The hotel

As well as enjoying a beautiful location on Negril’s famous 7-mile beach, Beaches Negril Resort & Spa is also family heaven. During the day, kids are kept entertained at the Kids Camp with Sesame Street® activities. For some fun in the sun, splashing around in the Pirates Island Waterpark will fit the bill perfectly! There's plenty for adults, too. If you don't fancy any of the excellent sports activities, you’ll soon fall in love with the white-sand beach or the Red Lane® Spa, where you can enjoy relaxing treatments in a quiet environment.

Overall great vacation for family of 5. Entertainment at 830p nightly was good, and the staff on that team are great with kids. Cabana rental is worth it as you get a server and stocked cooler, Natasha was great! My tip would be get private transport as it's much quicker, sandals/Beaches airport lounge was packed. Be prepared as it is a bumpy ride, so if you have kids that get car sick just be prepared (worth the ride). I would also get a concierge or butler level room. It definitely gets you better service, fast service, and more perks (room service not included at regular room level). Also..they say no tips but staff take tips...and the more you tip the better the service. Things happen faster and better so bring small bills, definitely improved our experience. Food is average but reservations were easy to get. I would avoid the Spa, to pricey even for a resort, and no real available amenities included like sauna, plunge or hot tubs. Over all great vacation and Beaches knows how to care for famailies. I would suggest they powerwash, paint, and fix the resort up. It's just a little dated and needs some work. It's not dirty or anything crazy, but fresh paint and TLC would go a long way. We rebooked for another property next year, and I am would recommend Beaches to families looking for a all-inclusive easy vacation. Read less

Just returned back from a trip to beaches Negril. We had the 4VP butler villa and there were 10 of us. I have to say this is our second time with this room category and I don’t know if I would change it. Wonderful space, steps from the beach plus with your own small backyard with a plunge pool and a table for eating outside, plus all the perks of having butlers it’s amazing and convenient. But of course what makes the stay even better are the wonderful staff - everyone that works at this resort are the most friendly and kind humans. Our butlers Neiko and Shanique (2nd time also) ALWAYS go above and beyond to make our stay so much more relaxing and better for everyone involved. If there is anything they can do or you need they’re on top of it everytime. From an issue with a coffee machine, a reservation at a restaurant, in room dining, your lunch delivered exactly how you want/like it and everything in between. My kids (6 and 4) think they’re the absolute best also which always makes it better when they’re comfortable and happy with how it’s going. Our cleaning staff had our room spotless everyday without a doubt and turned down after supper every evening (which could have been earlier or later depending on how tired everyone was) We watched two shows this time - the fire show and water show which were phenomenal. Kudos to the entire group who put it together and pull it off it was lovely - entertaining but short enough that it’s not too much for small children. There are a few things in the villas and around the resort which could use some TLC but overall good resort for sure. Read less

We're new to the all-inclusive experience, but in anticipation, we had lowered our expectation for food and service. That said, we were still left a bit disappointed, as food was spotty at best. Service, though kind, was not proactive or anticipating our needs (to be expected when renting the 4 bedroom butler suite). Waterpark and pools were not well maintained nor super clean (Lots of sand in the corners). Daily housekeeping was thorough and the beach and water was beautiful, though many jellyfish stings were common. The sweet spot was the kids club and general entertainment for younger kids. The price point for our given suite and time of year (Spring Break) did not represent a good value. If you REALLY manage expectations (this is not a 4 or 5 star experience), go into with the mindset it's "for the kids" and go not during a peak season, I could see how people LOVE these places.

This rating is not for the resort itself, it is for the customer service I received while trying to make a change to my reservation. I realize there’s a 30 day window to make changes, but I had a change in the amount of people that were coming because of the passport situation and I tried to cancel one of the 2 rooms that I booked with 2 weeks notice. I wasn’t asking for any money back at all but credit going toward my next trip. I am a diamond member and I’ve been going to various Sandals properties for over 20 years. I was treated poorly and dismissive by everyone I spoke to. Loyalty means nothing. This company has gotten too big to actually listen to the customer and make decisions that benefits everyone including them. All you get when you try to talk to someone is a call center. I was told that I would not be able to speak with anyone in leadership with this company which is a huge problem. This will be my last trip to sandals, which is very sad. I was looking forward to many me years of travel with my friends and my grandkids, but there are too many options to be treated this way. I’ve been very loyal and spent a lot of money and all I ask in return is some consideration and got nothing. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend Sandals anymore. Read less

This is NOT a five-star resort. That said, the food was good and the beach was beautiful, however...my biggest compliants: the room was basic, but at a five-star price, so that not worth the value. The kids club was very restrictive and my son, who generally loves hotel kids' clubs, hated this one. There is an awesome indoor playground, but the kids aren't allowed to use it! There are vendors on the beach and they are relentless. It really took away from the relaxing experience. Read less
