Excellent for a family or quiet get away. Food is delicious, property is walkable with plenty of activities to do or not. 😆 The snorkeling a is fantastic as is the ride on the glass bottom boat. Guests are like family most people we met have come here for at minimum 5-20 years. Lots of repeat customers speaks for itself.

Beautiful grounds, amazing nanny service. The place was not busy the first few days of our stay and services and entertainment were lacking as a result, which we were not informed of prior to our stay. Also the Internet service was terrible.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel has a beautiful architecture, the rooms are spacious and have very comfortable beds! The food is awesome, authentic jamaican cuisine. I loved my gin and tonics. The stay includes a lot of fun and entertaining activities, like boat rides, snorkeling an fishing. All the staff is attentive and eager to assist you. I was traveling on my own and felt safe during my whole stay. Perhaps the property needs a little bit of fixing but all around I rather stay here than at a big chain hotel

Worked wonderfully for us
As a family with two young kids, we were delighted by our experience. It may not be for everyone - this is not the same as an experience at a large all-inclusive resort. Things are a little more relaxed and unpredictable, in terms of precisely which services will be available when, etc. But I felt like both us and the kids got so much more out of it. FDR has a lot going for it: unusually spacious (double) rooms inside non-generic little Spanish-style buildings; access to a beautiful neighbouring beach (alongside its small one); a waterslide where kids (and possibly adults) will happily spend hours; free boat rides; pretty tasty a la carte meals; a location near lots of good day-trip options. But its charm is particularly a credit to its staff - not just the nannies, who may be a main selling point, but also the wonderfully warm folks around the resort, like the lifeguard who taught our 7-year-old how to snorkel, the boat captain who took us out to fish one morning, and the restaurant and bar staff we felt like we knew by the second time they served us. Possibly helped by its Jamaican ownership, it feels way less impersonal than any resort I've been to previously. All this to say, we left with a lot of warm feelings and are eager to return.

This is definitely a family-oriented resort, esp for young children. Good food & drink, lots of fresh seafood & Jamaican fare. Staff is attentive and helpful. Liked that it is a smaller place; not large place with loud crowds. Enjoyed the activities incl. beach volleyball, glass bottom boat, beach access, ocean kayak, fresh water pool, sun loungers. Front office arranged safe & excellent quality transportation to Dunn's River Falls. Only downside was that wifi signal not strong and drops frequently. Overall, an excellent stay.
