SeaGarden Beach Resort

My boyfriend and I stayed for a one week package. We read the reviews and still went ahead and booked our stay anyway. The deal was sweet and we are the type of couple that prefer authentic places oppose to over saturated tourist places. This hotel is one of the few that are actually Jamaican owned and the grounds are full of flowers, plants and trees that are beautifully taken care of. This was the first thing we loved about it. The food was a little repetitive which we didn't mind because we took advantage of going out and exploring Jamaica (note the girl who makes eggs for breakfast infront of you was lovely). The staff was amazing especially the rasta lifeguard and the beach bar staff specifically Andre the Taurus! The reception was the only staff we felt inconvenient to. Anytime we spoke with them or called they always treated us misreably. Our room was a ocean view room. Nothing fancy about it. The water tap kept changing from very to hot to super cold in the shower, but after the second or third day we got the hang of it. The people who clean the rooms were friendly and more than accommodating to any needs of ours like more water bottles or towels. The men who are the front of the hotel were awesome as well. They checked on us like family every time we seen them. Made us feel special. The beach is across the street but literally is a few seconds walk. We actually liked being seperate from the hotel pool. It gave us options. One thing I wouldn't recommend is the store on site. The prices are inflated... For us it made more sense to walk down the road to the locals right beside the supermarket to make purchases. Things are hand made and they don't charge you ridiculously! Overall we would definitely stay here again and actually will be returning with the kids. I think some people come here expecting a Riu hotel experience without "paying" the Riu price. If you're looking to stay in the "Real Jamaica" I would recommend here as you are also giving back to the locals. As a couple we were happy with our privacy and great service. These people work so hard so don't forget to tip.

Removed enough to be a great stand alone resort yet close enough to town for an easy walk to the hip strip. Highlights of this place are the small little private coves to swim and snorkel in and the great bar service and people. It is big enough to have good amenities yet small enough that everyone gets to know each other including the staff. Daily entertainment at the pool was very surprisingly way better than we expected. Buffet food had great variety and was excellent. Definitely recommend this place as the place to stay in Montego Bay.

Where do I start - this is by far the worst all - inclusive resort I've ever stayed at in Montego Bay. We stayed at SeaGarden from Mar 1 - Mar 5. ROOM We booked a Deluxe Garden View/Pool View. Upon arrival, we were placed at the back part of the hotel where the construction was. Our "view" was that of a sheet metal wall. We went back to the main desk to complain and were told that all rooms were sold out and they were unable to accommodate our request. The room at first glance is nice, but there is no hot water for the shower. It was luke-warm at best and would switch to cold water on its own. Room service was very stingy with towels. We advised them it was three people in the room. On a daily basis we kept receiving 2 towels. I found pubic hairs in my washcloth on more than one occasion and had to repeatedly ask for another. HOSPITALITY My mom ended up getting sick on the trip and was unable to move around so we needed to bring food to the room. The staff made one hell of a fuss about it and treated my brother as if he was stealing (food that is obviously paid for). The treatment of guests is absolutely disgusting (unless you're of a certain color and they feel you are dishing out tips) FOOD There is no variety in food. They basically served the same thing on a daily basis.You could tell by the staleness that it was leftovers from the previous day. Being of Jamaican origin, I was HIGHLY disappointed in the Jamaica dishes. The food overall was bland. ENTERTAINMENT The entertainment was dead and awful. It wasn't lively at all. Certain nights it was almost as if they just threw something together. After the "show" you could go to the disco that was almost always dead. OVERALL I will never stay here again. SeaGarden is not worth the money they charge.

Hubby, daughter, and I stayed here for 5 nights. On the pro side: from the room to the pool area everything was clean, private beach was amazing, and the people were very friendly. On the con side: the room was sparse, the plumbing needs to be upgraded (had issues of the toilet not flushing correctly and the shower water temp was hard to adjust and maintain temp), and the food was bland at best and over cooked with very little variety. Overall, the resort needs a bit of TLC. The room location was not very quiet in general and the 5:30 am lawn care wasn't a nice wake up call.

My Husband & I stayed at the SeaGarden Beach “All-Inclusive” Resort on March 3-16 2019. We had an AMAZING time here on our 2 week stay. It’s clean with friendly and helpful staff and has a gift shop on site. It’s a smaller resort, but is being upgraded with construction right now for more rooms and beach Amenities! Has all the amenities that we needed and love the fact that it is owned by Mr. Morgan, a local native of Jamaica. This means, No Timeshare Pressure!!!! Food and drink is always plentiful 7am-10pm, the property is beautiful, our room was nice with Ocean View, loved the balcony in the morning and evenings. We are already planning our next trip here for another beautiful 2 weeks. Can’t wait!!
