The resort was very clean. Every staff member that I interacted with were all nice. The resort was just a little too quiet. It seemed dead to the world once the sun went down around 6 every evening we were there.

There was a lot of room so everyone could spread out. One could always find lounge chairs in shady areas. There were many good food choices and the a la carte restaurants were superb. The downside was the staff referring you to use the app for everything meaning you always needed to have your phone with you. It would have been helpful to have a paper map.

Nothing moves quickly in Jamaica
Beautiful property and room. The pool was awesome and well maintained. The 3 a la carte restaurants we went to all had delicious food and decent servers. However, the remainder of the hotel service really lacked. We asked for ice in our room twice and never got it (you can’t get it yourself). There was an instance of a cleaned room but they forgot to replace all of the towels then it took 4 hours to get more. And the most frustrating part was the attitude of a great majority of the bartenders. They seemed inconvenienced that we were asking for drinks as simple as a beer or rum and coke. One bartender yelled out that he hadn’t received any tips all night long. This is a grat and tips included resort! Aside from this, we had a lot of fun just relaxing at the pool and beach.

Shower had green deposits on it and was pretty much falling apart. Safe constantly locks it self was told we were getting a replacement it never showed up and the we were staying the door was bashed as if some tried to break in previously so we definitely didn't feel completely leaving our stuff out when we're not around . We Had items locked in the while we were trying to leave the resort for the day causing us to be late. The tv we were given was very small about the size or a large computer moniter as if that wasn't bad enough it only worked half the time. The room service and cleaning/restocking staff were amazing. Food options wasn't the best

There was a lot of cons over pros to this hotel. I would never book at this resort or recommend it to anyone. The staff was rude and the food was limited and never refilled even though the buffets were always open. The restaurants were closed half the time even after doing the reservation and was no prior notice. They had workers strike so staff was very limited to operate resort. Pools were closed early and also the time we went for towels the worker at the towel station told there’s no towel left so he can’t give us anymore this is totally unacceptable for a 5 star hotel or so called 5 star hotel as I have been to many 5 star hotel before even a 3 star hotel has better customer service than this hotel. We had issue with our room where water was leaking out side the shower we complained the front desk and they told us some one will be there shortly but no one showed up for about an hour we called again and they said the same thing and no one showed up. So we finally decided to go to front desk to talk in person. They told us there’s no one available to fix it so they will give us new room. We requested to have room near by but they gave us room way further and we paid for ocean view but we got the new room with highway view and we told them but there response was they don’t have any available. I highly doubt that as the front desk lady seemed to be careless of customer experience. It was raining and no one cleaned floor and way too slippery. This was worst vacation ever !

Buyer beware! Lots of false advertising with this one. I called ahead to verify what exactly the adults only (VIP) gave a customer. They claimed it included top shelf liquor, several restaurants and top nop service from the staff. They only gave u cheap well rum, draft beer, many restaurants that were closed or the staff just didnt open for hours late and after the initial welcoming, staff that was outright rude and nasty. When u mentioned these issues to upper management they just responded, well thats what we have here and then gave you a dirty look to leave them alone. Most other guests had complained about this treatment as well. The staff just will straight up laugh at you and ignore your issues. Dont bother spending your money here, go anywhere else.

When I first booked this property, I was looking forward to staying on the luxury side. I stayed on the Grand Bahia side 10 years ago and really enjoyed my stay. However, the luxury side did not live up to the luxury that was advertised. To begin, we were never gifted our complimentary champagne for celebrating our anniversary. The cable went out and when I attempted to call the front desk, there was no response. We also saw a roach in our room, which was highly disappointing because we are used to top tier cleanliness at a resort. Additionally, we felt like there should be more amenities in the room — common items like tissue and hand soap. Last, but not least, when we went to get our first meal at the buffet by the pool, some of the staff members weren’t very helpful with making sure that the food was edible and enjoyable for all dietary restrictions. Despite these inconveniences, the bed was extremely comfortable and almost all hotel staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We also enjoyed the fire show and the activities that were available. If you want to avoid children, the luxury side is a good consideration, but it shouldn’t be your only reason. You might enjoy your stay more on the Grand Bahia side.
