Toby's Resort

This little, friendly resort is everything you can wish for if you want good value for money and excellent service.It is very well situated on the corner of the hip-strip, walking distance to all shops and restaurants in Montego bay.You are only a 5 minutes walk away from Doctor's cave beach and some other local beaches.The rooms are very spacious with super comfortable beds and a big terrace.You have plenty of cupboard-space, a nice big t.v. with lots of U.S. and local channels.The rooms are cleaned daily with fresh towels and shower products..The hotel serves excellent breakfast dishes, U.S.-and local style.There are 2 nice , clean pools with plenty of loungers,, one is quite big and is a saltwater pool, you can use them late at night and there is always nice music at the little pool bar.The gardens are well kept.The staff is amazing: super friendly, helpful and professional, from the front-desk staff, the restaurant servers /barman and the maintenance staff: everybody greets you with a big smile and is always there to assist you.They made us feel very welcome and cared for.The resort also had a very friendly driver who can take you on excursions, the airport....for a reasonable price. I can only recommend this small resort if you want to stay close to the action in Montego bay, local-style and for a very reasonable price.

This is not a big, luxury resort you have to keep that in mind.It is a bit older, although well-kept and clean but it shows a bit of wear-and-tear.For us this gave it lots of character and a very local-feeling but don't expect glitz and glam. The shower could use a bit more water pressure but that is just a minor detail.

It is located minutes from the airport and on the corner of the Hip Strip. Be careful with being overcharged by the locals! Ask the price FIRST for everything! You can always say no or negotiate, this includes taxis. There's a little market/plaza with a few mom and pop restaurants (2 minutes) from the hotel. We were able to grab food and water there, when we didn't eat on site. I recommend eating BREAKFAST on site. It's about $10 per person, not $18- as mentioned here. They serve the traditional dishes of Jamaica... We went to Doctor's Cave Beach- it takes about 10 minutes or less. We stopped on our way to the beach and took pictures in front of Tracks and Records with Usian Bolt's bolted statue, which was cool. It was closed early morning... You will also pass The Royal Decameron Hotel and The S Hotel on the way to the beach. I would have rated the hotel higher- if the wi-fi worked.

If you need Wi-fi, the services are not good. We had to go outside to get a good signal. I recommend having a hot spot. I paid my provider for services in Jamaica and it didn't work, once I arrived. I was very disappointed. I had to rely on WhatsApp to communicate. Again, the wi-fi is poor! The hotel is old, but that didn't bother me. If you are a modern look person- this is not your hotel. I found out that it is family owned and built in the 70's. You can hear the traffic passing by, as well. That didn't bother me, it may bother others. The food and taxi rides add up! Money seems to evaporate. I would stay here again, if it is only for a day or two. If you are staying a week- you will be better off doing an affordable all inclusive hotel- where all food and drinks are included.

Location and restaurant service as as the security and the friendly staff

One of the receptionist, light skin one, was bodly disrespectful. I paid an extra 50 US for a late check out and a few days later this same lady was ready to cancel and refunded my money because they had lack of communication issue with her team mate. She had no care that she being rude to me. I was not happy. She kept repeating her name, knowing I was ready to make an complain. Then her fellow team mate stepped in and apologized on her behaved. It's a lovely resort and nice restaurant. So that one bad experience will never stop me from staying there again. She need training or fired. Her name started with K. I had a long travel and I'm too tired to remember her name. Service goes a long way !!

I will characterize Toby's as efficient, convenient, no frills accommodation in Montego Bay. It just gets the job done, get the queen bed, its not big but its decent. The was an issue with ants, that come out at night, and my shower i had to play around with it a little bit. They have a restaurant on site that is not expensive at all, and serves but international and local cuisine. Conveniently located near Dead End, Doctors Cave and the airport. I will definitely stay here again if in teh general area.

Sometimes noise in the hallway but that is not the fault of the resort.

It was very easy to make my booking online. The hotel is very close the airport so it was handy as my flight was late in the night. The 2 ladies at front desk were amazing as well as the security guard.

ac wasn’t working properly the day we arrived. however they had a Maintenance person come the very next day to fix it.

Restaurant doesn’t open until 12 so by that time it’s lunch. I had a great meal, the best meal I’ve had in Jamaica.
