Great beach and pools! Entertainment staff was so talented and fun! We were there over US independence day and the staff made it a HUGE deal! Everything went so smooth from check in to check out.

This is our 7th or 8th Sandals visit, but 1st time at Negril. The resort is very much Sandals 1.0 -- a little outdated & tired, but the beach and the staff more than make up for it. Had some issues with the room, but they moved us after 1 night. My husband has a bad GI flare up on our 1st full day, and they took such good care of him! Floyd, our butler, found him fresh coconuts so he could drink soothing coconut water and got him the bland foods he needed, once he could eat again. Floyd & Myron both pivoted seamlessly on all our reservations, bringing me dinners in the room at the last minute when I didn't want to dine in a restaurant by myself. The ladies at Barefoot in the Sand & the Sundowner were just ... amazing. Trishan & Keethia and the other ladies checked in on us and took such good care of me! Love them to pieces! The beach is gorgeous, albeit a little shallower than it used to be, as I understand it, because of erosion from the hurricane. But it's still gorgeous and long. Food was good, and everyone took care to keep me safe, as I have Celiac Disease and must eat strictly gluten free. Dinners from Sundowner -- yum!! Overall, we love the quiet vibe and will come back.

Great location on a loverly beach. Water sports are excellent, and the staff are generally good. The hotel is shabby in lots of places, rooms are average at best. Some issues we found were, public toilets dirty with toilet paper. Difficulty getting a sunbed after 8am. Nowhere to cool off and get out of the sun. No bars are AC. Piano bar is not what it sounds (a lively sing along). It’s a shabby bar with derelict piano that is never played. If you are not butler service then you’re treat like a second class citizen (they get all the beds, butlers jump in front of you at the bars. We’ve done couples resort in Jamaica and it is far superior in every way. Read less

I enjoy the aquarobics with Kevon every morning at 10:15 in the pool. They also have a nice workout room with nice treadmills you can walk paths with incline in different parts of the world and listen and learn new facts about the place. The food is always amazing too. The breakfast buffet has such a wide variety for any kind of diet. It has a big beautiful beach a several pools to gather round. Many activities are planned throughout the day you can be a part of if you want to be a part of them. Read less
