We went to Guana Island for a family vacation with our 10 year old and 13 year old and every one in the family loved it. I recomed it for familys with nice adventrus and resondables melow kids but if you have any small children or the have lots of energy and exept something more like atlantis. (a huge and completely man made water park) I also recomed it for romance and want to get away. another reasoon why I loved it is that it was so huge that most places you went you felt you had the Island to your self. The staff was also very nice they really made us feel at home. The kids loved it becouse they always found something to do, sometimes it was exploring or sometimes it wa water skiing or wind surfing or even scuba diving. I recomend Guana Island and if you went there I bet you would too.
My husband and I just returned from Villa Montana Beach Resort and had a lovely time. We had the chance to attend a destination wedding as my cousin was getting married at the resort. It was a hassle free direct flight from Ft. Lauderdale into the Aguadilla airport. My cousin had arranged through the resort to have all of her guests picked up in a town car, this saved us from renting a car but it was available if we needed it. It was a short drive, only fifteen minutes or so down rural roads and as we turned the corner there was this beautiful Caribbean paradise. I can see why she chose it.
Our Villa had breathtaking views of the crystal blue Caribbean Sea, and from our private verandah we enjoyed amazing sunsets that we still talk about. The Wedding was beautiful overlooking the ocean at dusk.– it made me wish that I had found this place 15 years ago when my husband and I were married.
The staff made us feel welcomed and they always had a hello and a warm smile as you passed them around the grounds. We were there for 4 days and there was so much to do we had a hard time deciding how to spend our free time. My husband and I went horseback riding along the secluded beach and also took a great mountain bike ride into lush green forests. The setting of the Villa Montana Beach Resort allowed us to rekindle our romance and get back in touch with the great outdoors. We have great memories of our trip and hope to come back again one day.
We travelled to Jamaica for the first time in Feb 2007 and stayed at the Ocho Rios. Absolutely fabulous! No complaints whatsoever... We travelled with our two teenaged sons (17 + 15 yrs at the time). My husband and myself had one room and the boys had another. No problems! Friendly staff. Amazing selection of food. Clean rooms (I am very particular). Clean pool. Made reservations for a special dinner one night - great steak food. Continually stocked fridge. No complaints. Did the Dunn River Falls excurtion which was amazing a definite must do. Would definitely return; actually, thinking about going back early next year (2009) to Jamaica but might try the Montego Bay new Riu location.
