Amazing hotel! While the hotel may not be new, I found the rooms and grounds to be very clean and well maintained. The staff is warm, inviting, and invested in your stay. The food was also excellent. I felt like I was eating at someone’s home. Snorkeling is also super fun given the unique location and easy access to the water.

Wonderful small resort with fantastic food and the best employees. We loved the combination of tranquility and best ocean views (above and below the water). A huge plus is that nobody tries to push any services.

I’ve traveled to dozens of countries and stayed in various types of properties and I can honestly say this is one of the most superior and definitely the most unique. The Service level was unparalleled, the food was delicious, it was quiet and personal, but still fun and able to engage the staff and fellow guests. It’s clear the staff loves what they do and takes pride. We had the birdsnest cottage and it was fantastic and magical. Pretty much any request you make they will do everything they can to honor it. Looking forward to going back as soon as possible!

This was one of the best and unique resort experiences I’ve ever had - the geological caves on which the hotel is built are fascinating and impossible to replicate - it’s intimate and staff are attentive and personable - the value for our all-inclusive stay was very good - whilst deliberately rustic and understated, rooms may need some refreshes eventually and a small gym would be a great addition

Perfect private getaway

My fiance and I spent 5 restful nights at The Caves over Christmas and cannot wait to return. My third time to Negril and his first, we were both impressed at the quality across the board. The service is outstanding and the staff are so friendly and considerate. We loved how private our trip felt and had so much fun jumping, snorkeling, kayaking and lounging by the sea. Every meal was delicious and we definitely recommend the private cave dinner and massages. 10/10 would recommend, will return.

Disliked: Amenities
Staff was fantastic... Truly accommodating and professional and kind. But the rooms need work for this price..... No screens so all shutters must be closed shut if you want to wake up to light in the morning. And to call this all inclusive is misleading....only can access adequate food during meal hours and there was almost never a bartender present through the day.....we were told to make ourselves drinks behind the bar.

Beautiful hotel, unique and quiet. The food was good, but it was unclear until day 5 we could ask for specific meals. The thing I liked least was that the website said taht ANY BOOKINGS made through 12/22 would received afree private dining experience in the cave, but they cgarged us $150 dollars anyway.

This hotel was on our radar for years. We finally made it happen and honestly, we did have sort of high expectations because of the reviews and pictures. I can say without hesitation The Caves exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere and location is even more beautiful and romantic than we could have hoped for. The staff were amazing and the food was the real highlight. Each meal was excellent and the dinners were exceptional. I can not more highly recommend this hotel if you are going to Jamaica and looking for a special getaway with a partner.

Imagine staying in a tree house (not actually) on a beautiful cliff overlooking the blue ocean surrounded by friendly people and that’s the best I can describe it. We’ve been multiple times and loved each time. All the guests seem to love it too. It’s a relatively quiet chill place. Many catamaran excursions go to the area off the coast because it’s so amazing. Getting there is interesting as it’s in the West End of Negril about 1.5-2hr from MBJ airport. We’ve taken the small plane, car transfer, and rental and each has pros/cons. The plane is best and most expensive ~350-400/pp, the private transfer is ~200-500/couple, the rental car is ~70/day but the most stressful for some not used to dodging potholes, people, animals, bikes, cars all sharing your lane while driving on the British side of the road. Beware many credit card rental car insurances exclude Jamaica.
