    Great vid. Been twice. Another tip for guests is u can ask for all beer in your fridge. I also tip the maid daily for the Jamaican coffee. I came home w/a bag full of coffee!

  • @PrincessZahraaa
    @PrincessZahraaa 6 років тому +16

    You have to step outside the resort to know the Jamaican culture and see the locals. We are friendly and welcoming, however if you get a taxi out ensure that it has a red licence plate. I am a British born Jamaican who travels to my families land of birth often and I stay in hotels and in the community and that is the best experience mixing them both.

  • @FunandBudget
    @FunandBudget 6 років тому +17

    I will also say don't book an excursion through the hotel...or you will pay about $100 more than the real price. I wanted to go to Mayfield Falls...one of the hotels was charging $110 per person (4 of us), we talked to a private driver (red license plate) and he took us for $30 per person. Shoot on my Jamaica vlogs you see we negotiated EVERYTHING...LoL

    Great video guys. You guys seem like fun to travel with. My wife and I have actually stayed at the Grand Palladum 3 times. The funniest part was the crickets. There was one under my daughter's bed. She thought it was a spider. After a while though you get used to them and it's actually relaxing (but I was drunk so what did know). Anyway thanks for the four videos. We may go back this year or go to the Dominican.

    About tipping, so im no cheapskate i have worked in the service industry so I get it. Im confused as Sandals resorts say not to tip only your butler if you have butler service (which we got on this new years deal) and is odd to me as we are working class folk and just not accustomed to do something like that but anyways I'm getting off track... do we still tip, even though sandals says not to ( more specifically they said it was forbidden) but I care about service folks, but dont know if its really allowed . Please let me know if yall can...and whats appropriate tipping in Jamaica? ( when we went to Mexico I just tried to tip everyone who helped us so I made sure to bring plenty of fives and ones)

    • @LifeWithUsTV
      @LifeWithUsTV  6 років тому +1

      I'm like you... I tip. Honestly if its forbidden I wouldn't but if it's still an option I would tip them because they work hard.

    • @Hevenzeyez18

    What will be the suggested length of stay??... Will 4 days be enough or would you suggest a week (7) day stay??

    • @LifeWithUsTV
      @LifeWithUsTV  6 років тому +1

      Honestly if all you have is 4 days, take it but I would suggest 6 as the sweet spot. We did 5 and it went by so quickly.

      Jess, what you are failing to understand is that people don't necessarily travel to a resort because it's pure luxury. If that's the case, they could have gone to any luxury hotel in Florida or Europe. There is something about Jamaica that Mexico cannot give-even if they try. Besides, how can you assess the level of luxury at the Jamaican hotels and you have never been to Jamaica? Furthermore, some of Jamaica's hotels, and Jamaica as a whole, were ranked as the best in the world for travel and tourism: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/business/20170327/tripadvisor-ranks-jamaica-among-worlds-best-destinations. Jamaica also copped 8 coveted World Travel Awards (WTA) in 2018, including: World's Leading Beach Destination, World's Leading Villa Resort 2018 - Round Hill Hotel & Villasion, World's Leading Cruise Destination, World's Leading Luxury Hotel Villa, 2018 - Fleming Villa at GoldenEye, World's Leading All-inclusive Company 2018 - Sandals Resorts International, World's Leading Family Resort Brand 2018 - Beaches Resorts, World's Leading Caribbean Attraction Company 2018 - Island Routes Caribbean Adventures, World's Leading Adventure Tour Operator 2018 - Chukka Caribbean Adventures: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/lead-stories/20181203/jamaica-tops-world-travel-awards. THIS IS TOP IN THE WORLD we are talking about! Grand Palladium is NOT even one of Jamaica's top hotels. If it's luxury, Jamaica has; if it's budget hotels, they have; if it's in-between, they have. They have a little of every damn thing!

    I can't thank y'all enough for the info!!! My bae & I are going on a trip for the 1st time w/o other ppl. I was torn btwn Dominican Republic, Montego Bay & Negril. I've been to Negril back in 2012 and been dying to go back ever since. I wanted to share a neww experience w my bae so being I've already been to Negril & DR (my dads family are natives so I've been a few times) Y'all made the decision easier!
    We smoke so why not go to the "weed capitol"?! I'm currently planning/booking for April.
    So excited thanks guys! ❤

    • @LifeWithUsTV
      @LifeWithUsTV  4 роки тому

      I cannot tell you about the process but I can say I witnessed 2 weddings while there. 1 on the deck above the pool area and 1 on the beach at sunset with the Japanese lanterns and both were beautiful to witness. Do your research, look on trip advisor to see which resort caters to destination weddings the best. Although everything looked amazing, I can’t speak on the behind the scenes ❤️
