Resort Profile

A classic-Negril, cliffside hotel, Samsara Cliffs caters especially well to couples with a tranquil vibe and some of the lowest rates for an oceanfront resort on the entire island. While it doesn’t score well as a beach resort (mainly because, well, there’s no beach), most guests are pleasantly surprised by the overall experience here, especially those looking to unwind; the hotel prides itself on its lack of activities and schedules. The lack of a sand beach has a substantial negative effect on the Overall Beach Resort Rating, downgrading it from the lower B range to the lower C range. In lieu of a sand beach, however, there’s a fairly expansive stone sundeck with lounge chairs and steps and ladders leading down to the ocean, where there’s great on-site snorkeling. There’s no fitness center or swim-up bar, the two swimming pools are quite small and basic, and the rooms are bare bones and dated (no surprise there considering the rock-bottom rates); but the property offers excellent ocean views, romantic al fresco dinners for two, a small spa with open-air seafront cabana treatments (plus in-room treatments), and an on-site dive shop. A free shuttle (twice daily) is available to the sister property, Legends Beach Hotel (Ca2). All-inclusive plans are available but not obligatory. Ciao Jamaica across the street is known in the area for its pizza, and there are a few other restaurants within walking distance.

On-site COVID-19 testing is not available, but the hotel is providing complimentary transportation to and from a testing site in Negril and will cover the cost of antigen tests for guests staying at least seven nights and traveling back to the United States.

TripValue
The TripValue score compares a resort’s Overall Beach Resort Rating to its average room price (which we express as the Price-Implied Rating). It tells you if the resort is relatively underpriced (a positive TripValue), overpriced (a negative TripValue), or fairly priced (an Even TripValue), on average.
