We enjoyed our stay here over Christmas. It’s nothing fancy and for the price I would stay again. The rooms were clean. The employees were all very friendly. It’s a chill laid back vibe and that’s what we like. Our son enjoyed the pool 24/7 and we snorkeled in the ocean by the little beach area. The restaurant was only open a few days we were there and it was good. Amazing wings. We enjoyed the fact that we saved money on the resort and were able to tip and give back to the people of Jamaica. If you have high expectations for budget friendly resorts, I wouldn’t stay here. We didn’t have hot water, but we didn’t say anything either, we dealt with it. We will come back for sure and enjoyed our stay.

Breakfast was salty and the portion size could feed a toddler and they still would want more food. So just imagine it for an adult. Bar and restaurant was completely closed all afternoon and night. Overall everything else was ok.

My experience was terrible, nothing I was charged for was available except the breakfast (when requested). No staff, no housekeepng, restaurant and bar noot available, deck unusable, no hot water, no fridge, no accessories, no kettle or coffee maker, flooded driveway and muddy entrance .... I could go on. I checked out after two days (of the five) and went down the road to Hibiscus Lodge. I'd give a lower rating if there was one. I'm submitting a dispute.

Disliked: Amenities
No one was there to register me into the Resort when I arrived. I was left stranded in an area which appeared crime- ridden and quite threatening. I had to hire a stranger ( major risk) to find other accommodations. I did not stay a night in the resort and really think I should be refunded.

Not a pleasant experience

I stayed at this hotel for three nights and never was it cleaned once, didn't care so much since i made my own bed . Asked for new towels never received and there was a dead roach in front of my door. Breakfast was simple always eggs with toast and something new as a side. Didn't have any breakfast options. Only five parking spots in front of hotel and hard to find since the strret name is different that posted.
