Visualize this: you awake after a sublime night's sleep on a just-soft-enough mattress. You walk out on your balcony and look to the horizon: there's not a thing but hue after hue of heavenly blue. You take a deep breath, then give yourself a pinch, then say out loud, "Am I really here in all this beyond-my-imagination-island-perfection?"

My 3rd visit
Secrets St James has been my go to place for R&R. For me the short ride to the airport is important. I've been to other cities in Jamaica and the rides to/from the facility is often hours.
The rooms are always clean, the staff polite & friendly.
The food is fantastic & while the drinks are on the "lite" side with regard to the amount of alcohol, let Karrie Ann (preferred club pool) know you enjoy the taste of rum and she will make certain your drink will be stronger.
I love the preferred club pool which offers quiet when I want to sit back relax and read, yet if I want to be in a more festive place I go to the other pools which have activities and loud music.
The beach is beautiful and starting your day with a kayak ride sets the pace for the day.

Small but intimate
We enjoyed our stay at the St James, very clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful, Alvin at the pool bar was so much fun. The resort is smaller and more intimate than some of the other resorts we stayed at but shares a common eating/shopping/beaches with the wild orchid and breathless, so the complex is very large. If you are in the preferred club I recommend going to breathless for the roof top bar. The food for the most part was ok but I fell like it’s never amazing at any resort like this, but the jerk chicken cart on the beach daily was amazing! The check in process was a little slow, they only had 3 people to check you in, in a small room but they had someone serving you drinks while we waited. We had a garden view but when we asked if we could upgrade they upgraded us to a pool/ocean view room at no charge. The room was spacious very comfortable and clean. Beaches were very clean, no shortage of bars and water stations set up along the beach. We really enjoyed our time at St James.
This place was great cleaning service was good rooms were perfect and the food was great we can’t ask for anything better than this place 5 star all the way I definitely will be back pool was clean the beaches were clean The entertainment was awesome always something to do top shelf liquor was a big plus the staff was nice always asking if we needed anything specially the lobby bar her nickname was mama and she took very good care of us I know this is all inclusive with no tipping but I definitely tipped a lot Because we had great service

how was the beach? is it stunning?11 answers
is there local shopping such as street vendors so you get the jamaican feel or very commercial?
8 years, 100 months ago

Beach is GREAT! Large, palm trees everywhere. Very good snorkeling off the pier and the north part of the complex. clean beaches, pools a few steps away. white sand. definitely some of the better beaches from what we've seen at other resorts.
Shopping- the new area has a great shopping area, and nightly themed open-air bazaars- very well done. But for the real thing, head up to Playa del Carmen (GO IN EVENING- not as hot) for great shopping a local vibe.
turtleboy
I wouldn't classify the beach at the Conrad as "stunning" but it was nice, small and a bit rocky and it was actually a lagoon.
Loly
There are some shops and tabbacco shop. There is wood carvers on the beach and on weekends are crowded with vendors on the sidewalk walking to the restaurants.
Kwood
The resort has craft folks come in on Wed night and they bring a good assortment of items. Wood carving seems to be the local craft, lots of animals and Bob Marleys. You will find better prices in Montego Bay and at the craft village if you venture off the resort. There are also shops in the resort which are nice better priced higher. Craft village had the best prices if you are good at negotiating and do not become overwhelmed by the women trying to get you into their "shops." I think the thing to remember wherever you buy is that these people have a high cost of living and they work hard. You are their source of income and if you feel you have paid a fair price then you have done well.
sandyktoo
We did not go shopping outside of the resort, but one evening local vendors were selling their items at the resort and the prices were outrageous! We ended up not buying anything! You would have to take an excursion and we didn't feel like spending an entire day shopping!
dmthomas
Rose Hall had better beaches
AWJennings
We went last week and thought the beach was beautiful. However, that could be a matter of opinion. The water is a beautiful aqua color and perfectly clear. The beach is a fine off-white sand. The grounds are beautifully landscaped.
We did not leave the resort property so I cannot speak to your question regarding local shopping.
Canyonkiva
the beach is probably the worst , so many rocks . couple of vendors by the pool but that is about it
redskins1217
the resort brings in locals to display their wares on certain nights. There are a few set up on the resort too that do carvings. This is not very commercial. There is a strip off the beach near the restaurants that offer high end stuff too. This resort is well maintained, very slow pace and no pressure

WHEN YOU SEE IT YOU FALL IN LOVE ND NEVER WANNA GET OUT
MRTHOMAS40
I LOVED the beach!! I think most beaches in the Caribbean are stunning!! The beach is very large and has many sections to it since the resort has 4 parts ( 2 regular sides, 2 preferred sides). There were some small rocky sections but not intolerable and if you were to wear water shoes, you would be fine but all you really have to do is move about 4-5 feet down the beach and there weren't any rocks. Jellyfish season is occurring right now though, we were there 8/31/13-9/4/13, and there were a lot of them, moreso in the early morning and late, late afternooon..people and lifeguards removing them from the water.

Should I bring my own snorkeling gear to Secrets St. James in Montego Bay?11 answers
Just wondering how the snorkeling is from beach access.
8 years, 99 months ago
Cape Cod Travelers
You may want to bring your own snorkeling gear with you, as there is no snorkeling gear available on property. There is snorkeling available nearby, but that would be at an additional cost.
KristinCC
No, there was equipment there, free.
raadoe
We didn't snorkle but you could see the fish by looking down in the water. There really weren't any exotic fish and they gathered by the rocks so you can just look at them by standing up and they were really small. Other guests that wanted to snorkle went on an excursion, but we did not know how that turned out.
dmthomas
gear at the resort nothing fancy if you go on a snorkeling day trip better equipment provided.
MommyEsq
YES. They have only 3 -4 scheduled trips per day where they take you out in a supervised group around in a designated area. You cannot check out gear and go on your own when you want. But you will see amazing fish and sea life among the reefs very close to shore.
beachygal
We did take our own snorkeling gear and did quite a bit of snorkeling around the beach area. There wasn't as much marine life as I expected. We just went and it is their hurricane season. I don't know if that played a role or not.
Canyonkiva
We didn't end up snorkeling, despite the resort saying it's free they do not have snorkel gear to be used. The free thing is a guided trip off the beach 3 times a day, at 10 11 and 2, which books up fast. If you have your own gear bring it, you can't rent it there from the resort (just individuals that work there, which we thought was weird). They offer snorkeling trips to other parts of the island/off a boat which would be better then the areas just off the beach. However there is definitely some stuff to be seen off the beach.
sheilay
The snorkeling is awesome. You can swim right from the beach and encouter a load of fish. You can bring your own or it is available there too.

THEY HAD THEM OUT THERE PUT YOUR NAME ON THE LIST FOR THE TIME YOU WANNA SNORKEL LOL I SUCKED WATER KEPT GETTING IN BUT SO MUCK FUN FOR MY FIRST TIME

They offer gear there.

They do free half hour excursions twice a day and one that is about $40US for an hour. Both types include gear, so you don't have to bring your own.

Can someone describe the beds on the balconies? Are there beds on the beach also8 answers
I'd love to see any pictures of the beds on the balconies or beach. We stayed in a Real resort in Cancun that had the bed on the beach. It was by far our favorite thing about the resort.
8 years, 99 months ago
Teri
There are beds on the beach & by the pool. The balconies just have plastic patio furniture, unless you are on the ground floor, which had the same ratan furniture as the upper pool deck.
emenchho
In our room we did not have any beds on our balconies. There were no beds on the beach on our side of the resort (we did not stay on the preferred side), but there was a fee to lay on one of the beds that was all the way out on the rocks overlooking the ocean.
dmthomas
No bed on the beach, but rather, the equivelant of a chaise lounge. No complaints. In the preferred suits, there are jacuzzis on the balconies with private entrance to a private pool which has a portion on your balcony. Very posh rooms.

Raphael1214
there are much more couples there. But i did some groups of women there also. but i think its more for couples because everything is so romantic
steponme
I think this is definitely a couples resort. But.. I think a group of girls would still have fun. There's really only one or 2 "night life" spots, though, so it might be worth looking at some more singles-oriented resorts if you looking for a good night life.
Mollysam920
best for couples

saw alot of single groups

Group of girls is fine...you just may not see a group of guys..I just returned after taking my sister there to celebrate her 60th birthday. We had an asweome time!

Are there any restrictions as far as womens swimwear is concerned?10 answers
7 years, 94 months ago
ed
The resort requires bathing suits to be worn on the premises and they do not allow au natural sunbathing. As far as restrictions regarding the type of swim wear that can be worn, I would say a good rule of thumb would be that as long as the important parts are covered you should be fine.
ccsusan1
no none
shoodygirl
It looked to us like a swimsuit was required but we saw bikinis and thongs so the type didn't seem to matter.

Should we stay at st. James or wild orchid?11 answers
My husband and I are going to montego bay in January. I can't decide which of the two secrets to stay at. Help!
7 years, 87 months ago
Sandy
The Secrets St. James and the Secrets Wild Orchid share the same amenities between each property. We have been advised by returning guests that the Secrets St. James is slightly quieter. The St. James portion of the property does house the spa for both properties. The Wild Orchid portion of the property holds the majority of the restaurants, the night club, and a pool that hosts daily activities. Your preference for quiet, or to be close to the action can be a factor in making your decision.
MellissaCC
I don't think it really matters. The only difference I saw is that the restaurants are more on the Wild Orchid side but it is so beautiful there that who wouldn't want to walk 5 extra steps?!
stolarfreed
I don't know what the rooms at Wild Orchid look like, but the room we stayed in at St. James was very nice, comfy, quiet and romantic. I can tell you that the resorts are side by side in the same area and they share the same restaurants, entertainment/game area and shops which are all located on the Wild Orchid side of the resorts so it is busier in that area. If you do stay in the St. James resort you do have a 5 - 10 minute stroll to get to eat , shop and play, but we preferred it that way.
beachygal
Sandy, you will love it. The St. James and the Wild Orchid are two side-by-side resorts that are on the same property. Their entrances are maybe 100 feet from each other. Staying at either one entitles you to participate in any activity at either resort. The spa is closer to the St. James. The restaurants, indoor and outdoor theaters are closer to the Wild Orchid. That said, they are all within a short walking distance from anywhere on the property. We wondered if the St. James might be a little quieter during the evenings since the outdoor theater hosted a number of bands with evening perfomances.
If you walk along the beach behind one you end up at the beach behind the other.
Canyonkiva
Both St James and Wild Orchid are the same rooms. It is well kept and a great resort. However, I would not book thru CheapCaribbean as they are not Customer Support driven.
Warm
I can't say too much about Wild Orchid because we actually stayed at St. James. They are right next to each other and you can visit both pools no matter where you stay. Our room in St. James was very nice but I don't know how it stacks up to Wild Orchid? The only difference is the room so try to find out more about that. You have the same access to everything else no matter which one you stay in
Bostonguy
Honestly they both share all of the resort, so choose either one! St James is to the left closer to the Spa & Gym, where the Wild Orchid is closer to the eateries and the entertainment.
fifteenyears
i like st. james because its a little more distant from the "ammentities" of the resort- basically its a little more quiet.
lillyVonTrapp
go to a different resort
redskins1217
I stayed at the St. James side (whch was a little less expensive). You have access to both resorts. The Wild Orchid side has most of the entertainment going on at night, so if you want a more quiet vacation, you'd want to stay at St. James so you don't hear the outdoor live entertainment. The resorts are so close together, that to me, there's no reason to stay on the Wild Orchid side. The stroll between the two is beautiful, so it makes for a nice short walk.
FloridaIslandGirl
THEY TOGETHER ST.JAMES IS WHERE WE STAYED BUT ALL PARTY'S AND FOODS ARE THE THE WILD ORCHID IT'S ALOT TO DO
MRTHOMAS40
Wild Orchid! I was disappointed I was at St. James. Everything and I do mean everything is on the Wild Orchid end all the restaurants and all but 1 bar. All the nightlife. Only the SPA is at St. James. And the walk from St. James to the other end is hot and tiring!!!

What is the advantage of booking the "Preferred" suite?11 answers
Is it worth booking the preferred suite vs the standard suite? What are the differences?
6 years, 84 months ago
mckowndo
The preferred club offers upgraded amenities and services such as complimentary internet access in-suite, private concierge service and exquisite deserts and liquor in the Preferred Club lounge.
KateHCC
Go preferred. The building might be the same but you get added staff and food in your own lobby all day long. The preferred pool is quiet and has GREAT service.
Lindyloo
we stayed in the Preferred Club at St James - it seemed to be a quieter section of rooms, had less "loud" entertainment at night and during the day. Also there is a soak tub on the balcony (not a huge incentive). Lastly there is additional food in the lounge all day and until 10pm at night, great for snacking or a full meal. Mostly finger sandwiches and little things like that but also a small breakfast buffet and dessert all the time. There is also many liquor bottles out for you to make drinks (not a bar with a bartender) - though we didn't find booze hard to find at any point.
sheilay
The preferred has much better pool chairs and the couch and bed are better too. They also have snacks and drinks both alcoholic and non all day in a room right off the doorways. You also get free WiFi which sometimes works and sometimes doesn't . They charge you $15 per day otherwise for it.
JustinsDee
prefferred means you have access to different lounges, far softer towels, and different beach access. its a toss whether or not its worth it.
lillyVonTrapp
while there I really couldn't see an advantage..other than a different building and different color towel...same amenities and room make up
sweat
go standard --prefered is a joke
redskins1217
Definitely.
Preferred club you get free wifi, 24 hour bar and food in the lobby, free room service, advantage of all the pools on the property, with the exception that no one other than preferred club members can come to your pool. So when you want a private, relaxing day at the pool with no balls being thrown from games they're playing, the preferred pools are the place to be for peace and quite.
jarjarjd
THE FLOOR AND THE VIEW JUST LET THEM NO WHAT YOU WANT
MRTHOMAS40
The advantage is room on the upper floors, access to the preferred club and pool
kevin11121
Save your monies. You will have a 5th of vodka, rum and brandy in your room, but you get all you want at the many bars on the 2 resorts. The preferred lounge is small and has a few appetizers and make it yourself drinks. They did not keep the breakfast items stocked you had to keep asking for them to bring more.

Is room service included at no extra charge? Also is the jerk chicken cart also included? Also, what are the food differences between regular guest and preferred?
6 years, 79 months ago
NYC
Your room service is included, as well as, the rest of your food and drinks at the resort. There aren't any food differences between what regular guests and preferred guests are offered (everyone has access to the same restaurants); however, if you choose a Preferred Club room, you'll get even more great perks, including private check-in/out, private pool, concierge service, upgraded bath amenities and Internet access in your room.
LaurenCC
Room service is included at no extra charge however service is poor. Our sheets were never changed, dirty glasses not replaced, etc. The Jerk chicken cart is included and was the best food I had. No food differences between regular and preferred
Hank1
yes , but they do expect tip . the cart has good chicken but do tip. do not know difference but prefered is a waste just walk into buiidng and use evreything -no one checks
redskins1217
The room service is only included on the preferred side. The breakfast room service is the best.
The jerk chicken cart is included. Go to the barefoot grill- that place is awesome.
A regular guest are in a different building on both the St James side and Wild Orchid side. Preferred can go in any pools and also has their own private pool that you can swim in. You have to have your room key with you, especially during the weekends b/c they check to see if you have a preferred key when you're on the preferred side. You get free room service when you're a preferred club. At the preferred club, you have a bar and food there 24 hours, free wifi on the preferred side. It's worth the extra money to be on the preferred side.
jarjarjd
Room service is included at no extra charge order whatever you want off the menu and they do not charge you anything extra. Yes the jerk chicken cart on the beach is also included. Also the food at all the restaurants is included at no extra charge order anything off the menu tell your room number and they do not charge you. I do not think there is no food difference between regular guest and preferred the difference is in the rooms not the room. I stayed in the preferred rooms.
bluered3
yes room service is included, the jerk chicken guy is included and don't waste your money on the preferred, there is no real difference. I have been here twice in two months (very unusual for me) and I loved it both times.

FloridaIslandGirl

MRTHOMAS40
Rooms service is included 24 hours and so is the jerk cart. Preferred club gets extra perks like a tub on your patio , upgraded liquor and a private area with appetizers and desserts out daily. You also get use if a private pool if you want relaxation instead of games and music all the time. However, you have access to any pool. We thought it was well worth the extra money. We were waited in hand and foot and they did a great job!
Domino
There is no charge for room service or jerk chicken! We didn't see any difference in food choices.
BigBamboo2013
Yes room service, mini fridge snacks and drinks are included. Food is same preferred or non.

BILLCC
You can use the coupons towards spa services, romantic dinner and wine bottle purchases. No doubling of coupons though meaning one coupon per service. They want you to use a service more than once.
FUTUREMrsCharles
Really the only good ones are for the spa and bottles of wine. You can use them in increments of 40 a person for spa, and 10 off bottles of wine, cannot combine them though
TheHatfieldFamily
The coupons are for the spa and for the romantic beach dinner. Pretty much useless.
SteveNmarlene
$10 off a bottle of wine, $40 off spa treatments, $40 off romantic dinner
Lgwulf65
We got coupons for wine bottles - $10 off, but if you have the preferred club, that includes some wines, so this is only good if you want something off the wine list.
There were coupons for the spa. like $40 off, but the spa services were INSANELY high. I believe we were quoted $175 for a 50 minute Swedish massage and $165 for a 50 minute neck and shoulder massage. If you go to their presentation for the Repeaters Club, 90 minutes, they will give you an extra $100 in coupons. I think you just let them know you will be using coupons when you make the appointment.
Lia182xox
They can be used towards the Spa, the romantic candle light dinner and their wine list. There is a set limit you can spend on each category. Example, we had $200 in resort coupons and only $80 could be spent at the Spa and had to be in $40, $20, $20 increments and can't be combined.

They will give you $100 to the spa BUT it is in $40, $40, $20, you cannot use the full $100 at one time. I think it was $20 for wine, but again, $10 and $10. Cannot remember the others
LRTexas
The coupons can be used for spa services and food from the restaurants
Cherrybabe80
The coupons can be used at the Spa, to purchase bottles of wine (wine by the glass is included, but not bottles), or for a romantic dinner.

Do men have to wear dress pants in restaurants?11 answers
6 years, 75 months ago
Green bay
The restaurants which are Casual Elegance, the resort requires sneakers, tennis shoes or dress sandals (no flip-flops). Long pants or shorts and dress shirts with sleeves are required for men. For more information regarding the dress code, we do suggest checking directly on the resort's website, https://www.secretsresorts.com/st-james-montego-bay.
MariaCC
Yes or dress shorts
ACHarley13
Only at the French restaurant. And it's really more so long pants just no shorts or jeans.
MsSmoveop2
Nope this is a very casual place
Momsworking
Even though the dress code for the restaurants stated that pants were required for men, I saw several there without. Since we opted to sit outside most of the time, I never wore pants, just shorts with casual shoes. I even wore shorts when we ate inside the World Cafe and Blue Mountain restaurants. I also saw some men with flip flops on. I was never questioned once about wearing shorts.
TonyB2264
Only to the Asian and French
RobH1
In the Bordeau Resturant inside only
Katina
It depends. One restaurant requires dress pants; however, sometimes the person at the door will relax the policy if you tell them you only brought shorts.
L4LIFE
It is more casual than advertised. In most formal restaurants men just need to wear pants and shirt with color and no sandals. Women appeared in shorts and sandals but many did wear dresses.
Bgourley
Only to one of them, very leanient on that rule though

Only at the french restaurant and only if you dine inside. Outside dining is casual.

The email address from the resort's website to contact them directly is info.sesmb@secretsresorts.com.

Anything you can imagine
TheHatfieldFamily
Red Stripe and Red Stripe Light on draft but they have other flavors in bottles and cans, i.e., Miller Lite.
OneLoveJamaica
Red Stripe & Red Stripe light draft. Heineken in a bottle in the lobby bar. Most top shelf liquor, except tequila at all the lobby bars.
Lgwulf65
The beer selection is mostly Jamaican beer such as Red Strip but the sprit selection is massive. When you go try a Rum Punch, Bob Marley or Purple Rain.
MotleyFamily
They have an extensive bar selection - so you can get top shelf liquor... I had grey goose martinis. They also carried a variety of Appleton Jamaican rums which were good. Sometimes, a certain bar would be out of a specific liquor, but there are several bars bear each other.
The only beer I noticed was red stripe. No idea what other options there were.
Lia182xox
Red Stripe and that is it and at none of the 10 bars we tried was it cold. Cheap liquor. One time I asked for additional rum and they got a different bottle: of lesser quality. Stingy with the booze!!!!
Mmariner
Some what limited. Red stripe beer on tap. Only one red and white wine is included. Wouldn't make sangria for me.

Do they offer transportation to Dunns River Falls?11 answers
5 years, 65 months ago
Reb
If you do the excursion to Dunns River Falls they provide the transportation but I don't know about just going on your own. We went there on the excursion and it was amazing, it is definitely a must do! But it is a long trip from Montego Bay to Dunns River which is in Ocho Rios, it took us about 2 hours to get there but we stopped and picked up people from 5 other resorts on the way.
Clinton12
Yes, there is an on site travel company arranging pre-packaged and custom trips to anywhere on the island. Some appeared to be reasonable in cost
Bgourley
Excursions for Dunn's Rivers Falls can be purchased during the booking process of your CheapCaribbean.com vacation package or with the tour company while in destination.
MariaCC
Yes
TheHatfieldFamily
Yes, but that is considered an excursion so there is a price per person charge.
OneLoveJamaica
Yes, through AMSTAR and Chukka tours. Great trip!
SteveNmarlene
No, you can book an excursion or rent a very expensive taxi.
Lgwulf65
You can buy an excursion that includes transportation, It is about a half hour away. Warning, Dunns River Falls is more of an amusement park and less of a natural/beautiful site to visit... cab will run about $100US round trip before entrance to the falls.
Lia182xox
Yes. Very expensive. Stay at a resort closer to falls.

Yes, they offer great tours that are reasonably priced through AmStar, who have reps at the front desk every day 8:30-5PM.

What does it mean by deluxe accomadations?4 answers
It states in the all inclusive deal the is deluxe accommodation's of your choice. What does that mean/ include?
4 years, 58 months ago
Flint, MI
The deluxe accommodations refers to the room category you book. The resort offers either Junior Suite Ocean View or Preferred Club Junior Suite Ocean View. Preferred Club rooms offer added amenities.
KristenCC
the room views are spectacular
the rooms are very clean and the food and drink are top shelf and unlimited
nicktel
From our experience - I think it is just how they describe their resort. There aren't varieties of accommodations, just different floors (so different views). The only difference is from their regular hotel rooms and their Preferred areas - but our "regular" room was really lovely (just like the resort photos) with balcony (table and chairs), sitting area (couch and chairs), king-size 4-poster bed, large bathroom with shower and Jacuzzi tub, etc.

This hotel does not provide transportation to and from the airport. Transportation can be purchased through our partner Amstar when booking a package on our site. There are 3 types of transportation offered. Shared transportation which rides with multiple guest for $18.00 per person. Private transportation for 1-2 guests for $50.00 per person. Private transportation for 3-7 guests for $87.50 per person. There are multiple vendors for transportation besides Amstar and also cab drivers. We highly recommended using a professional vendor such as Amstar.

Jet Ski rentals are not available at the resort. You can check with the concierge upon arrival to see if there is any place near by that offers rentals.

You will only get top shelf at night, not during the day at the pool, so be aware of that! We are kind of liquor snobs, because we don't like hangovers, so we were a little disappointed by that. At night you can get GG, Ketel, and Ciroc, I know that, but you HAVE to specify!

How far is the walk from the st. James suites to the restaurants?8 answers
I have seen that there is a bit of a walk from St. James to the restaurants and nightly entertainment. How far is that walk? Would it be worth it to stay at the Wild Orchid?
4 years, 55 months ago
Dylan
The resort is built in a way that the restaurants are within comfortable walking distance from any portion of the property. You may always request a room close to that area during the booking process and the resort will do their best to accommodate based on availability.
SalCC
To be honest with you Secrets St. James and Secrets Wild Orchid are the EXACT same resorts located right next to each other. I would stay at whichever hotel has the cheaper rate as they are the same. The walk to the restaurants are probably a "city block" from St James. Not a far walk at all! Besides, you can walk right along the ocean to get to the restaurants, which can be very romantic!
Pack4life
5 min everything is close its great
matteomia
Yes! Although it is not a long, long walk from the St. James to the dining and entertainment venues, the WO is much closer to most all of them.
willbeback
I didn't look at the price differences of the two, however it was not that far at all. You have to walk there for the breakfast buffet every morning as well. I would say it is 3 minutes, tops.
Beachblonde7
The walk is about an extra 200 yards depending on what part of St. James they put you in. It was nice, since we stayed at Wild Orchid, to stroll few feet and be at the center of food area and entertainment.

Does the resort have a lively feel - particularly at night?5 answers
My boyfriend and I have been to Secrets Capri in Riveira Maya and it felt like everything shut down at 10pm each night. We are not looking for a crazy wild party scene, but not a completely dead scene either. We also have been to the Excellence in Punta Cana. We enjoyed the nightly entertainment and people culminating around a bar past midnight. We are hoping Secrets St. James will be more similar to the Excellence rather than Secrets Capri. Thanks!
4 years, 54 months ago
Jess
Secrets St James, is more of a quieter resort. If you are looking for more entertainment, Secrets Wild Orchid next door, may be a good idea for you!
KristenCC
Secrets St. James and Secrets Wild Orchard were definitely lively at night. The party went on until at least 11-11:30 pm at the Piano Bar. There were sing-alongs that looked like a lot of fun. The entertainment was excellent! I would say it was more like Excellence in Punta Cana.
We enjoyed dancing outdoors to the music of the Resident Band and even a "Secrets Got Talent Show," both were fun for couples of all ages that were there. Movies were available outdoors on the giant screen and a 11 pm snack was even put out for all in case you were hungry! This place was amazing, not wild, just fun.
Celebrating30YearsCDWood
The piano player at the piano bar (one of the main attractions, and right in the middle of all dining options) doesn't even start till ten, and there is a little club that opens at 10 as well. We want on our last night for about an hour, and it was good fun. We aren't late nighters either, especially after drinking all day at the pool, but it was a fun time.
Most people are sitting at a big outdoor patio by the restaurants until pretty late, so you won't see everything shut down at 10.

Do the restaurants offer vegan options?7 answers
4 years, 54 months ago

They do offer vegetarian options, if you have any concerns about vegan meals, you can speak with the chefs upon arrival to go over any dietary needs.
KristenCC
there are many options for food, and there were many options for meatless dishes, however, you can write to the secrets resort and ask them directly.
Tobyrescue
They do have a few vegan options on the breakfast buffet, but if you're wanting a vegan-friendly menu, I never saw one or heard it offered (or gluten-free for that matter.)
I will say that there were 4-6 options at all the restaurants we dined as far as entrees, so there's always the potential to customize those....
Beachblonde7
yes
krystalion
I don't know
Sophomore
Not really. There are disclaimers that the food is not vegan or gluten free.
Cheryll
While not a vegan myself, having some good friends that are, I always take notice. Answer is they do not- on the menu, but if you talk to someone when you arrive about your needs, they did seem to accommodate requests quite well. The buffet is quite extensive, so you will always have a security blanket!
NewHampshire80
At the resteraunts they ask you what allergies you have. and there are many buffet choices for breakfast and lunch that should have vegan on the buffets but the menu at the restaurant didn't seem to have vegan only options. they may can accommodate off the menu.

My general rule of thumb is $100 per day. Depends on how many people you are paying for as well. I have 2 children and that $100 goes a long way. If your food and drink are included that is strictly spending money and should be more than enough for you

We just returned from a week at Secrets Wild Orchid and had a fantastic vacation there!...and although tipping is not, by any means, required, it was very much appreciated by the wait staff and bartenders and housekeeping staff, etc. My husband and I routinely gave small tips to staff for their services, and although I cannot verify cause & effect, we DID receive excellent service from one & all!!

We are a family of 4 and brought $400 US. We spent it all and needed a tad more.

We also bought some souvenirs, which you can get A LOT cheaper off resort. Hope this helps!

We did not use the spa but brought $100 in ones to tip. 5's to tip at dinner. Usually tipped $1 during during service and a couple for breakfast and lunch then left $5 for dinner. Some did not tip at all and others more.
SandK991
we were there at St James for 10 days and spent probably 3-400 american dollars, depends on how many excursion and trinkets you purchase to take home.
rollerboykevin49
I always take 100.00 in one dollar bills for my week long trip for tipping. This allows us to tip the maid each day, luggage to and from airport, excursion driver, 1 - 4 dollars at breakfast, dinner, and pool bar / beach waiter. Vendor night is on wed at the resort for knick knacks, and these items are negotiable. Coffee expensive 27.00everywhere. Rum cheap! 14.00 excursions run into some money 120.00 - 200.00 per person for all day, depending on event.
Conster
Tipping is included but most people bring dollar bills for tips for bartenders and poolside waiters/waitresses. We brought about $50 for that purpose but came back with about $20. That is because I found the servers at poolside a bit slow.

The dress code is vacation casual. Women can get away with just about anything. Men need to wear shirts preferably with short sleeves. I have seen them stricter in Mexico than here
Beachrunner
Just no swimsuits or swim shorts. Most of the seats are cloth so they do not want to get them wet.
BamaBorn
Yes they just ask to wear a cover up. You will not be allowed in the restaurants with a bathing suit on.

What are the criteria for the dress codes at the restaurants?4 answers
I noticed that the reviews said some of the restaurants on the resort have dress codes. I was wondering what the dress code criteria were so I could know what to pack for the trip.

Men can wear shorts and eat outside at some restaurants and no open toed shoes and no sleeve-less shirts...but to eat inside, men will need to wear pants. Women can wear pretty much whatever they want! And if they go in their swimsuit...they have to be wearing a cover up and not have their shoulders exposed.
ChrisA334422
Only one of the restaurants required getting dressed more than your casual attire. Most of the others you're fine with a cover up for the ladies. Shirts are required in all dining facilities.
Joerevilo
Buffets for breakfast and dinner sleeved shirts (no cutoffs) and shorts. Basically cant were your bathing suits. Dinners you could wear polos and shorts. I would at least wear jeans/khakis or you look like a bum. The French and Italian restaurant are Business Casual. Women wore summer dresses or jeans and a nice shirt.

Is there a golf cart or tram that goes between St. James and Wild Orchid?5 answers
The two resorts look pretty big between the two of them so I was wondering if they had a tram because most large resorts I've been to have had them. Also does one side seem better than the other or are they basically the exact same?
3 years, 38 months ago
Erika C.
The Hotel is big but not that big as to need a tram or golf cart to around. They have golf carts and you can call the staff to come and pick you up if you don't feel like walking. But its really not necessary. All the restaurants and entertainment is on the Wild Orchid side and the beach access is the on the St. James side. So it just depends on which one you want to easiest access too. I believe they are all the same while the Wild Orghid rooms are suites and having bigger units. But they all have the same superior ammenities.
ChrisA334422
The main difference between the two is that St.James is the quieter resort while Wild Orchid is more of a party resort. As for transportation between the two, there isn't any specific tram car, however you may be able to arrange some sort of transportation, i.e, golf cart, with the front desk.
JeannieCC
The two resorts are within a few feet of one another; no golf carts necessary.
MrWiggles
They do not. The resort is not that large plus every room has a golf sized umbrella in case of rain.
Def go St. James because you can use Wild Orchid pool and beach.
HoneymoonBliss
I saw people riding golf carts, but they seemed to have mobility issues. It's a 7 min walk from one end to the other tops.
The preferred st james has the best beach, The proffered wild orchid had the only working hot tub. But all the food is near the wild orchid. If you are preferred you can use the beach anywhere.

I went there when it rained all 5 days. I learned the rain pattern (normally down poured after 4pm) and planned my day accordingly. I would wake up early to go to the beach and stayed in the pools while it rained (it remained 87 degrees). Some activities were canceled (outdoor theater, beach party) but the bars, club and everything else remained open.
Essie
There is always a chance of scattered afternoon showers there. It only rained one afternoon for us and we took that hour to go eat lunch in one of the restaurants. Then we sat in the hot tub on our balcony until it was dry enough to go back out on the beach.

The main differences are the decor and where the spa is located. If you have any further questions or need help booking, please call and speak to one of our Beachologists at 1-800-915-2322.
TimCC
Wild Orchid does have more of the restaurants and shops. We stayed on the St. James side, it was a short maybe 3-5 minute walk to the other side.
AMJ323
Guest on propery said styling and price were the major differences. if you stay as a preferred Guest you get the most access of anyone at the resort. I stayed at secrets and was able to use the beach on the wild orchid side. The major difference I saw between the two resorts is that wild orchid has options for rooms that open up straight to personal pools connected to their hotel rooms.

Natztay
They do have a sauna, use does come at an additional cost.
JeannieCC
The Spa has a full Hydro center which includes a steamroom, dry sauna, wet sauna and pool. If you only want to use the Hydro center I believe it was $35 however if you purchase a spa treatment it is complementary they ask you show up one hour before your service to use it
ElleBell
Yes, there is a sauna. They sell different packages there and you can bargain with them for a fair price. Their spa was one of the most extensive I have ever seen: steam room, dry sauna, essential oil sauna, hot tubs, jacuzzis, whirlpools, jet massagers, Ice baths, different temperature showers, swedish massages, hot stone massages, deep tissue massages, sports massages, facials, hair and etc. So much I can hardly remember it all.
TampaTony
It does have a sauna. However you can use it for $35/day. However, it is free if you schedule any treatments.

The pools tend to close around sundown, however hours can vary. Please contact the resort for the schedule for your dates of travel.
JeannieCC
I don't think the pools actually close. They do have hours for life guards but the sign says to swim at your own risk outside of those hours.
PaulieLolly
6PM is when the bar closes at the pool, but you can use the pool's after that at time.
JamaicanFun
The pool is open 24 hours however they say you're on your own once Life guards leave.

11pm, most of the pool bars close around 5. But you can swim u til 11pm
