Riu Palace Jamaica: Excellent resort

Everything was perfect including staff,food beach and cleanliness. Absolutely no complaints . The room was beautiful and staff were very friendly . I would highly recommend this resort and would return again for sure.

Secrets St James: Secrets... 2nd to none

Amazing resort!! Not overly crowded, food was outstanding at all restaurants, everything was easily accessible with only a short walk to the beach. Infinity Pools were outstanding with a wonderful view of the ocean!! Highly recommend you check it out!!

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Beautiful Resort, Wonderful Staff!

Just returned from a blissful week at this resort in Jamaica. My sister and I had a fantastic time -- food was amazing, service was outstanding and the total vibe of the resort was just super chill and friendly. A lot of options for beaches and we never had a problem finding chairs. We would highly recommend the Indian a la carte restaurant -- suuuper delicious. We did not get to try the teppanyaki restaurant; even though they say you can book 1 day in advance, we tried to book on Wednesday for  [... read more]a Thursday reservation and their first opening was on Sunday. Also it was hard to find information about the shows and the buffet hours in the hotel room booklets were different than when they were actually open (ie. we never saw the Blue Lagoon open but it was supposed to serve lunch daily according to the hours). Would be great to add in a flyer or something about the activities / shows that goes into the pamphlet with the room keys. All in all though, this place was fantastic and I can't wait to return!

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Great times!

Overall I really enjoyed the resort, staff was friendly, resort/ room was clean. Buffet was good, lots of options. Also liked all the restaurant options for dinner. Lots of action around the main pool and options to go to adult pool or beach for more quiet time. Resort is huge so lots of walking which might not be easy for some. Also if you are a beach person for long walks that is something you won't get. There was a big gym too. great night entertainment as well. Overall was impressed with  [... read more]this resort ideal for families, couples and wedding parties!

Riu Ocho Rios: Super fantastic resort

The overall hotel, facilities, staff, food,location was excellent. I'm really looking forward to a revisit in the near future. I would most definitely recommend it to family and friends. Being there was exactly what I needed

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Five star+ resort

Grand Bahia Principe is one of a kind. It is the staff, the customer service who makes a difference in the hotel. From the room, the activities, the spectacle/events are well organized and funny, with high intensity music that makes your body move. I choose Grand Bahai whenever we go on all inclusive vacations, this is our third one so far and couldn't say anything negative about it. We are so pleased and so grateful for our vacations. Thank you. Sakirah and Cassam Jaunbocus

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Vacation

The hotel was well kept, landscaping was beautiful most of the staffs were friendly and helpful. Some of the staffs and security need to stop making advances at females without a partner. We were there for a gateway with family and friend and a well deserved break from work I don’t need to be harassed. I felt violated and unsafe when one of the security asked me for my room number to visit.

Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton: Great Resort!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton! The grounds are beautiful, the employees are so friendly, and the food and drinks were top notch! You have 3 beautiful beaches to choose from and the largest pool in all of Jamaica! The restaurants are all good.. we honestly didn’t have a bad meal all week. The buffet was also very good - you absolutely can’t go hungry! The live entertainment upstairs every night was wonderful.. esp 80’s night! We danced all night long! [... read more] I can’t wait to come back to this piece of paradise!

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Honeymoon Bliss

We really enjoyed our stay at this resort for our honeymoon. From the moment we arrived we knew we made the right choice! The accommodations, service, food, staff and amenities were excellent. We will be back!

Excellence Oyster Bay: Setting a high bar

From jump, we knew we were in for a singular experience. The resort is on a secluded peninsula, with beautiful views of both land and sea. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-appointed. The food was varied and delicious, with little overlap between restaurant menus. We had minor problems with some construction noise and restocking of our mini bar, but the staff was, as always, friendly and responsive. Highly recommended.

Riu Palace Tropical Bay: We'll be going again...it's fabulous!

We've been to RIU Tropical Bay in Negril a number of times and we love it! They did a great job with the renos. The rooms are clean and spacious. Balconies offer a great view as they are surrounded by glass so when you're sitting down, your view is not obstructed. The beach is perfect...nice and sandy. Guests are not packed in like sardines. There are plenty of lawn chairs and ample room. The water is typically like a bath. At about 5ish, the star fish make an appearance. It's just beautiful. [... read more] Negril Bay (formerly called Bloody Bay) is truly a piece of heaven. Food at the RIU is very good. Whether you choose an A la Carte restaurant or go to the buffet, you won't be disappointed. Best of all, you don't have to waste your time making reservations. It's first come, first served. If it's busy, sit down, have a drink...relax...your wait time will not be too long. And...you have to try the Jerk Hut...best food ever. Wish my chicken could be this good! Staff at the RIU work hard and are so pleasant. Even though it's an all inclusive, we like to tip well. We also come with lots of gifts for the cleaning staff. It's much appreciated. There was a wedding one evening and the whole set up looked so magical. Looked like a great time was had by all. To get to this resort, we always use personal transport (Island Tranfers). The bus tends to leave late and always stops midway. After a long time travelling, we just want to get to the hotel. Can't wait to go back. Always hate to see that trip end...that's my only negative. Try it out. You won't be disappointed.

Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach: Good but not great

We recently (Nov2019) stayed at this hotel . It’s was our first family vacation with our little one who is 2. First impressions were that lobby was very nice and elegant. Staff quickly checked us in but did however try to get us to come to the “welcome breakfast” aka time share meeting. I knew this wasn’t going to be possible with 2 year old boy especially in the morning. It was my husbands birthday and told 2 staff members hoping there would some sort of surprise for him. I was totall [... read more]y disappointed in the lack of attention for this even though they did say we would do something. Sometimes these little things go a long way. Our room didn’t have the view I anticipated. The balcony had a high concrete wall so couldn’t see much. I even asked the front desk if any other room were available. Supposedly they were too full. Since we had our little doing a restaurant didn’t seem like the right fit for us so we stuck to the buffet, which was great. Everyday there was lots of options however I could tell food was repurposed. In addition, there was lots of construction which took away from the beautiful grounds . I avoided taking pictures of that side. The beach was beautiful and clean . Excellent view! I loved how the wifi connection was throughout the entire property. For this being our first family trip I think it was a good starting point. Definitely wished my husbands birthday was celebrated as I requested multiple times.

Royalton Hideaway Blue Waters: Nice resort

This is a very well kept resort where everything is clean from the rooms to the beach and in between. Great service and very friendly staff pretty much in every area. Well trained to provide a "my pleasure " response to every thanks. Have no real complaints of any sort other than they have to find a better system for their coffee service in the buffet restaurant . Coffee only comes after many requests and usually only after the breakfast meal is either half done or done! They should have a self  [... read more]serve coffee set up like most other resorts.Is this typical to Jamaica compared to other destinations?

Bahia Principe Explore Jamaica: Fun in the sun

Great value affordable vacation in Jamaica without compromise. The pool bar centre activities were a blast. Excellent quite area options in multiple pools plus extensive beach areas to explore. Food was beyond expectations with 4 a la cartes each one offering tasty full menus.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Terrible Resort

Upon arrival they were very friendly and the check in process was fast. The rooms were very clean and that is the only nice thing I have to say. There was often no water and electricity at the beach bar. They had ice, bottled water, juices and pop but refused to serve drinks. Don't go expecting to have service at the beach because you won't ! Staff was always trying to sell legal and illegal substances. We did not feel safe at the beach and the staff was very rude! This is not a 5 star resort

Riu Palace Tropical Bay: What a great resort for our wedding and honeymoon

This resort was highly recommended from a friend and it truly did not disappoint. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, the food was excellent with a great variety of choices, the room was spotless every day and everything around the resort was neat and tidy. Without exception we will be returning to Riu Palace Tropical Bay.

Couples Negril: Incredible Trip!

This resort has some of the most beautiful grounds - landscaping is the first noticeable thing, with mature, lush foliage. It may have been around for some time, but it feels new and very well maintained. Room is the most modern and comfortable I've seen at an all-inclusive. Staff is so friendly - just don't be in a rush for anything as everything is island time ;) Perfectly located on the most beautiful stretch of beach in Jamaica, close enough to West End to go and explore some off-propert [... read more]y locations as well. Would definitely recommend!

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay: Beautiful Property

Choosing Jamaica was easy; however we had never been so a resort was a harder choice but we are so thankful we chose Luxury Bahia Principe Runaway Bay. We cannot say enough about how amazing our experience here was - everything from the check-in to the welcome we received upon entering our room was flawless. Food was amazing, pool was perfect, staff were phenomenal & the beach was beautifult! We cannot wait to book our next trip to this property!

Excellence Oyster Bay: Loved it all!

We really enjoyed our stay at Excellence Oyster Bay! The resort was beautiful, the staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. We fell in love with the jerk sauce. Order a pizza at Oregano with a side of jerk sauce and thank me later. We’re really glad we did a beach house, we loved our room and it gave us access to the entire resort, including the villa area. I can see how not being a part of the Excellence club might make the resort feel a bit small but for us it was the p [... read more]erfect size. We also had a great beach right out front of our patio. We had a lot of fun at Spice for the teppanyaki. The wine for purchase in the restaurants was better than any other I’ve seen at an all inclusive. We also visited the spa quite a few times which we really enjoyed. This was definitely the vacation we were looking for. Something relaxed where we felt pampered and could unwind.

Couples Swept Away: Great Stay at Swept Away

Overall this was a great hotel. The areas for improvement would be their service is hit or miss, but was especially bad in the Palms Restaurant and the Fish Taco lunch spot. Also the nightly entertainment (except the steel drum band) was pretty bad each night. With that said, if you are looking for a resort with great food, an amazing beach and quiet atmosphere for R&R then this is a great option. We were looking for a getaway to get recharged and this was the perfect spot to do so. Don't ex [... read more]pect the fancy lobby with marble - but you can't beat the beach and quiet this resort provides.
