Spent a week at Club Ambiance over the New Year's Holiday. The resort is average (food, room, etc), but the experience is made great by the people (staff and other guests). My friend and I really enjoyed our stay here. Feel rejuvenated.

Traveling with my boyfriend, sister, brother-in-law and parents, this resort was the perfect quiet spot for a small group. The staff there was really what made this spot so special. They were extremely attentive and it was clear their priority was our comfort and happiness. The rooms were clean and the AC worked well. The beds were a little hard, but nothing overly concerning. Anything we needed was quickly attended to. Garreth (Skinny) would love to take you snorkelling, ask for Chris to take you into Ocho Rios for shopping and site seeing. Take a bike ride to the Green Grotto caves nearby as well! The food was excellent with lots of variety through the week. They have the main buffet and then a grill outdoors for lunch time. Beer is only served on tap, but the mixed drink selection went far beyond pina coladas and daiquiris! If you don’t like too much sugar, ask Brady at Legends Bar for a ‘Coloured Cow’. If you are looking for busy, crowded white sand beaches and unnecessarily large lobbies and statues, this is not the place for you. If you want private beaches to spy on sand crabs, beach volleyball, enclosed coves to sunbath in the buff, shuffle board, ping pong, pool and darts outdoors, then look no further.

I went with a friend over New Year's Eve and we have nothing but good things to say about Club Ambiance!! After reading reviews we knew it would be an older resort without any fancy bells and whistles, and that's exactly what it is. However the rooms were clean and the air conditioning worked and that's all we needed!! The resort is fairly small (about 90 rooms), which we liked because we got to know a lot of people staying there. And as many reviews have said... the staff are INCREDIBLE!!! Without the help of Sharika at the tour desk, I wouldn't have been able to go diving as my original dive plan fell through and she pulled as many strings as possible to get another company on the property in 15 minutes!! As it's a small resort you get to know the staff and I have nothing but good things to say about the entertainment crew (Storm is an absolute gem!!) the bartenders (Junior knew my drink on the second day!), the cooks (noone cooks better than Mama!!) and the wait staff (Princess's smile always made me smile!). Because it is a smaller resort they may not have as much variety for food, drinks and activities as other resorts, however I found that we always had things to do, I was pleased with all the meals, and the drinks were always cold and tasty! I would highly recommend this resort... however if you're looking for 5* and loads of people... this is not the place for you.

It is terrible resort, I can't say more than that!
No beach, so you can't swim AT ALL!!!! NO Jamaican food, just on wednesday and very poor variety!!! Rooms are terrible, we moved three time, every think is non functional. They write review by them self to hook the travelers. Never go there, they have fake review!!!!
