“We stayed in Negril which was beautiful. The country as a whole was a lot poorer than I had expected. The part we stayed in wasn’t that close to any excursions so we didn’t do any. If we were to go again we would try a different part of the island. ”

Rating 9/10 - Mildred R

“very poor country outwith the resorts and major cities, but people generally friendly and helpful.Ochos Rios missing the cruise ships docking and this reflects in the over eager shop staff trying to pressure you into buying.Customs staff at airport might try smiling once in a while as it is not a good first impression for visitors in a country that relies on our income.”

Rating 10/10 - Colin J

“very poor and run down outside of complexes not changed much in 15 year last visit, very relaxing and enjoyable”

Rating 10/10 - Emma A

“We love this country - the second time we've been. The people are so friendly and we've come away with several new friends. The scenery is gorgeous and even being near the airport didn't bother us or ruin the hotel. Dunns River was an amazing experience only marred by the fact that we got caught by the locals trying to sell their wares on the way out, they try to offer you what they call gifts and engrave your name on wooden crafts which make you feel that you have to buy them even if you don't want them. Avoid them and the excursion is excellent. ”

Rating 10/10 - Darlia W

“Very pretty and lots to see and do. We took several tours and went to Martha Brae and Dunns River Falls. We were surprised by how much the country relies upon tourism as its main income”

Rating 9/10 - Moira W

“It was nice to see Jamaican people working in the industry. We took a tour to a crocodile safari and in sodoing we rode on a bus through the countryside. This is a lush green Island with rich and poor living alongside each other, literally! A massive well designed recent development with a basic wooden hut residence next door! The crime rate is high in places but as long as you keep in resort and play safe you should not experince anything untoward. We were offered illicit drugs as we lay on the beach on one occasion we simply passed it off. Driving - we had a bit of white knuckle drive to the airport by a hotel employee, not for the faint hearted but somehow he got us there in one piece....”

Rating 5/10 - Terry H

“spent most of time in resort, but prefered st lucia but did have a fab time”

Rating 5/10 - Barney E

“The hotel (Sandals Ocho Rios) was spectacular, as all Sandals resorts that I have visited are. However, as an island Jamaica isn't as pleasant as the other Caribbean islands. In terms of its landscape and beaches it is stunning, it's just the people are not friendly, you don't feel particularly safe (armed police everywhere puts you somewhat on edge) and everyone is out to make money out of you to an even greater extent than the other islands. Even the coach drivers openly ask you for money - a hint you can deal with, a blatant "can I have some money for doing my job please" is a little rude! Still a great holiday location though!”

Rating 10/10 - Emma A

“Best holiday I have ever had. Will be going back again soon ”

Rating 10/10 - Nicholas W

“We love it!!!”
