Sunset Jamaica Grande Resort, Ocho Rios

...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 ...

Review of Sunset Jamaica Grande Resort, Ocho Rios

This is a lovely hotel, you will be blown away by the lobby with it's comfy couches and replica Dunn's River Falls waterfall feature. My feeling however was that it was a bit fur coat - no knickers!

Review of Sunset Jamaica Grande Resort, Ocho Rios

Visited March 07.This was our first time at an All inclusive resort, so we chose our accomodation for the number of pools/bars & restaurants available. This hotel had plenty of all 3. I am an avid "review" checker and through trip advisor saw a mixed bag to say the least. Our personal experince of this hotel was wonderful. Check in went smoothly, rooms were a good size. It is worth e mailing the hotel directly before you arrive to ask for a high ...
...the restaurants were enjoyable, the Chinese being one of the best I've had, contrary to what other people say, you do not have to het up at the crack of dawn to book a table, so long as you're not too fussy about time you can go along at 11am and still have choice. Beach was beautiful, and the pool likewise, and both kept very clean. We went outside the resort a couple of times and as 2 25 year old girls we did not feel intimidated at all. All staff ...
