Hopewell Holidays from £1,303

For the price, the resort was well worth the trip. The cove beaches are close and very clean. Most of the bufet food was good (just get there when it is opening and fresh). The restaurants had good food and plenty of portions for each theme. The waiters were attentive (Akeem and Andrew to name a few). Lots of different drinks to order at the bar. The entertainment team was fun and prizes were given to the winners of games.

Excellent Resort, especially all the excellence club amenities

Beautiful property with very responsive and helpful hosts

We stayed at FDR exactly 1 year ago and my children still bring it up every single week. The facility is very humble so if you’re looking for white walls and glass everything this is not for you. But if you want a humble quaint environment where the staff makes you feel like family give FDR a shot. My kids (11,9,5) loved the water slide and our nanny Tamara. They still talk about how much they miss her often. Shenille did the boat tours. He was so kind and gracious and took us multiple times to fish, spear fish and snorkel. He even coordinated for the chefs to cook the fish we caught for us straight from the ocean. You see the owner, Christian, often and every time he remembers you and your name and is truly invested is your experience at his hotel. The food: it was different than most all inclusive experiences in that there is a menu and it’s not a free for all buffet but that did not bother us as they are very accommodating. I have a gluten allergy and they made me a special dinner similar to my families every single meal. Everything is fresh and hot as they cook it specifically for you. We did not have a single thing we did not like. The thing about this hotel that is unlike any other is the location. The snorkeling in unmatched. Bring a mask and snorkel. We saw every single sea animal you can imagine right off the beach. Even dolphins on our last morning at breakfast. This hotel and Jamaica will forever have a piece of our hearts.

Princess Senses is a beautiful property. Opened for less than a year, it still has that "brand new" feel. Resort is split between an adult-only and a family area. Platinum upgrade is very much worth it. Butler service was fantastic. Housekeeping did a good job, but was a little bit unpredictable on their timing each day.
