This place has certainly gone down hill like a horror movie from the 70s scene dated furniture blood on curtain splatters from misquote swatting along with greece stains the bathroom had rusty facutes with missing cover plates oxidation on the door handles bathroom mixed matched tiles. Great location but this place needs a serious overall bottom line.For a big property like this it should have more amenities such as a pool and decent restaurant

I loved the beach. When I booked this property I asked Rashida for RECENT PICTURES, she responded via WhatsApp that the pictures on the website were the pictures of the rooms. We landed at Norman Manley at 12:30pm, picked up our rental car by 1:30pm and was on our way to Frenchmens Cove. We did not arrive until 8:30pm. It is a good idea to inform your guests that major construction is in progress and so do not drive the St. Thomas route. Upon arrival the Security handed us an envelope with a key and we proceeded to the room, unit 14. We could not believe how dated and unclean the place looked. In the envelope was a document which stated that we should take our toiletries, no food would be served, etc...Great time to tell your guests upon arrival. I appreciate the two tiny bar soaps and towel we received. Only two of the towels could be used, the white towels, face rag and shower rags were stained. There was no attempt to replace the towels or clean the room for the duration of our stay. We paid a premium cost for a very poor quality accommodation with no service. We had every opportunity to book elsewhere and visit the beach if we wished. We choose to book with Frenchman's cove because the Website suggested that the amenities were good. Certainly not a good value for money. We are very easy to please, not a prima dona at all but the room made us very uncomfortable.

We spent a week in the Cinnamon Hall Villa. We chose FRENCHMAN'S COVE after visiting the beach as guests many years back. We loved our stay here. The villas are clean and very comfortable. While they have not been updated and are instead a time capsule of their era, they are comfortable and beautiful. if you are looking for a very special place to stay this is absolutely it. The entire property is so thoughtful, each villa situated for complete privacy and maximum views of the gardens and sea. The linens and towels are fresh and clean, AC works well, and villas are tidy and well cleaned. If you are looking for a unique place to stay, with an amazing beach nearby, this is it. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. Such a special place!

Beach is beautiful, hotel territory a wonderful jungle.
Standard rooms below expectations (but it’s Jamaica 😂).
Maybe Villas are better but prices are high.

The cottage was great and the overall property was green and eco friendly. However, the small 'garden' area at the back of the cottage facing the sea, needs attention and maintenance.

This is my second trip to Frenchman's cove resort, the last trip being in 2011 and it was just as amazing as I remembered. The beach at Frenchman's Cove is still one of the most beautiful I have ever experienced and I would stay here just for the beach alone. You will see many reviews complaining about the dated decor and maintainence of the rooms and all of it is true but they are perfectly serviceable and fit for purpose. We stayed in one of the cottages at the top of the cliff and had spectacular views of the sea from the cliff. Air conditioning could be slightly stronger. I think the trick to having a great time at this resort is to read the reviews thoroughly and adjust your expectations. You come here for the beautiful beach and the peace and seclusion of Port Antonio. This is not one of the glitzy all heaving party Jamaican resorts. There are several other resorts in Jamaica which have that vibe if you are looking for it. In fact, be prepared to have a hire car or pay for taxis to go into town for dinner as they do not serve dinner on the premises. They do have a beach bar that serves lunch and the food portions are large and delicious but make sure that you order your lunch immediately when they open at 10am as they do take about 2-3 hours to prepare the food and bring it to you. Do not make the mistake of ordering only at lunchtime as it will be about 4pm before your food reaches you. The resort also sells day passes to the beach to locals and guests from nearby villas so the beach is not exclusively private. This does not bother me although it may be slightly crowded on the weekend however some guests have felt dissatisfied if they have expected a fully private beach. Again, it's about expectations and knowing what to expect before you go. This resort is truly a gem and the beach location is just one of a kind in this world. I was lucky enough to witness a conaervation group do a baby turtle hatching and release on one of the days on the beach and that was truly special. Perhaps the rooms could benefit from some updating (more modern showers would be nice) but I think that may just detract from it's charms. I look forward to making my third trip hopefully with a shorter gap from my last visit.
