Ocho Rios Craft Park Tours and Activities

Great property overall.

Slept well. Bed comfy and area around resort peaceful and quiet. Air conditioning in room is great but nothing in bathroom. Shower is so hard to figure out and it’s low flow. I kinda felt like I was at campsite where you can’t get a steady temperature and wash under a slow stream. The jacuzzi’s jets are broken. It just swirls hot water but no actual jets with force. The heat/ humidity/ bugs got to me. Meals including a private pay romantic dinner are outside. You just sweat and itch constantly. I didn’t care that beach is across from street but I did care about the loud music from the bar next door and party boats going in and out all day, You also spend all day saying “no thank you” to hustlers. If you are laying, eyes closed, they will keep saying “hey, hey you” until you sit and say “ no thank you”. You can’t walk along beach peacefully. There are miles of make shift “shops” in tarps at water’s edge. You may as well be walking along the state fair midway with people yelling for your attention. The rest of beach is other resorts with their DJs. Taxi Drivers, excursion people, guides….everyone is trying to shake you down for money…they are relentless “you gonna take care of me?” Anyone that was friendly, ended up asking for money or selling something. The resort was clean and staff pleasant, food good but I’d never go to a resort without a private beach again. There is only a private SECTION. The air smells like weed everywhere and pushers everywhere. I would not return.

This property was beautiful, and peaceful. I was only able to stay for a few days but I was still able to experience how warm and welcoming the entire staff was. The food was also amazing, one of the best that I experienced at an all inclusive resort. Everything was flavorful, which is exactly how I like it. The resort had amazing bartenders as well. When I come back to Jamaica I promise to stay at this resort again. My friend and I had an amazing time.
