We loved the nestled atmosphere and genuine people!
Melanie K (Toronto, Canada) on Mar 23, 2024
I travelled to Montego Bay (Jewel Grande) during March break (8-15). We had a wonderful vacation! My father is Jamaican and I have been a number of times but this was our first at an all inclusive in Jamaica. Jewel Grande was highly recommended by friends. I’ve consulted with all members of the family and have these thoughts to share. Although a bit smaller than we expected, the experience felt like you were right at home. We loved the nestled atmosphere and genuine people. Pros: amazing food (lots of variety), white sandy beach, warm clear water. The staff are amazing, from Kevin the aerobics instructor who is no joke! Gives you just enough of a workout that you don’t feel guilty drinking so much during the day. The Cabanas are great! You have to pay extra but it makes the experience all the better. Wilford, Dwayne and another young lady are exceptional! Loved the conversations and excellent service they gave throughout the long sunny days (we did two!). The water sports are so much fun. Hendric (and all other lifeguards) are superb! We went out on a pretty windy day and Hendric managed the boat with such ease and made the ride so bumpy and fun, it was the highlight for my daughter! My husband and daughter went for a day tour (horse riding) Nicolette was great with organization. I decided to do a spa day. Charmaine my masseuse massaged knots that I never knew were there. I decided to do the massage outside and it was windy. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. That was my highlight! The gift shop lady (we’ve forgotten her name) but she may remember us, we bought lots including a bathing suit cover and we had a good laugh! The Kids Club is great, lots of unique activities both inside and out. The fact that we remember all these names should tell you something about this resort and Jamaicans. Slight negatives that are more structural issues: If you have issues with stairs, this might not be the place for you. The restaurants are located in different locations and it’s a series of stairs to get to any restaurant/back to your room, to the beach, etc. Stollers have to be carried. My daughter wanted me to write that if you have an only child, think about coordinating the trip with another family. The Kids Club was fun but all alone inside, not so much. The pools are quite small (one kidney shape). If anyone is playing volleyball, you’re basically out of luck, most likely nestled in a corner. The water was also very cold. Maybe not bad with the hot days. We’re not pool people so it didn’t matter. The beach, the water section, is somewhat small and only goes to about your upper thigh. I get it, any further and it’s hard to keep watch. Lastly, the nightly entertainment. Yikes! Don’t get me wrong, the young folks dancing are absolutely amazing, so dedicated and enthusiastic. However, not sure Michael Jackson is relevant any more. The shows, which our friends told us about, are the same week in week out and dated. I’ve seen this Michael Jackson show at so many different resorts 20 years ago. Folks looked forward to evenings but you could feel the energy drain after 15 minutes of just looking at endless sachet and twirls. Aside from the fun exciting engaging Reggae night which had an audience member sign along with the main signer (she could hold her own) while we all danced along, the other days were painful to watch. They need a revamp: Afrobeats (Calm down), magicians (kids would love it), bring some of the nightclub (headphone dancing) outside for younger kids, maybe karaoke, comedian, more participation in terms of dancing. Everyone simply wants to let loose. That’s it! Overall, a wonderful vacation. Proud of my people and Jamaica! Would definitely go back!
Best trip ever (so far)

No other trip comes close. My family still talks about the food, fun and staff at the Jewel Grande. There were fun activities and my kids could explore on their own safely. We had a butler and fantastic service with no strings attached. Wish we could go there every year!
