Reviews of Sunset at the Palms

The only resort you need in Jamaica

There is not a more relaxing, small, private, tropical resort in the world! We loved that everything is outdoors. There are no elevators here only palm trees, hibiscus flowers, birds chirping, and the cutest cats wandering the grounds. We loved the food, the warm water at the beach, the friendliest...

Unique, Quaint & Private

We spent a week at Sunset at the Palms. It was a great experience. This is a quaint resort with rustic "Tree House" rooms, wandering paths, a ton of birds and interesting plants and flowers throughout. There are only 2 rooms per Tree House, so the rooms are very private....

Beautiful, peaceful resort

Excellent, absolutely beautiful, peaceful resort. Very particular and original. If you’re looking for peace and quiet, this is the resort for you. The greenery and amount of different plant species on the site are absolutely spectacular. The style and originality of the treetop rooms are stunning. Highly recommended. Enjoy.


Gorgeous resort setting that provided a relaxing vacation experience.

The resort was gorgeous throughout. The grounds were beautiful and well taken care of-lush palms and fragrant flowers along our walk to our unit. The individual treehouses made us feel like we were vacationing on our own and the beds were comfortable. We had great food at the Lotus Leaf...

Wonderful place!

Definitely worth returning to. Showing its age a little, but lovely at every turn. The food is yummy, the personnel could not be more friendly. Shame on the Palms for not repairing its beautiful grand piano for Paul, the well loved piano man.


Relaxed and comfortable paradise

If you’re looking for satisfying customer service..this is your place The resort isn’t the newest or modern however it’s clean and comfortable. But the staff is what makes this place an amazing experience. Can’t think of any company that can surpass their customer service in 2025..


10/10

10/10 highly recommend. Lynette in the first shop is amazing! We went for my boyfriend’s 50th birthday and we had a blast. The beach is beautiful and the staff are so nice. We had the hot tub and pool to ourselves every night. We love the peacefulness of this resort.


Sunset At The Palms , perfect for experiencing Jamaican hospitality.

Arrived exhausted after a long flight from the UK but as soon as we entered SSATP we were welcomed by the friendly reception staff and given a quick tour of the hotel before being shown to our cabin. We were blown away by the beautiful gardens ( Linford the head...
