Thinking about going here but also thinking about going to Secrets Riviera Cancun. Not sure which to choose. Price with airfare is the same so I'm stumped.
This particular resort Wild Orchid is the closest of all next to the dining and entertainment- but to be honest, it’s not going to make THAT big of a difference. If you’re style in general is to make friends, do more activities, and mix and mingle - you want to stay at a Breathless brand AMResort. It’s not focused on couples. Hope that helps! - Brandon
OMG.. you had me cracking up, I can't stop laughing at how funny you are! Love this review and how fun you made it! I may have missed it but what room category were you staying in here?
Hi, Minnie! I think you might have misunderstood me in the video. While Zoetry isn’t on the same property (about 20 min away) guests from Zoetry are still permitted to use all the facilities at Secrets - the pools, bars, and restaurants. Some AMResort locations offer complimentary shuttles, but not in this case. If you have any more questions, we’re happy to answer. We appreciate you taking the time to comment and watch. Have a terrific weekend!
No, there was not a microwave in the room. But you don't need one. All food is included -- including room service. There is a mini fridge that is fully stocked!
I am planning to book this resort but I dont want to pay extra for preferred club. Is it worth it? Can we access breathless with normal suite?Also how is the nightlife for a young adult? loved your review btw!
Hi, Yas! Thank you for asking a great question. You cannot access Breathless from Secrets St. James or Wild Orchid unless you’re staying in a preferred club room. It IS worth it for a better check in/out experience, upgraded liquor choices and snacks in room, concierge etc. If you have more questions, I’d love for you to reach out to Josh - josh@magiclampvacations.com. He’s been planning quite a few honeymoons and romantic getaways recently. - Brandon
You are so correct! My husband has already brought this to my attention several times. 🤦♂️ It is now forever ingrained in my head after posting. Thank you for watching and commenting. Have a great Monday, and let us know if we can answer any questions. - Brandon
They have a sense of Freedom Now! STOP It! That part rubbed me in a wrong way. He should have just stuck with his own personal experience about the resort and NOT give his opinion about my ancestry feelings about Freedom.
Hi, Michael, my opinion is just that, my opinion. After traveling to many countries around the world, there IS a very different type of energy in Jamaica. And it is the energy/feeling of freedom - jubilance - joy. That is something to be celebrated and shined a light on. The people I visited with about their culture and history were extremely kind and eager to share. I believe that visitors would do well to know the history and culture of the Jamaican people to better appreciate their visit - especially the origin of Jamaican slang. - B
I agree Michael, that part of the was actually offensive to me. I think I understand what you were trying to do but you can’t understand and saying the beautiful people of Jamaica are happy because they are free is insulting.
@@serenajoyner I appreciate and do respect this opinion. I’d love to hear more so that I can better understand where you’re coming from. In my heart I’d never want or desire to offend but to celebrate. In truth, I just love the island and the people so much. I could never imagine the trauma or history of the people because I never experienced it myself. It’s truly a remarkable place to visit. - B
The entertainment at night is also second to none they have talent shows and live performances most every night
I stayed at Secrets Wild Orchid and absolutely loved it! 💕

Language can play a big factor if your doing activities outside the resort.
@@MagicLampVacations Ended up going to Sandals White Coast Jamaica. It was fine but we wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a tropical vibe.
Hi Brandon , which side is better for young adults? We want to be closer to a more lively atmosphere in July

Yay! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. Thank you for stopping by and watching! We were in a Jr Suite Ocean View room. - Brandon
No spa tub on the balcony?
Not on this room category. - Brandon

Zoetry*

Want to know more about Secrets Resorts? Just ask in the comments!
Can u go to other resort to eat or use pools?
The restaurants are shared between the resorts - but there are a few bars/spots exclusive. The pools are similar.
