Feb 03, 2026lovely hoilday!
Wonderful last minute family trip. Rooms were nice, clean and in good condition. Reception and concierge staff were all helpful. Some maintenance going on around the hotel after the hurricane however it doesn't disturb you and its great to see how resilient the Jamaican's are after such a tough time. The restaurants were all great. Food choice is brilliant and waiting staff are all lovely. John-Pierre in the Buffett restaurant was so lovely and always gave a great service. The bars all have a great choice of drinks available. Rohan down on the beach bar is the most amazing bar man and will make you whatever cocktails you like. The entertainment team were all brilliant, they kept the place lively without being in your face. They got all the kids and adults involved in activities and alway did the most amazing dance routines. In particular Freshh, V6, Finez, Concrete, Too Short and Red Bull. The evening shows were all great, DJ Turbo / Fresh on the DJ decs was so lovely and played songs to keep the kids entertained whilst waiting for the shows to start. Only criticism here is that show's don't start until 9:30pm which just feels a little too late for the kids. The kids club was lovely, staff really good with the kids and it's great how on the app you can see what activity the kids are doing and where they are so you can go check in on the kids whenever. The team at the diving water sports centre were all lovely. We did the snorkelling/catamaran tour which I fully recommend doing. The team on the boat were brilliant all very knowledgeable and really helped our small children get involved and in the water safely. The only thing we didn't like / we're a little confused by was the day after we arrived we were asked to go for breakfast over at the next door hotel and told they might talk to us about some things we could do. When we got there it was a buffet exactly the same as our hotel and then a 90minute sales pitch to get us to sign up to a holiday club. We just felt a bit caught off guard. They did give us some vouchers for attending and the staff were all lovely but we just felt a bit bombarded by the whole thing and would have rather just had that time to enjoy our holiday than have hard sales pitch. That being said although the other hotel next door seemed nice from what we could see it wasn't much different from our hotel. We also meet lots of guests who paid to stay at that hotel but ended up coming over to our hotel as they just said that the atmosphere was better and there was more going on with the music / entertainment team etc. so I fully recommend saving a bit of money and booking the waves rather than the more expensive suites hotel next door.

Feb 01, 2026Nice resort with friendly staff.
We liked the pools at this resort, they had great views of the ocean! The food was average. Some of the fruit was frozen and thawed. They did not have any limes for drinks. Most of the staff were nice. Rohan at the bar was excellent! The ice cream shop was great! You can walk along they beach for about 10 minutes past the other Iberostar properties. The ocean was warm, make sure you bring water shoes because it has some rocks on the bottom. The water is not very clear. I could only see a few fish while snorkeling at the resort beach. The nightly shows were mediocre. We have had better entertainment at other resorts. We enjoyed the warm weather, sunshine and friendly staff.

Exception Vacation
We recently stayed at Iberostar Waves in Jamaica and had a wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and right at home. The service was top-notch; everyone we interacted with was warm and friendly, and they ensured we were enjoying ourselves. We have stayed at this resort several times and decided to return after the recent hurricane. The team handled the lingering effects of Hurricane Melissa very well. There are still signs of renovation and improvement, but the hotel has done an impressive job of getting everything back up and running. The food was also fantastic. There was a good variety, and we liked being able to choose between casual options and more sit-down experiences. The resort itself is very beautiful and clean. Our room was comfortable and had plenty of space to unwind. Overall, our time at Iberostar Waves was relaxing and memorable. The beautiful property, great amenities, and outstanding staff made our stay extremely special. We would happily recommend Iberostar Waves!

Return visit to Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach, Montego Bay, Jamaica.
Thoroughly enjoyed our return trip to Iberostar Waves Rose Hall Beach in Montego Bay. The people that work there are amazing. Many of them are still living with the effects of the hurricane on their personal life, they still come to work to make our stay as special as possible. The food, both at the main dining room and all four restaurants was amazing. A nice addition this year was the lunch served daily at the club beach area. Thank you for doing everything that you are doing during this trying time to still make vacations there memorable. I would highly recommend this resort to all age groups. Exceptional value.

Outstanding service at the front desk – thank you Odain Hunter
We had a wonderful stay at Iberostar Rose Hall Beach, but I would especially like to highlight Odain Hunter at the front desk. From the very first moment, Odain was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. He took the time to help us with everything we needed and always did so with genuine warmth and a welcoming smile. It is rare to meet someone who not only does their job perfectly, but also makes guests feel truly valued and cared for. Thanks to Odain Hunter, our stay felt even more special and truly memorable. Iberostar is very lucky to have such a dedicated and outstanding team member. Thank you once again for the excellent service – we will definitely return Ramona Halasz
