We had such a great trip. We went as a family with our adult children and we still had such a great time even though we had no young children of our own. There was stuff to do when we wanted to or we could just relax too. The entertainment staff may be all of our favorite part of the vacation. They knew us by name and helped make the trip as great as it was!

My family had a great time. Venecia was amazing. She always make sure the room was in great condition and checked on us constantly. Jerome at Venetian was great. He was attentive and was great. Each of the times we went there for dinner. The resort was clean and a number of activities for the kids to do. The resort was outdated in some places, but energy was great.
The only concern we had was the staff at Neptune restaurant. They were not attentive and did not seem to want to be there.

Have been to Sandals resorts before but this was my first experience at a Beaches. This was a family vacation (kids 9, 11, 13) and this was a wonderful resort- very kid friendly, lots of activities and great food. The staff are very accommodating and the events and shows are a lot of fun. Only a handful of restaurants but each was very good. I have noted that some other reviews indicate that the resort could use some renovation and upkeep and while this is true, it is mostly cosmetic and nothing that interferes with the the enjoyment of the resort. Water activities (snorkeling, kayaks, catamarans, boat rides) were all included and made for a really nice experience for the kids. This a 2+ hour drive from the Montego Bay airport which is not ideal, but I understand that the Ian Fleming airport is opening to international flights so future rides would be only 10 minutes to the resort. The only issue I had was with the reservation policy for the restaurants. Reservations were available but only for people I. The concierge rooms. This made it a bit difficult to organize dinner time and not have to wait for tables. It was only an issue once or twice but I am not sure why anyone couldn’t reserve a dinner time.
Overall we all had a wonderful time and enjoyed the resort tremendously.

We had a good time overall. The resort can definitely use some renovation. The elevator was out of service the entire 7 days I was there, so to get to the beach, I had to carry my two toddlers down the stairs along with all my beach items. The staff is somewhat friendly. The food was okay, I have had better. The worst restaurant was the Venetian. All of the staff was rude, our food took over an hour. What a terrible experience. I have traveled to several places, and Jamaica is probably the only place I have ever been mistreated as a tourist. Everyone there has an attitude problem. There were probably two employees who were kind, and they were Ripton and Zeddekian. The employees at the bar were freely asking for a tip, and when we gave them a tip, they said it was not enough and asked for more. I will not be returning to Jamaica.

Be prepared for 2 hours from airport. It was a wonderful stay, but if you want luxury try somewhere else. They were making improvements and updating while we were there but it is an older resort. Landscaping was beautiful. This is a kid friendly resort and they are everywhere, which is fine ad long as you know it. For couples, I would go elsewhere. They did a great job with my daughter’s beach vow renewal and reception! My grandsons loved the kids camp & water park. Their extra $ character tuck in got messed up, but they made up for it the next night by sending every character! The nightly entertainment was very good. With the water sports being included we felt we could do them all. I had an individual catamaran lesson that lasted until the guide & I felt comfortable I would be safe. Snorkeling, banana, & glass bottom boats are a must. Booking excursions, with pick up, at the resort was nice for having questions answered. Local vendors were on site, but not pushy.
As much as I enjoyed our stay, if I go back to Jamaica, I will find something closer to the airport.
