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 staff were very friendly and the view was nice. Don't think because it is water front there is a beech or easy access. Bright lights shine in your room all night and booming music plays untill 2:00 there was a problem with roaches and ants. There is nowhere clean and safe nearby to eat and getting a ride into town is very expensive for 1 option and very inconvenient for another. The wiring was a fire hazard everywhere i looked. And the barbed wire covered walls are an eyesore. you must try to find someone to let you through the gate if you want to go somewhere. There is never anyone at the desk. The expedia app won't let me add photos.

This hotel is the perfect place to have a small destination wedding.It is very affordable and right on the ocean. You can walk out on the long deck and watch a school of fish swim by. I stayed in the large room on the second floor, which had a grand view of the ocean. The owner, Mr. Robinson, was extremely helpful, friendly, and informative. He went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable. I mentioned that I wanted to eat some fruits that are not available in the US. Mr. Robinson served some of those fruits in my complementary breakfast every morning. The property is clean and it is relaxing. You can sit outside the room on the tiled veranda, listen to the ocean waves, take in the breathtaking views, and watch the cruise ships come in from afar. I didn’t have a car, but that wasn’t a problem. Mr. Robinson called one of his licensed tour guide friends (Robert) and asked him to escort me around the island. Robert’s fees were reasonable and I felt safe with him as a single woman. Robert was extremely informative about the area, and a patient driver. He took me to get a limestone massage, Rick’s Café, & Margaritaville. I had such a wonderful time in Jamaica. I would definitely recommend this beautiful hotel to anyone.

The pictures online are deceiving. This is basically a motel with a waterfront. No places to eat or drink anything in walkable distance.

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.
