"The dining and bar staff were great. The front desk staff was poor. I booked a oceanfront room but then charged me $400 extra for a ground floor. Entertainment was not good like it used to be. I got sick from the room service and the front desk did not even apologize for it. Not sure if we will be back."
"I found this hotel to be perfect for what i was looking. Right in the beach, small, helpful staff.
Room was cleaned and towels changed everyday.
I will stay here again!"
Azul Beach Resort Negril, Gourmet All Inclusive by Karisma
8/10 Good
"Overall, I had a good experience, but there are important things people should know before booking.
The front desk staff were extremely helpful, and the beach water was very clear and beautiful. The food was also great, although eating similar foods every day became repetitive.
One disappointment was the weather. There were afternoon showers almost every day, which affected the vibe and sunset views. One reason I booked Jamaica was for the sunsets, so that was unfortunate.
Another thing to be aware of is the beach vendors. Do not feel pressured to buy things because they will continue approaching you if you entertain them. The bracelet vendors especially will try to sell souvenir bracelets for around $10–15. I understand the resort cannot control this since they are independent vendors, but guests should still be aware.
I also noticed tipping culture is very strong here, and service definitely felt better when tips were involved. Staff also constantly promoted spa specials or meetings offering “free massages,” which became draining after a while.
The resort seemed to cater more toward couples, older guests, families, and drinking culture rather than younger people looking for nightlife. Canoeing was fun, but entertainment overall could improve.
There was also a smell in the bathroom during the stay. The deposit was $200 by card or $100 cash. Overall, I’m glad I experienced it for myself because reviews vary depending on the person."

10/10 Excellent
"We loved having the best of both worlds. We were staying in the jungle, but right across the street was the beach. The staff was amazing always, we loved it there. We definitely will be going back. You cannot go wrong. Staying at sunset at the Palms."
"the staff was polite. but there is no elevator. and the rooms are far from the main resort area. it was a decent property. but wouldn’t stay here again."
"The staff is absolutely fantastic!! Melissa, Jennifer, and Katie made us feel like family!
The food wasn’t the best. But the staff makes up for it!
We will definitely return.
We just had an absolutely amazing time."
