We spent a week during the holidays there. I think it is a fine resort. Here are the pros and cons.
Pros:
-The staff were very attentive, kind, and always willing to help.
- The resort was very clean.
-The shower had good water pressure and worked well.
-The food was not excellent but decent overall. The jerk chicken stand near the beach was a highlight, and the smoothie bar was good, though it didn’t have many options. I also liked the ice-cream machine in the buffet! The drinks were okay, but higher-quality liquors came at an extra cost.
Cons:
-The resort is quite far from Montego Bay Airport. If you’re traveling with a tour, keep in mind that the bus will stop at multiple resorts to drop off other passengers before reaching yours. The ride typically takes around t3 hours, but due to an issue, ours took 4! If that sounds too long, you might want to consider booking a private transfer—we did that on the way back, and it was much more convenient.
-Although the resort is large, it feels a bit old and outdated. Some parts need renovation. However, it is kept very clean.
-I appreciated the resort’s quiet atmosphere as an adults-only getaway, but at times it felt too lifeless. The entertainments were limited and not very engaging, and there were no special programs for Christmas.
-Despite being in a tropical country, the fruit selection was surprisingly limited—mostly just cantaloupe and pineapple, with the occasional addition of watermelon or apples. There were no lemons or limes anywhere in the resort! I once ordered a mojito, but they couldn’t make it because they had no mint. The restaurant options also lacked variety.
