We had an amazing honeymoon at Secrets Wild Orchid, Montego Bay, Jamaica. 20 mins from the airport, lovely staff at the resort who were friendly and helpful. We were in the preferred club junior swim up suite, which came with butler service included. Our two butlers, Kenton and Betty, were fantastic and made our stay enjoyable and memorable. We enjoyed the buffet food served at breakfast and lunch, and the restaurants available for dining in the evenings were great too. Room service is 24/7 but we found the choice of items a little limited. We had one negative experience on our last day when we went to visit the onsite gift shops, they were having a managers meeting and signs said they would be done at 2pm. It was already 2pm when we arrived and everytime we asked (3 times) we were told they were "nearly done, 10 mins", "just wrapping up" and "almost done, just 10 more mins". In total they took over an hour and then were not apologetic, instead one person made comments that we were whining about the wait time and another was laughing about it. As part of the honeymoon experience, we enjoyed some complimentary spa treatments alongside treatments we paid for. We enjoyed the spa so much that we went back and enjoyed more treatments on another day. Overall, we had a great honeymoon and enjoyed our stay in Jamaica. Read less

Secrets Wild Orchid did not dissappoint. We stayed in the Preferred Club with Butler service which was fantastic. My next stay I will not get butler service as everyone is so helpful and a butler is not needed in my opionion. can not wait to return

Nice resort, unspoilt bay, good facilities. But look some where else if you value your hard earned money as corporate events when they happen take up at least one third of the resort’s facilities including bars and restaurants leaving the rest of the paying guests queuing for meals which is not acceptable for your evening meals.

We are scuba divers and travel all over the Caribbean and Mexico. Secrets Wild Orchid in Montego Bay was one of the best places we have stayed. The people are exceptional! The food at the restaurants was very good, and the drinks were nice and strong! We stayed in the Preferred Club with Butler Service, and it was worth every penny. Our two Butlers, Kenton and Betty, were beyond wonderful. They made our trip amazing! The Jamaica people are by far the nicest on any of the islands, and it keeps us going back. This trip was 100 on a scale of 1 to 10. Read less
