My wife and I just had the most incredible 4 night stay at GoldenEye for our anniversary. We stayed in one of the Lagoon Cottages which was very roomy and comfortable. We loved being directly on the lagoon where we could swim, kayak or just sit and watch the turtles go by. We enjoyed the beaches and pools on the property as well. All of the staff (front desk, restaurants, grounds, water sports, spa, etc.) were wonderful. And, every meal we had at Bizot Bar and Bamboo Bar was delicious and featured the freshest local ingredients and bright Jamaican flavors in a good variety of traditional dishes. I cannot think of a single negative. We cannot wait to go back next year.

Beautiful property with rich history

We had a wonderful stay at GoldenEye — it’s a truly stunning property. We loved our beach hut; it was charming, comfortable, and perfectly in keeping with the laid-back vibe of the resort. The grounds are incredible — the beach and especially the lagoon are absolutely magical. We stayed on the beach, but in hindsight, we’d have preferred a lagoon hut if one had been available. The restaurants were good — casual and relaxed, which suited the atmosphere, though on the pricey side (as expected for a place like this). While the overall service felt a bit hands-off and self-service at times, the restaurant staff were amazing — warm, friendly, and genuinely went out of their way to make the experience special. Special thanks to Kevin, who really stood out! There were a few service hiccups — we had breakfast delivered once and it arrived cold with a few things missing, so we didn’t repeat that. We also asked several times for the mini bar fridge to be emptied so we could use it for our own water, but it was never done. GoldenEye is undeniably beautiful and unique, with a one-of-a-kind setting. That said, for the price point, we felt it lacked a bit of the personal touch and polish you'd expect. Still, it's a special place that offers something truly different — peaceful, naturally stunning, and full of character.

We selected GoldenEye because my husband is a James Bond scholar. The property was beautiful and the beaches were calm, magnificent, and shallow, although I think it does get deeper as you go out further. My 3 star rating comes because of two reasons. Firstly, the food was ok, nothing memorable, just OK. My problem with this is that at that cost, I expect magnificent. We had an expensive buffet dinner (this includes two drinks and tip) and were expecting memorable. This is a beautiful resort. It is a lot like an all inclusive without the inclusive. It is very secluded (and I get that this is their intention, which is to give their guests privacy.) So if you like all inclusive, this is your type of place. My 3 star rating comes from a personal experience. Before arriving I write to ask if I could invite my cousin for lunch. My first answer was a bit nebulous and strange, so I wrote again and was told that I could not because the property was full and they could not accommodate two extras. We were there for three days and each night me and my husband sat at a table for four with two empty seats. My point here is that I prefer to be spoken to truthfully. If the protocol is that folks in the beach huts are not allowed guests, then just say so because I am sure if Adele asks to have two guests for lunch, she will not get a "sorry, we are full," when that is clearly not the case. But as I said, if you like upscale all-inclusives, this is your place (without the inclusives).

This is a very unique property which is very restful during the day and the property is kept in great condition. The location is quiet noisy at night with the nearby road. The staff are generally friendly and helpful however the front desk are quite abrupt and the restaurant staff are sometimes slow and forgetful. The prices are top dollar but the overall staff service is not 5 star.

Goldeneyes location is sublime, it truly is a hidden gem. However we were so dissatisfied with the service and food options. It was the life guard that brought us water at the beach, there were plenty of other staff but they never once checked to see if we would like a drink. Considering we only saw six other guests they were hardly run off their feet! The food options were also disappointing to say the least. There was only one restaurant in the evening with a very limited menu. We only stayed two night but would have got very bored with the choice very quickly. They did offer us the option of choosing anything and the chef would do it but I really don’t want to think that hard when I am on holiday after all that is what I do at home. The final nail was how expensive both the food and drink were.
