The hotel

Nestled in 10-acres of delightful tropical, lush gardens, the Sunset at the Palms is a sure-fire winner for adults looking for a peaceful and pampering retreat. Offering a personalised concierge service, the dedicated team are happy to assist as soon as you arrive, ensuring your stay in Negril is everything you want it to be. From arranging transportation and booking excursions to making dining reservations and organising special occasions, nothing is too much trouble. Renowned for its unique and intimate accommodations, stay in exquisite wooden bungalows that sit atop sturdy stilts, so you feel like you’re in a tree house, with polished wood floors, sleek showers with body jets and airy balconies furnished with a relaxing day bed. There are three different dining choices, and we particularly love the spicy Jamaican ‘Jerk’ chicken that’s served at the Beach Bar and Grill during lunch — don’t miss it! The pool is perfect for lounging in the sun, or it’s a short escorted walk over the road to the celebrated Bloody Bay, a spectacular stretch of white sand beach fringed with picture-perfect palm trees.

My husband and I have just returned from another wonderful week at Sunset at the Palms. Everything was perfect. From our check in with Bianka to our departure with Krystal. The staff at this hotel go above and beyond to make your stay a memorable one. It was our second time vacationing here, and there was even a dinner to welcome the "Return Guests". I thought the food was very good. I liked that there was always a Jamaican option, which allowed you to sample foods and fruits of the island. Cornelius, Shon, Christina, Kashet, Tamika, to name some of the people in dining were wonderful, Damian at the beach. I know I have forgotten some of the names, but the staff here is the absolute best. Whoever does the hiring and training of the staff have done a fantastic job. Congratulations. My husband and I had the couples massage with Brenda and Sherica. We opted for the "deep tissue" massage and it was wonderful. Paul at the Piano bar is very talented, and we enjoyed listening to him play as well as listening to his funny stories and singing along. Some nights there was a Reggae band and steel pans. This resort is not for vacationers who want a more party atmosphere. The crowd tends to be older and thus a quieter vibe to the resort. The motto here is "you come as a guest; you leave as a friend; you return as family". Sunset at the Palms lives up to this motto. We will be back. Read less

This was my second stay at this resort and it was even better than the first! The new executive chef has really upped the dining experience and the staff continues to be outstanding. Spa services are top notch!

This isn't your party hub. This is the place you go to get away from the buzz. (Even though you might find a little action on the beach with good music) If you're looking for an easy going get away, this is it.

The food, staff, ambience, and water excursions were top class as described in my guest experience! The dining was diverse, and included authentic Jamaican cuisine! We are already planning to return!

I was surprised by the very lush jungle like feel of this property in the middle of Negril. The gardeners deserve an award. The stunning wood furniture and dining room built of wood made me feel like I was in a jungle lodge. Although I arrived in the middle of a downpour, I took the opportunity to take a nap on the bed on the porch of the room.… Read more
I was surprised by the very lush jungle like feel of this property in the middle of Negril. The gardeners deserve an award. The stunning wood furniture and dining room built of wood made me feel like I was in a jungle lodge. Although I arrived in the middle of a downpour, I took the opportunity to take a nap on the bed on the porch of the room. The rooms were equipped with all the amenities needed for a nice stay. The food was authentically Jamaican (though a little light on the pepper, but I understand why), and the seasonal fresh fruit was enjoyed. The staff were awesome: friendly, professional, funny and efficient. As a Jamaican I also enjoyed the band that played through dinner as they played traditional and popular Jamaican classics.
