We have been to Coyaba a few times in the past. We tried a different island last year, but had to return to Coyaba...it is absolutely the best! We love it so much that we brought 4 other couples with us this time! The hotel is nice and small and the service is superb. The staff welcomed us back like we were family. There is a new hotel manager who was extremely nice and always wanting to please, as was the food manager. The both of them are always around checking to make sure everyone is happy and well taken care of. There is also a new chef and menu which were outstanding. The food is fabulous. The beach has been improved, so swimming was a pleasure. I can't say anything negative...we just love it and can't wait to go back!!

I chose this location for myself and my daughters ages 18 and 22 after extensive research and finally from the excellent ratings that I read, and the beautiful photos on their website. I can only say that nothing prepared me for the exceptionally superior service and friendliness that we received during our stay. Words and pictures cannot, in any way, describe the people that make Coyaba such an amazing destination. We arrived tired and stressed and are leaving not only relaxed and revitalized, but with many new friends as well. I don't think I have ever read a review of a hotel where kindness, smiles and exceptional service superceded the location, but that is the result of experiencing Coyaba. Every corner of this property is breathtaking in it's beauty and the food is beyond description. Not one single meal or moment has left us less than blissfully content and satisfied. I only wish there were a rating superior to Excellent for Coyaba, they truly deserve it.

My husband and I stayed at Coyaba from 3-12 March and could not have asked for a better location. The whole experience, from being greeted at the airport, to our welcome at the reception desk (and a rum punch) and the entire stay was amazing throughout.

Don't bother leaving the resort for meals - breakfasts were varied and delicious, lunch at Docks was fantastic (the mahi mahi, and jerk pork wrap in particular). The evening meals at The Vineyard surpassed all our expectations - menu choices changed every evening and the food served was of a very high standard (equivalent to or even better than any of the top restaurants in London).

We had opted for a garden suite and the room was spacious, air con worked wonders in the afternoons especially after a long day in the sun.

The bar staff were very friendly and more than willing to serve cocktails throughout the day.

Overall I would rate Coyaba as excellent. Its boutique style size (only 50 rooms) means that the service is more personal, the beach isn't overrun by fellow tourists and it feels exclusive. The staff are what make this a wonderful place to enjoy a holiday - they were incredibly friendly at all times. We will definitely be returning!

I booked a 3 night 4 day trip at Coyaba for me and my wife as a last minute yahoo package deal. We've been to Jamaica two times in the past but only for day stops on a cruise. We reserved an ocean deluxe room and when we checked in were offered a junior ocean suite for 30 dollars extra a night. We saw both rooms and quickly upgraded to what seemed like the best room in the resort. Absolutely stunning view of the blue lagoon and ocean from the balcony of our huge room. We chose not to get the all inclusive package because we had planned to go do several things away from the resort and didn't think we would be taking advantage of all the meals included. We did eat at two of the three restaurants at Coyaba and enjoyed the food very much but felt it was quite expensive, but maybe would've been worth the all inclusive price had we stayed in each day. We took a kayak which is free, down the beach to the Sandals resort and was amazed at how much it looked like a hotel with a crowded public beach. Coyaba has it's own private tranquil beach to make you feel as if you own the joint and have a few friends staying with you. I went snorkeling for free by myself and was taken out to the best area of reef by one of the Coyaba staff members in the resort's motor boat. My wife got a massage on the pier over looking the blue sea. The staff was unbelievably nice and everyone you saw greeted you with smiles. Even our room stewards, Hycanith and Dahlia made up our room each day with special care to make you feel they loved their jobs. Scott Robins manages the resort and went out of his way to meet everyone and make you feel welcome. We've been to several resorts and timeshares and rate Coyaba beach resort Montego Bay as our favorite. This resort is truly worth the price for the exclusive experience you will never forget.
