Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay

We got the chance to visit Secrets St. James back in November and fell in love with the resort.. we were lucky enough to be able to come back to Jamaica for our 10-year anniversary and stay at Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay this time around. Everything about this Resort is top notch. The staff is wonderful. You always hear good morning or how is your stay going?.. the only complaint if any is that housekeeping cleans rooms until around 4 or 4:30 into the day.. that makes it difficult if you want to come in later in the day to rest before going out for the evening As before the food was wonderful. Whether you eat at the restaurants or order room service it's all very good. The Night Time Entertainment is hit-or-miss. When it rains unfortunately it has to be brought into the theater which takes away from the beauty of being able to sit outside. I do wish that the music at night and at the pools was more upbeat and fun The pools are amazing and the beach is beautiful. It's so nice to have the view of the ocean along with the beautiful mountains We love this Resort and hopefully we'll get the chance to come back again. I would recommend it to anyone

I chose this location based on the recommendation of some friends who have had multiple pleasant experiences at this resort. The resort is nice and had a number of amenities that are worth of applause, but I was underwhelmed mainly because of a lack of attention to detail. The glasses at the outdoor bars consistently smelled and tasted like dish washing detergent. The only time I had an actual glass to drink from was in the restaurants. Drinking from plastic is not what I expect from an advertised "4 star" facility.

Overall we had a great experience, the hotel and grounds were beautiful and access to sister properties were great. The water and reef in front of the hotel were everything that we could have hoped for. The food and beverage overall was excellent as well. A few surprises were the cost of taxis, you could travel cheaper in NY city, we went on a 20 mile round trip and the fee was $100... Also the people working the hotel were fine but not the happy gregarious staffs that we are used to while traveling in other locations. We did enjoy our trip and are glad to have gone but we will probably not be back to Jamaica.

Beautiful resort, great amenities, delicious food. We booked a room in the Preferred Club as suggested by our travel agent and were not disappointed. There was a private pool and less crowded private beach. Closer to all the restaurants. No swim-up pool bar though in our area; although the servers came quite often to take our drink orders. This resort is next to Secrets St. James Resort which was a little less exclusive. A definite recommendation!

The resort was nice. The excursion included eating at the restaurants use of pool and pool bars as well as the beach. This was the most expensive excursion I booked through the cruise line. It was a short bus ride from the port. It was however a very small roped off beach area. Nice lounge chairs were available at no extra cost..
