"The property was beautiful and offered great views and even had a small private pool. The space was welcoming and large, perfect for a small family! We do recommend the resort, especially during hot months, to have the AC units serviced appropriately as there aren’t many close dining options so most meals are prepared in the home, and no AC in the kitchen was miserably hot. We did have a difficult time after check in to get in touch with the resort to arrange transportation in a timely manner....

Any real issue we had was not reflective on the property, if you ever drove in Jamaica roads are a little bit rough and the one going up to the property is a little rough but not impossible by any means. The view is amazing the place is clean and the AC in the bedroom works amazing. We had an issue with the gas for the stove, but that might have been more of a user issue than anything else. Everything else worked out fine."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a fantastic stay at Deja Resort in Montego Bay! From the moment I arrived, the people were incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming. The staff truly made the experience special. The entertainment was amazing, and the Entertainment Director did a wonderful job keeping everyone engaged and making sure there was always something fun happening. The resort was clean and comfortable, the food was delicious, and I especially loved the authentic Jamaican feel. It felt like I was truly experiencing Jamaica rather than staying at a resort that could have been anywhere. The beach is absolutely beautiful, and the location is perfect! There is plenty to see and do within the immediate area, which made it easy to enjoy Montego Bay beyond the resort. Great people, great food, great entertainment, beautiful surroundings, and genuine Jamaican hospitality. Deja Resort gave me exactly the experience I was hoping for. I had an amazing time and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended! 🇯🇲❤️"
