Dislikes-noisy from renovating,no relaxation Dislikes-owner and families present at hotel Dislikes-ready to take a shower and no water Dislikes-can't warm food up,no microwave, only in kitchen, stayed 16 nights, got a microwave 2 days just before leaving ,oh you have to ask for one Dislikes-cause we had a complaint about not having water,the owners all of them waiting to talk to us on the outside stating you can go,so your paid in full,but your telling us we can go,not talking refund, but speaking third party, if you want me to leave from somewhere where i paid you over a year ago in full,you better have my refund as I'm exiting your facility, that was a really big issue for me my time at this facility

The property was quiet nice, I particularly enjoyed the peace and quiet this boutique hotel offered. There were not many people around and that gave alot of intimacy to our trip, we enjoyed the beach and sitting on the pier on the evenings for dinner. Very relaxed atmosphere.

I like that the property was located on the beach. The choice of American vs local breakfast was good. There could have been more choices on the dinner menu, however the chefs did well with meals, and the food was delicious. The hotel staff was very friendly. I did not like that it was open access to the public and many locals roamed the property, which made it unsafe. Room furniture was very scarce, and I had to request seating. Toiletries were sparse and you had to wait up to 3 hours s for a beach or bath towel.

This my honest and heartfelt review, I did some research online before I book this little paradise in Jamaica, if I had base my decision on the negative reviews I wouldn't have come here but let me tell you, you have to go here to experience it for yourself. This little hotel is family run and they are still improving the property , the staff are amazingggg the food is delicious the room have all the amenities for a comfortable stay, room is clean you get jamaican coffee, tea and bottles of water in your room. The view of the ocean from the room during sunrise and sunset is to die for, the way to get here is through a local community village of fishermen that looks out for the area, it might seems sketchy but it's safe and the owners never had issues all the years they've been here. This hotel have a river beside the property so you have both the beach and the river, when I say I didn't want to leave this property because if the tranquility and the beauty of this place I almost cried thinking about going back home to my first world life. To sum it up go and experience it for yourself everyone is looking for different things and for us this was the perfect vacation. Thanks to the team at sand and tan beach hotel I will spread positive word about this piece of paradise

This is not a 4 star hotel. The rooms are not as clean as they appear on the website and the air conditioning is questionable. The staff was rude and unaccommodating and the restaurant did not have half the items listed on the menu. It was so bad we had to check out almost immediately and go somewhere else.
