Had a lovely holiday, we stayed in the apartment 1-4c turtle towers the apartment for suitable for the five of us. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms,a very good size living room with sofa bed kitchen with washing machine and dryer and the use of a microwave which came in very useful. On the negatvie side, there were lots of small red ants but after a while you get used to them. Mrs Campbell the apartment cleaner was not very helpful and found that her cleaning methods were not up to standard. It took over 48hours to change a blown light bulb in the bathroom.
During the three weeks period she only changed our bed once, we had to wash and change the linen ourself, as well as our own cleaning. There was no point using Mrs Campbell, we decided to our own cleaning. Security was tight and we appreciated that all visitors to the complex was vetted and could not enter without checks being carried out. what was also nice is that you could have visitors, as at some resorts visitors are not allowed. Would i stay there again the answer would be yes. As the apartment was good value and situated in a good location minutes away from the beach, clubs and main street of Ochi.

My wife and I wed in Montego Bay and then spent a week in Ocho Rios, staying in this flat. We both highly recommend - the flat is near to everything you will want to do and if you wanted to go anywhere not within walking distance, transport/taxis are very easy to arrange (there are always several drivers right outside the complex).

All of the people working at the complex are very nice, and the beach is literally a 1 minute walk away - there is also a shopping complex across the road and Dunns River Falls is a 5 minute drive away.

The apartment is very nice and clean, and for all those couples who hate the '2 single beds tied together' trend of vacation homes/hotels, you'll be pleased to hear that there is a true king size bed in the bedroom (and the mirror on the ceiling was highly appreciated lol). The housekeeper Annette is also very nice.

We had the honeymoon of a lifetime and again would highly recommend.

I have been staying at TBT for the past 10 years. The staff there treat everyone with respect and are extremely helpful. They all know me and my children and treat us like family. Ms. Stephanie is the BEST! She has checked for me and my children for years making sure we were comfortable at all times. My extended family just loves her. I tell everyone to stay here because TBT can afford you the total Jamaican experience. Who wants to stay inclusive and only see the resort. The real fun is on the outside. Meeting the natives, walking around, trying authentic food, catching the taxi, seeing Dunn's River Falls, taking a ride through Fern Gully, riding through Blue Mountain, horse riding in Chukka Cove.....need I say more. Then coming home to your condo, taking a long hot shower and resting up for the night life. Margaritaville is across the street and if your lucky you can enjoy the music from your balcony and have your own little party inside. If you on the beachside you can enjoy the beautiful sunsets over the water while listening to the waves splashing on the beach. Heavenly! So to all the people who leave negative comments perhaps you should stay up the road at one of the inclusives and get exactly what you pay for .....

I have actually stayed at Turtle Beach Towers 3 times now. October of 2006, 2008, and 2009. We plan to go back in 2011 as well. I go with a team of 13-20 people for mission work in Bamboo/St. Ann's Bay area. So, our experience is quite different. Overall though, our experience has been good. The first 2 years, i stayed in a one bedroom with people fromthe team, this year i stayed in one of their 2 bedroom accommodations with 5 other people. Nice hotel overall. Nice pool, but we only got to use at night. Access to the beach till 6PM.

The first year, a couple of team members found a roach on the last day, but nothing bad. The second year, one room didn't have an AC that worked well, and the third year, we lost electric for a night, but overall we have had great experience. And it can sometimes be hard to sleep because of the music in one of the party areas, but not bad. Mainly weekends.

Tip: The Elevator gives a limit of guests and weight: FOLLOW it. I don't suggest more than 5 adults. The elevator says 6-8 people, and we put 10 people in it, and it gut stuck. Emergency button was a dummy button, and no one answered our call, but we were able to get ourselves out. Just follow the rules.

Not to far away, there is Dunn's River Falls, Dolphin Cove, Rainforest, Mystic Mountain, Restaurants, and shopping areas.
