Located a little way outside Ocho Rios, but a route taxi is pretty cheap to get to places (just make it clear you don't want a private charter or the prices skyrocket). The breakfast is very filling, the pool was fun and had pool toys, although the hot tub didn't always heat, there is a restaurant, fruit stand, paid laundry service, water refill shop, and two corner grocery stores just beside the property. Some are closed on Saturday and everything on Sunday though.

Verified review

4/10 Fair

Without going into too much details, I would not recommend anyone stay at this place! The only reason this place gets two stars and not zero is, it's location, breakfast was decent most morning and the security guards (who were more present than anyone else) were very good. Mr green, Mr Jackson and Mr Brooks should be commended. Miss Meeks in the office is very apologetic but not at all helpful. Another tidbit that my interest potential future guess. 5-day stay no housekeeping in those 5 days, even though it was request and I was promised it would "definitely" happen.

Sea Shell Palms is an amazing stay for an amazing value! I hope the quality and affordability never change. Security Green was excellent with our check in and check out process. The guards and maintenance workers were also helpful, even helped us jump start our car. The free morning breakfast was icing on the cake! Hot and fresh every morning and AUTHENTIC JAMAICAN FOOD! The property includes a beautiful pool, unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to try it out, definitely next time. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a budget friendly, clean, and peaceful place to escape the busy streets of Ochi!
