We just returned from Sandals Grand Riviera last week. We had a wonderful time with a group of friends. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was clean and beautiful with gardens and several pools to choose from. We actually enjoyed that the property was large enough that although they were full capacity we did not feel crowded.... More

This was the second time @ this resort. The first was 3 years ago for our honeymoon. We love this place so much we consider it our 2nd home. Everyone was SO WONDERFUL. I talked with our butler before we arrived to set up a suprise dinner for my husband on our anniversery and he knew nothing. When we arrived... More

My boyfriend and I just recently visited the Sandals Grande Riviera in Ocho Rios Jamaica. After quite a long journey with flights, we got to the airport and were greeted by Sandals representatives who took our bags right away. They divided us up at the Sandals lounge and took us to the busses right away. Before we got on the... More

Poor customer service; We had issues with pictures and received no assistance from Management on our honeymoon. The female staff were rude towards female guests and never smiled and the male staff look like they had never seen women before. One staff had the nerve to try to look down my wife's dress during dinner. We wrote emails to complain... More

My fiance and I vacationed with 6 of our friends for 8 days during the month of January. We all said that we have had the best vacation ever. We have all been to different Sandals and resorts and by far this was the best. The service, food, amenities and scenery were amazing! We also thought that we got a... More

We were slightly deceived with the resort from looking at the online map. It is 2 seperate resorts with a main road between the two. It didnt bother us at all, we stayed on the ocean side. Some Places were better than others, Kellys dockside was amazing, but very hard to get a reservation. We took several tours and enjoyed... More

It has been two years to the date since my husband and I returned from our 7 year wedding anniversary. The bus ride took 1.5 hours from the MoBay airport, they only had beer to drink upon our arrival and then we sat on the bus what seemed like forever until we could depart! So when they make it sound... More
