    I was there Dec 2020 for a week. All we did was hangout by the beach and drink... nothing was available we could only eat at 1 restaurant outside of the buffet and we were not allowed to leave without one of their guides, and the food was not that good. But its beautiful, and we're heading back there in a couple weeks (For 2 weeks). We felt like we wanted to give them a fair shot without covid restrictions...
    Gluttons for punishment I guess

      My wife and a friend had a similar experience at the Mexican Bahia resort shortly after they reopened. We heard from a few people that Jamaica was the last to reopen, so it might be still be getting back up to full speed

      wow it seems like white privilege to me. Why are you ordering 6 drinks at onetime? 7 drinks? no you behavior seems entitle. Yep it's you folks. no didnt have today anything but change your behavior.

      Update: we went back. It's still beautiful. But the food was actually worse. The jerk hut was the only food that was enjoyable... after a week it was the only food edible. I ate lettuce so much the staff kept asking if I wanted vegan options 🤣

    • @UncleMadd
      @UncleMadd  Год назад

      Awesome! We love PC, and are going back there this year. The restaurants are pretty much the same at all the Bahia resorts. There’s an Italian restaurant, hibachi, Brazilian steakhouse, Don Pablo gourmet, etc. The one that was new/different in Jamaica was Knife an American style steakhouse. We went there in this video ruclips.net/video/pIKMm09QFLM/видео.html

    Ok I started watching your videos because I am going in mid January. I wanted to see what the good and bad about the resort. I think we are going to love it there. I never saw you guys go to the beach but it looks great. cant wait. Is there umbrellas in the rooms? Thank you for answering my questions both yesterday and today. and Thank you for showing us around the resort.

    • @UncleMadd
      @UncleMadd  Год назад +1

      Happy to help! We did have an umbrella in our room. Luckily we only had one rainy night, so we didn’t need it much. We tested out a few spots around the different pools and beaches our first day there. The privilege club beach area was too far from our room, and the main beach was too far from the bar lol. We decided the pool was the best spot for us

      Anyone can sign up for privilege club it means nothing, it is just to accumulate points for discounts and over a few visit upgrade. it is no different from a Macdonald app. this guyot giving you any information that you would not get on your own. her are info valuable . you can check in 10 days before you arrive, you can book your room 5 days before you arrive, and the best one you can make restaurant reservation up to five days before u arrived. this guy is a timeshare owner who pretend like he is some expert. as he mention he is a waiter himself. he seem to trying to make an income fo=rom this ridiculous blogs.

      @@deedeebrown5763 the Bahia resorts usually have a lot of activities and stuff going on but the Jamaican was a little scaled down. It seemed like they weren’t fully back up and running from Covid. We figured that was probably the source of our issues. We will probably give it another shot eventually but for the time being we’re sticking with Punta Cana and Mexico

      this guy and his lady major problem is they didnt say his name. Really Bro. you said you are a waiter. you there on a timeshare. C'mon bro. you provide no useful info and you are no genius. Nothing this guy said is useful. he as no idea what he talking about. he did take advantage of the butler service, he didnt tell you that you can book before you arriver through their websites. He couldn't get reservation as he didnt know the tricks of thre trade. you can book restaurant up to five days out after you check in on their website. wifi slow as he new pay for premium and obviouslly it is first time as he would have enough point to get upgrade with the privilege app he sign up for. He seem to be there during covid.his wife ordering 6 and 7 drinks at a time. As he admitted he was the only one complaining that tells everyone it's him not the staff.

      We have heard that others had better experience, so we might have just had a bad week. This had been going on for a few days, and we would remind the wait staff that we hadn’t received our drinks. We switched to the indoor buffets after this and had no issues there.
