This was my first trip to Jamaica; therefore, I have no comparisons with other hotels. My stay was also during the off-season, so I do not know what would have been different. The staff were friendly and willing to address any concerns. I'm not a pessimistic, nitpicking individual, and I did not go looking for deficiencies or for everything to be as accommodating as in the U.S. I went to Negri and Sandy Haven Resort to enjoy the experience, my friends, and have a relaxing vacation. That is exactly what I did! I hope to return.

I recently completed my third stay at Sandy Haven, and while I’ve had great experiences in the past, this visit was unfortunately disappointing. Previously, beach security—especially Sinclair—helped ensure a peaceful environment by minimizing harassment from vendors. This time, we were repeatedly approached while relaxing on the beach, and a simple “no thank you” was often not enough. It disrupted what should have been a relaxing experience. Additionally, the included continental breakfast with mimosas was only fully available on three of my six days. No champagne was available on the other days, and no alternatives were offered. While most staff were friendly, a few seemed disinterested or unhelpful when responding to basic questions. I understand it’s off-season, but the overall service felt below the usual standard I’ve come to expect. I appreciate the experiences I’ve had at Sandy Haven and hope this feedback helps improve future guest stays.

The hotel was beautiful. Room was beautiful. Bartenders were great, waitresses were great. My only issue I had was the young lady at the front desk. Her name was something... Ann I don't recall. But boy did she have a bad attitude. From check in to check out her attitude was terrible. She almost ruined an otherwise perfect stay.

The room is very spacious. From reading previous reviews, the hot tub has been broken for a long time, it was not working during our stay. the pool was dirty. The fridge in the room never was cold, which was another common thing I had read in the reviews that it commonly didn’t work. Breakfast at the sandy haven is mediocre. You are offered a continental breakfast, which is a small plate of fruit and toast. They also offer mimosas, but only had champagne one day of our stay. We didn’t spend much time at this resort. We had friends staying next door at coco la palm, we spent most of our time in their chairs and using their hot tub. The drinks at the bar of shandy haven are expensive. The sandy haven beach isn’t very big. If you just want a room to sleep in and find a different beach this place is perfect for just going to sleep. I suggest finding a friend at cocolapalm and hanging out on their beach.

I liked the quietness of the property. Rooms were large and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and polite. It is close to dining options within walking distance either from the beach or along Norman Manley Blvd. The only issue was the water availability, at times it took a while for the hot water to work especially later in the day and late one night there was no water at all. Otherwise everything else was very good and I would return to visit another time. Overall I recommend this property.
