I am writing a review based on my visit a few years back. I went with my husband the 1st time and the following year our daughter had her destination wedding there with 30 people. Everything at this resort was 10/10. we absolutely love it there. we are going back with friends end of November 2026 and cannot wait. Hoping by then all the renovations will be completed. I'm sure it will be. Hope to see some familiar faces as I loved all the people that worked there. :-)

This resort is a favourite of mine and I keep coming back! The grounds are beautiful and well maintained the pools are large and lots of empty loungers with canopies near the pool itself, pool entertainment is some of the most energetic in Jamaica and will surely make you laugh many many times. The beaches are beautiful and great for snorkelling with a breakwater making for clear water and lots of colourful sealife. The rooms are always well kept and clean the food and service is spectacular. The staff make this place special and memorable they strive to make you feel at home. Its a resort you can come back to over and over and have a new experience each time. Shoutout to Spicy D for the best experience every time cant wait to see you all again April 2026!!!

Only there a few days . There are two complexes but this one is adults only and you have more choices for restaurants. The room was very big. There is a small beach cove area but if you walk to the beach of the other complex you can swim and the beach is way bigger. The food was excellent. Make sure to take advantage of all the activities and they also have bikes . Lots of walking around. Calculate about an hour from the airport in case of traffic. Best and faster to use the hotel transfers for a fee.

The nude beach was a 10/10. Definitely a must try. More signs are needed to highlight that a nude beach is located on property as a lot of persons don’t know this.

This was our 3rd time staying at the Bahia in Jamaica - 2nd time on the Luxury side. It is one hour away from the Montego Bay airport, which isn't fun and it's not cheap to get there. The Luxury side is quiet, so if you are looking for a bit more then you should walk over to the Grand side. Restaurants and buffets are centrally located on the Grand side, so do plan to walk some if you are on the far sides of the resort. It is hard to get into the a la carte restaurants. If you don't book them upon the first day of your arrival, it will be difficult to get in. Our room was average - ocean front, king bed, jacuzzi tub. It was very clean. The mattress in our room was worn. You can tell it needs to be replaced because both sides were a bit sunken in. The mini bar is nice, but they only restock drinks not snacks. The elevator closest to our room worked intermittently. The door keypad to our room also broke at one point. The room service menu is very limited and doesn't change. It doesn't have any breakfast items other than fruit. The overall atmosphere of the resort is typical of an all-inclusive. There are activities at the pool and on the beach, but you have to go off property to Mo Bay and Ocho Rios if you want to see anything else. That said, off property activities are expensive. We went to Dolphin Cove, which was really fun. I recommend that experience. We also visited the Bob Marley mausoleum. Not worth it in my opinion. It's a very long, bumpy, and windy road getting there. Once you are there, it's a bunch of shops then you see his childhood home, his and his mother's mausoleum, and some of his record plaques. You are able to smoke marijuana the whole time, so I do not recommend this if you do not smoke or have kids with you. The staff, for the most part, are friendly and inviting, but I will say that I did not feel quite the same as I did the first time. Beware that they do not carry Budweiser and any other top shelf liquors like Tito's are an extra cost, which, to me, seems silly at an all-inclusive. They are making updates and changes to the resort, which is great. It will be interesting to see what they do with the Bahia Village over the next year. Also beware that Jamaica is a poor country, so you will be asked to tip everyone. Getting around is expensive. Renting a car is expensive. Always have cash on hand!
