I had other amazing stay at tamboo the majority of the staff is so amazing , go above and beyond and r so sweet . The location is perfect and the beach beautiful . My only complaint is one girl i have never seen before who checked me in not very friendly i had another interaction with her and she was again kinda rude as well I was disturbing her then another friend of mine who i have got to stay there with me the last few times last time for a month she went to inquire on rates for an upcoming stay another month and she told her she doesnt know and she should look online so probably lost a customer . Everything else I love.my.home away from home

Disliked: Cleanliness
Property is a nice property but everything is old dated and dirty. The is bed is old and in a poor condition, the linen on the beds is between stained or have hole in them, bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly, AC is falling down, the television is so small and don’t work and the chef is so rude so we change our mind from eating there. On the positive note they have a beach and it was clean and nice. Wouldn’t stay again

Close to the beach, good price, clean, safe, friendly locally owned boutique hotel. If you are wanting a authentic, down to earth experience to Jamaican culture support this local family business. All the live music you could want is in walking distance and security is present if you need assistance. Everyone that works there is friendly and helpful. We are grateful for our stay, thank you ❤️
