@@Bigdaddy078 buffet was a hit or miss most nights. One or two night they had curry chicken, jerk chicken (very spicy everyone in our group are spice eaters) everyone agreed it was extremely spicy. I recommend going off the resort to find some good local food. Overall, I only enjoyed the seafood restaurant & the bistro one.
You did a very good job of exposing footage of the main attraction of the resort 👏. Majority of the videos I've seen keep showing the same thing. The room and restaurant. I wanted to see the outside.. Love the footage of the backside of the rooms with the swim up pool, the ocean view, the layout by the beach and the swim up bar. Definitely a Hit🎯🎯
It’s called MO-Bay and the arrival is totally worth it. One time I passed about 300-400 people in line. If 5 planes arrive at the same time, you will be in line for a while. 😀
Hi there! I have booked to stay at the Royalton for next month. I didn't realize there was an "adult" Hideaway side. What would you say would be the marked differences in the two? It will be me and a few of my girlfriends celebrating my 58th BD. I want to make sure I have the right side/environment,
Happy Birthday!! I do believe you still have access to the Hideaway side of the resort. On the Hideaway side they do play adult games, adult music, adult activities, and they have a swim up bar pool area. It’s different a “grown up” vibe on the Hideaway side. Honestly, we enjoyed both sides. Safe Travels ❤️
Yes, that restaurant is so nice especially breakfast. That side of the resort is really quiet & it has its own vibe. Definitely check with your butler for dinner reservations.
No, most of the diamond club rooms on the family side is located on the right side of the resort. The diamond club for the “Hideway” side is located on the far left of the adult side. My room was located near the adult only swim up pool bar.
I think Diamond Club for this resort would be a waste. However, if you enjoy top shelf alcohol you may want to consider it. I recommend getting reservations to Ocean Bistro. We did travel as a group in one of us had the diamond club but they hardly used that side of the resort.
Hello, My wife and I were plannng on going to the Hideaway in September...your reviews are one of the pros...there is so much negatives...how was the Jamaican food in the buffet areas
Thanks for watching!! The resort itself was beautiful (breathtaking) I am sure you guys will enjoy your trip! I just wish the food, drinks and entertainment was consistently good. (It’s definitely hit or miss sometimes). Yes, they had Jamaican food one or two nights at the buffet it was good overall (very spicy) be prepared.
@dennis Make sure to ask if you can update your room to a swim out it’s definitely worth it. Also, if for any reason the resort is late checking you in (anytime after 4 pm) ask them to give you a complimentary pass to the spa. Lastly, if you don’t do anything else make sure you check oceanfront restaurant at the end if the resort. It’s so peaceful on that side of the resort.
Thank you for watching!! Would 100% recommend the Club Mobay ONLY on departure. I wouldn't go back because the entertainment was sacred during the times we went which was (June 30th- July 5) Also, I didn't enjoy the food on the resort except the seafood restaurant. For the amount of money we spent I was highly disappointment with the food selection and alcohol beverages. I purchased duty free alcohol upon arriving to Jamaica. However, I will say this you can prepare yourself like book at the Oceanfront restaurant it was such a vibe it's at the end of the resort (the food is made to order) the smoothies at breakfast are so good. The views/food/service was 100%. Purchase your own alcohol before getting to the restaurant and plan events off the resort.
HI Jennifer, we arrived at the airport at 9:30 am on June 30th so it took us with traffic about a hour & 30 minutes but on the way back it only took us a hour.
This video was to show you the resort but I did the catamaran boat ride, Rastasafari Experience from Negril ATV tour with the locals, and Ricks Cafe. The resort didn’t have a lot of activities one night they had a all white party but no daily activities. Hope you enjoy your stay.
One night they had a all white party One night they had a live band tribute to Bob Marley (it was great great) One night they had a silent disco party (everyone had on headphones listening to different songs)
Awww! Not sure what you wanted me to do with this comment but thanks for watching. I hope you felt better after clicking off of the video. Have a good one 🙂
Please feel free to ask any questions regarding my stay at Royalton Hideaway.
Hi what was the average age Range of guest here ?
@@TheePlantGirl oh that definitely varies I believe it was a wide range of age group 24-64
How was the taste of the food overall? Any good jerk chicken and oxtail?

Also, Grand Lido is the name of the resort. Ocean Point is the name of the hidden gem! Loved the views!! ♥️
Thank you for that correction!! Did you have a chance to eat dinner at Ocean Point
@@iamDecinta My pleasure, not dinner - but we had breakfast and it was great! 😀
@@EscapeWithCarrie yes! Those smoothies were amazing
@@iamDecinta 🤤🤤🤤

@@iamDecinta great!!! Thank you!!!
I recommend Club Mobay to everyone I book to Jamaica. It’s well worth it.
Yes, the lounge on departure is really nice.
We are in building 9 right by the Lido. Is that Ocean Point restaurant that is best kept secret. Maybe out butler can get us a reservation there?
Yes, that restaurant is so nice especially breakfast. That side of the resort is really quiet & it has its own vibe. Definitely check with your butler for dinner reservations.
Enjoy the rest of your trip
Was it a Diamond Club room? Do you recommend Diamond Club for the Hideaway? I’m staying there in two weeks.
No, most of the diamond club rooms on the family side is located on the right side of the resort. The diamond club for the “Hideway” side is located on the far left of the adult side. My room was located near the adult only swim up pool bar.

I'm a diamond club member. It's definitely worth it. They are very attentive to your needs and anything you need you get!

How do you book Club Mobay for departure? Also what is the main reason you wouldn’t come back to this resort?

How far was the resort from the airport
HI Jennifer, we arrived at the airport at 9:30 am on June 30th so it took us with traffic about a hour & 30 minutes but on the way back it only took us a hour.
What did you do off the resort?
This video was to show you the resort but I did the catamaran boat ride, Rastasafari Experience from Negril ATV tour with the locals, and Ricks Cafe. The resort didn’t have a lot of activities one night they had a all white party but no daily activities. Hope you enjoy your stay.
Ok thks
Was there any nightlife at this hotel?
One night they had a all white party
One night they had a live band tribute to Bob Marley (it was great great)
One night they had a silent disco party (everyone had on headphones listening to different songs)
I am completely nauseous from watching this. You move way too fast and you are very unsteady.
