Our 1st time here (and our 1st at any all-inclusive resort) and it was great. May is "rainy season" but the weather was actually pretty good most of the time. The ride from Montego Bay Airport to Ocho Rios takes about an hour and a half (depending on traffic). TIP: bring some money for the shuttle drivers and baggage porters... More

When you are on Sandals, it's fantastic and so relaxing. The food is good, the service is steady, and the views are spectacular. Worth the money. More

Vacation - May 12 to 20, 2012. We have stayed at Sandals and Beaches resorts five other times, in Montego Bay, Jamaica, on Turks and Caicos island and in Cuba. This was our first visit to this resort and to Ocho Rios. Absolutely breathtaking scenery. The 1-1/2 bus ride from airport to resort is very scenic and our driver gave... More

This is an EXCELLENT resort and we had an AMAZING week there. We found very little we could find fault with. If you want an upscale and varied vacation this is, without doubt, the place to be. The Grande Riviera is a large, private, tropically lush, beautifully maintained and promptly serviced slice of paradise. If you want to enjoy land,... More

Overall, we had a wonderful two weeks. Our room was awesome, mostly because of the balcony. We had Room 4222 which shared a balcony with 3 other rooms. The BEST balcony in the house. Directly above the open bar area of Jaime's and we had free entertainment nightly just below us! The room itself I don't believe had been remodeled.... More

This was our 2nd Sandals trip, the first one we went to Sandals Montego Bay 4 yrs ago and because we had such a wonderful experience, we decided to do another Sandals location for our 2nd wedding anniversary. We were there from 05/12 to 05/20. TRANSPORTATION: Just like the other reviews have mentioned, the resort is quite far from the... More

We had a wonderful experience. This resort is so beautiful. We enjoyed the size of it because there is so many areas to explore and because of the size you are never waiting on a lounge chair by a pool. The food was excellent and we went back to Soy for sushi about 4 times. If you eat at Kiminos... More
