Had an overnight stay here. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Accommodation was basic but very clean. If you are driving, the entrance to the hotel is a little difficult to find at first and you need to pass under a bridge were there are locals there washing cars. You advise them where you are heading and they wave you... More

This hotel is located at the east end of Ocho Rios. When we drove in under the bridge and past the car wash we were a little concerned about the location, but we had no reason to worry during our three days there. The staff were all friendly and extremely helpful, and the breakfasts were ample and good, especially when... More

All staff were so helpful when i was getting married. I forgot my flowers and they made me one on the spot.... More

My wife and I stayed at this place 3 days in January 2012. I found this place on Tripadvisor but was reluctant to book this place online, because I wanted to check this place out before forking over any money. Since I had a rental car I drove there.

If you want real Jamaican food or anything else just order it and they arrange it for you. The service at the Crystal exceeds... More

I returned to Jamaica and I made my way back to Crystal Ripple Beach Lodge! After my visit in March I decided immediately upon my arrival back to New York that I would be going back in the next two months to celebrate my twenty fourth birthday. Best decision I ever made! Special thanks to CRBL to helping me make... More

Stayed August 25th-28th 2011 I purposely wanted reasonably priced accommodation so money can be better spent on day activities such as Dunns River, Dolphin cove, mystic mountain etc. It is a locally owned business, good sized rooms and bathroom with hot & cold water, excellent air conditioning you can even control the temperature if its too cold. There is cable... More

Pros: Location - The views, peace and quiet at this place is just amazing. Friendly staff - you request them nicely and provide clear instructions and they will help you out with everything, with a lovely smile. Charm: Local kids come and jump around the beach, a couple of fishermen try to catch their day's worth, swaying almond and other... More
