The service overall was outstanding. I’d especially recommend Chris and Marlon at the pool bar and Trishan at Perla. Both went above and beyond to welcome us home. There are many others around the resort that made our stay a real pleasure. While the resort is a little rundown and the front desk staff just okay, the rest of the staff make up for… Read more

We traveled from CA to Sandals Negril in Jan of 2025. We had never tried a Sandals resort so weren’t sure how we would like it. But we did like it- in fact, we loved it! Our room was spacious, clean, and looked out over the ocean. The housekeeping staff was amazing and took care of all our needs. We really enjoyed all the water sports and snorkeled each day. The variety and quality of food was exceptional. We found that while we enjoyed each of the restaurants, Barefoot by the Sea was our favorite. We met lots of nice people and can’t wait for our next trip (which we have already booked!) Read less

It was our first stay at a Sandals; and this Sandals is wonderful. The staff was awesome! They were helpful, cheerful, and in all ways firendly and engaging. We spent 6 days just chilling on the beach, sleeping and eating. We stayed in a second floor ocean facing room and loved it. Shout out to: Tashahai. She chased me down after I had left my phone on the table at Barefoor By The Sea. She caught up with me past the piano bar' I was almost to the ice cream shop. Also shoutout to Olivia, hostess at Bayside - She wins brightest smile and warmest greeting award, and to Chris at the piano bar; I never had to ask, he always knew what I wanted. I am not good at remembering names, or I would mention others as well. The Sandals Negril estaurants are very nice as well. The food at the Sundowner was especially good and rivaled any world class restaurant. All in all Sandals is a great place to kick back. Highly recommended! Read less

Beautiful beach, lovely resort, great food and cocktails, just let down by our room. Our view was of a busy, noisy road outside of our balcony doors and also damp/mould in the bathroom
