    Happy belated Birthday Latoya to both you and your daughter 🥳 Do you share the same Birthday? My daughter and I share the same Birthday!
    I can’t stress enough how helpful this video is to me. I especially appreciate the tours and knowing that there aren’t any elevators or lifts since my mother mentioned that she’s considering this trip in November with friends. I mentioned to her to let me check into it first to get the details and your video was the first of my recommendations. I’m definitely subscribed now and looking forward to more great reviews!

      My daughter was born 3 days after my birthday but we always celebrate together, well for now as I believe she will soon want her own space. Lol
      I am happy to have been such great assistance to you and hope you all have a wonderful time on your trip.

    This review came up on my feed as i visited December 2019 came home and Covid took hold a couple of months later.I watched this very detailed reveiw today;the only thing i would say they can't be knocked for not having much entertainment and things to do because obviously with covid restrictions in place not many people are travelling.The food was fantastic with all restaurants open so various choices.For me it was a holiday of a lifetime, there was nothing i wasn't happy with.I have mobility issues too but it was easy to call a buggy to take me wherever i wanted to go.I am of Jamaican heritage but born in England so it was kinda home from home for me.I still keep in touch with some staff members on a regular basis.Things will be back to normal soon and i promise you when they are you will have the time of your life there.

    Your video was a pleasure to watch, it was very informative and thorough, thank you. I'll be there over the Easter weekend but question... I think I was booked for the Jamaican side so can you say if that is a separate property because I realize security directed you to LH.

    • @lymingwithlatoya
      @lymingwithlatoya  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Flex chic,
      Thanks for watching my video and for this question.
      To my knowledge there are three different sections. Jamaica, Lady Hamilton and another which is an adult section. However, if really doesn't matter where you stay because you have access to all section. I was at Lady Hamilton which is in the middle and I walked from there to the Jamaica side and then over to the adult section.
      So the side where you saw the stores are the Jamaica side and the section with the Spa is closer to the adult section.
      So hence why I was so tired because I actually walked the entire property. You will have a lot if walking to do. Lol.
      Hope you enjoy your stay.🤗🤗🤗

      Hi Marshellena,
      Thanks for watching .y video and commenting. I plan in doing a video to indicate which hotel I love the best but all gas their own unique thing I like.
      So far, Ocean Coral Spring is my top choice regarding food and entertainment and them Iberostar Suite would be second.
      As it relates tonlocatiin near the hotel, they all are on one strip. The two I mentioned may be around 30 to 45 minutes from the airport.
      I have been to Holiday Inn but that's was before doing my UA-cam channel. I like their food and entertainment but it's more kids friendly. That is closer to the hotel.

      Hi Nicole,
      My daughter had just turned 13 years old. To be honest, just as I mentioned in the review, we didn't have much fun.
      Majority of the places and activities weren't available but I am of the view that these issues are due to covid.
      For now, I would not recommend this resort for the kids. Hopefully by December all things everything changes.
      I would recommend Ocean Coral Springs and Royalton Blue Waters for the kids. You may check those videos out if you want to on my UA-cam page.

      I traveled to Grand Palladium on the 6th of February 2021. I didn't do any test on my visit, only temperature tests. May be this is due to the fact that I wasn't traveling from overseas. They may or may not have testing for overseas persons.

Also, did they fill up your fridge after you spoke with them. We're going for my bday but also to get away from the everyday tasks as adults we deal with.
    Thanks again for the review. I truly appreciate you taking the time out to do this.

      Hi Chelle,
      Thanks for watching my video and thanks for the comment.
      Mask is a must, well not in the pool. Lol. But they do encourage persons to wear their mask, especially when entering close spaces. (Restaurants..etc.) Take along sunscreen also and extra bath soup as the ones provided weren't enough me. Take shower cap too and flat slippers.
      You should definitely take along nice restaurants attire and swim wear. You can also check their site to see what type of parties they will have during your stay. ' when I was there, they had an all white party that I didn't know about but I still went and saw ppl I'm different colour cloths'
      They came and restocked my fridge within 10 minutes, so that was a plus for me.
      The property is really big as they have different sections, so be prepared for a lot of walking of you wan to view the place.
      The entertainment during the day wasn't much for me and I felt bored at some point but may be all this is due to covid and the little number of ppl.
      I do hope you have a great time though and happy bday when it comes 😊

    In your opinion what is the best all-inclusive resort for the price in Jamaica? Me and my girlfriend are planning for our anniversary in the summer. I loved this video!

    • @lymingwithlatoya
      @lymingwithlatoya  3 роки тому

      Hi brockricks,
      The prices will fluctuate now due to covid. It was affor6atvthe time I went to these resorts but the prices may increase now, since more persons are now booking resorts more often than before.
      Out of the 5 hotels I've been to during this pandemic, my top picks for an anniversary that is affordable would be,
      Ocean CORAL springs, Iberostrat Suite and then Grand Palladium.

      @lymingwithlatoya  Рік тому

      Hi JNG Mom,
      Thanks for watching my video and I love that I was able to provide as much information to you.
      I would recommend Jewel Grande Montego Bay & Spa, Ocean Coral Springs and then Iberostar Rosehall Suites.
      I have heard however that Ocean Coral spring is not doing well now re. customer service but I know they have good entertainment for teens.
      Iberostar has good food and the environment smells really nice but the entertainment even though good, is limited
      Jewel Grande has good food and entertainment for sure. So that resort is my top pic.

      Hi TheRoblove11,
      The property is really big and as such. You have a wide stretch of beach. I specifically looked at the Corak. Each which is a section by the adult property. I think you may be mistaken that to be the while beach itself.
      I didn't see much shaded umbrellas at the time and this may due to the fact that I went there during covid time.
      In all, I didn't find my stay an entertaining one but you may go and have a different experience. I wouldn't want to go. back there.

      This video I did is actually three different sections of Grand Palladium. They also have carts that will take you to different places.
      As it related to the age of your child though, I wouldn't recommend this resort for her to have fun.
      I would consider Rui Ocho and Ocean Coral Springs as they have slides and adults are also entertained. Ocean Coral food is better though.
      Royalton Blue Water has slides too but I was not impressed with their service and food.

      My top hotel for good all around entertainment and food are: Iberostar Suite, Ocean Coral Springs and Jewel Grande.
