  1. When we are looking for a hotel one of the first things we check is to see if it’s adults only. We’ve done our years of kids and like a bit of peace and quiet on our holidays now.

  2. Going to a new hotel is really exciting. Everything looks new and fresh. All the facilities are up to date and the latest spec.

    1. Hi Karen – agree entirely. I’ve done many visits to hotels when they’ve only just opened (or in some cases even before they’ve officially opened). Often there’s one or two teething problems but these are usually ironed out fairly quickly – that’s why it’s often a good idea for them to have a soft opening.

  3. As a Jamaican resident, it disheartens me that the customer service for this resort hasn’t been up to par since its launch. I believe this resort has the potential to rival the greats in Jamaica, i.e. Sandals and Couples, but I believe the pandemic really impacted service quality. 80% of all individuals I know who’ve been there, felt disdain. I will give it another 2 years to improve operations before its potential is really seen!
