“Location 5, staff 4, tired resort 3.”

Sep 14, 2026Camper56146574357

We are just babk from a week here and have very mixed feelings. I think the mixed reviews speak for themselves. Depending on what time of day you arrive and what room you get allocated you could have very different experiences here. Location about 90 minutes from Montego Bay. The beach is absolutely stunning. One of the most beautiful I have seen. Arrival, we were unlucky to be a late night arrival and our welcome was wholly uninspiring. Handed an iPad (without a word) told to fill in details and our departure flight details. With sketchy wifi this wasn't easy! One poor lady showing each couple to their room and one porter loading up the bags. We were left sitting there for 15 minutes whilst the first couple went off. At nearly midnight we just wanted to get to bed. The dj was thumping out music to an empty bar until 1145 so first impressions were dreadful. You know tou have this flight coming in every week. Make sure later arrivals are not poor Relations to those who arrive earlier to more staff, an actual welcome and a smile! Room. We took our own bags as didn't fancy waiting for the porter to have to deliver all over the resort.. we were in sundowner block which was a complimentary upgrade. We were super excited until we were faced with a very dated lift that reminded me of a 1970s tower block. The room was spacious and at first glance looked ok but very very dated decor. After this it got worse. Lets look at the view.. balcony door was stuck, other one did work but very difficult to manoeuvre. The outer shutters were wedged to the door by the furniture as they were falling off. Toilet door only shut if you slammed it and why oh why would any designer ever put slatted doors on the toilet in an open plan space. Has anyone ever wanted to hear their travel companion on the toilet? What in the world possessed them. There are major design flaws with shutters all around the resort. The room we wete allocated on departure to shower was much more modern but the shutters did not lever and as such being on a walkway anyone who was in that room would either need to be in plain view of everyone or shut out natural light. To give the staff the credit they are due, we reported all the maintenance issues and customer relations along with maintenance did a great job in repairing all that they could. Lets be clear though, Sandals are letting things slip. This was a butler category room, the view was stunning but anyone paying full price for a dated room that has been repaired on the cheap would be disappointed. The view onto the beach was indeed incredible and we loved it. Food - ok, average, it'll do. Only a couple of stand out meals. The chimichurri steak in Brava was to die for, which helped as everything else was too spicy (never before had a chicken croquette blow my head off!) Sundowner steak and lobster tails were great and our lovely server Sophia wax great. Barefoot is the most stunning place to have breakfast. We dined every morning and watched pelicans catching fish, a ray came swimming by one day, egrets keeping an eye and a local crab visiting. Beautiful. Food ok, never consistent. All the servers there were great. Resort - buffet is depressing. Fans do not keep this cool so you will be damn hot whilst eating unless directly under a fan. This is severely understaffed in the evening. Let me be clear; all the staff work incredibly hard this is no criticism of them, it is of Sandals and management. Sometimes youd get a glass of wine almost immediately whilst perusing the menu, sometimes your server was collecting trays, clearing tables, serving too many tables and 20 minutes have gone all whilst sitting in an uncomfortable heat. Luxury treatment? No. The meals were poor in the evening. A starter of octopus was tiny and a lump of dry bread on the side rather than toasted local bread as promised! Pasta was watery and in the main a bit tasteless. The resort is tired. There are some more modern rooms and if you get them then youre lucky. The resort needs money spending on it. Main pool is fun but this is where the score went from 5 to 4 ok the staff. No menus and when you ask what do you have they just show you spirits. How about telling me the array of cocktails I can see people carrying?? How about a smile? How avoid making the swim up more inviting other than when the quiz or bingo are happening. Its like an after thought and inconvenience to serve the pool. Swim up bars are a lovely Luxury and should feel that way. Not kust looking at the backs of the spirit bottles and the dishwashers! I asked to surprise me with a vodka cocktail as there were no menus. Kissed teeth and half a glass of vodka some other spirit and yellow juice was slammed in front of me. It was awful. Didn't ask for anything else at that bar afterwards. Piano bar was lovely. Charlton is a gentleman and a great asset to the resort and sandals. The mobile DJ plays too loudly so we entered into bars after he moved away from them. If a place is empty it doesn't need to be so loud. Sandals you are resting on your laurels. Appreciate the difficult with the recent hurricane and funds being diverted to other resorts but you pay a premium for Sandals and therefore expect a premium offering. This isnt it.. We met people raving about South Coast (the resort we should have been at) but still they said, oh one whirlpool hasnt worked for years and a lift hasnt worked for several years. Again, how can a brand like Sandals not repair things year on year. Hopefully Sandals will make sure that resort is properly finished now! People mentioned antigua was getting tired. We went for our honeymoon and were planning on visiting next year. I have lost faith in the Sandals brand and am looking at alternatives. Staff - 99.9% friendly, say hello, smile, offer to help and an absolute credit to Sandals. They all work incredibly hard and we thank you for being so great. We had shemoy and Christopher as butlers and they were both fantastic. Christopher always preempted needs and went over and above. I will cherish the memories of the beach,the wildlife, the smiling happy staff for a very long time. The resort not so much.

“Wonderful Experience at Sandals Negril”

Sep 12, 2026sonyaj952

Everything and nearly all staff were very cordial and welcoming. Wonderful stay and room (Bamboo Skypool Butler Suite. Our butler’s were Shemoh and Christopher who made our stay over the top amazing. Beautiful grounds, clean room with prompt housekeeping, room service and literally anything we wanted. Special shout out to recognize exceptional service from Charlton ( bartender at piano bar with 36 years of experience who will make any drink and remembered everyone’s name and drink without even asking after the 1st day! Also Christopher was above and beyond - truly the best butler of all our stays at various Sandals! Rebooking with Romaine(spelling may be off). He made rebooking so easy and painless, working to get us the room and price we wanted for next year! So many more that I can’t mention all the great staff! Well done!!
