You get what you pay for. I found a great deal for the hotel, I am not a picky person but I have some standards. When I checked in my room was not ready so they put in a room with 3 beds and said they would move me in a couple day, well I unpacked thinking that. The very next day I moved, well the room they put me in had problems, the cable did not work, my bathroom window did not have curtains, and the shower head did not work. The security was good but being a woman they hit on me all day and called all during the night. The food selection sucked, for dinner I only had a choice between chicken, curry goat, or fish and they ran out of food frequently. Some of the staff was nice. I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK THERE EVER.

“Charming and friendly!!!”

5/5 found this review helpful

The Jamaica Grandiosa is an awesome place to stay if you enter without any marvelous expectations. It is definitely not an upscale hotel, but it makes up for that with its magnificent charm. All of the staff are extremely chill, and I found myself making friends with them almost immediately. I woulden't recommend this hotel for people who are traveling to JA as a beach/resort type place. But for those who are looking to explore JA on a more realistic and personal level, this is a great venue to base your travels. Just be humble, and go with the flow, and hopefully you will fall in love with Jamaica and the Jamciaca Grandiosa Hotel as deeply as I did. Take care, and enjoy it!

“good hotel bad location”

Okay for what we paid for it. The hotel was quiet but the hot water didn't work toward the last days of my trip. The shuttle was only until 4:00 and the taxi rides became expensive. but other than that the trip was fun and the room was spacious.

“Great place to Get away”

7/8 found this review helpful

This is a terrific place for people who need a hide away for a weekend or " Need some privacy" the services might not be extremely fantastic but the room i stayed in was in excellent condition facing the beach and the beautiful sunset.

its nice for friend who like to hang out and chill. They serve very nice Jamaican meals and their staff are very friendly and considerate.

I think this resort is not for the so sophisticated people but for those who wish to unleash and unwind in a casual atmosphere with NO DISTURBANCE.

I enjoyed my stay and will be planning to visit Ja. Grandiosa sometime in December. I just want to say to those who place their add about how disgusting this place is that they just pay for what is offered.

If they need Terrific services all they need to do is book in The Ritz Carlton or Riu Tropical where everything is everything.

Stay Cool. Irie Jamaica

“Great Rate and pleasant service”

The Jamaica Grandiosa Resort

3/3 found this review helpful

My significant other and I stayed at the resort from August 28 - Sept 8, 2003, (11 days). The resort it self provided modest room accomadations, which included air conditioning, hot water, cable television, and optional view of the garden or ocean. Also, rental car service was available at a moderate price.We loved the atmosphere and persons who provided exceptional service. The resort is about five minutes car ride from the beach, hip-strip and heart of the city. It is not advised that person's try to walk to town, unless they enjoy walking, and don't mind the traffic passing by.This resort is definitely for persons who want a quiet getaway with a loved one. The resort does not provide any live entertainment, but there is a bar, dining room and swimming pool on the premises. Prices for alcoholic beverages are resonable. It is strongly advised that currency is exchanged to Jamaican Dollars to eliminate tourists being taken advantage of. ( A great currency exchanger is the "Central Cambio" which is located various places in town. Remember, persons providing services in Jamaica, especially, to tourist, are trying to make a profit, and the Foreign currency is attractive and a tourist could be considered a target.Renting a car and exploring Jamaica is key. Don't lock yourself in your room, or be content with being at an all inclusive compound hotel. If you go to Jamaica, get the "real Jamaica, " that which engulfs the people in the surrounding towns and food shops. Be Jamaican for your vacation, you won't regret it.If this sounds attractive, visit the Jamaica Grandiosa Resort for Great Rates and Pleasant Service.Sincerely,All American in Bronx, New York
