Sommerville Resorts

My husband wanted to take me away for Valentine's weekend. And of course we both agreed on staying at the Sommerville. This would be our second time and we ❤️ it here. We now refer to it as our home away from home. I mean, we even call the Entrepreneur "Aunt Joyce". You can't leave there without feeling like you're leaving family. Rooms: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Location: 5/5 Rooms The rooms are big with big bathrooms and big comfy beds, make you feel like you're at home. Nice rainfall shower heads with hot water. And talk about clean and pristine, you could eat off the floors. No lie! Safety The Sommerville is gated. But there is an armed guard on duty at nights. My husband and I surely slept peacefully 😌 😴 Walkability You can walk less than 5 minutes down the road to Rick's Cafe. Or if you don't drive you can grab a cab and go 7 minutes up the road to Margaritaville and lounge on the beach. Walk the ***** and sightsee. Trust me there's loads of fun to be had. Food and drinks OMG! They serve a full course breakfast each morning. I'm talking ackee/saltfish with boiled provisions and or fried dumplings, steam callaloo and so on. Fresh fruit and fresh juices, coffee or tea. Honestly folks, the food is awesome 👌. By the way I should add, this is not an all inclusive resort, but if you prefer to not go out, they will make accommodations for you to have dinner on the premises. Big ups to the new chef. Your presentation and taste is up there. Noteworthy details I think it's noteworthy to restate, this is not all inclusive resort but they have nothing on the Sommerville in negril Jamaica. Great value for a great stay. Hotel highlights Luxury, Romantic, Quiet, Child-friendly, Great value

I must say this resort is an amazing stay. And the owner is an Angel. The room that I stayed was cozy, clean and the breeze coming thru was so refreshing. Every morning, the chef on site prepared the best authentic Jamaican breakfast. Must STAY

Joyce and her staff came all the way out to host me after hurricane Beryl forced a last minute change of plans. Looking for a quiet spot away from larger resorts the Sommerville hit the mark. Nestled neatly between several local hotspots that you can safely walk to, I was able to strike an easy balance between entertainment and peace. The property and the rooms are immaculate, gated, and secured with an overnight guard. As a solo visitor I found this extremely comforting. The staff is gracious and welcoming, the food is delicious (American style dishes are also available) and never once did I feel like a stranger. Follow the resorts recommendations for airport transfers and other transportation. The hot water is there. Give it a minute. This is an island that needs to conserve resources, otherwise it's still a nice temperature, especially after arriving from the airport. From start to finish I was at home in this resort every minute. I knew I was as going to the right place when I explained my dashed plans to Joyce. She kicked right into gear and summoned her resources to help me salvage my trip. I am forever grateful. A great place overall to be alone or establish roots and create a real family connection, or to do both, as I did. Aunty Joyce and her delightful staff made me feel more like a branch of the family tree that had come to visit.

The beds are comfortable..,, but that’s all that you have. There is basically no anenities . OK ,….it’s great that Rick’s Café is close by and you can watch the sunset, but there is absolutely no amenities at this hotel. no pool no hot tub no massage girl/guy no safe in the room no bar that’s actually open. I think the prices should be a little bit lower. To expensive. No amenities. You’ll have to take a cab/taxi anywhere you go because it’s very dangerous to walk on the streets.

This Sommerville west end Negril is now my home away from home. I mean, you arrive as guests but leave as family. The owner's name is Joyce, who is now our Aunt Joyce. She goes above and beyond the call of duty. She named the place after her grandmother "Sommerville" this to me shows how family oriented she is. Baring all that let me add, the Sommerville resort, isn't like one of those big all inclusive resorts. But you get an even better feeling being at the Sommerville, because you are treated so "exclusively" that you won't miss a thing.

I started off my weekend in Negril on a bad note. The Airbnb I rented had been closed for 2 yrs. Luckily Miss Joy loved across the street. She came to my rescue. I followed her to a bed and breakfast she owns with her grandkids. Did I luck out. The place was immaculate. I was the 5th guest to stay in this beautiful place. When we arrived she made me a rum punch to help me forget... yup I don't remember. Then we looked at the room. There was not a speck of dust anywhere. You could literally eat off of all the floors it was so clean. Along with the room came an authentic Jamaican breakfast. If you think the room is good you will be blown away by Chef Bakers cooking. Another genuine soul. We were talking about local trees and fruit. One we spoke of was the breadfruit. The next morning when I arrived at breakfast chef had gone out to get some so I could try it. I have had so many great experiences this one is now in the top. If you come to Jamaica and get to Negril this is a must stay location. Other benefits are it is so close to everything. Ricks is a 5 minute walk, downtown and 7 mile beach is about 10 to 15 minutes. There is gated parking on site as well.When you get there please tell my new friend Joy, that Josh says hello.
