NOT ALL-INCLUSIVE. The resort is a dream! The staff an absolute joy! The rooms and premises are kept pristine at all times. Fresh coconut water at all times! A must if you’re looking to relax and enjoy a paradise type of beach. Shareable bikes to get around. Two nice pools and lots of open and private beach areas! The food is fantastic. Best island vacation we’ve had! Love Jamaica, we’ll be back!
