Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa

Montego Bay, Jamaica

Virgin rating

The hotel

Lying on a beautiful, long stretch of private beach, the Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa sits within 400 lush acres and is home to an 18th-century sugar plantation. A popular feature here is the iconic swimming pool but guests (kids' especially) also love the Sugar Mill Falls Waterpark, which is the largest in Jamaica. Why not grab a tube and float down the ‘lazy river’ or try one of the slides. There’s also a daily kids' club, leaving you with time to recharge in the full-service spa, or why not try out the Championship golf course. A variety of restaurant options with fine dining and sophisticated wine lists are on-site, with the newly renovated Rum Factory a particular hit, as is the Three Palms, overlooking the beautifully landscaped golf course.

The negative reviews had me worried but it wasn't the case after I arrived. The staff at the resort is world class and help make the experience! From the cleaning staff to the bartenders, everyone was welcoming and will help. There was a group of 28 of us and we all enjoyed ourselves. This is not a big resort but what it lacks in size it makes up with activities. Multiple activities being led by staff daily, a water park and several beaches to lay in the sun or enjoy the ocean. Get in the lazy river if you can!! The jerk hut by the beach is a must. I spent 4 out of 7 lunches there, also the pizzeria is top notch! The buffet is smaller than what I was used to but all the food was delicious. My favorite a la carte was the Italian themed. I was surprised by the alcohol selection!! I was expecting no name scotch and gin but they were serving Johnny Walker Black and Tanqueray. The red stripe beer and pina coladas were also refreshing! The rooms were small and dated but the maid kept it spotless and was very friendly. Finding Bob Marley was easy and as long as you were not smoking around others, there were no problems. We went golfing at Cinnamon Hill and it was an experience of a lifetime. I would highly recommend anyone who enjoys golf to play a round there!! I wouldn't recommend this resort for solo travelers or individuals looking for an adults only experience. If you have kids, it is a great resort. The water park is a fun way to spend an afternoon. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a fun family friendly resort!! Read less

We really enjoyed our stay at the resort. From the time we stepped on the grounds everyone was so kind and attentive to our needs. The staff was very informative, and were available to assist with any concerns. I am not a buffet person but I must say Fresh had the best food.

We had a beautiful view of the ocean. We were on the 7th floor. The bed was a little hard for me but not bad. The staff was very attentive. James Hibbert, head of security is the best.

We had a beautiful view of the ocean. We were on the 7th floor. The bed was a little hard for me but not bad. The staff was very attentive. James Hibbert, head of security is the best. He called the room and introduced himself and said that he was our POC for any needs/concerns at the resort. If we had any problems or concerns, he'd look into it. He certainly delivered. He coordinated us reservations to some restaurants because we weren't having any luck. When we arrived the shower pressure wasn't that good so we called it in. Brandon, one of the maintenance staff, came up and replaced our shower head and added a washer to the faucet. Patrine was one of the people that serviced our room. She did a phenomenal job. We always came back to the room to find fresh towels, room cleaned and beds made. I can't think of the other young lady that took care of our room. Andrea, one of the servers always wore a beautiful smile while attending to us on the beach. She always took care of us in a cheerful manner and such a radiant smile. I really the nightly entertainment. I enjoyed the silent music night. The food was great nightly. I enjoyed all of the restaurants and the buffet. Berton, at the pool, was also helpful. I lost my Ray-ban sunglasses at the lazy river and he got in the pool and helped me look for them. We didn't find them but I was so touched that he'd go that extra mile to help. I can't recall the gentleman that took me on my first single hand catamaran. I had a great time. I enjoyed the beachside massage. I certainly recommend this resort. Read less

I was quite concerned about coming here after reading the two previous months reviews. Service was excellent. O’Neil the fitness director was the best. Botanists from the Hilton diamond desk was a big help. A couple entrees. From the restaurants were below par but when we told our server they were quick to get us something else.

I was quite concerned about coming here after reading the two previous months reviews. Service was excellent. O’Neil the fitness director was the best. Botanists from the Hilton diamond desk was a big help. A couple entrees. From the restaurants were below par but when we told our server they were quick to get us something else. The reservation system buying wine to reserve sucked. $42 for a crappy bottle that you could get at total wine for $7 was bad. We only did that once. We usually got a reservation by standing in line for 15 minutes. If the wait is going to be longer they will give you a pager. It really only deserves 4.5 stars but the kind people that work here made me feel generous Read less
