A wonderful place to swim
Fabulous stay at Samsara. I always love swimming in the Ocean at this historic hotel across from the Blue Cave Castle which us sadly closed. Terrific balciny views of the ocean. Dreamy

Staff was super friendly. However, limited towels. We definitely didnt get towels everyday. Shower water was cold the entire stay and the water in the shower took a long time to drain so it would rise as you took your shower.

I like the authenticity of it. It is quiet the staff is very nice and friendly. However the food options are very limited. No fridge or no mini bar in the room. This is a small resort you cannot compare to the amenities of a big resort.very relaxing

This is my third stay at this property and I was pleasantly surprised. We went all inclusive which we had done in the past but this time we were much happier with the quality of the food. It's quiet and beautiful. The rooms are basic but clean and functional. The resort is somewhat dated but pretty well cared for. It's old school Jamaica unlike the new large AI resorts which I'm not fond of. If you enjoy a smaller property with an excellent view and decent food (I gained 6 pounds in 2 weeks), give this place a try.

We originally booked a garden bungalow, but were placed in the older side of the oceanfront rooms instead. We ended up liking it better, so we kept it. The rooms were older, but comfortable and clean. Very close to the ocean, pool, and food. We LOVED swimming in the ocean and jumping off the cliffs. The water was amazing. Warm and clear. For us this was much nicer than the small beachfront on the sister resort, Legends. Along with swimming a lot, we also walked to restaurants along the road, and even walked all the way into Negril. Rick’s Cafe and Xtabi were also two nearby locations that we walked to and swam. It was easy to run/jog along the road early in the mornings before the traffic picked up. We did not purchase all inclusive. Instead we ate the breakfast buffet and a late lunch. That was enough food for us each day, as the portions were large. The wifi worked great. We were able to work remotely when our jobs required it. Throughout our stay, we enjoyed talking with the staff. They were quick to laugh with us, and provided great service. We rented a car to drive from Montego Bay to Samsara. But in the end we wished we had just taken the shuttle. We had to do the trip after sundown. Driving at night was very terrifying for us. Narrow roads. Potholes. Stray dogs. And driving on the wrong side of the road (for us Canadians). Driving during the day proved to be much more enjoyable, but in hindsight we didn’t need the car rental. It would have been easy to access tax

Little too far from the airport and with traffic was about 3 hours each way. However a place itself was very chilled, not busy. I stayed 3/27-4/3 with my teenage child and we loved snorkeling, so I do recommend to bring snorkeling sets with you. Sunset is priceless. Our room was big facing cliffs/ pool. We did all inclusive and honestly didn’t care for food at all, there is also no snacks in between meals. And I am not asking for chips but fresh fruit would do it.Took many great pictures. If you can’t entertain yourself and need crowds/many things today could be a boring place for you.

The food was horrible, it was not authentic Jamaican cuisine, the options was very limited and the restaurant cross the street was worst. And to my surprise I assumed I did all inclusive online but thankful I didn’t cause the food wasn’t worth it. Only thing this resort off is good drinks. And at least the staff was nice

Staying at this property, felt like a quaint resort with relaxation, but have the ability to be around other attractions if you wanted some more nightlife experiences. We were able to have our all inclusive Benefits at their sister resort right on seven Mile Beach. Also, they are 10 to 15 minutes away from the infamous ricks café and Margaritaville.
