The property is beautiful…great ocean view. Great food. Breakfast and dinner.

Aug 2024

The property was walking distance from the town so that was convenient The road was very narrow , filled with potholes , vehicles were always tooting their horns due the deep corner and the narrow road. On arrival the fridge was not working, no bottles of water was offered in the very hot temperatures or placed in the room. The towels are very old and discoloured. No hand towels were offered.Most day the shower was cold , or the water partially warm.Lots of screaming in the shower especially from the children. The furnitures are very old and rusty. Doors are very old and very difficult to lock especially the one to the pool area. Cockroach was noted in my room and this was reported. The room was sprayed but the next day I found it alive under my suitcase.The girls were bitten badly by mosquitoes. The breakfast was the same everyday unless you pay 10-15 US per person for a Jamaican breakfast. The lady chef was welcoming and tried her best to feed the family. Imagine every morning eating scrambled egg and fried sausages. Sometimes not enough cups to make your self a hot cup of tea so you will have to wait for waiters to wash a cup and sauce for you. Lovely area near the sea with the party boats docking nearby with loud music or tourist passing by and waving from the small boats. The staff was welcoming, and always willing to help. Perfect for short stay and the property could benefit from a renovation to make it more welcoming.

Overall this property has great potential, the exterior was decent & clean, the restaurant had great selection and is right by the ocean so calm and relaxing. The staff is friendly and service is great. However the rooms or particularly the room we stayed was in a deplorable state. The beds were hard, walls needed painting, bathroom was shabby and the vanity & mirrors cracked, old and looked dirty. The rooms are far from accommodating for the per night price. Management needs to look into updating the rooms they require lots of TLC, if the rooms are upgraded this property will be easily a 5 star experience

Excellent views of the ocean from the pool and restaurant. Inside needs renovation, it's more like a trip hazard, uneven stairs and walkway. Rooms are outdated.

This is a hidden paradise. The approach (neighborhood) and the parking area is not ideal, but inside... I would stay here again and again. The Jamaican breakfast is delicious. The drinks are exquisite. The accommodations are quiet, safe, and fun or romantic depending on your wants.

I have been coming ocean palms since 2019 and have always enjoyed my stay there, however on this occasion it was the worst experience ever and thats mainly due to the receptionist horrible behaviour ask her a question she doesn't reply she was huffing and puffing they gave me a dirty wet room the floor was full of straney hair all over the floor i asked to change she lied and said they were all gull looked threw the window of the room next door i was eventually allocated the room after alot of silence sigbing kiss teet the little short one at the desk with the glasses she needs alot of customer service training. Also had alot of bugs is the room leaking fridge and the ac was not working properly and this supposed to be a premium deluxe room absolutely awful and not worth the money

The staff was great and access to the beach was lovely and the beach was very private. This allow you to relax in comfort. This would be a four star or higher if they spend some more money on cleanliness. Overall, I nice pleasant hotel on a budget. I would stay there again

When I arrived I was greeted by every member of the staff that walked by or even help with check in. The rooms were ready, well organized and clean. The way they describe the room as a pool and beach view was exactly as mentioned. I received a nice refreshing welcome drink when I got settled in. Then I tour the grounds and the place is kids friendly with many views of excitement. The only thing I believe the hotel could change is the speed that the restaurant lounge area had. When you want to enjoy every moment every minute count you could tell that the restaurant staff needs to work on time management to get the food out to the guest. But the food was excellent!

We enjoyed our stay because the highlight of the property would be the restaurant area right next to the sea. small beach area but the private access at a beautiful location is awesome. When we stayed the water clarity was super great. Pool area was very comfortable and it seemed that the pool was also heated. Had a great massage at the in-house spa. We did not stay in the room much, but our room needed some repairs and updating. Door security was lacking. Bed was clean and comfortable. Balcony with pool and sea view was awesome and relaxing. The area around the hotel could possibly be intimidating to some due to the heavy foot and vehicle traffic of the locals market area. My wife and I are very comfortable living in Jamaica and enjoy the atmosphere though. Being alert and friendly is a must. Poor parking in front of hotel and since another guest had there vehicle stolen while we were there can be challenging for some. Nonetheless, my wife and I would stay here again due to the access to the sea and the affordable rate we had. Most of the staff was very friendly and helpful. food tasted great, but cooked to order does take time. However that was perfectly acceptable to us while we sat relaxing next to the sea.

My overall experience was ok. The kitchen and bar staff were nice and the food was good. The rooms need a refresher but I could see where they changed the tiles. The doors and sink needs changing and also the varnish on the front door needs to go. Apart from that, the hotel is close to the town and local amenities. There isn’t much of a beach, only a small part of the coast line but beaches are nearby. The internet was great in the rooms but I wasn’t restaurant and beach area but it was an ok experience.

I’d say to give them some time before booking. They are renovating so the stay will be below par. I stayed back in 2021 and it was great! This time the rooms are terrible, tv don’t work, ac don’t work properly and makes noises. The lady at the front desk was very nonchalant about the whole thing and pretty much told me to take it or leave it. The only thing working for them right now is the God given view.

The one issue I cannot overlook is the unfriendly staff. In the hospitality industry, friendly staff is an absolute must. Some of the front desk staff was friendly but not all of them. Housekeeping staff rarely said hello or smiled even when I greeted them with good morning or good afternoon. The hotel site says they offer airport shuttle. Despite requesting airport pick-up via messaging and calling them the day before, when I arrived at the airport, I had to call the hotel again and I waited over 2.5 hours for the taxi to arrive. You have to pay cash directly to the driver, something I was not prepared to do. I had to ask him to take me to a bank to get cash from the ATM. The hotel is in a good location to be able to walk around main street Ocho Rios and get to restaurants and the craft markets. However, I do not recommend walking back down the side street to the hotel after dark, unless it is a Friday or Saturday night when all the shops and bars along the street are open and there is a lot of activity. Advertising they offer airport shuttle is misleading. Guests are better off either taking the Knutsford Express bus to Drax Hall and taking a taxi from there. If you take a taxi from the airport to Ocho Rios, be prepared to pay approximately $130 USD cash. Despite the misleading airport shuttle offer and the location, if the staff was friendlier, I would consider staying there again to support local business. Friendly staff is a must.

Firstly the conditions was not worth the price, property needs major updating. Seems like the money isn’t invested back into the business. Simple fixtures such as shower head needs to replace as it’s clogged and sprays in every direction, bathroom door needs to change and toilet clogged. We had to ask for small towels as none are left in the room. Tissue seems to be on ration! We had some blue tore up bed sheets! Walls are PAPER THIN LOL can hear every word that’s spoken, if persons book with kids please let them stay on the bottom floor, the constant running up and down was a nuisance! Pros: The food Jamaican food was good (pay in JMD). The view was nice from the back of the property, the staff attitude was very pleasant, the resort is located in a good area nearby a high traffic area, walking distance.

The hotel was good, it is dated but it’s okay for the price if you are on a budget. The hotel is near everything like night clubs, mahogany beach etc.. but we would have rather had a resort that had a lot of amenities and excursions within the resort.
