No Frills, but VERY clean and absolutely the best place to stay in Negril! It’s quiet, there are resident cats, lots of privacy, trees growing bananas & coconuts in the courtyard and we were able to take the free shuttle to the sister resort to spend time on the beach. We preferred to stay right in the Samsara mostly during our stay though and we hired private taxis to go to other places like the blue hole, YS Falls and Dunns River. Towels and basic bedding is supplied at the samsara, but you need to bring your own shampoo:). The food in the restaurant is excellent and the staff is very kind. Don’t forget to tip well!!

Great Stay

Pros: beautiful stone work all over Beautiful pool overlooking the cliffs off the carribean sea. Hotel is at a curve in the road so there is always a security or staff member outside to help with crossing the street or parking - which was very helpful for us. Rooms clean and AC air wt Sea view Food excellent. Homemade style Staff are super friendly, kind and very nice. Front desk staff was so welcoming and always greeted us with smiles. Staff with impeccable service was Patricia and Kimiko in the dining room and Dorothy (dinnertime chef) AND Marcia and Tina in the bar. They were absolutely amazing in the service. The hotel does have a second building which looks very upgraded. Not sure if they are suites or just diff type of rooms. We were in a king size room. Cons: The outside of the hotel needs maintenance and lots of upgrades. Cob webs are low hanging and get in your hair quite a few times When walking around the grounds. Because the hotel is located on the cliffs there is no sand n beach. However, their sister hotel (5 mins drive - Legends) - is located on Seven Mile white sandy beach) -- The hotel also has installed steps and ladders for you to jump in the ocean. Keep in mind that it's in the very deep end of the ocean so must be a strong swimmer. There are a lot of stairs throughout the hotel to go from the front desk to the rooms, down to the pool and up the stairs to the restaurant. Definitely not wheelchair friendly or for those with limited mobility.

If you need a big fancy “secret” style resort, then this place is not for you -we like the smaller boutique style resort and this place was perfect for us. The staff was amazing and paid special attention to every need. Tina, Patricia, chef Georgia and Kimeiko as well as the grounds keeper(didn’t get his name) all went above and beyond. By the time you leave this beautiful place you will be hugging them goodbye. If you’re fortunate enough to go on vacation, please show these people respect and give them a gratuity, they deserve it.

The cliff, pool, sunset balcony view from my room and overall property grounds were beautiful. The staff were down to earth and friendly. The food was ok, but theres is also a very spicy, but good jerk chicken restaurant around the corner and a decent grocery store not too far away. My favorite part of my stay was the spectacular pruvate beach 12 mintues away which the resort offered a complimentary shuttle. Bed was comfortable but bathroom was not clean. Besides the lack of security, I had an overall relaxing stay.

Samsara staff were exceptional Home style meals were very plentiful and delicious. The only thing we didn’t like was that my wife, who has a walking disability, found it hard to get around The resort is beautiful but built with slopes and ramps, but that was on us for not looking into these conditions beforehand
