I loved my stay at the S Hotel. Everything was beyond clean. Food was amazing.Very satisfied even after such a tragic incident just happening. Extra perks like full service while even on the beach they set you up a spot with chairs , unberellas, and drinks brought to you ON THE BEACH . That was awesome. Only reason for not giving it 5 stars was because we had 2 extremely rude female staff. I get it times was not the best for staff knowing that some still didn’t have power or fully functioning homes to get back to, but it was as simple as saying excuse me to gain their attention and the response was to turn around and frown their face up. Not all staff was that way thank god everyone else was beyond great and helpful from the bar,cafe,front desk, to security! Thank you S Hotel we enjoyed our stay and will be returning!

From the moment I arrived, I was completely captivated by the stunning oceanfront view. The sight of endless blue waters stretching toward the horizon was both calming and awe-inspiring. Mornings began with golden sunrises reflecting off the waves, and evenings ended with the soothing sound of the tide beneath a painted sky. If you’re looking for a place that brings peace, beauty, and a true connection to nature, this oceanfront view is simply unforgettable.

Beautiful hotel with stunning room amenities. We were upgraded to a cabana suite and it was wonderful. Having stayed at many all-inclusive resorts over the years, the S Hotel Montego Bay had a very different feel. We would categorize it as an urban retreat as it is much smaller in scale that most all-inclusives. The hotel is smartly decorated with modern design and art choices. Our disappointment was directly related to its size- no dedicated nightly entertainment space- with bad weather bands were moved into the lobby with no space to really dance. No real activities or water sports other than aqua aerobics. We did eat at the two ala-carte restaurants and were satisfied. The lunch and breakfast buffet were lackluster at best, but the grill by the pool sufficed for lunch. All in all pleasant stay at a beautiful property.

The S hotel was amazing. The staff was plenty, treated you like family. The hotel was clean and made you feel like you were in a luxury 5 star. My husband and I were there during hurricane Melissa and they made sure our safety was first. The S hotel was one of the few hotels that still had power, cooked food and water. Despite what Jamaica was going through, the S hotel made sure all guest was taken cared of with the upmost hospitality and we are very grateful. If you are looking for relaxed vibes with an upscale feel this is your hotel. I will be back for my do over!!!

This place was perfect! The style and decor was really special. The property was the prefect size with plenty of fun areas to explore but easy to make quick trips back to the room. Our room had a gorgeous giant spa bathroom which was so clean and luxurious and with a stunning view. I had a wonderful massage in the spa by the way. The food was delicious and we loved the buffet variety. We enjoyed all the staff and especially loved the treatment when checking in. Felt such a warm and friendly welcome. The activities in the afternoons were fun and we really looked forward to them. The beach and service there was my absolute favorite. We snorkeled right off the shore and were amazed at the shells and soft clean pebble-like white sand. This place was paradise in the prefect location and we will go back to S Hotel for sure.
