My daughter and I stayed at Starfish for 5 days in March 2006 during her spring break. We enjoyed our stay there and the weather was pretty good...82 and partly cloudy. A couple of days the wind was too bad to sit at the beach so we hung around the pool. Our room was large, freshly painted, and very clean.... more

Our family went in July of 04 The resort was in bad condition. The pools were filthy. The food at the buffet was similar to Cafeteria food at a rest stop. Our room was humid, the A/C did not work properly and the blinds would not shut. We notified management several times but no help. We booked for a week... more

Well, I read a lot of reviews and some of them should maybe think about what country they are in. The Starfish Trelawny was very good. Yes, it is only a three star but, the people that work there are a five. The fun you have is up to you. You can lay around and enjoy the great feeling of... more

Well after 4 visits to the resort it's hard to say we never had a good time or that we dislike the resort. As many other reviews have stated the staff are great, the grounds are well kept and the overall Jamaica experience is unforgetable! I think everyone booking this resort should understand that they will get exactly what they... more

Let me first start with that I am a travel agent and I was a bit apprehensive about staying at this resort because of the rating. I was pleased with what I arrived to. The resort is beautiful, the people are friendly and the food was good. I will say that the rooms are in need of some attention. We... more

Please let people know that this resort has been closed since late 2000 - early 2001. My daughter and I spent our first visit to Jamaica at this small resort. It was the best! It was small, and friendly, and cozy, and full of Jamaican charm! more

My friends and I have just returned from the Starfish Trelawny and we STRONGLY encourage you to not book your vacation at this resort. The staff was very rude and would walk away when speaking to them. We switched rooms 4 times because the balcony door on the first floor did not shut, the beds were wet, air conditioning did... more
