Our first time to Sandals Negril and it did not disappoint. About 1 1/2 hour transfer from Montego Bay Airport. Quick and easy check in. Stayed in Paradise Beachfront Walkout room which was ideally located and quite central to everything. Very quiet (other than the usual sounds from Tree Frogs at night). Rooms cleaned and the fridge re-stocked daily. A smaller number of restaurants than some of the Sandals resorts but never had a problem getting reservations for any of them. The 'Sundowner' was my favourite (Phillip was very helpful and professional), and my husband's favourite was 'Brava'. We tried all of them and couldn't fault any. The service and food was very good throughout. Sileta and Terry Ann in the 'Bayside' welcomed us with huge smiles each morning at breakfast and again at lunchtime. Willis at the 'Piano Bar' was entertaining and remembered how we liked our drinks. There was regular beach service for drink top ups, even though the bars are not far to walk to. We tried the drink of the day everyday, and a special shout out to 'Janel' who hasn't worked there very long, but came by and chatted to us each day with drinks ready. Keron and Vandam took plenty of photos of us around the resort. We didn't book a photo shoot, but there were plenty of photos to pick from that they had taken throughout our stay. Great to have a laugh and conversation with, and very good at their jobs. Entertainment was good and didn't go on too late into the night. Finally, the loyalty and travel team are very helpful and professional. Shadae, Anna-Kay and Chavelle, we can't thank you enough for all your help in getting our 'free week' certificate confirmed! In all, we would recommend this resort to anyone wanting a relaxing time to do as much or as little as you wish. Small, colonial with the calmest sea we have ever come across! Sandals Negril has the most amazing employees throughout the resort. Everyone wore a smile and took the time to wish you a good day. They are all a credit to the 'Sandals' brand. We will return in the future. Read less

This is our second trip to Sandals (new) Grill. We had a wonderful time. The room was exceptional. Great view. We’ve already made plans to return in a couple years. There’s a few employees we would like to commend for always being helpful and friendly: Terry Ann and Judith in the Bayside restaurant, and Oneil who was one of the photographers!!

We have returned from our 46th trip to Sandals Negril. We are Ambassadors and upon arrival we were welcomed as if it was our first time at a Sandals. We got out of the car and there was no one in the lobby. A staff member finally walked over and told us to sit down and someone would be with us shortly. After 5 minutes one of the girls went to get the General Manager. She came out of her office to see us. She handed us the ipad to sign in. I stood there doing the checkin while she was talking. As Ambassadors we are supposed to have in room check in. Upon arrival to the room and for the first time there was no welcome home sign . We had to call a few times due to not being re-stocked with wine. We had no hot water one night…cold showers suck!!!! No wifi on the beach by Longshore rooms and one day with no electricity. All this was referred to staff …….no apologies. Also the hot tub was cold for a few days. The food was just ok and the pizza was horrible….mostly rubbery dough. In a positive note, Negril has one of the best staff in the chain. They are always smiling, happy and caring about the guests. We have known a lot of them for over 25 years. Service in the restaurants and bars was great!!! Read less
