A group of us are talking about staying there over New Years. Not even sure where to start outside of their website (so I do know where to start).

Anyone stayed at any of their resorts? Advice?

Gracias or as they said in Jamaica, thank you

Ocho Rios is the one the Sandals chat lady just recommended


Yeah, That's the One !!

Great Place, BUT...........it is a 90 min Ride ( By BUS ) from the Airport. :ohno:
Unless you go for an extra $100 bucks to take a "Puddle Jumper" @):mad:

years ago my sisters kid got married...sent us all to Sandals..

back then there was the "SANDALS INN"....a dump by Sandals standards...

It didn't matter cause we had access to all the prime Sandals Spots...

Anyway...10 of us (outta 35)...stayed....said fuck it..

the rest went onto Sandals Grande Ocho Rios Beach & Golf Resort...

Now the latter is very cool and very expensive in comparison to the former..

Anyway...back at the ""DUMP'''...the got to know the bartender...quite well

So well, in fact, he gave us the keys to the bar and told us to lock up ""EVERY NIGHT WHEN WE WERE DONE""...

His only thing was...make sure ya clean-up...and someone bring the keys in the AM..(by 10:45)..

This went on for 6 days (DAZE..hehe)...

A lot of the guest got wind of what we were doin'...

THEN IT JUST BECAME A PARTY...PERIOD...

Damn...I needed Betty Ford after that..

After all was said and done we tipped the guy $2k...(btwn..10 of us)...

don't know what the others gave...but TOP SELF...YOUR the BARTENDER for 6 day.....

PRICELESS...

THE guy about SHIT WHEN HE SAW THE MONEY....TO FUNNY..

The other place was nice too....(<)<

Stay at the Sunset Beach, Montego Bay. All inclusive and food was very good.

The wife and I went last year, had a blast. We found a cab driver outside of Doc Cave Beach(have to go here) great beach!

This guy was great, took us up to Dunn's River Falls, into small villages and roadside bars to chat with the locals and drink Red Stripe.

Only bad thing about Jamaica is the Hustlers, and man there are tons of them.

If you want the guys number, I can get it for you if you PM me, he will take you any where you want for cheap.

He charged us $100 for all day tours, we were gone for about 8 hours, not bad. And he keeps ya safe, good guy. Mr. Cool is his name.

You guys will have a blast. PM me if you need any info.

Also, $1 tip will get you great service, no suppose to tip at the resorts and if they are caught accepting they get in trouble. But give them a $5, and you get excelleint service.

I left $5 each day for the maid, our room was super clean every day.

Just got back 3 weeks ago from the Sandals Grande in Ocho Rios. Had a large villa suite with private pool and butler service. Anything you want to know just ask - We were there for a week and I will let you know all the good as well as the bad.

I never thought to tip anyone, because Sandals hammers you with "no tipping". But get this, I didn't tim and my room was still super clean every day.
