Rating8.1Adults OnlyActivity program covers the standard all-inclusive range with some Jamaica-specific elements. Bloody Bay Beach is one of the better snorkeling access points in Negril — the water is clear and the reef accessible from shore. Non-motorized water sports are included. Beach vendors will approach — this is consistent at Negril beaches regardless of resort.
Central pool, largest on property. The animation hub. Most activity and noise during organized hours.
A quieter pool zone with an adjacent jacuzzi. Less competitive for sun loungers than the main pool.
The quietest of the three general pools. Good option for guests who want to swim without organized activity.
18+ only with swim-up bar service. The Rastaman swim-up bar is here. The calmest adult pool zone on the property.
Dedicated children's zone. Slides and shallow depth. Adjacent to the family-oriented pool areas.
One of Jamaica's genuinely good swimming beaches — calm, clear turquoise water with white sand. Positioned north of the Seven Mile Beach stretch, which gives it slightly less tourist congestion than the main Negril strip. The water is reliably swimmable. Beach vendors approach resort guests here as they do throughout Negril — this is standard in Jamaica and not specific to this resort. Snorkeling directly off the beach is worthwhile — the water clarity is consistently mentioned in reviews. Loungers and umbrellas included. Non-motorized water sports launch from the beach.
Primary pool for general swimming. Animation team activities during organized hours.
Pool with an adjoining jacuzzi. A quieter zone than the main activity pool.
