This is the best video I have seen about the Secrets resorts. It was so informational and personable, great great video! Have you had the chance to stay at Breathless and if so how did you like the experience? I’ve also heard that the food isn’t great so most of the time people go over to Secrets to eat 🤦🏾♀️ You would think that they would have great food since it is so expensive. I hope that Secrets gets back to the Jamaican culture as well.
OMG! Thank you so much! I have not had the chance to stay at Breathless and I probably won't because they don't have any ocean view rooms. I did go to the rooftop restaurant and was not impressed at all. The food was very bland. Thank you so much for watching!
I visited Secrets last year and in 2018 and we are still going back for Christmas and Newyear, I went to 2 beach partys an when I wanted authentic Jamaica food I ate is it called Scotties it's like a fast foid/restaurant closer to Ochi other than that we found everything perfect.
@@AliciaJonestv Hey Alicia 👋🏼 just wondering when you get a chance can you check your email? I'm requesting rates for my wedding next year. Thanks in advance!
@@AliciaJonestv Hey Alicia, hope all is well. Wondering if you received my email? I wanted to see if the rates had dropped since the last quote that you provided to me?
I think they still have the beach parts, as we went to 2 when we visited just over a yr ago, it was popping the first time not so much the second one though, I think it depends on the people attending.
Very good and extremely informative. I loved ur presentation and all the information U shared. But I promise I hope they are playing reggae wherever I’m at on the resort because I will definitely ask for it.
I’m going in May. I am booking my young adult children at Breathless but i booked myself at St James preferred (i want quiet time). This video was detailed & perfect!!! Is the distance walkable between St James and Breathless? i want my entire family to meet up for meals without feeling like a hike. Also Hows security on the property. I want them to be safe hanging out.
Hmm well i know what i needed to know😃 i'm so excited because my dad is wanting to take us there next year & i've watching so many videos to know how it will be, really awesome video😊
This was an incredible video, so much great information. So hard to choose a place, so many to choose from and online they all look good. One question: how were the drinks? I like the frozen fruity drinks and some places they are big jugs of syrup on ice and call it a fruit drink. Like Pina Coladas, daiquiris. Any opinion on those? Thanks.
Jan Kapushinsky the drinks were really good. The frozen ones are good and not watery or anything like that. I haven’t been to any other resorts yet but I’m working it. Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Alicia. Have you stayed at any other resorts in Montego Bay? We stayed at Iberstar Rose Hall for a friend's wedding a few years ago and it was amazing. I was curious if Secrets St James/ Wild Orchid are comparable to Iberstar? Your video was very informative. Thank you 😃
great review! we are thinking of staying there in Jan 2021....first time to jamaica....do you recommend the preferred club? we are having a hard time figuring out if top shelf liquor is included with the regular all inclusive? does PC or regular all inclusive include liquor in the room? We are thinking Wild orchid side because we would like to be near the main pool and near the action. thanks so much for your review!
Hi! I love the preferred club! You have a private beach and pool area and you can go to the main pool area with no problem. The only room I stayed in that had full bottles of liquor was the master suite on the preferred side. The regular rooms only have red stripe beers in the fridge. Saint James has a main pool and wild orchid has a main pool as well. Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Hello. Your review was so informative. Thank you! Do you think the swimout rooms are worth the extra cost? I see you stated that you've never stayed in that room type but just based off of seeing it, do those rooms have great views of the beach or do they face the pool area?
Some of the swim outs face the pool area. Everyone that I talked to enjoyed staying in those rooms. The only thing is there is no privacy but if you don’t care about that then you should enjoy it.
Hi Mark! Thank you for watching! I have been in March, July, August, and September. I like September the best. March is the most expensive. I hope this helps.
Abbott abbott Of course! Saint James is furthest from the restaurants. Wild orchid is closer to everything. I have stayed on both sides , which ever side you decide to stay on you will have fun regardless. I prefer Wild Orchid because it’s closer to everything. If you stay on the preferred you will have access to Breathless which is the newest resort next door.
@@AliciaJonestv I had a feeling you'd say W/O but the suite we wanted is all booked up for the festive period, so we went with St'James. Thank you for your reply.😊
@@AliciaJonestv Thats the way to be I can't understand people who visit a beautiful country like Jamaica or Mexico and eat a pizza 🍕😄 Yes, I understand for kids and picky eaters etc but give it a try you might just love it.xx I'm glad you try a bit of everything.

Hi Alicia. Have you stayed at any other resorts in Montego Bay?
We stayed at Iberstar Rose Hall for a friend's wedding a few years ago and it was amazing. I was curious if Secrets St James/ Wild Orchid are comparable to Iberstar? Your video was very informative. Thank you 😃
Hi there! Unfortunately I have not stayed at any other resorts besides secrets and I wish I did but thank you so much for watching.
ANY UP TO DATE VIDEOS??? GOIN TO WILD ORCHID IN JULY 2023
Hi! I’m sorry, I don’t have any updated videos.
No prob it's all good
Alicia, do you know how long a bus ride is to the blue hole from Saint James?
Ronda Snyder I think it is about 2 hours.
@@AliciaJonestv thanks!

Loved your review, thanks. In your opinion which month is the best to go there?

@@AliciaJonestv ok thank you so much. You've been very helpful.
Great review! Will be going in October!!!
Hope you enjoy it!
How long of a walk is it from st James to the restaurants???
Hi Kathy! It's about 5 minutes.
Been here 4 times. You have to hit up breathless montego bay! Also, the one in D.R.
Mr. K I forgot about the one in D.R. Thank you for stopping by.
Nice job.😃.
Thanks 😁
@@AliciaJonestv "You, welcome.😀.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
I’m still deciding on which one to stay at in May. I’ve been to breathless in punta cans. Very nice. This will be my 1st time in Jamaica ... HELP PLZ

Sorry for talking to much, but would you prefer St'James or W/O. Thank you.
hannah gadd it’s okay no worries. I honestly prefer Wild Orchid. I just like that it’s closer to everything.
@@AliciaJonestv I had a feeling you'd say W/O but the suite we wanted is all booked up for the festive period, so we went with St'James.
Thank you for your reply.😊
I'm not a picky eater so I ate anything and everything, if you love Jamaican food the Jerk Chicken Cart wont disappoint.🍗🇯🇲
I eat some of everything when I go to Jamaica.
@@AliciaJonestv Thats the way to be I can't understand people who visit a beautiful country like Jamaica or Mexico and eat a pizza 🍕😄
Yes, I understand for kids and picky eaters etc but give it a try you might just love it.xx
I'm glad you try a bit of everything.
Hi does the resort have a night club?
Yes it does. It’s called Desires.
Do they offer Tito's vodka? 😜
Ronda Snyder I’m not sure about Tito’s but I know they offer vodka. 😀
What's your IG handle ?
