I have been back from the beautiful island of Jamaica for 2 weeks now. I must say that I had the best time! I stayed for seven days. We arrived in Jamaica around 9:21 am. It was no one in the line for customs at all so I could have saved on the Mobay arrival. I’m not complaining though I love a nice drink while I wait for transportation to the hotel. We got to the hotel and walked over to the Preferred side. Check in was smooth. Our room was not ready and we were told it wouldn’t be for a few hours. No problem we went right over to breakfast and then to the gentleman in the red vest and booked a short trip to the Hipstrip. We took care of shopping and got it out of the way. Shout out to Brian! He drove us to Mystic Mountain and was really nice! Shoutout to Hopeton once again although I only saw him once this time he always remembers me and says hello. Let’s get on to the preferred side. I am sold! Haha. I love it there! Our room 1411 had the best view. I got to see the amazing sunsets. The preferred side also has tubs on the balcony. It also has a private beach and pool which was really nice because you didn’t have to search for somewhere to sit there were plenty available. Did I mention the small lounge with a bar and snacks? YES! The preferred side was nice and quiet during the day a little loud at night because it was closer to the live entertainment. No worries man. I would love to stay there again. The grounds are always kept nice. There is always someone who is out trimming or cutting. I have stayed at St. James, Wild Orchid and now Wild Orchid Preferred. What’s next? LOL Ah I can’t forget about Leroy who served us at breakfast and sometimes lunch. He is the best. Always with a smile on his face. He had a wonderful gift for us the day before we left! Thank you so much Leroy! Also I cannot forget about Caulette! She is soooooo awesome! Thanks again Caulette! My favorite places to eat were the World Cafe which is the buffet, Portifino the Italian, and Blue Mountain with the Jamaican cuisine. The have changed the menus in most of the restaurants. Not sure about Seaside grill and Oceana. Overall I had a wonderful time and hope to return next year. It is my goal. Secrets is the perfect getaway for a girlfriends trip, couples, wedding, mother daughter trip whatever suits you if you are 18+. I am going to miss it. I do have one complaint and that is that I am so spoiled that I don’t care to go anywhere else. I could probably move right in!
