Robins Bay Vacation Rentals

"Shirley Retreat Hotel was super clean and accommodating. My son and I was able to rest good the beds slept well and the rooms are super spacious. We were there for a tennis tournament and it is positioned near some good restaurants within walking distance. I would definitely rebook upon my return."

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

"On Travelocity website stated, dining areas, that is untrue. Breakfast is delivered to your room. Room and bathroom very clean, sheets smells heavily of bleach. But clean. The driver from destination service for transfers was soooo arrogant, he was driving like 100 miles per hour. He broke my suitcase, and lied about it. Destination services for transport i would try to avoid them. Not helpful at the airport, they add on more anxiety to traveling, . "

"Awesome place "

"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"

"The rooms are clean. Staff is excellent and responsive. Storage space is sparse and draws are small. Colonial style rooms are quaint but dated. Landscaping is beautiful and well maintained. Beach view is exceptional. Pricing for stay and dining is pricey. Overall the property is wonderful and inviting."

"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"
