Our 6th visit to Club Ambiance and it is still as wonderful as the first! I was worried heading down this year as I heard the new owners were not taking care of the place like they should. I can tell you the place is still magnificent! How can you go wrong when you have the amazing staff that CA has! As long as those people are still there we will continue to go back year after year.

This year our group had a wedding, and Jasmine the wedding coordinator did an amazing and beautiful job! What a stress free way to do a wedding! Plus a lot of the staff were in attendance along with Gilbert the manager, who made a beautiful toast!

Part of our group stays in the villa every year, and I can reconfirm this is the way to go if you have a large group! Your own private pool, private beach, plus a fully stocked fridge with beer, juice, and water! A computer with the internet for your own personal use. The villa staff is beyond amazing from Tony to Dean the housekeeper they keep us very comfortable. Plus you still have the all inclusive resort!

From all the old friends that we met up with to all the first timers at CA, I did not hear one person say they would not be back! This resort is how you want to make it, you can enjoy just being alone and enjoying the sand and sun, or you can make new friends and have some fun! This is the friendliest resort I have ever been to! It is not uptight, it is a cozy comfortable setting. I know that repeaters say over and over it is like going back home. One of the reasons is how many resorts do you go to that the staff and management are outside waving you goodbye as you leave on your bus?

If you decide to book this resort, please keep in mind it is a small 3 star resort. You have man-made beaches, that are cleaned daily, you have a cothing optional beach if that is your thing, you have 1 buffet for your breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with a grill that goes all afternoon with chicken wraps, burgers, hot dogs, and grilled sandwiches. I have never went a day being hungry, I always find a great selection of food to choose from. Plus they have the surf & turf you can make reservations for $20 pp. This is way worth the money, it is a 5 course meal and the lobster and steak are magnificent! Richard the head of the dining room will make it most memorable for you!

Your bar selection is not top shelf, but I guarantee you the bartenders will mix you up some great drinks! You have the coconut bar, the pool bar, the Legends Bar, and the disco at night! Plus you have some wonderful entertainment every day and night! The entertainment crew headed up by Damian is top notch, they enjoy having fun and they keep things going throughout the day and night!

I would love to thank everyone that makes our stay so great, but there is not one staff member that doesn't work hard and make it a memorable vacation again and again! So, I will say thank you again to Loraine and Gilbert for being such wonderful hosts to our group! Our countdown has started for next year!

If you like authentic, real island experiences and not large complexes, high rises or carnival type adventures then you will love Club Ambiance. This small, adults only, hotel is a true Jamaican gem where the staff is real hospitality, genuinely caring, fun and yet very professional. The food is good Jamaican food (tasty, plentiful, and varied), not fine dining brought in from the states. If you want entertainment or a quiet spot to sun/read/meditate Club Ambiance has it. There is no long beach to walk/explore, just a magnificent view of the ocean waters slapping quietly on the rocks.

This was our second stay at Club Ambiance, we returned because of the wonderful staff, the eclectic international adults we met, and for the rest we needed after a full year of running our own business.

Club Ambiance is not pretentious or stuffy – it feels like going to grandma’s house where you are hugged, fed, and made to feel you are the most special grandchild.

Every staff member from grounds keeper to front desk to security guards were welcoming and helpful – a special shout out to Gilbert, Sharon, Vinet, Sonalee, Martino, Omar, Phillip, Melanie and Barney....see you next year!

Travelled to Club Ambience with my wife in late January, 2012. The hotel is out of date as has been mentioned, but it is well maintained and kept clean. It does not take long to feel at home here and by the end of day one we felt very comfortable.
The food was very good and plentiful, maybe without the variety you'd have at a five star hotel but you will always be able to find something very good to eat at each meal. The wait staff was also very good and a tip will ensure great service over your visit. My wife mentioned that the snacks available in the afternoon and at 11 p.m. could have been a bit more varied. They were good though -- essentially burgers available in the afternoon and something like pizza or fried chicken at nightime. While what was provided was good, she hoped for a bit lighter snack food.
The entertainment was fun, engaging, and quite varied. There was lots to do but if you simply want to do your own thing staff will leave you to it.
Legends Bar, which is in the form of a little dock going out into the sea was great. It is a reggae bar that plays Bob Marley all the time. Very relaxed and fun.
The waterfront is rocky and broken up so the beach itself is limited. There are always secluded places to lounge, however. The pool area is also nice. There is a very nice nearby public beach called Flavours that can be visited from the resort on a daily 4 p.m. bike tour. We walked there once and it took about 30 minutes at a brisk pace each way. Club Ambience is not a resort for those looking for an idylic beach experience.
We used the wake up call service four times. It served us three times very well. We recommend you bring an alarm just to be on the safe side.
The hotel never seemed too crowded: bar, pool, beach, dining room, games room, there was aalways plenty of space which we enjoyed.
Keeping in mind this is a three star and not a five star hotel this is an excellent value. Service was always good and the staff friendly. We recommend this hotel strongly. It was a lot of fun.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for 1 week, did not want to leave. Staff were amazingly accommodating and great to be around. The food was excellent with great varieties every night was something different. The building was dated but clean. My only complaint was that the pool was a little dirty during our stay. Highly recommend if you want to have a great time!
