Grand facilities at the 'Grande'
Advantages: Lots of facilities and good choice of restaurants Disadvantages: Rooms are more basic than you'd probably expected
...The hotel:
The Sunset Jamaica Grande is a hotel in the 'Sunset' group of hotels. The hotel is the largest of the three in the group and is rated as a 4 star standard. The hotel is made up of one main building and two tower blocks which are very easy to spot from a distance due to their bright yellow colour! Location:
The hotel sits on the edge of the bay and in a prime position directly on the beach which is also private to hotel guests. The hotel ... ...Bay airport. Across from the hotel in the opposite bay is where all the cruise ships dock - far enough away for there to be any noise disruption but, close enough to watch them go by.
First impressions:
I knew what it looked like from looking at it on the internet and from pictures in brochures so I knew what to expect in terms of the building exterior but, it really does hit you how big the hotel is as you pull up. The lobby is very large with ...

best holiday ever
Advantages: staff members, food, drinks Disadvantages: rooms
i went to runaway bay royal decameron club over the summer at the end of june with my mum and dad and had best time ever, i know that some people might complain about the cleanliness about the cottages, but as i think everything was just brilliant, could of been little bit more cleaner, but what do you want from 3 star resort and you are not gonna spend most of time in yuor cottage anyways. so once we got to resort all the people were so friendly ... ...in reception area we had drinks ready for us, what made it more perfect, then once you get checked in you get someone to help you with the luggage, but make sure you tip the guys so they remember you and help you next time =] i made so many friends in there and all the staff members were just brilliant, specially the bar man jerome, love him for bits, so girls keep away from him lol. and george, the oldest barman probably aint so great to be honest ...

overall very good.
Advantages: central location, spacious rooms Disadvantages: I got robbed
i stayed at this hotel about 2 years ago. lets start with the positive , it was in a fabulous location, and really close to the airport, which after a long flight from t he UK was just what was needed. THe rooms were spacious and mine led on to the hotels private beach with golden sand and blue water, i know its a cliche but its true. Also the food was fantastic, a brilliant variety and expertly cooked. also the grounds were well maintained. Montego ... ...the sumfest in july which is an experience not to be missed.

You Must Try It!
Advantages: All-Inclusive, Food, Drinks, Ammenities Disadvantages: Bus Ride From Airpot.
AWESOME! This was my first trip to Jamaica, and all I can say is that is was great.
The staff was awesome, and are all VERY nice and will help you with ANYTHING you need.
The All-Inclusive part of the stay was also a first for me, and I have nothing bad to say about it. The food was great no matter where we ate, and the premium drinks were well done.
If you are going to Jamaica and have kids, this is the place to go, with 3 pools, slides, Xbox ... ...wrong.
The people who work there are not only very helpful, but are very efficient as well.
MUST go at least once!
OK now some info:
The rooms were spacious, and clean. 2 double beds that were pretty comfortable and we slept well. The couch had a pull out bed so one of us could sleep on it. We als had a mini fridge that was stocked every day, and all items in it were included, no extra fees. We had a patio right off our room, and we were supplied ...

Advantages: Nice weather, beach, breakfast Disadvantages: lots of 'husters', poor evening meal, didnt feel very secure
...details:
-------------------
We stayed at Country Country in Negril for 2 weeks for our honeymoon, from 8th August - 22nd. We booked through Thomsons for a total price of £1,895 on B&B basis. We had to fly from Gatwick Airport (which for us was a bit of a nightmare as we had to fly down from Durham Tees the night before...but never mind about that). We had been dreaming about the sandy beach, the relaxed atmosphere and the lovely sun for months, ... ...all seemed great, except as I read more and more reviews we heard more and more about the 'Beach Vendors' who try to sell you anything you could possibly think off - really.

Arrival at the hotel:
-------------------------------
We arrived at Montego Bay airport in the afternoon, around 3pm, collected our bags, got our passports stamped and so on. A friendly baggage handler helped me and my wife take our bags to ...
