Overall our stay was alright--we mentioned before we arrived that it was our anniversary on the 20th--they said they would make note--I mentioned it when we arrived--they said they would make note--nothing special was done on the 20th like they said they would do-that was disappointing--our room had an ocean view but the balcony had a white cement wall blocking the view that our kids could not even see over--thousands of other rooms had glass walls to enjoy the ocean view--this was disappointing--and our king size bedroom was in the room with no windows are view whatsoever and we were the ones paying for the room--our kids got the room with the balcony--this was disappointing. WE found certain staff around the resort to be short, cold, and rude whereas many others were very sweet and accommodating. For the price we paid--the experience did not match.

My biggest and most concerning issue was with Expedia. We book though Expedia (NEVER AGAIN) and prepaid for our 6-night stay. Due to a terrible winter storm, our flight was cancelled, and we could not get rebooked to Jamicia until the following day on Tuesday. We called Expedia to see if they could move our check in date to Tuesday. The customer service rep was NOT helpful and told us that the hotel did not have availability for us to stay our full 6 night's stay beginning now on Tuesday unsteady of Monday. When we arrived at the hotel, they said they had plenty of availability for us to stay our full 6 night's stay, but Expedia would need to change the reservation. From there we kept getting the run around from Expedia and was told to keep checking back with us, which we did for several days with no response. On two occasions, I was talked to a customer service representative who both hung up on me. Needless to say, Expedia went ghost on us and after several days after being back home, I have yet to get a response from the two emails I sent a week ago. On one occasion the hotel representative in Jama who has worked in the hotel business for 17 years told me that Expedia always takes the approach to NOT help customers in situations like mine as they do not want to give me the one night's say ($380). It's shameful as they definitely are now ignoring me and its apparent, they do not want to help and will do anything to not refund your money. Shameful Expedia!!!!!!
