Nanny: I agree with most of the reviews. Marlyn, our nanny, was great! we all loved her. Room: very roomy and clean but outdated. Food: the first night we ate at the water front restaurant and it was HORRIBLE. We are not picky at all but it was hard to eat. The buffet food is much better but seems like... more

We went to FDR resort for ten nights, my husnad and ! 30's with our 3 year old and 8 mos old boys.when we got there we were a bit worried because it was dark out and it looked a bit run down but our minds changed quickly the next day. Rooms- Our big and very Jamaican feel, we were... more

We went to FDR Pebbles two years ago, and tried Franklyn D Resort this time. The transfer to the airport was very smooth. We arrived at 5 PM, and the room wasn't ready which was annoying as we had to sit by the pool in our long shirts and pants for an hour. The room was simple but large enough... more

We just returned from what we thought we would not have for another 18 years. That is until we discovered FDR. A truly relaxing vacation. We were impressed from the get go when we met our nanny Monica, she swooped up our 15 month old and they became instant friends. That is one thing that never happens. The personal nanny... more

Many of the previous reviews are right on. The rooms and grounds are a bit outdated, but the people, the service, the activites, and the overall quality of the experience are top-notch. We had a 2 bedroom suite, with plenty of space for our family of four (2 kids, ages 11 and 7). It was clean and comfortable, the AC... more

So here's the deal with the "FDR": The good: It is a great place for a mom and dad to spend time with their children but still be able to go out at night or take a day trip or just get a massage with the peace of mind of knowing that their kids are looked after. My wife and... more

We ended up at the FDR Resort on the recommendation of friends we were travelling with, who had been there the year before. Before we left they talked up the resort to the point where it had a lot to live up to…and it did. The entrance to the hotel is very simple, and doesn't have the 'wow' factor that... more

If you have a child or children, especially less than 12 years old, you must go. You better love your wife or husband. If you do not, it can be a problem. We had so much time to ourselves, we almost got bored. This did not happen, though! The best vacation my wife and I have had in TEN years,... more

Had one week at FDR, wish it could have been longer. We felt like we were on honeymoon the way the staff treated us. Left there soooooooo relaxed and chilled. Everything thing was 'no problem'. Would recommend this hotel to all and sundry, especially good for parents. more
