Jumby Bay was all and more I expected it to be. We stayed in room #23, a courtyard suite, it was perfect. The bed was so so so comfortable, lady primrose products smelt wonderful, the view from our porch great. We are big food and wine people, the food was outstanding, the wines by the glass were nice in addition to the wine list offered. One night they had a prix fix menu with wine pairings ~ it was delicious. Each day we spent on the beach, reading, relaxing and looking at the breathtaking blue ocean! You really feel like you are secluded on a private island. And the homes on the island are super awesome.

We met a few other guests who we ended up having dinner with our last night there ~ everyone at this resort is in vacation mode and very friendly! Most people there are on their honeymoon and two weddings took place while we were there. We even had tea with a couple we met from England. The whole experience was wonderful.

Will definately be going back after the rennovations are complete.

We just came back from Jumby Bay and it was a truly unique experience for us. My husband and I went with our 8 year old son and stayed in room 31 a ocean view bedroom suite. The room itself was great and the bathroom was the best part. We hardly used the AC, the cross breezes were fantastic.

We had to get used to the laid back atmosphere, no TV, no in-room wireless, no locks on the doors, golf cars/bikes for transportation etc This is not a complaint, simply stating the facts. We were OK with it, but certainly different than what we are used to at other resorts.

The two major drawbacks were the lack of a spa and the lap pool. Although they are planning on closing this summer and undertaking a major renovation which will add a spa and infinity pools. One other issue for us were the mosquitos. We did not have the netting set up in advance and my son looked like he had chicken pox the next day. The good thing was that these bites don't itch. I HIGHLY recommend the netting.

The beach was wonderful. Starfish everywhere. A great sandbar to walk out on and great cabanas to relax at all day. Make sure you get up to reserve one with books and personal items. Also make sure to use the FREE water toys. The catamans are a lot of fun for an 8 year old.

The food was good and plenty to choose from. We like the Estate House the best and the wine selection was good, although the prices, like the resort, were high.

The island itself was great and to name drop, Paul McCartney and Mariah Carey were staying there at the same time we were.... The private villas looked great to stay in if you can afford them.

Would recommend if you are fine with the price and looking for a relaxing, laid back place to stay.

My husband and I stayed at Jumby Bay in mid-July and had a lovely time. We were upgraded to one of the Rondavale rooms with a plunge pool with a great view of the ocean. The staff was always friends, most knew our names. We spent most of our time lounging on the beach or wandering the property on our bikes (at least 2 bikes at every room for guest use). The food was okay, the rotate the menue at the Estate House 2 times a week, though we did wish there was a little more variety. Overall I would definitely recommend Jumby Bay to anyone looking for a tropical place to go on their honeymoon that is off the beaten path.

We stumbled across Jumbay Bay on the internet and booked out trip 3-4 months in advance and I can honestly say we did question if what we saw was really what we were going to get...Jumby Bay highly exceded out expectations numerous times. The staff was very personable and helpful, the food was fantastic. We did have a problem w/ our A/C one night but we called the Front Desk and within minutes the maintenance staff was there and fixed the problem. The main beach absolutely beautiful, Pasture Beach very secluded. We would highly recommend the private dinner on the beach. Your own Chef and wait staff, candles, flowers, moonlight, all right on the beach. Well worth it. The food at both the Estate House and the Veranda were excellent from the service to the atmosphere. Our room was just perfect. Snorkling on at Bird Island was another nice day. Lots to see. Sunset tour of the island was also perfect.
Our trip lasted 6 nights but when we return we will definately stay much longer. The time of the year was good as long as you like the heat. No jellyfish and lots of starfish. This is definately a place for an adult getaway. We would recommend this trip to anyone....and have. We haven't stopped talking to our friends and family about since we returned home.
