"Was a great resort for my first time out the country. Many activities to do, a show every night, lots of partying. They def make sure if you’re around, you’re partying. GREAT food selection. Room was clean. Even outdoor bathrooms by the pool cleaned on a regular, which I appreciate because pool bathrooms can be very gross. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Overall a good family friendly resort. "

"I had the absolute pleasure of staying at this beautiful boutique hotel in Jamaica, and I can confidently say it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcomed every single person I interacted with was warm, friendly, and genuinely helpful. Their hospitality truly made the experience feel like a home away from home.
The food was another highlight of my stay every meal was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love. Knowing that the hotel partners with local farmers to source fresh, sustainable produce only made each bite more meaningful. It’s a wonderful feeling to support a place that supports its community in such a thoughtful way.
As a Black/Jamaican owned hotel, this place also carries a deep sense of pride and authenticity that you can feel in everything from the decor to the service. I’m so glad I chose to stay here and will absolutely be returning on my next visit to Jamaica. Highly recommend!"
"The views from the Lodge's different balconies were amazing! There was private access to the ocean which was a good place to swim in
However, the last two steps down into the water were very mossy. I want to encourage them to clean those steps though using concrete scrapers. I really liked the property though, it was beautiful and serene."
"This property was convenient very clean and accommodating. The security and staff were very helpful and friendly made our stay comfortable. I eould stay here again and would definitely recommend. "

Sandals Dunns River - Couples Only - All-inclusive
5/5 Excellent
"10/10 Experience!
Just left the Sandals Dunn River resort and I have to say—everything was top tier! The service was truly 10/10 from beginning to end. The staff made the experience unforgettable. Special shoutout to Tiana, Rebecca Jane, the amazing bartender Antionette, Donovan, Juwan, Bernadine, and the restaurant waiter-Tawana. I can’t remember everyone’s name, but these individuals stood out with their kindness, professionalism, and energy. They made us feel welcome, cared for, and truly on vacation.
I’ll definitely be back—and recommending this resort to friends and family. Thank you all for making our stay so special!"
