THis place is a big dissapointment. First of all we were greeted by the guy who takes you to the free bus and then he of course toolk us about 500 feet to the bus and then he shouted in a loud threatning voice :TIMPS MAN" and held out his hand! NICE welcome. Overall this resort is nothing special and I would not return. I am totally confused as to how it is rated 4 stars unless they rated it many years ago. But in general when visiting Jamaica after the long one hour bus ride to the resort past the tin shanties and the unfinished bombed out buildings and the extreme poverty of the people your realise that these people dont like us and really dont want us there! Many are nasty and surly and just crappy folks to deal with. Its just not a nice place at all.to vacation. We have been to three other all inclusive resorts and loved them all except Grand Lido Braco and the entire island of Jamaica. Aruba and Costa Rica were both very nice with a poplullation who I felt wanted us there, I real a lot of review like this but unfortunatly I had to go because that is where my son was getting married but if you dont have to go PLEASE save yourself the agony and go somewhere else where you wont have to hear TIPS NOW MON!

Have read many reviews about the LIdo Braco and can say that 90% of the people writing about it WERE RIGHT. there is always room for improvement in everything, so the Lido Braco is no exception, but being our first time in Jamaica and our first time in an Au Naturel Hotel such as this our stay was fantastic, met lots of people that made our stay pleasant, the staff could not do more to make our stay pleasant, everywhere you turn, there was somebody with a smile on their face willing to provide assistance. Yes, the beach on this side of the island is rocky, so bring your water shoes, is small but private, no closing time for the beach or swimming pool. the hot tubs need some work, but the big one is working fine. all in all, we enjoyed our stay and do plan to return soon.

Rocky beach you can't walk out into water. Most women bartenders are not friendly. Snorkeling trip canceled after being told for 2 hours we were going. Food is average at best. Daily activities were not as scheduled. Food and beverage service is extremely slow. Beautiful and safe. Excellent massage. Transportation people are friendly. Nice pool. Wonderful HOT climate. Clean rooms with balcony. 24 Hour bar and room service people are the best. Nightly activities make for a good night.

I wouldn't stay here again, the service was slow and you some times felt like you were a bother to the femal bartenders. They would give you half your order walk away and then look at you funny when you asked for your second drink again. However the bar tenders in the main dinning area were great. I've done all inclusive before and have certain expecations for service and quality. They did not meet either. It was slow so the opportunity to treat guest special was there, but the staff did not use the opportunity. Our air conditonar was broken for two days, they came and fixed it when one of the maids thought she smelled gas. When we asked about the dampness they told us it is the weather. We did have beers waiting for us when we arrived, however it required a can opener to open them but there was none in the room. We were able to use the bathroom lock to open the first, but did have one delivered to the room. It would have been nice if one was already there.. We got random prank calls at night, people hanging up after we answer the phone, it was creepy. The hotel is located off a busy road. You could hear cars beeping and driving buy all day and night. This took a little from being in the tropics. The activites did not occur as often as described. I wouldn't recomend staying here you can get better service and quality for the price we paid. I will say however the beach was clean, the water was nice and the scene was beatuful

Grand Lido Braca Saved Our Wedding!!

We went to Jamaica to get married in March of 2009 at Hedonism III. Unfortunately once we arrived there we were not comfortable with the amount of sexuality on public display and we did not want to get married there. We were very upset and demanded that we be moved to another SuperClubs resort. Enter Grand Lido Braca. They not only found a room for us on a few hours notice, but they even upgraded us to a room on the beach for no extra money because of the troubles we had already experienced. The real kicker was how seamlessly they were able to prepare our wedding ceremony on two days notice and pull it off without a hitch. The ceremony was beautiful and the staff was SUPERB in their attention to detail in every aspect of the ceremony. Grand Lido Braca is EXCEPTIONAL in every sense of the word. The customer service is beyond reproach, and every single staff member we met was friendly and always striving to make our experience a better one. In addition, the food choices are incredible. We ate at a new restaurant every evening and every meal was delicious. If you are looking for activities there are plenty to be had at Grand Lido Braca. While there we played golf, scuba dived, enjoyed the spa, and all of this was free...included in the price of our room. If you like it quiet, the pool was idyllic and we spent many hours relaxing on a float in the tranquil waters. Lastly, if you are a person that enjoys the clothing optional lifestyle, Grand Lido Braca does have a portion of the resort that is clothing optional. However, unlike Hedonism, their truly is separation between this side and the rest of the resort.
