The property was clean and the food was fabulous! The staff including Deyan, Romi and Sarah were very accommodating and friendly. Beach entry is a little rough but they have plenty of loungers on the dock for sunning. I would visit again.

It’s a small hotel run almost like a family operation. Everybody had a smile on their face and made every effort to make our stay wonderful. You could hear the waves crashing on the beach through out the day and night, hotel is like 10m from the beach. Breakfast was made from scratch every morning, wonderful. Dinner choices in the evening were also delicious. I give our stay a 10 , exceeded expectations

Mario, the owner, is great. Threw me a little birthday party which was very loving while I was going through a hard time. The ocean lulls you to sleep. The pier is wonderful to lay on while listening to the waves. It’s also deep enough to jump off of and feel like a kid again. The river is walking distance on the beach and it is very family friendly. The food is top notch. Highly recommend.

A Decent Stay with Some Room for Improvement Overall, I had a nice time at Sand and Tan Hotel in Ocho Rios. The room was lovely and comfortable, but a few issues held me back from giving a higher rating. The bathroom could definitely use some updating—the shower knobs were quite stiff, which made it a bit difficult to use. The TV in the room also felt outdated. My biggest concern was the lack of reliable WiFi in the room. I was only able to get full access in the reception area or other communal spaces, which made it difficult to get work done during my stay. On the positive side, the music and general ambiance of the property were great. However, my room was located right beside the speakers, so at times it got a bit too loud for comfort. In terms of safety, I had some concerns about the parking situation. The lot felt too open and lacked adequate security. One night, I had to park near a bushy area with very little lighting, which made me uneasy leaving my car there overnight. Despite these drawbacks, the staff were incredibly friendly and provided excellent customer service throughout my stay. The breakfast was also delicious and a definite highlight of the trip. With a few upgrades and improvements, this hotel has the potential to be a real gem.

Spent 4 days there this past March. The view from the balcony of our room was beautiful But room could use more cleanliness Hot water in the bathroom was not hot. The place need a little more tic The pictures online when booking looks amazing but the reality is a little deceiving. If you’re an average traveler needing a place to stay and on budget, this is for you but if you’re looking for something nice well maintained and updated then this is not your style. On the other hand the staff was amazing. From the front counter girl Blu to Miss Janice to Romy to the owner omg they were really nice people We enjoyed interacting with them and everything we ask they did for us. Thank you
