If you think large all inclusive resorts are not for you Sandals Ochi will change you mind, in the right room category. We wanted a more intimate, relaxed, vacation, and the Pool Side Club Level Villa Room (NPV) was perfect. We only saw our neighbors once a day for a short period of time. They were younger, and I guess they were busy playing golf, scuba diving, climbing waterfalls, or partying at one of the swim-up bars. After visiting Jamaica for over 50 years we have circled the island, and done all of that. We now enjoyed having a fabulous room service breakfast delivered pool side, and lounging until the afternoon. The HOP bus was easily available to go beachside to get something to eat for lunch, and enjoy a couple of hours at the beach. We enjoy the ocean, but prefer to listen to the waves rather than the pool activity. There are quieter spots if you walk to the other beach, but that puts you further away from the first stop on the HOP, or a longer walk to the second HOP stop. We never had difficulty making a reservation for the few restaurants that required one. Kelly’s was one of our favorites, and Alloy was a wonderful waiter. Sheldon and Neil gave us excellent service on the day we rented one of the four cabanas. The pool activities are just slightly muted by being that close to the water. We would definitely do it again. Lydia, at the Jerk Shack, was delightful, and very sweet when we ran into her the only morning we made it to Southern Table for a great breakfast. Lenneil’s big bright smile, and wonderful service, was a joy to be around. The manager at the Loyalty Office (sorry I forgot her name) was very helpful in getting answers about our reward points. This big all-inclusive, in the NPV category, has really won us over. Thanks for a great, quiet, trip!

This resort was everything!!! The views the people the food everything was amazing!!! Jadday at the French breakfast restaurant was very attentive and wonderful!!! Ovaldo Kelly seaside grill server was great as well he recommend this drink that was amazing and gave us superior service. Mr Earl gave us a tour of our home and was always available when we needed him. Ms Dora and Ramone were also wonderful and entertaining made the drive home fun. It was a party by the pool Chris Jolly made the best drinks!!! Made the party extra lit lol. The best meal was the hibachi restaurant I forgot the chefs name but I will insert a picture I had the best time there he was sooo polite and made great convo and food. Really all the staff was amazing and woukd greet you and ask if you needed anything: compared to my last trip to Jamaica this one was the best. Book the trip you wont regret!! And they take you to and from the airport that’s the only time u will tip is at the airport but I recommend bringing some singles just to show a little love .

The resort is stunning and the staff are exemplary! The highlight of our trip was snorkeling with Tahjay from the water sports crew. He gave us the most incredible memories. We were lucky to meet him in the sandals lounge at MBJ on our flight in and build a relationship with him there. When we arrived and set up snorkeling trips, he was professional, kind and so great at educating us with anything we asked. We did the standard snorkel trips and took the trip out to the shipwreck. Going out in that depth of water for the shipwreck was new for us, but having Tahjay there made us feel so much more comfortable. He took the time to point out sea life, get us footage with our go pro and truly was a pleasure to snorkel with. We are looking forward to returning in 2026 to snuba and potentially become scuba certified with him.

We had an amazing expiriences at Ochi, the pool was amazing, Patrice from the entertainment was fabulous at the line dancing and entertainment throughout the day and the rest of the entertainment team at night. The drinks and food have been amazing as well as all the staff being so friendly and accommodating.

Enjoyed our trip to Sandals Ochi. Were booked in a Sandals closer to Montego Bay but found that resort closed until May due to damage incurred by Hurricane Melissa.. The food was consistently good, the resort property was lovely. We did not venture to the "hill" until the last day as we were able to completely enjoy ourselves near the beach. The best part were the people working there. Huge shout out to Samantha in the gift shop who went way above and beyond to get us something we needed that was in the other gift shop on the hill. She was extraordinarily helpful. Our flight home on Sunday was cancelled as all NYC airports were closed. We were able to return home on Thursday and Sanomi at the front desk was so helpful at making sure we could stay in the same room for the extra days and rearranged our transfer. Shout out to Tishana and especially Kayciann at the pool. Unfailing friendly, attentive, personable and professional they added to our enjoyment every day.
