The hotel

Set on Negril's popular Seven-Mile Beach, Grand Pineapple Beach Negril is the epitome of a laid-back, authentic Jamaican holiday. This intimate resort is set within lush, perfectly manicured gardens bursting with beautiful flowers and gently swaying palms. The Beachside Cottages are located a stone's throw from the beach, bar and restaurant while the Gardenside Manor is nestled in the gardens across the road. Close to Negril's entertainment zone where you can go exploring, but far enough so as to enjoy the quiet. The resort, with its authentic Caribbean architecture, caters to all tastes. Created to accommodate families, couples and singles, the resort offers a variety of activities as well; from kayaking and Sunfish sailing, to a beachfront open-air restaurant and evening entertainment three times a week — everything is included!

This was our fourth time to GPB. We traveled in the beginning of February and returned for the Super Bowl. Enjoyed last years bowl by accident, and returned for this years by design.

This was our fourth time to GPB. We traveled in the beginning of February and returned for the Super Bowl. Enjoyed last years bowl by accident, and returned for this years by design. A lot of the same returning guests each year on this weekend. Fun to see them again. They put out a snack buffet during the game and also were serving dinner at that time. Watching the super bowl on the beach in Negril in February equals a lot of fun. This place is fun, some what quiet, and very relaxing. If you like to relax and just chill, this could be your place. It has become my favorite place. It's not fancy, you won't get knocked off your feet with amenities. But it checks all the boxes for my wife and I. I have noticed the last couple of years that feedback has lead to improvements. The buildings on the beachside have been painted. I thought they looked very nice. The bathroom in our room looked as if it had been painted and freshened up some. We have stayed in this particular room before. Windows in the rooms have replaced the old glass shutter type windows. I have noticed subtle changes in the food service for the better. The deserts continue to please. We always enjoy going out for dinner a night or two to nearby businesses. The only suggestion my wife would have, to offer yogurt at breakfast each morning. More of a dietary request. A couple of mornings when it wasn't on the buffet, she asked and was able to get it from the kitchen. The only suggestion that I have would be to keep the band playing longer on the nights that they are there. At times it is nice just to sit and chill, after dinner, and listen and have fun with the band. Yes there are several places nearby to enjoy entertainment, but it is really nice to hang at the Pineapple and enjoy the evening. I have always enjoyed the employees of GPB. All have been friendly and willing to help in any way. Marvette, Jeffroy always greet us upon our return. Everitt keeps the grounds looking top notch all the time. Already booked for next year for the Super bowl. Read less

The pineapple has always been a bit rough and ready, but we’ve always put of with this, because of the group of friends we meet there, but enough is enough. From the moment you check in, the welcome is not very warm and things go down hill from there. The staff are friendly but you can tell they are not happy in their work. If you want want a… Read more
The pineapple has always been a bit rough and ready, but we’ve always put of with this, because of the group of friends we meet there, but enough is enough. From the moment you check in, the welcome is not very warm and things go down hill from there. The staff are friendly but you can tell they are not happy in their work. If you want want a drink past 10pm you will need to go to the supermarket and buy your own because they frequently run out. The food is not the best either; if there is something half decent to eat in the trays it soon disappears and there’s a long wait to refill, so be prepared to go out and eat somewhere else, there are some nice restaurants near by. The returners dinner was a joke! We were served RAW steak, most of the people I spoke to either sent it back or couldn’t eat it (and good luck if you’re a vegetarian as your meal may never arrive). Overall we won’t be returning for the 5th time unless some drastic changes take place...shame Read less

This year didn't even have a cottage for us that we paid for, we were put in the Manor. Third day we were put in a cottage and had to move luggage ourselves. We asked for some money refunded because we were out for 3 days. They gave us a $20 voucher for gift shop. Wow!! This was going to be our annual March vacation but time to rethink. Staff and beach are awesome. Management needs a lot of work Read less

During this global crisis it's really sad to see that this hotel still wants to make a profit! We booked this resort as we heard good things about it.. We did hear a few negatives but never bothered to listen as you cant make everyone happy all of the time.. The airline, being WEST JET, only offered to refund 50% due to the hotel NOT offering to refund back anymore then 50% themselves .. THIS IS NOT RIGHT!!! This is a pandemic and ppl are being scammed!!! Really?? This is the time to come together and help each other out!!! The right thing to do would be to just cancel the reservation and not charge for anything and leave ppl happy so they would will want to rebook at another time .. Instead we are a group of 15 who will NEVER EVER stay or refer this place to anyone ever!!! A little goes a long way!!! So disappointed in this resorts terms and conditions!!! Read less

This was our third time staying at the Grand Pineapple. We love this place. We love the resort because it is small and we get to see a lot of the same faces every year. The staff is great ! The one thing I really like about this place is that its very quaint. This isn’t a 5 star resort so if that’s what you want, don’t come here. That is the one reason I come here. I’m not real fond of the snobby people that usually go to those resorts. This place is laid back and quiet for the most part. Alfreds next door can keep you up if you are close to the beach. The guys and girls on the beach selling stuff can get a little overwhelming sometimes, but usually understand a polite no thank you.There are only a few things I would like to see different. I would love to see an updated salad bar and more variety on the food choices. The breakfast egg station needs to keep more omelet ingredients all the way until 10. Some of us like to sleep in on vacation. Oh yeah, please cook the bacon CRISPY !!!! Other than that everything is irie. Great beach, with lots to do if you want. We booked our return trip next February. I can’t wait to get back to Jamaica. Read less
