I submitted one recommendation on the Jewel website but wanted to add the following-as your staff are truly the shining stars of this resort. It was so well run and so relaxing. I can't possibly thank each of the staff who were so warm and welcoming! But bartenders Sherene, Keron and Lenford will certainly be missed for their contagious smiles... More

I been to Jamaica over 40 times mainly to the Runaway Bay area. This was the first time to this resort. The rooms were the best with a refrigerator and plunge pool. The refrigerator was filled with beer, soda, Juices, and water daily. It was nice to come back to the room and have a drink next to your private... More

This was our first time in Jamaica and we absolutely loved it. We highly recommend this resort, it’s a smaller resort but we enjoyed it very much and would not hesitate to go back.

My husband and I just returned from The Jewel Runaway Bay (May 4th - 9th, 2013) and it was just great. Some of the reviews you read can make you skeptical but I always take into consideration that some people are just too hard to please and want to complain about the littlest of things. If they complained about this... More
