  Outstanding

  Samsara far exceeded my expectations, I came with my 18 & 13 year old sons. The property is outstanding. I was upgraded to a vue suite which was gorgeous and spacious - I will miss waking up to that view everyday. The food selection is small but delicious, especially the Chicken Alfredo omg I could have ate it forever. Tina at the bar went over and above to make my son happy, he loved her, thank you Tina. I especially appreciated the front desk staff who helped me every time I asked, so kind. Elijah the hotels taxi driver also helped me no end. Drinks menu is fantastic and anyway we just lived the place. Unfortunately my son got second degree burns on the first day (I've holidayed all over the world and this has never happened before so be careful, Jamaican sun is savage). On his first day of feeling better I slipped on wet tiles on my terrace and sprained my knee and shoulder and was more or less bed bound for the rest of the holiday but staff did all they could to make us comfortable and I cant thank them enough. I'd highly recommend Samsara to everyone, there is something for everyone. I'd say be cautious to anyone with severe mobility issues, I struggled a bit bit it was old, lots of slopes and steps and a flight of stairs up to the restaurant but staff will help if needed. Absolutely nothing to do with Samsara but I wouldn't recommend Jamaica to single white mother and I wouldn't go again on my own to Jamaica in general but I was safe in Samsara, the general public it seems thought I was dripping in gold and attempted to extort at every turn including a taxi driver (not samsara) who agreed a price then said he wanted more and if I wasn't happy I can get out... very intimidating, I was only going to the local chemist to get dressings for my sons burns so I didn't go out again unless Elijah took us and that's only one example. Anyway, go and visit Samsara it's a gorgeous property full of gorgeous people who will look after you. Thank you to all :)

  Amazing place to stay a while!

  My wife and I stayed at Samsara for almost a month and worked remotely. Amazing location if you want a relaxing experience surrounded by friendly staff. Enjoying our breakfast everyday overlook the ocean, crystal clear water to jump into when you get to hot, and we even found out they have fiber internet. Worked the entire month there without issues on video calls all day. A+++ hotel. 5 Stars. Highly recommend!!!

  Low frill, relaxing Negril escape

  I stayed at this resort 15 years ago and decided to go again on a last minute solo trip. The best thing about the resort is how friendly the staff is and the beautiful location/views. My room was clean and spacious and the view was stunning. It is a very safe resort and the staff will help you either any questions or recommendations. I like staying here because I love to snorkel, but it’s awesome they have the sister resort on 7 mile beach so you can enjoy the beach as well. (Pick up is at 10 a.m. and return time is 4 p.m.) It’s also very easy to get a taxi from the hotel to restaurants or from the beach if you want to enjoy happy hour. The resort also has a gift shop if you forget any essentials. Tips: - I would not get the all inclusive package. The food is just ok and there are so many fantastic places to eat. Xtabi and the Rockhouse are both walking distance and have superb food and drinks. - The room is clean and the ac was cold. They provide bar hand soap and towels, but no shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc. you have to bring all your own. They have “a few” hair dryers you can borrow, but I just brought my own. - Next time I would bring my own beach towel. The towels were square and barely covered the back of a beach chair.

  A solid value stay

  Went with our family of 5 and we had a great time, the property is truly spectacular. Waking up to those morning views was therapeutic. Besides the actual grounds, the staff were fantastic as well. We love Jamaican food but by day 3 we needed a break and they had a great pizza across the road which I believe is also owned by the hotel. Traveling with 5 could get pricey however we found this place had excellent value for the money we spent. We're already planning our trip in December and planning on bringing the rest of our extended family with. See you soon!
