I was here 3 years ago and since then, more rooms were added, the food is superb, the staff is very friendly and helpful. It is a safe and well lit environment. Close to other establishments where you can find music, liquor and other restaurants up and down the beach. The beach is one of the best ever, lovely white... more

We booked one of the 4 beach front rooms in February of 2008 in person with the owner Delores for March, 2009; in December I confirmed my booking via email and reconfirmed it in a telephone conversation with Delores 2 weeks before we were to arrive, each time I was told every thing was fine. When we arrived we were... more

An affordable place on the beach. Great location! A friendly locally owned inn smack in the middle of 7 mile beach. No bells & whistles. Clean and safe. Hot showers if you catch it right. Steps from the water. Available beach chairs. What more could you want? more

I couldn't disagree more with macquechoux's review. I was quite surprised. I have to believe that there was some miscommunication somewhere that lead to the unfortunate situation that macquechoux experienced. This was my family's first time staying with Delores and her family at Donaldson's and it won't be our last. We were recommended by some friends who have stayed at... more

I have been traveling to Negril for 30 years now and my experience with booking a beach front room with Delores O'Connor, Manager of Donaldson's Inn was the sort of thing that makes you want to write off bothering to do business with small local Jamaican inn keepers. In recent years I have stayed at Tree House, Rainbow Arch, Country... more

My son and I visited Donaldson's for spring break. We had a great time and appreciated Delly's hospitality. The whole staff was friendly and accomodating. The restaurant at the Inn served delicious Jamaican cuisine made to order. The convenience of staying on the beach was also attractive. I would recommend the Donaldson's Inn to anyone planning on visiting Negril. Thanks... more

Stayed at Donaldson's Inn for the fourth time. As always it was a perfect vacation. Made many new friends there. Its right on the beach and everything you need is only a few steps away. we pay much less than an A.I. and I think we have a better time. People from the A.I.'s come to visit us and it... more

I have stayed with the Donaldson's for many years and cannot think of anywhere else I'd rather stay while in Negril. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff is like family and they really take care of their guests. The yard is beautiful! You are within walking distance to several wonderful restaurants. Like me, you might not want to... more

I will start my review by saying that I have stayed here numerous times since 1992 and have watched Negril change over the years. Donaldson's Inn is a second generation family owned resort that is not an all inclusive but offers in my opinion a wonderful Jamaican experience. Those that choose the AI vacation and stay at their resort don't... more
