Jamaica Grandiosa Resort, Montego Bay

One guy is the cashier, cook, manager, housekeeper, waiter,etc. This place is in a rough location blocks away from the beach. Not even close to the beach. You really don't want to go to the beach anywhere near the city or airport anyway. Bugs and lizards in the room, no air conditioning, one iron for the whole hotel. Very limited food choices. Breakfast is last nights dinner, etc... The place is a dump.

The staff is great, but as of June '09 it has been sold to another owner. We'll see if the new owner keeps the great staff and service. THE PICTURES OF THE GRANDIOSA ARE FALSE. There is a pool that was installed in '08, but not the one shown. The rooms are nice especially for the poor living conditions that most jamaican's live in. The food is excellent: try the ital and rasta food. TAKE COMFORT THAT YOUR MONEY GOES TO A JAMAICAN, NOT A FOREIGN MULTINATIONAL COMPANY LIKE ALL THE REST ON THE STRIP! BASED ON THAT, THE GRANDIOSA IS WORTH EVERY PENNY.

this run of the house establishment is definitely not run of the mill. this place is definitely a diamond in the rough...and the attendants all made you feel like royalty...they really went out of their way to make our stay most definitely a beautiful memory...even making special dishes just for us...the room was enormous and airy...and the scenery ,looking out over the hills at the ocean, while dining on the restaurant's deck ,was breath taking. You could see the planes come in over the waters and i can still hear the reggae music quietly playing in the background...
