If you are used to staying at quality resorts (think Marriott, Westin, even Holiday Inn is better) then please do not stay here. I don't know where to begin with the level of disrespect and unprofessionalism that the staff here represents. I agree with all of the previous posts before mine because we were all there to celebrate a wedding.... more

So yes the previous two reviews are correct, you have to flush the toilet like 4 times to build up enough water for it to flush, the maid turns off your ac when they clean the room, the mosiquitos were CRAZY even after the sprayed my room and I had a recurring ant colony living in my closet, I hope... more

Thanks very much for your comments; I regret that your stay with us did not meet your expectations. It is our aim to resolve any issues a guest has with their room and I am sorry to learn that the water pressure was low. I’m not sure why that happened but will discuss it with our maintenance staff. We do...

Where can I begin!!! I must say I'm well travelled and this has been the worst trip I have ever had. The resort is run down and needs a massive overhaul. The staff were rude and very uncooperative. The rooms were closet size and hot most of the time. To add insult to injury if they maid cleaned your room... more

I really don't know where to begin. I stayed at JBR this month for a friend's wedding. When I was shown into my room, I thought I was being punk'd. The rooms are so outdated it is ridiculous. The AC barely worked, the safe was rusted, the toilet needed to be pumped at least 4 or 5 times before it... more

We were put here for a conference...but it is not at all what we expected. Little information about anything outside the resort. No concierge to help with reservations. Standard rooms are so small. You cannot take food out of the restaurant if you would like to enjoy some fruit on the beach or in your room in the AM. Quite... more

Just spent a week at the Jolly Beach Resort and we were very disappointed. The hotel is old and in need of repairs. That I could deal with. I knew we were staying in a 3 star rating. I would say the worst part was the food. Absolutely terrible. At the buffett, you had 2 choices of entrees and they... more

The place was neat, clean and well kept. It offered the right service for the right price, all food was included, the room that I got was nice enough and all the ammenities worked; although all of my colleagues did not have the same experience with their rooms. The staff was friendly and mostly accomodating. The beach was the best... more

What can I say, we travelled to Jolly Beach resort on the 9th July 2009 for my sister's wedding. We stayed for 2 weeks. It is a basic hotel but the staff, food, drinks, pools are excellent. The hotel is very clean, housekeeping every day, again the housekeepers were lovely. We had a 17, 15, 14 and 10 year old... more

The location and overall appearance of the resort was good. The service was absolutely awful. The front desk staff was rude and uncooperative. The rooms were hot and meal options were limited. The resort had 3 restaurants with two of them opening for dinner on alternating nights. There was no food available after 10pm. No liquor was served before 11am.... more
