This was my second stay at Sea Shell Palms. My first experience in May was very positive, so when I returned to Jamaica, I knew I wanted to stay here again. It is near Ocho Rios. Tower Isle is quiet and Sea Shell Palms offers great value for the cost. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Guests select what they would like for breakfast the day before and it is delivered to your door in the morning- delicious and filling. Everyone at Sea Shell Palms is friendly and the balcony with chairs is a nice place to sit and relax, read, and talk with staff and other guests. In front of the hotel is a plaza with everything I needed- grocery stores, restaurant, ice cream shop, pharmacy, post office, and church. When I was at Sea Shell Palms in May, they were working on putting in a swimming pool. When I returned in November, the pool was ready and I enjoyed swimming laps. So my stay was even better this time.

1st let me say that the people that worked the property was nice and one of them even saved my life (jade), 2nd was the fact that there is nothing to eat in the area if the one restaurant closes, 3rd if venture to far away from the property and the locals realize that you're not from there, you may not make it back to your room, 4th the water is turned off at about 6pm and that's that, 5th if your toilet and shower work at the same time than you have a winning room, over all I'm all for supporting local businesses wherever i might visit but i like to eat and i would like not to be robbed by the pool, although they do have security and they are visible on the property but if you leave to go to the store you're basically on your own. Dont make tge mistake i made, go to a resort.

My dislike was my room was not clean for 4 days and the kettle taken from my room and when I speak the young lady told me she cannot control the behavior of the staff neither can i control my husband or children. That comment was very personal all because I have a complain about the service. I had to check out 1 day early because I felt violated so i need my refund back . Please confirm my complaint and send my refund back to my card. Thank you

I liked & enjoyed my 1bdrm suite. It was beautiful & very comfy. The TV in the bdrm wasn’t working for the 1st 2 days. But they came & fixed the problem. The pool was a beautiful nice size. 3ft-6ft. But the surrounding of the pool was gravel, dirt & rocks…
