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!

I spend only four days at this resort, but it was the best four days of my life. T he staff was great, the food was very good. The resort is safe and quiet. I was definitely be going back to this resort, b maybe later in the fall.

Our stay was fantastic! The shower hot water was not working for the first night but the staff fixed it within an hour after I called. Everybody is friendly. Plan to go back already.

Classic, elegant, old world perfection. Visiting this hotel is like stepping back in time. Most beautiful, unique beautifully tropical landscaped grounds. Smiles, genuine hospitality and special touches abound. The five days we spent there were utterly serene and dream like. We kept making plans to leave the property but each time we would look at each other and say, why leave heaven? We went for a "baby moon" and it was romantic and chill, and we ate tons of great food. This would be a great place to take young children, or extended families/groups. Both the rooms in the Pineapple House overlooking the ocean or one of the magnificent villas are equally special. The spa was excellent, there is a whole separate area of the resort that is a tranquility zone where kids aren't allowed as well (and a Kid Zone with nannies etc.). Tennis, watersports, fantastic snorkeling, we had two hilarious guys take us out on a glass bottom boat, dinner on the beach, the infinity pool, tea in the afternoon, smoothie bar and breakfast buffet, the list goes on and on. I can't recommend this hotel enough. It will be a special memory you will never forget. Worth every cent! Thanks to all the staff, the GM Omar, Kingsley the concierge and everyone who took such good care of us. We look forward to a return visit and becoming part of the Round Hill family.

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.

Jewel Dunn's is a great resort! This was our first time to Jamaica and am glad we chose this resort. The staff was very friendly and and very accomadating. The grounds were kept very clean. Always something to do if you wanted to or just do nothing and lay around. The tour desk was very helpful in planning outside resort activities. Jewel Dunn is very close to Dolphin Cove and Dunn River Falls. The variety of food was good. Only downside was it took about 1 1/2 hours to get there from airport, but that allowed you to see some of the island along the way. Would love to visit the Jewel Dunn again sometime.

good place to relax,very clean grounds and public areas
