We traveled as a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 teenagers) and made memories at the FDR that will last a lifetime. The staff and service were AMAZING! From the first day, we felt like we were at home, and that everyone was genuinely concerned that we had activities that suit all our family and we were well fed (we are a combination of vegan/vegetarians)… the food was authentic Jamaican cuisine, everything fresh and delicious!
The kids absolutely loved the pool slide and spent hours on it every day. Our older son went on a scuba dive trip and said it was the best he’d ever done! He got to see a shipwreck and a plane wreck, and the crystal clear waters made it so easy to spot the many species of beautiful fish. Snorkeling trips on their glass bottom boat were readily available and we went several times over the course of our trip. The nightly entertainment was incredible! We experienced fire dancing, another outstanding show displaying the history of Jamaican music and dance from the very beginning through modern day reggae…UNBELIEVABLE!! All of this made the trip more than a typical vacation. We truly felt immersed in the culture.
We did not need the nanny service since our children are older, but the nannies all were so pleasant and wonderful to speak to, and showed genuine care and concern for all the Littles they were taking care of. The kids were always so happy, smiling, and busy. Truly a relaxing getaway and our kids already asking to go back. FDR staff, thank you!!!!
