10/10 Exceptional

Treated like we are family!

We had the best time at Waters Edge! Jay and Win are the best hosts and we couldn't help but make permanent friends with them - they treated us like family. Jay had fresh fruit and breakfasts ready for us every morning. We hope to come back to Jamaica and see our friends at Water's Edge. Joe and Laura

The peace of mind and tranquility, the airiness of the bedroom, high ceilings and majestic windows, courteousness of the staff.this will be my vacation stay whenever I return to jamaica.i already told some of my coworkers about water's edge and showed them pictures.Excellent guest house
Derrick, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I enjoyed the quiet area, a car is a must. The owner Peter looked after us personally and has a driver Robert. Our room was beautiful with full view of ocean. It was very reasonable compared to hotels.
Linda, 7-night trip

This is a beautiful place right on the water. The staff is excellent. They even cooked a personalized breakfast for us. The manager was very accommodating and made sure we had arrangements for transportation. Would definitely recommend this property to anybody visiting Jamaica

My experience was great. Staff friendly and easy to relate to. Room was clean, atmosphere was welcoming.

8/10 Very good

Very nice hotel to stay at with a friendly owner. My wife and I had a very nice time. The owner was very helpful and went far and beyond to make our state pleasant. The only thing is the hotel needs more snacks. A vending machine with lots of snacks would be ideal.

10/10 Exceptional

I must say that: the ambiance was spectacular! Also, the surroundings were filled with tranquility. It was the perfect place to be if you wanted to just sit back and ease your mind. The staff was always welcoming. They did their best to ensure that my needs were met. Most importantly, i felt safe during my stay.

Peace & Tranquility

I had a wonderful time, from start to finish I was welcomed with pure hospitality. I am grateful for this stay from the amazing breakfast to the gorgeous views. All my events were conveniently close and I felt safe and blessed to have met such amazing people. Whenever I visit Jamaica I will stay here with no doubt. Much Love Dr. Liz

I loved everything about staying at this property! Most importantly Jay was impressive! She was attentive, friendly and very professional! I’d stay there again as a result of how she treated my partner and I. She made the experience worthwhile! I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone who favors hospitality! Keep it up guys and thank you again!
Janelle, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was amazing. This is not your fancy all inclusive hotels. This place is more like visiting the family that you love to be around. The hospitality was A1. To look out of any window or door and get an amazing view of the ocean was very relaxing for me. It is the break away from reality that you need to reset your mind, total relaxation there. No pressure and the staff was always willing to help.

Needs fixing up

Hotel did not seem fully ready yet for guests. The shower in my room did not work. Things seemed like they were still doing work to fix the place up. The location is fairly remote, from Montego Bay.
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

At first I was pissed off per photos and reality. Once reality kicked in I enjoyed Peter and Jay, great hospitality and amazing people! Peter and Jay made us feel like family. Jay thought me recipes and techniques to bring back to the states to share with my family. I actually plan on going back next year with my whole family and renting out most of the rooms. Great guest house for personal events, or great family trip without congregated setting. Thank you Peter and Jay.

2/10 Poor

Worst Customer Service I've Experienced in Jamaica by far, The guy Caretaker is extremely rude and they were unwilling to address the issue with the Roach in the Bathroom

2/10 Poor

Let me start by saying I was very disappointed from the beginning. The pictures displayed on the website are not completely accurate. Upon arrival, my partner and I buzz the bell to enter the property. We had to wait awhile before being let in. They had no idea who we were. As a business owner your staff should know who to expect at your hotel. That confirmed to me that communication was poor from the start. The young lady was looking a some piece of paper. Then as she was looking she said she had to call the owner back to find out some details. The owner instructed her that I had to pay $150, but only get back $100. As she found the paper, which end up being a contract the owner walked in the door. He offered us an upgraded room because we had to wait outside the property for awhile before being buzzed in. However, the room he was offering was right in the lobby with no privacy so we declined. Before getting to the room my partner and the owner had a disagreement about money and the owner said he has the right to refuse guest and not give us back a refund. He was rude and condescending. The bathroom kept flooding every time we took a bath. They gave us a towel cut in half as washcloths. The walls were cracking. Pest in the room and bed. No housekeeping service. Once we went the the Jamaican Tourist Board of Commission to file a complaint and came back our room was cleaned. The owner said the deck has some damage so enter at your own risk. Any problems go to the JTB!!

Great place on the waterfront

I felt very welcome and looked after here. It was so nice to have a waterfront view and I appreciated great a/c and a streaming tv.

My stay here was nice. Everything was as advertised, nice scenery, clean and spacious rooms. The staff on site were nice and if we needed anything they were available to reach. Would stay again in the future!
