My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Sea Shell Palms. The staff were amazing! Everyone was friendly and welcoming from security to housekeeping. They were approachable and helpful, especially Richardo, what a gentleman. Thank you guys for everything, we can’t wait to come back again. I also want to shout out Duplate restaurant on the plaza for accommodating us and preparing special meals for my husband, we appreciate your hospitality. The breakfast was wonderful every day, thank you.

This was my second stay at Sea Shell Palms. My first experience in May was very positive, so when I returned to Jamaica, I knew I wanted to stay here again. It is near Ocho Rios. Tower Isle is quiet and Sea Shell Palms offers great value for the cost. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Guests select what they would like for breakfast the day before and it is delivered to your door in the morning- delicious and filling. Everyone at Sea Shell Palms is friendly and the balcony with chairs is a nice place to sit and relax, read, and talk with staff and other guests. In front of the hotel is a plaza with everything I needed- grocery stores, restaurant, ice cream shop, pharmacy, post office, and church. When I was at Sea Shell Palms in May, they were working on putting in a swimming pool. When I returned in November, the pool was ready and I enjoyed swimming laps. So my stay was even better this time.
