A fabulous couple of weeks in Jamaica!

RuthNeilBlue (Failsworth, United Kingdom) on Apr 04, 2024

We enjoyed our two weeks in Negril at Rooms. It was half way along 7 mile beach, which meant we had the option of walking left or right! The beach is beautiful, lots of bars and restaurants along it. Different people told us they had stayed at several of the other places along the beach and that Rooms was the best & how lucky we were that it was our first choice. It is right on the beach and you can either sunbathe on the beach within the small wall of the hotel or take your sun-lounger and umbrella onto the main beach on the other side of the wall. The people who come up and down the beach selling their wares are all lovely and would leave you alone if you said “no thank you”. The Pattie man and the Bread man you must buy from, very tasty food! I love a bed & breakfast rather than an all inclusive, so that you have to venture out and immerse yourself in the culture of the locals. Which is why Rooms suited me. Rooms is Nextdoor to a great bar called Woodstock, (so ask for a room on the opposite side if you don’t like loud music, or take earplugs) . The beds were comfy. Our room was huge, upstairs facing the sea. We had to move rooms twice, one was due to having no aircon and the second because the shower tap was falling off. Otherwise it all went smoothly. We would definitely go back and stay here.

Great stay at Rooms on the Beach

Paula B on Mar 17, 2024

Place is small, friendly and comfortable. Office, restaurant, bar, ice machine and our room was close to the beach which was great. Not a 5* by any means as needs some TLC (we had mold on the ceiling and AC in our room) but we were comfortable and would definitely go back. Beach is beautiful with plenty of choices for restaurants and bars. The restaurant at Rooms only serves Breakfast and Lunch. For breakfast was toast, fruit, one egg, sweets, juice, tea or coffee or you can order from the menu as you want to pay. Their lunch was delicious and very reasonably priced. Loved that we were walking distance to a small variety store "Sweet Spot" to buy our water and pop. Also really close to Miss Sonia's for her delicious patties and Caletta's for their delicious dinners. Also, ate at Best in the West which is known for their Jerk Chicken. You can travel around in their local Route Taxi or hire your own cab. It can be a bit noisy at night because of the bars on the beach but we wore ear plugs. Staff was very friendly especially Charmaine at the front desk. This place is a great location and very affordable but as mentioned this is not for you if you are looking for a 5*.

Dated, but pleasant! Great location!!

bernettek2020 on Mar 03, 2024

I will start this review with the negative comments... Hotel/rooms are dated but clean. could use some re-vamping The beer bottles in piles around the property were very off-putting. Having to haul our luggage up a very long flight of steps was difficult, especially owing to the fact that my partner has issues with one leg and has to wear a brace. On the positive side... the staff were very friendly and always helpful!! Special mention to Charmaine, Tenisha, Iesha, and Darnet. The beachfront was maintained very well, although they had had a severe storm a couple days before we arrived and there were mounds of seaweed on the beach. There were beach towels and beach chairs enough for everyone. Breakfasts were great! We had the continental breakfast each morning and my partner who is a big eater was very satisfied. I however, am not a huge breakfast person, so found it too much. I asked for smaller quantities after the first morning and they were happy to oblige. There were restaurants and good "street foods" right across from the hotel and short walks from the hotel. Would I return to Rooms...I won't say NO. We met a lot of visiting Canadians, which was a positive. Honestly, this was our first time staying in a non-all inclusive hotel, so it was different!
