Hotels near Kwaaman & Tacky Waterfalls

"The buffet staff were rude. 1 guy became combative with me because my daughter ordered the wrong drink when in reality she could not understand him due to the language barrier but she did not want to be rude so she accepted whatever he said he would bring her. One of the pool guys told me that “if you let the umbrella up and the wind blows it into someone then it’s on you and your responsibility” Hmmm the pool side umbrellas are meant to be used. But these are just 2 out of MANY examples of the poor customer service this staff displayed. The resort is well kept and clean. The service and attitudes of the staff was the worst experience I ever encountered in my many years of visiting Jamaica."

"The Jamaican breakfast served was great. The pool was smaller than I thought and it’s in between the restaurant and bar. But overall, for a short stay it’s doable."

"The Jamaica Inn is a one of a kind property. They don't make them like this anymore! It is not a chain. It is not a plastic duplicate of way too many other resorts out there that are constantly in our faces. It is a magical place with beautiful, lush grounds, friendly, accommodating staff, and the charm of yesteryear. The lovely verandas, professional staff, and beautiful beach & grounds will definitely keep me coming back. The cocktail hour and buffet on the beach were truly memorable."

"Breakfast is always worth it"

"Clean rooms, great amenities, clean pool, excellent hot tub, and friendly yet professional staff. "

"Amazing property, the food was a highlight and the staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly!"

"The staff and amenities were good, but we have given this property a five star rating for its location, setting and vibe. It is further down the coast from the big gated resorts and is close to the white river. If you’re independently minded and like doing your own thing - perhaps with a rental car as we had, or even if you don’t- then this offers more freedom than a mega resort . One other thing we liked was that it is popular with Jamaican visitors, not just tourists . It enabled a lot more cultural exposure. The breakfast is excellent, with eggs cooked to order, or a Jamaican breakfast . A small quiet beach and colourful murals as decor make it feel quite personable. There is a bar and an ocean deck. There is also free parking. The accommodation is actually a beach hotel and not a resort like others in Ocho Rios- with multiple pools and the like. It is also a slightly older property with a rustic charm. If you want a flashy and new resort, where you’ll only meet tourists and staff, this is not the place for you. If you want an authentic, decent quality beach hotel vibe and a great base for exploring then we strongly recommend the Sand and Tan"

"Our experience here at Sandals Ochi was amazing!! We just came home April 30th 2026 and were there celebrating my husband and I's honeymoon, as well as my birthday and it was the best way to do it! The staff were all so friendly and attentive, if there was an accomi"
