Dreaming of warm sun on your face and sand between your toes? Explore
Holiday Inn Sunspree in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Just five minutes from Sangster
International Airport, the Sunspree offers a fabulous all-inclusive Caribbean
experience. This beachfront property comes complete with a half-mile,
sugar-sand beach perfect for soaking up the rays. It features great activities
for kids of all ages too! We think mom and dad will appreciate that one of the
two pools, with a swim-up bar, is for adults only. And while kids are rockin'
it up in the Kidspree Vacation Club, we suggest their parents try out the
honey-ginger body scrub at Sol Mer Spa and Salon.

Not bad for an all inclusive price :)
The drinks were amazing (non stop!) and the food was not too bad. The buffet had a lot of choices plus all the little food huts were great! I practically lived at the Jerk Hut because the Jerk Chicken was fantastic!!! The only downfall to the trip was the beds weren't all that comfy, the cable kept going out and I rarely got hot water for my showers. Luckily we didn't go to Jamaica to sleep and watch TV! GO ZIPLINING, IT WAS AWESOME!!! Ask the bartender for a BBC (bananas, baileys (or in there case rum cream) and Coconut frozen drinks), they are sooooo amazing!! Lastly, if you're going to have a good (adult) time, this is the place for you! I will come back but not with my kids. It is more tailored for those going to party!!
We had a blast The food was great the enterainment was great. The resort was very nice, needs to upgrade a little bit. But overall we had a great time.
My wife and I both thougt the Resort was wonderful and enjoyed all of the amenities and food. The restaurants were all excellent and enjoyed the food in the main dining room also. It was very nice having the food/drink Huts spred out the way they were so it was easy to get something any where on the Resort. The room was very clean and spacious and we were surprised with a room upgrade when we checked in. The only thing that we would recommend to the Resort is to put in a nice Dance Club so people don't have to leave the Resort for that kind of Entertainment. All in all we had a great time and will definetly come back!
This is our third trip to Jamaica and it was very disappointing. It started at check in-the front desk employee was very unfriendly, made no effort to make us feel welcome. Upon entering the room I was almost ready to turn around and go home. There was an awful dirty sewage smell that lingered all week. The bed was a nightmare- I have never felt a mattress so hard. I slept on it the first night but woke up the next morning in such incredible pain I wasn't sure how I could make it through 5 more nights. I had the sofa bed made up because at least that lumpy mattress was softer. The view from the room was very pretty but the room location was terrible at night with the noise from the evening entertainment. The way the resort is set up most of the rooms are overlooking the pool area that also housing the stage for the entertainment and therefore you have to deal with the noise every night until the early hours. If we moved away from that area we would have been near the "adult pool" which was filled with a crowd of drunk "adults". The beach was chopped up in several very small areas-you have to be ok with sitting on top of each other. And then there was the food issue........ what more can I say but YUCK!!! It was some of the most disgusting food I have ever eaten! There was no variety and the quality...HORRIBLE. I have been to quite a few all inclusive resorts and we are aware that it is mass produced food to accommodate a lot of people but this food was sometimes not even edible. Thank goodness I had packed granola bars to bring with me. Even the "specialty" restaurants were lacking except for Kenko (Japanese with a $20 per person surcharge) which was the only meal in our 6 night stay that I enjoyed. I was very disappointed with the staff also-the majority of them were not very accommodating or friendly-we felt as if we were bothering them sometimes. Evening entertainment was average and typical- except for a gentleman that played violin on the pool deck during dinner . He was very good and quite enjoyable. The resort grounds were kept very neat and clean and quite pretty. It's very sad to say but I was glad to come home (after we had to pay $5 to print our boarding pass-they don't provide a printer to the guests!) The Holiday Inn Sunspree was not for us.

Jamaica special $479 all inclusive11 answers
Hello,
I wanted to book the Jamaica trip for 4 nights, but when I do, it tacks on airfair making it $717 or so. How do I make sure to get the all inclusive with air without having them tack on air? Also, do we need passports to go to Jamaica? When is the best time to go? What days are the cheapest to flight out of LAX? I'd like to get answers before I move forward.
Thanks

Yolanda
The package pricing as advertised on the site includes airfare and hotel accomodations based on flights out of Miami. When changing your departure city to Los Ageles, this automatically increases the base price of the reservation by $250 per person. So when the site provides you with a price of $717 per person, this is the going rate for hotel accomodations and airfare from LAX. The winter season is considered the busiest time of year, and therefore is generally more expensive than travel in the summer and fall.
KateCC
I would not waste my money on this resort. I am currently staying here and I think that it's a complete waste of money. You would be better off staying at a regular hotel and going to restaurants. The food would certainly taste better! Yes you definitely need your passports for Jamaica. Be prepared to wait in line at customs and immigration when you get here!!!
UNHAPPYguest
You do need passports that's what I was told and don't fly with Spirit Airlines. Each bag is $30 each way. We had two bags and we paid $63 each way.
1stTimer
Hi Yolanda. Yes, you DO need a passport to travel to Jamaica. Airfare is in addition to the resort charge, but if you book in advance, you can get a good price through Cheap Caribbean. My advice to you - don't use US Airways!!!!! I highly recommend the Holiday Inn Sunspree to you. It can't be beat - and I've been to Jamaica many times over the years. My family and I just returned Saturday and had a wonderful time there. You won't be disappointed! I'd say that from now through July would be a good time to travel to Jamaica - but again, anytime on the island is fantastic! Best wishes for a great vacation!
Familyof6
I found that the really low airfare prices were if you flew out of Florida. We also found that flying out on a Wednesday and returning on a Tuesday seemed to keep the price of flying lower. You can put in different dates for arrival and departure to see what is cheaper. Yes, you will need a passport to get in and out of Jamaica. We just got back last week and had a wonderful time! It was amazing!
countrygirl
Hi, just to let you know that you do need passports for Jamaica.
As far as the extra money added leaving from LAX, it does that to any state but Miami. It did for us too leaving from Philadelphia.
The cheapest time to fly is normaly mon-wed.
Hope this comes in handy.
naty
the $479 rate is a base rate and it goes up based on where you fly from. Most resorts are all inclusive and you will definately need a passport. Passports can take up to 12 weeks to get unless you pay an extra fee, so keep that in mind when you book your trip
dabman
You do need passports! Your rate sounds about right - I'm not sure you're going to find anything any cheaper than that! We were told by the local Jamaican folks that the rainy season start in May and continues into September, so I'd recommend going in March/April! Both times I've been to Jamaica, it was in April - it was only around 83 degrees or so, but the humidity makes it feel much warmer!
DolphinGirl
Just when you choosing resort, check departure city on top and it will show prices including air fare from destination you of you choice. You do need passport, it is different country. It is same weather all year long, so really best time for me is when is better prices.
belitchenko
YES! You need your passports!
CLOVE
I just got back from there. Had a wonderful time with my daughter. we spent approx. $ 1800.00 for all inclusive hotel plus air and 2 tours, also get the trans form/ to - airport approx. 20-30 dollars. You will need a passport ! The weather was hot but not as bad as here in CA. It was humid but you spend alot of time in the water.

Do you have any all-inclusive deals leaving from NY?9 answers
2 years, 27 months ago
N
The Holiday Inn Sunspree is strictly an all inclusive resort. The starting price for the current special at the Holiday Inn Sunspree is based on flights out of Miami, however you can change the departure city to New York. There will be an additional cost to fly from New York for this package. Any other resort can also be priced from New York by using the gold "Create Your Own Vacation" box at the top left hand corner of the page. Just select a destination, dates of travel and the meals included option and the available All Inclusive resorts will be priced for you.

What exactly in included in the "all inclusive" package?11 answers
Hello, my fiancee and I are currently planning our honeymoon and we were hoping to get an all includive package. I know that some all inclusive packages are different from each other, but we were looking to get a package that include all unlimited foods and beverages (alcohol included) for the entire 7-day trip, spas, tours, entertainment and other exciting things. The food and beverage and the flight is the main thing for us, but side attractions won't be bad either. I just want to know if your all includive package for the Jamaica holiday inn resort for $549 includes all of this, or if you have any other packages.
1 year, 23 months ago
Jewel
I would recommend it. We ate way too much food and drinks and it was all included. Also, book a dinner (also included) at the Breezes rest. in the resort. Try the food, its prepared by the locals. Go sailing, kayaking and there is an "adult area" also with a swim up bar. The resort has plenty of entertainment. I also recommend going to Dunn Falls. Great place for honeymooners. Make a trip to Margaritaville take the catamaran trip and go to the Jamaican Bobsled bar. If you want to just chill at the resort its a great place.
StillSmilin
Just returned yesterday from this resort. Alcohol, all other beverages, meals, and flight were included in our package. The food isn't the best but for 1500.00 dollars for 4 nights plus airfare and meals, it was a great price. The place is clean, the hospitality isn't great and there are lots of kids there. There are also three restaurants you can make reservations but you have to make the reservations the night before you eat there. You should be at the courtesy/information desk every morning at 7 am to get your reservations because they go QUICK. There is also a small adult pool and beach area that isn't roped off in the adult beach area. Small but we enjoyed those areas most. The landscaping at the resort is gorgeous. If you have an extra 800-1000, I would stay at the Iberostar. But if you are just dying to go to Jamaica and you aren't picky, you could have a good time at this resort. We had a great time but have a good sense of humor. For example, my husbands sandals were stolen right off the beach....Gotta have a sense of humor about that or it could ruin your vacation. Ox tail, braised kidneys, boiled green bananas, are examples of food you will find on the buffet. No thanks. Make sure you get your dinner reservations.... I enjoyed the beach area very much but my husband thought it was a little small. The water is pretty shallow.
Peri2007
The price is right. Have been to the resort twice in the past 2 yrs. They have a nice Gazebo sitting in the ocean for the wedding they cater to all of the weddings we have seen there. the Cool Runnings Dunn River Falls cruise is fun. The trip to Margaritaville is fun ( wear Bathing suits they have a water slide). Watersports at resort are fine as well.
gregth
All inclusive entails hotel, flight, food, drinks, alcohol, nightly entertainment, non-motorized water sports, other sports activities (volleyball, golf, etc), and the kids camp. It does not include the salon/spa, shopping, tours or excursions. The extra stuff (waterfalls, parasailing, etc) is easy to book through the Guest Services desk at the hotel.
BeachBuddy
This is a family resort. There is an adult section, but keep in mind, all the entertainment and eating are where the families are. We had a great time, but not sure if I would go just with my husband. If your budget is limited, then go for it because everything is included!! Food is great and so are the drinks. Just bring 32oz cups with you to fill your drinks with because they only serve in 4oz cups. Hve fun!
Bower
All your food, beverages are included alcohol as well. Non motorized sports are also included. We just returned from our honeymoon at the Holiday Inn Resort. Too many kids!! Food is alright nothing out of this world. If your honeymooning I would choose an adult only resort.
Johnsons2011
We just returned from Jamaica and spent 6 days at the Holiday Inn Sunspree. The all-inclusive includes drinks (soda, juice, water, and alcohol) and food. If you go, bring a large insulated cup for drinks as the cups they provide are very small. The resort has 3 restaraunts in which you must make dinner reservations for (included) and one buffet style restaruant open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the hotel lobby. The food was typical all-inclusive food meaning that it was edible but not something you would want to eat all the time. The hotel is older but clean and the beach is small. However, for the money it isn't that bad. If you could afford to spend a bit more, I would choose an adult only hotel in Negril. Negril is beautiful and has tourquoise water. Montego Bay is a large city.

Hi Jewel,
I'm Liz..My friend & I just got back Sunday from here & it was wonderful!!!! For the price ..U can't beat it!! Food, drinks, room , & air all inc. Excursions & sightseeing are not but U cab book right there & for the most part they were reasonable!! Congrats & Enjoy!!! Liz
Ladybuc
it's everything but the spa
BethanyB86
All meals and beverages (alcohol) were included. The hotel had nightly entertainment. There was also a free shuttle bus from the hotel to Margaritaville.There were some (non motorized) water sports included. Excursions off the resort can be costly.
beachmama7
Everything is included. Bring a larger cup or thermos if your are a drinker because the back and forth with the eight ounce cups isn't fun. Tons of food at multiple spots along beach. Snorkeling...well bring your own. Very few and you only get hr. Nightly show are free out by the pool. you literally don't need a dime if your plan is to stay at the hotel. Boring... Hit the excursions. Best time of your life

At the Holiday Inn/Montego Bay whats the dress code for most restaurants?11 answers
At one of the restaurant it says formal dinning.....A woman ofcourse would wear a dress or somthing nice. But for a man would a nice pair of shorts, a button up and maybe some boat shoes be okay? Were leaving in a month and i'm just trying to get an idea on what my boyfriend should bring. Thanks!
1 year, 22 months ago
Awalts
You have the right idea! You should be fine with that for most restaurants. Sorrento is a little more formal so he may want to bring a pair of pants if you decide to make a reservation at the Italian Restaurant. Enjoy!
KellyCC
Usually for formal, or even dress casual the men have to wear long pants. They can get away with sandals but not flip flops and a golf shirt is usually ok, as long as it is a collared shirt. Women can wear capris and sandals or sundresses but not shorts. hope this helps. Although we did not stay at the Holiday Inn this is general dress for all resorts,
aplblossom
They say no flip flops, tank tops or shorts for ladies and man have to wear long pants. The pants are the most important, I saw man wearing jeans, sandals and regular t-shirts. My daughter wore one of this rompers with shorts and I had my regular beach flip flops on, and nobody said anything.
elap
you have to wear long pants for 1 of the places,and it's the best place to go, the surrento.
BethanyB86
no shorts, nice casual pants and short sleeve shirt
father
Hello!
Yeah, the restarants that had the dress codes where not that uptight. You could pretty much wear a sun dress and as for guys, as long as he has sleeves on his shirts he will be good .
Kmart
I would go with Pants for the gentleman. Enjoy!
beachmama7
At some of the restaurants, shorts and collared shorts are allowed for men. At others no shorts, flip-flops etc. Have him pack at least one pair of long pants, and you should be fine.
Platinumwalls
No flip flops and for guys long pants were required in the Italian restaurant. All 3 restaurants wanted guys to wear a shirt with collar.
Bookbuddy
european style shorts below the knee work great with a collared shirt and no flip flops for the restaurants
worlduuman
They aren't extremely strict. Wear some pants and descent shirt and your good to go.

Transportation11 answers
We opted out for the shuttle service, is this a safe deal? I know the resort is only five minutes away from the airport,so approx cab fair?
1 year, 21 months ago
Kelly
No I would have taken the shuttle. Cabs there are very expensive and they could pick up multiple people.
Laxmom
Hi Kelly,
I would recommend taking the transportation with the package, the average cab fare is $30.00 USD.
RJUDYS
We bought the RT transfer for two of us $40. Cab fare board at the hotel said it would be $30 to the airport.
Bookbuddy
yes.......$20-25
worlduuman
The question should perhaps be is it worth opting out off. When I saw the 22 or 24 dollars the website asked for a five minute ride I thought heck no.... A taxi ride can't be more than 10. Well it was 30. Flat rate from everyone no matter the distance as long as it was montego. we rode alone on a bus but if I could do it again I'd go with website deal
MrVacation
Cab fair is about $1.75 american dollars and I would say that is safe.
raru
Highly recommend the shuttle service cab fares are high in Jamaica. They meet you at the airport load your luggage and get you right to your hotel.
Terry57
Hotel to resort is about 10 minutes. Very very close but listed taxi prices are unbelievably high. If you can haggle on price, I wouldnt worry about taxi safety. Taxi's are quite often shuttles/vans and have red plates.
FromNJ
I would do the Shuttle service, really easy and they are nice.
Maria9101
I had my own escort service and the service was reasonable and cheap.
Babes
You can probably still get on the shuttle bus and I would if you can. It is only a 5-10 min drive, but the taxi will cost you $30-40 US dollars. When we got to the airport we told them we were staying at the Holiday Inn and they directed us to the shuttle bus stand where they put a wrist band on us and then we walked out to the bus. On our way to the airport the bus left us so we had to take a cab and we bargained with him because all we had left was 17 dollars. He agreed to it and we were glad because its a 6 dollar fee to take cash out of the atm.
LoveDogs
It is better to use the shuttle. Taxis tend to be expensive. Shuttle runs all day from 10:00 AM to 3:00 and takes you to the city for night life in the evenings.

How much does babysitting cost?8 answers
My wife and I are thinking about staying at the Sunspree. This is our first trip to jamaica would like to bring our 1-yr old with us. Does the hotel offer in-room babysitting? What is the fee for childcare?
1 year, 20 months ago
Kermit
Babysitting is offered at the resort for an additional cost, but the pricing would depend on the time of day, the age of the child, and other factors, therefore we would not be able to quote a specific price at this time.
KristinCC
Yes, the hotel offer childcare, but i did not use the service as I do not have small children. If I can remember correctly the fee was $35.00 for the whole day.
Babes
They dont have in room babysitting but they have a playplace/daycare that sits the children I believe until 9 pm... I've heard great things from the couples that had their kids stay with them.
Mider
I don't know if they have in-room babysitting, but they do have a kids club that took infants. There were two age ranges that they accepted so that the infants were not with the older kids. I do not think there was a fee for this, but I am not sure. There were quite a few infants their during our visit.
Zingara
I didn't bring kids but I think it's $10.00 an hour.
robinson124
I don't believe they charge anything but they do have a nice playground and all kinds of activities for the kids all day. There were lots of kids.All ages.
Resh
I didn't see any offer for babysitting and even if I did, I wouldn't trust my child to this staff. They were not warm and friendly at all and the atmosphere was not welcoming.
gfish
They do offer in room nanny service. The cost is $10/hr for up to 2 kids up until about 12am I think. Then a higher rate from 12am - 2am, and higher still for 2am-whenever. Not sure if you'd leave your kids like that, but we used it to go to dinner one night and it was great. Ask for Joyce!

Nothing from/to the airport. Side trips can be negotiated with different tour guides at the motel but are very reasonable.
ginchabar
we bought the transfer from Cheap Carribean at $10 per person, but not recommend it, because you have to wait for a bus and it stops at other hotels.
Sunspree is only 15 minutes from airport and a taxi costs $7.50 per person.

YOU ADD IT ON TO YOUR RESERVATIONS IN ADVANCE FOR ABOUT 22 A PERSON ROUND TRIP. CHEAPER FOR A CHILD. WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS.

Cheap Caribbean can handle that for you!

Hotel shuttle to airport was $22 for 2 guests both ways. There were some free shuttles from hotel to Margaritaville (but you can visit that place in any major american city) and the shopping centers. All other shuttles are part of tours.
gfish
We had the hotel transfer to and from the hotel added to our package from CheapCarribean. We used JTL for the transfers and for our day trip to the Dunns River falls. It was not much and well worth it. The Taxi's are very expensive.

Deluxe Room8 answers
What is the biggest differences between the Standard, Superior, and Deluxe room. I know the view is one but what bout room size, fridge, bathroon, updated room? King size bed?
1 year, 17 months ago
Vicky
Hi Vicky,
Thank you for your question. The only difference between the room categories is the view. All of the rooms are renovated and have the same amenities including mini fridge, wi fi in the room, 2 doubles or 1 king bed, balcony or terrace. The Standard has a city view, the Superior has an Ocean view, and the Deluxe has an Ocean Front view.
ccsusan1
Building 7 had higher ceilings which made the room seem a little bigger. It also had a fridge in a cabinet but not stocked with anything. The beds were king size but a little hard.. No extra blankets to soften them in the room. The bathrooms were all the same size, big enough for 1 person at a time. The rooms were clean but not new. The first 2 rooms were the same, King size bed, 2 nightstands. long dresser with tv on top and a small table with a chair and a small couch. One chair on the patio with a small table and the other rooms had 2 chairs on the patio and a small table.
Roxy3
We stayed in an standard, ocean front with a king bed, nothing special, just a coffee machine, but the rest of the resort was very nice.

NOT SURE WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IN ROOMS WERE. BUT WE HAD THE STANDARD AND THAT OFFERED REFRIGERATORS AND A REMARKABLE BALCONY VIEW.

I had paid for a garden view- 1 king or 2 queen beds-Extravagganza. I got upgraded for free to an ocean view, 2 queen beds. I think it was a Superior room, but not sure. It had a desk and chair and a mini fridge, balcony, and small lounge chair inside the room. Great size!
NYCCaribQueen22
I had a standard. It was fine.

Is any part of the resort clothing optional?11 answers

Hank
Yes - at the adult pool. There were numerous topless sunbathers there. My husband obviously enjoyed that!

You need to have on at least a bathing suit at the beach and pool. A decent cover up is good at the buffet. For dinner at the restaurants where you will need a reservatins ,trousers are needed for the men and button up or polo shirt. For women a dress, skirt or slacks are appropriate.

No - there are no beaches that are clothing optional.

With the packages that include "children stay and eat free", does that include their air fare too?11 answers
1 year, 16 months ago
Brenda
NO THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE AIRFARE. HOPE THAT HELPS. BUT, DOES SAVE MONEY.
paveit001
When pricing out a package with children the airfare will be included but it is not free. If your package does qualify for the "children stay and eat free", the only thing that should be charged for the children is airfare, taxes and other adds ons purchased.
DanielleCC
No, not their air fare... it includes hotel stay, meals and activities!
HMEGYRL
No, that only applies to the hotel.
xtratall
No, you still need to pay for their airfare

Unfortunately, NO.
JDAP
No it does not include the airfare. We just went and had to play for there flight but not the hotel.

absolutely not!!!
traveler201
This would be the deal of the century if the flights were included also. The majority of the cost of this package is the airfare. Check with the folks at Cheap Caribbean to be certain.

The resort will allow you to meet and socialize with guests in the lobby. If they wish to use any of the amenities, the beach, bar or restaurants they would have to purchase a day pass or a night pass.

How much doe's it cost to upgrade a room from standard to deluxe?11 answers
We are looking at the package deal with air but it only offered a standard room. Would like to know the cost difference to a deluxe room.
1 year, 16 months ago
tomscarpt
During the booking process, it gives you the opportunity to upgrade your room category. Pricing would depend on the specific travel dates and the resort's occupancy level.
MariaCC
We had a deluxe room facing the water the upgrade cost us $ 172.00
jacnjer
I think it's like $60, but we didn't get the upgrade our room still had a balcony & ocean view though.
lpettigrew
Not worth even $10. I upgraded to the "Exttraveganza Suite" and it was basically a standard room. Shower was tiny and dirty. Bathroom was inconveniently laid out.
gfish
Not sure that there are upgradable rooms at the resort we were not offered any and did not hear anyone speaking of it
NotagaininJamiaca
I believe that it wasn't more than about 140$. I would recommend an ocean view room in building seven if you can get it.
IslandJumper
It was $25 more per person to upgrade to deluxe room. When we got there, we were upgraded to a suite without extra fee.
Claireese
not sure $$ but it is much recommended. Deluxe has good view and some rooms have refrigerator. Standard does not have good view. Very basic room.
tbone0818
You are better to get the standard because if you upgrade to anything else, they are to going to politely take your money and put you in a standard rate room.
jphadley
Call the hotel, you can upgrade upon check in. We inquired about the kids suite which would have coat an additional $500 for the week but, was not worth our money as we did not spend any time in our room. The beds are small so if you are sharing the bed I would ask to see if they have kids size bed.
Kezia
it is a not a major difference in price. When you are booking it will give you the option of choosing a dfiferent room and will show the diference in price. Depending on occupanccy level, you might book a standard and get a deluxe.
Taaras
When doing a package, does it cost more for a single person?10 answers
1 year, 14 months ago
Boston
Yes, in most cases a single person in the room will pay more per person than two persons sharing a room. The resorts price the room according to double occupancy so generally, a single person is paying around the same price himself as two people combined are paying for the same room.
ccsusan1
We booked 4 rooms and two of them had singes in them and we were not charged more.
traveler201
I think the package is based on double occupancy. Check with the folks at Cheap Caribbean. I'm pretty sure that kids are free. This place is family oriented and a lot of folks with young kids go. We saw one family with eight kids. The primary allure of this place is the price.
AWhit
I went with a friend, we had separate rooms. Cost was exactly the same as if we shared one.
daytripper
not sure, but usually sadly yes. Most resorts like to book doubles or families. i know single airfare is cheaper too.
mamahat
yes, but not outrageous.

Any questions you may have the people that work at Cheap Caribbean .com can answer for you.
Jewel75
Generally yes but I was lucky enough to get the same rate as if I were in booking double.So I guess keep checking rates daily as I did because the prices go up and down

None for buffet or Jamaican restaurant but the Italian and Seafood restaurants which require daily reservations does. So throw a nice in your luggage. Not your Sunday best suit etc, just no flip flops, shorts, t-shirts allowed. Enjoy!

The buffet requires no swimsuits as well as no tank/muscle shirts for the men at dinner (other times of the day the only requirement is for no wet clothes). The other restaurants were the same, however most people dressed up a bit for them....closed toe shoes and button up shirt for the men, slacks or skirt for the ladies. Nothing terribly fancy but a bit dressier.

The Hoiliday Inn Sunspree Montego Bay is an all inclusive property. This means that all of your meals, snacks as well as alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages are included in the package price. Some restaurants may require a surcharge for certain items such as prime cuts of steak or lobster.
Baggage allowances and pricing can vary by airline so you will want to check directly with your carrier to see what their restrictions are.
KateHCC
Food all day long and pretty darn good. We brought one bag for the two of us and we were comfortable in bathing suits, shorts, tops and sandals. Bring a nice shirt or light tropical dress if you go to a nice restaurant but really not necessary.

Yes dining is included. The buffet is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner until 10PM. At 10PM the Barefood Grill opens up again serving grilled cheese, hamburgers, veggieburgers and fish. (You can eat all day long)
You must make reservations by 3PM the day before for the other restaurants. So for the first night the buffet is your only choice.
As far as bagge goes the airline charages $25.00 per bag each way and the is not included.

Yes, dining is included. Three buffet meals a day (breakfast was about 3 hours, lunch was about 2 hours and dinner was about 3 hours) plus restaurants (some you have to make reservations for) and a Jerk Hut and Barefoot Bar that provides "snacks" like grilled cheese, hamburgers and jerk chicken/pork throughout the day. No worries about having food at any time.

when does the pool close6 answers
4 months ago
SJP
The pool hours are subject to change but it is not uncommon for pools to close at dark or even earlier for daily maintenance.
KellyCC
Its seems once the sun sets, the pool closes- it's definitely not open at night as we saw a few people get kicked out of the pool when they jumped in at about 10pm - they were pretty drunk though and ended up being escorted back to their rooms after they went in the pool again after being told not to.
Sidenote: This hotel does have a free shuttle to the Margaritaville in Montego Bay it leaves at 10pm + 11pm and drops you back off at resort at 1am + 2am
CanadianVacationer110
The lifeguard is off at 5 but I don't think the pool ever closes. They had 2 different pools. One big circular pool and then the adult pool.
IowaTravelers
Not exactly for sure but by dinner(6-8pm) most people where out of pool.
Olskooldiva
It is open all day/night, except when they clean it, which is between 7-10 am. Lifeguards go off duty at 5 pm

the life guards stop are off duty at 5 PM. but they say you can go to the pool at any time, at you own risk.

Does the arcade cost money?2 answers
I had previously asked if the game room cost money. Someone answered that it was included, which I appreciate. I now realize that the game room is pool tables and shuffle board. I am guessing the arcade is separate, and that the video games probably cost money. Is this correct? Sorry, just trying to get a rough idea of how much spending money will be needed. Thanks.

jencant40
The hockey and foosball tables are included. There is a purchase price for the XBox--$3/30 minutes and a time must be reserved. The dancing and driving games require 4 tokens ($1/4 tokens). This is subject to change, but it will give you a rough idea on what to budget for.
LaurenCC
I never saw any real "arcade" just the pool tables and ping pong. I traveled with 6 kids ages 5-18 and no one ever missed the fact that there was no arcade since there was plenty of activities to keep them all busy. This is a great FAMILY resort. The beach and the pool are gorgeous!! All of the kids made plenty of friends on the first day and they all had a ball. Food is just average though-I highly recommend making reservations at the specialty restaurants. All are free except for the teppanyaki which is $20 pp (kids 12 and under are free). Definitely worth the money-it was excellent! Also be sure ALL of the guys bring long pants you want to eat at the Italian restaurant (jeans are OK)

Which building has an ocean view?4 answers
I saw the place has a couple buildings. Does somebody know which building has an ocean view?
3 months ago
D.Memic
You'll want to look at the room categories. The Superior room offers a partial ocean view and the Jr Suite offers either a garden or partial ocean view; however, the Deluxe room may give you a better view of the ocean. It will not be ocean front, but it will be more than what a partial ocean view would offer you.
LaurenCC
I was in building 4 in could see the ocean from my room
phillyfatz
The resort has 7 bldgs, and I am certain that five, six and seven all had ocean views upon booking as such. I can not speak for blgs 1-4.
BMRinPA
Every building has ocean view rooms depending on where you get put. It is the luck of the draw if you book a standard room. I've been to the resort 5 times and been pretty lucky with the view. I actually got a better view when I booked a standard room than when I paid extra for ocean view

Queens, NY
Rooms are assigned upon check-in at the resort and the room location is based upon the resort's current availability. Please be advised that it does cost additional to receive a room category with an ocean view.
MariaCC
Probably buildings 5,6 or 7 would provide a better experience.
NamVet
For a quieter room, I would suggest 5, 6 or 7. They are furthest from the main areas with the stage and daytime music activities. And they are closest to the adult beach.
BMRinPA
Buildings 4,5,6, and 7 are on the adult end of the resort. The lower room numbers are the farthest from the ocean but I'm not sure how high the number has to be to get an ocean view in those buildings. We had a nice ocean view in building 1 in rooms #1233 and #1331

What is the difference between deluxe all inclusive and deluxe all inclusive extravaganza?
2 months ago
St. Louis MO
The extravaganza rooms are typically available at lower prices. It is always smart to check to see if there are any Added Values, because the extravaganza rooms will not always be eligible for certain promotions (if it doesn't state the room category in the added values, be sure to confirm the rate codes). Aside from that, the room at the resort is the same between the two categories.

You receive a true queen or king size bed and a bit more living space. The standard rooms are a bit tight and the washroom is very small and has a split door with no locks. All are extremely clean.

The beach area as well as the island were very nice...sand was raked every morning...and always kept clean! Plenty of beach chairs that were quite comfortable. Water was warm...and we walked to the island without getting our swim suits wet...knee deep water. Also saw small fish and folks doing scuba diving looking at the coral and fish. Great beach for the kids as well as people watchers.
The SunSpree brought in local vendors several nights and their was shopping just off the property but it was very hot getting there with little shade...very hot...and half way there we turned around and came back to the SunSpree.

There are many small beaches within an easy walk on the premises. The water is warm and shallow, however there is a lot of wind there.
Some people walked across the street to street vendors but they regularly sell right at the resort...don't forget to bargain!
We had a family of 4 adults and 2 children and investigated going to the Falls or swimming with the dolphins....each would have cost us $300 so we skipped it and just stayed at the resort.
We did take advantage of the Hobbie Cat sail boat which they crew and take you out for a 15 minute sail...kids loved it.

Don't drive its IS too difficult due to differences in driving side. Roads r winding and narrow. Not enough directional signs to guide u. Please book excursion so u can sit back on relax and have a tour guide teach u about the island. It is too stressful to drive.

Holiday Inn Sunspree at Montego Bay: Enjoy Great Fun and Great Deals
Dreaming of warm sun on your face and sand between your toes? Explore
Holiday Inn Sunspree in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Just five minutes from Sangster
International Airport, the Sunspree offers a fabulous all-inclusive Caribbean
experience. This beachfront property comes complete with a half-mile,
sugar-sand beach perfect for soaking up the rays. It features great activities
for kids of all ages too! We think mom and dad will appreciate that one of the
two pools, with a swim-up bar, is for adults only. And while kids are rockin'
it up in the Kidspree Vacation Club, we suggest their parents try out the
honey-ginger body scrub at Sol Mer Spa and Salon.
Get ready to wake up the water lover in you. The Holiday Inn Sunspree offers
kayaking, snorkeling and pedal boating activities in the crystal-clear water.
But, if you're looking for dry-land fun, check out the four lighted tennis
courts, nine-hole miniature golf course, on-site casino, or state-of-the-art
game room with pool tables, volleyball and basketball courts.
When it's time to eat, there's plenty to choose from at the six restaurants
at Holiday Inn Sunspree Montego Bay. For an elegant Italian meal, Sorrento is
your place, or if it's pizza that's calling your name, the pizza buffet at
Portside Buffet Restaurant is the place to be. If you want to really catch the
Jamaican vibe, nothing beats dining at Sea Breeze, where the Caribbean fusion
menu is served beachside, accompanied by soft breezes and murmuring waves. And
introducing Kenko, a Japanese Restaurant featuring the Teppanyaki a la carte
dining concept. Kenko provides full waiter service and an exquisitely full menu
of unique Asian fare.
While in Montego Bay, don't miss the fabulous tours and attractions not too
far from Holiday Inn Sunspree Montego Bay. Dunn's River Falls is known
