she took good care of me. Ended up not having to go to the hospital thank God. Overall good experience. Stay on the grand side not luxury. Our view on the grand side was beautiful. Block 11. Food 10/10 Staff 10/10 Excursions 10/10 Drinks 10/10 Wine 10/10 Nurse10/10 Luxury 2/10

Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall: AMAZING RESORT!

We went to this resort on the recomendation of our travel agent, Saskia. This was beyond anything we were expecting. The hotel was spotless, the rooms were incredible, the service was 10 stars and the food was exceptional. The people there were out of this world. Anything, everything you wanted 24/7 they were there for you tips or no tips. Tips of course were preferred, but either way they were there to make your stay a most memorable one, and that it was.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Well travelled Prior to 2017. First trip since Pandemic

The resort was kept clean and maintained. The gardeners always working, staff always clearing dishes. There were no towel games at this resort. get your towel cards and then exchange towels as needed. We did not encounter issues with acquiring lounge chairs - but we also did alot of private excursions off resort. Staff were friendly and helpful with our off resort access and re-entries. We really enjoyed the Mediterranean Restaurant. The guy running the show there was accommodating and kep [... read more]t his staff organized and like a little machine. Food was tremendous at this restaurant. Both my boyfriend and I really enjoyed the food at this a la carte. Staff are very cordial, helpful and not rude throughout the resort. We didn't really use Butler service. We were originally assigned the wrong room, that got corrected on the first day. We asked for extra towels etc and they were provided with no issue. room service portions are small so make sure you order accordingly. The resort has a good layout and is easy to traverse. We did not attend evening entertainment. beach is small - also went to the Grand side beach and it was not impressive - so we stayed on our side. The food is decent. we found that the Jazmin buffet was much better than the buffet by the beach for selection. We are not pool people - so I have no comment on the pool - other than they seem big and people seemed to enjoy them. Its about an hour commute to the airport Issues with the resort booking a la cartes were not always available. The Tapanyaki restaurant is not open every night and our vacay was only from Fri to Tues - so we did not have an opportunity to book. My boyfriend is Brazilian and we did the Brazilian buffet. We expected it to not be authentic Brazilian. But their salads side bar didn't even have rice or beans, but they did have Greek salad? The meat did not really come to the table very often. best to expect to go to this restaurant for an evening dinner out - but to also hit the buffet the same night or order room service. Drinks are terribly slow anywhere you go for buffet or restaurants - so order them as soon as you arrive or you might get them as you are leaving. Our ceiling in our room leaked (room 25718) we didn't complain about it. to sign out snorkel gear - you have to walk to the grand beach side .... $50 USD CASH only per person and that is just snorkel and mask - no fins. AND you can ONLY sign them out at 9:30am and 1:30pm. Best just to bring your own and save the hassle. So, no major complaints; just some silly stuff.

Catalonia Montego Bay: A great Vacation

We spent 10 days at this resort. The rooms were clean, although slightly out dated. The food was excellent, a very good choice with some catering to gluten and lactose free. The specialty restaurants did not disappoint! A special mention to Jodi at the front desk, who went above and beyond for us, and to Dave the night manager who made a big impression on us, never faltering in is quiet, kget things done attitude. He is awesome!

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Nice Family Getaway

The resort is a beautiful property about an hour away from the airport, so brace yourself for the ride. The pool and beach were amazing and beautiful. Property is clean and well maintained. Friendly staff. I was glad to see the hotel being painted during my stay. Would recommend upgrading the bathrooms. Food was good, enough variety for everyone. Didn’t notice any COVID restrictions, however, hand hygiene required before going into the main dining room and restaurants.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: You don’t even get what you paid for - you get less

Overall the hotel/resort is huge. Lots of walking to get from venue to venue. Walk to pool is reasonable however to restaurants and other locations it takes effort and time. Overall grounds m, pool and beach and the hotel common areas are very well kept. The rooms are dated and lean towards run down. The bathrooms were clean and the modern part of the room. Showers hot and powerful. In room service was poor. Buffet is average and ran out of food all the time. Restaurant booking is a pain if your [... read more] can even book. Food in Alacart is better than average but slow. Service at bar is hit and miss. Ran out of beverages , limited premium and many didn’t know drink variation and didn’t want to spend anytime figuring it out. Overall service was poor. There is a don’t care attitude that is all around. There were a few employees that went the extra mile to put a smile on your face but for everyone that did 4 others would take that smile away quickly. I would not recommend this resort. Find another option. Don’t go based on price and don’t waste money on upgrading. If you do go you’ve been warned. Expect to get the bare minimum. If you like pools and an ok beach and sometimes service it’s the place for you.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Yes

I was very disappointed because I book through a travel agent. He booked for a double bed and when we arrived Daneka the receptionist at the front said that she is seeing a single bed, we had to pay the $7.00 per day for 7 days total of $49.When I talk with my agent he was very upset that we paid because clearly on your website it said double bed, that left a bad taste with us

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Lacking in Luxury

We booked the Luxury side; unfortunately it lacked in luxury. Only one day of 10 for turn down service, always asking for wash clothes, bath mats, no robes/slippers, ran out of premium liqueurs/liquors at luxury bars, limited bar service at luxury beach. Staff was great, food - especially Jamaican cuisine was great. The good beach is on the Grand side - loooong walk.

Samsara Cliff Hotel: Will stay here again. Great value for money. Highly recommend.

ROOMS: Love at first sight. We were in the Sea Vuz units on the first floor, steps away from the infinity pool with spectacular views of the cliffs. Modern, clean. Just bring your own hair dryer, body wash and so on.  SERVICE: We were very happy - friendly, attentive staff. Tina was a standout - she noticed the details (our names, anticipated our needs and so on). MEALS/DRINKS: Hearty, delicious meals. Wide selection on slower evenings when they did the al la carte dinners and lunches. R [... read more]ivaled meals at larger, pricer all inclusives. More variety can easily be found in the local restaurants in the area if desired. Wide variety of drinks on the all inclusive menu.  CLEANLINESS: Spic and span. Always someone cleaning around the property. VIEWS: Stunning views of the cliffs, but there is an opportunity for beach views at sister property Legends. A free shuttle goes there twice a day. 

Iberostar Selection Rose Hall Suites: Amazing experience

We had a fabulous time at the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites. The facilities were incredible and very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. The beach and pools were beautiful. Well worth the extra money to stay at the Suites rather than the other Iberostar property for families. Food was plentiful and fine (not amazing but satisfactory). Enjoyed the entertainment as well.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Beautiful Resort!

Stunning resort with incredible pools, gorgeous beach with fine white sand and blue waters. Rooms are very roomy but a bit dated and the finishes are not perfect, but the service throughout the resort was excellent, very friendly and polite staff, always happy and helpful! Food was good, especially at the Italian restaurant (Poseiden) and seafood restaurant, but lobster and premium seafood were at additional costs. The other a la carte restaurants were average. Surprisingly, the buffet was excel [... read more]lent, perhaps better than the a la carte's. All in all, a fabulous place for a vacation, especially if you have children, lots of fun things to do. We stayed at the Lady Hamilton (the adjoining adult, sister hotel) and it was beautiful. Highly recommend this hotel.

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Great resort with friendly staff

A plethora of activities to choose from in a safe and well groomed facility. I am grateful for Mr. Graham' (from tripcentral) recommendation. The ambience was fantastic and lots of dining choices. This location will be on my vacation inventory for the future

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Amazing Resort

We had an amazingly great time. Staff were respectful, helpful and pleasant! We would definitely go back! I was there in March and decided upon my return home, in March, that I must book another trip to Bahia ASAP! This the reason we booked our trip in July! Money well spent!

Ocean Eden Bay: Wonderful staff and hotel.

This was a beautiful modern resort with many amenities. The staff members went out of their way to help with everything. It was very clean and quite often you could see the staff washing the floors and other surfaces. Everything smelled clean as well. I was completely impressed with the choices for restaurants and buffets. The Steak House was incredible. Bluemoon was a very elegant restaurant with many choices of well-prepared food. The Captains Market had a large variety of food throughout t [... read more]he day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was very clean and organized. There were often cooks there to prepare fresh omelets in the morning or steaks or fish on the grill for your lunch or dinner menu. Finally, they had someone there to make a fresh smoothie in the morning. If you stay at the Ocean Eden you can also take advantage of all the restaurants and facilities at the other hotel adjacent to Ocean Eden. So there was no lack of food or entertainment or drinks. The entertainment company called Blueline was unbelievable. Every single staff member went out of their way to entertain and make everyone feel at home. Every evening there was entertainment either outside or in the beautiful Senses theatre. At the pool, during the day, they had activities going on and they had an incredible way with people. I felt like I had known them my whole life. They went way out of their way to get to know everyone. We were greeted warmly at each encounter. The bartenders are amazing as well. They can prepare a variety of drinks and are always happy to meet your needs with a warm friendly smile. There were plenty of lounge chairs and shaded areas around the pool and at the beach. They were kept very clean. The beach is very nice although there are some parts that have some rocks that you need to walk around. But, it’s very easy to do. We were in the water every day and the breeze was incredible. We will go back.

Couples Negril: Wonderful resort but needs improvement

The resort itself is beautiful. The beach is out of this world…. White sand and blue water. The resort needs more variety in food and lacked a cafe… there was no where I. The day to find a nice latte or cold shake with some baked goods. It will be nice to have a place to relax and enjoy the cafe. The lighting in the rooms need to be brighter. The staff was outstanding and worked very hard to keep the place pristine. Overall a wonderful resort.

Grand Muthu Runaway Bay Club Caribbean: Amazing time!

We went July 19-26th 2022. We had the most amazing experience! Perhaps the best part ( aside from the stellar ocean views and access ) was undoubtedly the staff! Amazing services and always genuine and with smiles. Special shout outs to Troy who was part of landscaping/ maintenance… his positive attitude brought a smile to our faces every single day! Also to Odette from the bar by our little beach. I believe it was called Bar Booze Liner . She was absolutely phenomenal! Also William from the  [... read more]main bar was brilliant! So happy we found this gem ! And we WILL be back..sooner rather than later!
