The Grill features the only indoor, wood-fired grill on island, using local, indigenous logwood. The wood imparts a touch of smoky richness and is used in a mixture of torched wood for earthy flavour and sweet wood to round out the finish. The open kitchen allows guests a glimpse of the busy chefs as they prepare the evening’s meal. The Modern Caribbean theme of the resort’s cuisine at The Grill is simple, locally produced (where possible) and sustainable. The focus remains on sustainably-grown, humane and organic products.

Cockroach infestation

I would not recommend this place, for starters when I made the reservation I booked the wrong dates, I called within hours of booking it, begged them to cancel the reservation so I could make another one but they refused it since I made a non refundable reservation.
We got there and the place is nice but dated. We got a nice villa , 3 bedrooms with pool, it was nice until we came back from dinner and found lots of cockroaches in the villa.
My husband had to kill them they came to spray something and more roaches came out of the bedroom. My kids were very scared at this point. Next day I asked them to check the villa and spray something but again at night lots of roaches. The manager said he would recompense us for the inconvenience. They changed us to another villa on the 3rd day. No apology, no mention of the inconvenience. We had a late check out that was cancelled.
The staff is amazing, very knowledgeable and helpful but I wouldn’t go back. It doesn’t worth the insane price they charge

A fabulous experience!

Round Hill was a fantastic experience for my family of four (including two young girls). Or Villa was gorgeous and well maintained, complete with friendly personalized breakfast everyday. The staff was extremely friendly and kind to us at every juncture. Their kids club was also a delight for our girls. While venturing into town or doctors beach works require a driver, the scenery here was so idyllic we didn’t feel the need to venture out save for a trip to the dolphin cove. Between the beach and the infinity pool, we had a fantastic visit and look forward to as future return!

A Caribbean Classic

We just returned from a really enjoyable 4 night, 5 day trip to Round Hill. The staff, particularly Shelly, Burch, and Owen, were all very pleasant and helpful. The grounds are very well kept and beautiful, with great views of the Caribbean and sunsets. The food was well prepared and the drinks were delicious.

We booked a 1 bedroom suite with a plunge pool, but the accommodations were more like a 1 bedroom villa with 3 floors and an amazing full size pool. The top floor consisted of the bedroom, ample closet space, a large full bath, and two large balconies - one overlooking the entrance and one overlooking the pool. The middle floor was the main entrance and living room with a full bath, closet space, and a large balcony overlooking the pool. The bottom floor was another large living space with a dinning table, kitchen, and full bath with an outdoor shower, and opened to the pool area. The entire space has a very open design that we really liked.

We would have given Round Hill 5 stars except for one issue that was bothersome. We were told the previous guest took the key with them when they left and there was not an extra key. While we were able to lock the suite/villa while we were in it, (we thought) we were not able to lock it when we left to go to the beach or dinner. The reason I said we “thought” we could lock it while we were in it is because we realized the glass door to the outdoor shower either does not have a lock or we could not find it, and the internal locks we tried to use did not work. So, although we felt safe, there was some discomfort that the suite/villa could not be secured. Hopefully they will get those issues corrected because being able to secure the accommodations, while we are there and when we are out, is a minimum expectation.

Other than that issue, we give Round Hill high marks. We had a great time and the people were great.

Amazing Authentic Jamaican Hotel

I spent 3 days at Round Hill Hotel in Jamaica. Great location, close proximity from Montego Bay airport, but a world to itself. Words cannot describe the beauty of this very special hotel. If you are looking for an elevated and authentic Jamaican experience, Round Hill is your place. From the luxurious elegance of its rooms and villas, to the breathtaking lush gardens, tropical greenery and many beautiful beaches, Round Hill offers a very relaxing environment. Most importantly, the staff was exceptional. From the front desk to the restaurants they were all on point. Can't wait to get back to Round Hill.

Wonderful week, not sure we would book again...

Round Hill is lovely and you can tell from being there it is a place families return again and again. Staff is fantastic and we enjoyed every interaction with each of them. Overall, there is a premium exacted at every turn, which we don't love. Staying at expensive places, you sort of know what you're getting into but here it felt a little bit extra...there are so many staff catering to you, which is nice but there is a definite air of expectation that you are tipping each one of them - AND there is a 10% tax and 18.5% gratuity on most everything...but staff will say that gets split amongst everyone so then tipping on top of that becomes routine. We were told that prices went up a little over a year ago and with what we spent for 1 week here, not sure we would go back when there are so many other wonderful options. What you get for the money perhaps feels a bit more 'in line' elsewhere, unless you had the sense of nostalgia for this place, which we do not.

Great property but minor details…

A beautiful setting and a beautiful property. Stayed here with family July 4-6 and really enjoyed our stay. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful and the staff really try to be helpful and deliver a food service. The gym is large and private and the beach is serene. Food quality is excellent.

A couple of minor details - breakfast is supposed to start at 7am. However the service was late in getting started which was really inconvenient on the day as we had to travel out early. Also had a couple of housekeepers enter the room next door to our early one morning and begin a very loud and animated conversation which meant we could not sleep late on that day. There are just some finer points for the staff that at a resort of this quality the finer details are important. Food service needs to be on time and staff should be helpful without disturbing guests!

Overall though this didn’t tarnish what was a great experience and we would come back again.

My family and I just returned from our four day trip to Roundhill. It was our first time in Jamaica. Our time at Roundhill exceeded our expectations. The villa staff were exceptional. They catered to our dietary restriction without a problem and they prepared a wonderful breakfast every morning. The view from our villa was amazing. The food was delicious throughout our stay. The beach BBQ was our favorite as far as food and fun atmosphere. It is a truly relaxing environment. The resort furnishing, dining room area and bar were so elegant. I can’t speak highly enough of Roundhill. Can’t wait to come back!

Magical Stay at Round Hill!

Our family just returned from a four stay stay at Round Hill in one of the 3 Bedroom Signature Villas. All the villas appear to be privately owned and managed by the hotel. Our villa was just superb with top quality furnishings and artwork, panoramic views, incredible tropical landscaping and a beautiful pool, and our family loved it. It was fairly far, and uphill, to walk from the villa to the lobby/beach, but the bell staff would send carts and they were very prompt. We ended up spending a lot of our time hanging around the villa just enjoying the privacy and the views.

Overall the resort has a "retro" vibe with B&W photos of famous guests over the years, and Ralph Lauren's influence is evident (he is a board member and villa owner) . We particularly enjoyed the complementary high tea each day at 4p,. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful and really embodied the Jamaica vibe. Our villa included breakfast made at the unit by the staff each day which was superb and really started the day off right.

The food and beverage standards and prices are quite high, as one would expect for a resort of this caliber on a Caribbean island. The wine prices seemed especially high compared to what one would pay for the same bottles in the US. The restaurants in Montego Bay proper are very average, and the traffic in town is terrible, and the taxi prices are high, so we would not recommend going off property to eat, unless you are going to Sugar Mill at Half Moon, which unfortunately is on the opposite side of MoBay from Round Hill. Fortunately the F&B theme changed every night so the dining did not get repetitive.

I would say the main negative of the resort would be the beach. It is adequate but not the idyllic white sand Caribbean beach that one might get other places, which is really out of their control. It sits in a cove and is a bit rocky with some seaweed and grass growing on the bottom. There is a coral reef right offshore which allows for nice snorkeling. The positive of the Round Hill beach is that it is private and restricted, so you don't get hawkers and other types walking by trying to sell you things like we've experienced other places (e.g. Baha Mar in the Bahamas), or having to worry about your stuff getting stolen. The infinity pool adjacent to the beach is quite nice.

Overall our family loved it and we all agreed we would go back.

Shay’s Jamaican Birthday

For my girlfriends birthday a total of six of us rented a villa here. The villa was nice with three bedrooms
accommodating all of us comfortably. We had a staff daily that prepared us breakfast as well as cleaned
the villa. We also had our own private pool that made for some interesting activities after dinner.
They also have a restaurant, spa & pool with beach front. A concierge that could plan daily activities in
Montego Bay and we hired a van with driver for the entire stay.
If you go I would recommend book directly with the hotel rather than a travel agent who used a third party
Classic Vacations. Also use Club Mobay for navigating the airport and lounge use well worth the money.
The Villa comes bare no drinks or food for snacking late night and room service is expensive a bottle of Don Julio
was $450. Also no tv or microwave. And if you go to dinner in their restaurant they automatically add 18% gratuity and another 10% our server
said was tax which I didn’t see elsewhere in Montego Bay. That’s 28% added and I still haven’t tipped the server so I felt that
was enough so unfortunately nothing for her other than share the 18% with restaurant staff.
If you have a mobility problem this is a problem you have to go up stairs with no railings. My girlfriend used the spa and they
charge you by how much pressure is applied . 🤷
The staff was friendly as are most Jamaicans but if something goes wrong they won’t correct it especially if it involves
their money as what happened at a restaurant in Montego Bay.
Overall the trip was memorable. One love ❤️

Unparalleled elegance at Round Hill (and a great kids menu!)

Unparalleled elegance and service at Round Hill! We splurged on a villa with a private pool and it was so worth it. The housekeeping staff were so kind and attentive, and the breakfast experience was world-class. Ackee tree right outside our window! I wish we’d had the energy to enjoy late night entertainment, which sounded both tasteful and fun. Daily tea time was such a treat. We loved the beach bar and all of the staff. The folks at the kids club were so friendly and made my son feel welcome and at home. Thank you!!

High end family vacation that doesn't disappoint

We rented a 3 bed signature villa for our recent stay, and absolutely loved our time at Round Hill. It felt boutique, with plenty of space for us to enjoy the resort without it feeling crowded.
Having breakfast prepared for us each morning at our villa, next to the pool and looking out over the Caribbean Sea was the best way to start each day.
The villa was exceptionally clean, as was our pool and rest of the resort, and everything felt well maintained and cared for. The restaurant served a different menu every night, however Monday's beach BBQ was definitely the highlight for all of us, and something that shouldn't be missed.
The gym was well equipped for strength training and cooled appropriately for a workout. I was able to do my usual routine with the machines and free weights available.
The kids absolutely loved the water sports! Tubing was a highlight for them, and the wife and I really enjoyed the snorkelling accessible straight from the beach with the house reef only a short distance from the shore.
And the spa massages we had on our last full day were also top notch!
Highly recommended stay for families.
