Montego Bay, Jamaica Hotel Rooms at the Independent

Nice private hotel near Ocho Rios. The staff make you feel like you are a part of their family. Andre and Michelle at the front desk are great. I was traveling alone and didnt feel at all scared or lonely!!!

This is an awesome non-inclusive villa. We had a two bedroom, two bath apartment. Fully equipped kitchen. Ocean view. The owners would accommodate any requests, from extra towels to printing your boarding passes for your return trip. There are air-conditioners in each bedroom, which was very adequate as you had ceiling fans in the large remaining living room/kitchen combo room with ocean breezes going through. The only drawback we had was their hot water system is by solar so you really don't have adequate hot water until about 11:00 a.m. We finally mentioned this to the owner after the 3rd day and he said he had a backup heating system if we would have let him know. However, we never asked him to do it, so it was not done. We simply adjusted. It is about a 30 minute drive to Montego Bay. You will need to rent a car, like we did, or hire a driver to take you places which I saw one couple do. I would stay here again. It is gated and very peaceful and very comfortable great place to be.

If you're staying in Montego Bay look no further. This is one of the best places I've ever stayed - great location, beautiful rooms and absolutely wonderful staff. Clarissa and Jeremy really go the extra mile to make their guests comfortable - make sure you try the daily breakfast (There's an option of Jamaican or American) it's fantastic. Devon (the hotels driver) is fantastic and showed us a great time in Jamaica. There is nothing I can fault about this place, I'd return in a heartbeat!

The wife and I just got back from a weeks stay. The hotel and grounds are both wonderful, and the staff could not have been more helpful. We went out to eat most nights and suggestions of where to eat we're always spot on.

Words cannot begin to describe this place. Every aspect of this property is absolutely phenomenal. From the concerige, chef, villa to the immaculate kept grounds leaves nothing to be desired. Should you not book this wonderful place, you'll definitely be doing yourself a disservice. ..and that's putting it lightly. 2000 characters doesn't give enough to truly write everything that I can say about this beautiful place. You absolutely have to see it for yourself to believe but hands down one of the best places to stay in Ochi.

This resort was a welcome respite from the part of our Jamaican vacation that included the harsh, gritty, chaotic side of the island's charm. While driving in the country, experiencing food and beer from roadside stands and meeting a wide range of people was interesting and fun, being pampered by the staff of the Round Hill resort was wonderful. The setting of the resort is a treat for the eyes and the soul. The attention to detail of the service and the environment was exceptional.

Very nice small hotel. The staff is terrific, the food is top notch. This is not a high-end, fancy place, just comfortable, with a great beach and solid facilities.

My experience at the jewel Dunn's river was excellent only for a the receptionist was very rude but overall it was a good experience

My family visited Jewel Paradise Cove the week after Christmas, and it was the best vacation ever! We've been to many Caribbean islands and Jamaica was by far the best experience. There was so much to do and the food was awesome. Lots of food choices. We also LOVED the entertainment staff, especially Nella. She made us feel so welcome and we had so much fun!

Outstanding service!!! Staff and personnel are friendly and helpful which made my stay very enjoyable. I choose this Hotel due to central location (Montego Bay), which allows to get the best of Jamaica (MBay, Ocho Rios and Negril). Food was very nice, mini-bar in the room was always full. I booked a garden view room but got upgraded without asking to a beach front room. Is not the most luxurious hotel I´ve ever been but definitely the best serviced. Thanks for everything.
