Roots Bamboo Beach Resort

Stayed here in February of 25. This was my second trip to Negril. Rooms and grounds are very nice and well kept. AC worked great. The housekeepers were great, close to some of the best breakfast spots on 7 mile beach. They do have loud concerts a couple nights a week but it didn’t bother us. Will stay again! Thanks, Roots!

Great Customer service. Friendly and caring Staff. Beautiful Beachfront access. Clean environment. Beautifully decorated rooms, comfortable accommodations. Live Music. Real Island feel to this resort.

I stayed here for five days in August during low season and I loved it! There were more locals than tourist around so I had my resort’s beach area to myself mostly. I spent most days laying under a bamboo hut. Reggae concerts three nights a week and two nights next door. Lovely relaxing crowed just there to enjoy themselves. Drink prices at the bar are “tourist” price but great drinks. The red stripes beer for $3 was great! I’d reccomend you exchange for Jamaican dollars ahead of time before getting to Negril. The exchange rate at the hotel was terrible. It should have been 160 to 1 US dollars but they were giving more like 120 My only issue was the additional package of $150 for a round trip drive from the airport. The driver picked me up as planned but when we got to the hotel the front desk reception said it would $100 each due to a “glitch” at booking. I refused and it was negotiated down to $80 one way. I took the Knutsford Bus back for $15. You can book passage at the airport to Negril one in the morning and one late afternoon. DONT GET THE ROUNDTRIP ADD ON ITS A SCAM.

We was shown three rooms and we choose the smallest room as per our needs. The room and bathroom was clean, there was a fridge/freezer in the room as a tv. |Staff was great as well as the manager Opia who all went out of their way to make us feel welcome and answered any questions we had.|Breakfast in the morning was excellent, a variety to choose from.|Entertainment in the evening was great just next door so did not have to go far.||Would recommend and would stay again.

June 20 2025 this hotel was perfect room was great the bar and beach was perfect I have no complaints the staff was great i will be back. The live band stage shows was amazing they have it every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This will be where I will stay going forward everything I go to Jamaica 🇯🇲. Thanks rootsbamboo 🥰

I cant say enough about this place!!!! We stayed 18 days and we felt so safe and comfortable. The owners Opia and Jerry are the best, very accommodating friendly and professional. The staff were great friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful, filled with everything we needed and we used a lot of things cooking every day etc... They have a restaurant too and the food is Amazing with a large variety. My daughter has allergies so they prepared food with only the ingredients she could eat which was so amazing!!!! Alex, one of the chefs was there every morning to make me fresh coffee and what ever else I needed. All of the servers very polite and ready to get you what ever it is you need. House keeping is on it and very thorough. If you want a safe comfortable family run trip this place is the place to be. Ill be back as soon as I can. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Oh and if you like reggae music they have live entertainment too.

We booked the top view Seahorse suite over 8 nights in March for our anniversary. |there are not enough words to describe the absolute awe of the this place!! |The views are breathtaking no matter the time of day, or where you stand inside or on the balconies. |It can't be more private steps from the beach. |The kitchen is very nice and has a kettle, cutlery and dishes with a beautiful stove and fridge big enough to stock if you want to cook during your stay. Though i recommend the onsite restaurant. The Roots omelette is SO good. |The bed is gloriously huge and comfortable. The bathroom is amazing and, if you leave the door open you can look at the ocean while in the shower.| It is premier romance. |The room is steps from the water and a few more to the restaurant and stage. |Three nights a week there amazing musicians playing right outside the balcony-- though its a way better experience on the beach with a cold beer! |The beach is next level. |There is more space than other places we passed along the beach during our daily walks and the view of the sunsets couldn't be better. We never felt crowded or bothered by anyone. |The staff is so kind and helpful, we were not disappointed in the property, the service, or have any safety concerns. |If you need anything, just ask, even a drive to the store or bank machine. you'll be taken care of, or pointed in the right direction. |Even the vendors set up outside the restaurant are so kind and helpful. |We met a number of people who are repeat guests and they always had nothing but great experiences and love for their 'home away from home". |We didn't finish our trip before speaking with Opia and booking to get married at Roots Bamboo in 2026!!! |We had the best, most relaxing holiday of our lives and can't wait to begin our next chapter in this beautiful location.

I’ve stayed at Roots Bamboo 3 years in row and I love it! First of all I feel like I’m staying with GOOD family when I’m there. The owners really make you feel so welcome when you arrive. They’re so helpful and go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. I arrived the day before Hurricane Beryl and the owners left their homes in another Parish to ride out the storm with their guests. The staff members are fantastic and they remember you by name. Some have worked together for a long time so the camaraderie is genuine and fun. The rooms are clean and lack nothing. You’re less than 30 seconds from the beach no matter which room you stay in. There’s live music playing 3 times a week so everything you want is right at your finger tips. It’s better than staying at an all-inclusive because you get the real Jamaican experience. We stayed at RIU in 2022 but came running down to Roots just to hang out at the beach in the day and great music in the night time. I came back for 25 days in 2023 and the entire month of July in 2024! Roots Bamboo has my heart- not just because it’s the best piece of real estate on 7 Mile but also because the Management team and the staff really give you a great customer experience! They also have a bar and a restaurant with great food if you ever just to treat yourself to a day at the beach! Tell Ms. Denise ‘Sharon says Hi!’ I just love Her and once you check into her resort you’ll know why too!
