Iberostar Grand Rose Hall

My wife and I went to the Iberostar Grand Hall for a total of 8 days. We take two vacations a year, generally we go to Mexico, but this year we went to Iberostar Grand Rose Hall in Jamaica. Our check in was seamless. Our room wasn’t ready which was to be expected because we arrived early that morning, but they were awesome in prepping a room for us within an hour. It was greatly appreciated, we were able to change and get the party started right away. The room was very nice, with a beautiful balcony, with a hanging hammock style seat. The shower was therapeutic, my only negative was that it the water wouldn’t drain out the shower quick enough, but it wasn’t a big deal. I will say the room had a very slight musty smell, maybe the carpet out side needs to be pulled up. But the bed was SUPER comfortable we slept soo well the entire week. Plus the black out curtains kept the room dark. The pools were great, we were there in late September, so the temp was perfect and the service was great. The beds are first come first serve, so get out there early. The ocean was amazing. We enjoyed just wadding in the water. The entertainment group was the best we have ever seen, on the beach they had daily fun activities. They did a show every night, being that our family is Jamaican we went to the Jamaican themed shows and they were next level. The singers were top notch. Now to the food overall was insanely ridiculously good. We are Jamaican thus we our food needs to be flavored, well cooked and good quality. We were literally floored because we have been to Paradisus Cancun, Secrets the vine Cancun, the Valentine in playa and none of these resorts could touch the quality of food that was prepared on a daily and it was consistent throughout the 8 days. The only negative on the food was that they didn’t have the Jamaican patties out for the first 5 days that we were there. But we ran into a hotel managers who sent a quick text and the patties were out in 40 mins. The alcohol was top teir, also the beach grill was amazing what floored us about the grill was that they used real ground beef for the hamburgers, we were accustomed to the processed garbage hamburgers. In terms of specialty restaurants, the hibachi grill was good, sadly the Jamaican restaurant was closed that week, the gourmet restaurant location alternated between the Jamaican restaurant and the gourmet restaurant. The buffet was hands down the best buffet we have been to, they had steaks grilled to taste lobster with no extra charge. The service was very good as well our butler Taniel was awesome he took care of us, and he had a co worker who got us into a restaurant even though it was fully booked. In terms of the special meeting to try to get us to invest in the club for future trips…we felt like it wasn’t worth the money. Just to get in we would have had to deposit nearly $3,000.00 and a monthly payment of $550 to earn a one week vacation….and they wouldn’t include air fare. But overall we plan to be back at this resort for our next vacation. If you plan to go you will love it. A good tip is to explore the other resorts connected grand rose hall, the suites is right beside grand rose hall. If you an avid coffee drinker, they have a late night coffee shop open at that resort.

This is a beautiful resort. The Iberostar Grand is an Adult only resort but you have access to the Iberostar Rose Hall Suites and the Iberostar Rose Hall Beach. The staff are extremely friendly and they could not seem to do enough for you. The food was delicious. The rooms are lovely, spacious bathroom and a lovely balcony with a swing.
