Staff are lovely and very helpful, especially Sophie. Loved the landscaping clean beds, majestic ocean views over the pool.

The owner can't help it, but the dogs in the neighboring side kill the peaceful vibes with their howling. Also, need to have remote operated gate - getting in and out of car each time to open and close gate became tedious.

This is place is absolutely fantastic, the setting, the facilities, how well is kept and run. Beside the natural beauty and peaceful surrounding of this place what made the difference for us was the amazing service! Sophia , the manager, what a fantastic host and cook also!! Really a welcoming , homey atmosphere from all the staff working there. We had the pleasure to also meet the owner of the place who told us nice stories and gave us local tips. If you’re looking for a peaceful place with amazing people this is the one!

Everything was just perfect as it was.

absolutely gorgeous - every single detail

Sophia is a wonderful host and a fabulous chef. She worked hard to make sure we had a wonderful home cooked breakfast and was very kind. The buildings are pretty with unique features. It reminds me of a nature retreat without modern commodities. The gardens were beautiful. The lifeguard kevin was fun to have while we used the saltwater pool.

I had a rat in my bed this morning. The mosquitoes were horribly bad. We also had roaches and lizards in the room.. No air conditioning was much worse than I anticipated. The cottages are not beach front, they are across the street and behind a concrete fence so there is no breeze to help with the muggy heat. We were completely bit up by mosquitoes which was miserable in the heat. The mosquitoes were in the rooms and the mosquito net around the bed didn't help. We had to turn off all lights as soon as it got dark trying to keep bugs from coming in the cottage. The waves were too big and went over the saltwater pool so we could not really cool off at all. There are no doors to have privacy in the bathroom so it was hard to shower or use the toilet without the family seeing into the bathroom from the living room.. Extremely overpriced especially for the location in comparison to another resort we stayed at in Negril which was half the price. This one was non refundable so we were stuck. The location was so far away from any restaurants or stores. They had security at night because the location was sketchy.

Lovely rooms, lovely staff, lovely grounds! It has a stunning greenery with all kinds of fruits and vegetables. The room by the ocean is beautiful and the entire grounds are welcoming and relaxing. We even got to meet the owner, such a great experience!

Sophia was amazing the day I arrived it was raining hard and the property was flooded in front where taxis couldn’t pass. she carried my friend and I to town to get food. I liked the pool view it was beautiful. The property has a lot of potential you can tell it was just recently reopened.

Only breakfast was served no close spots to eat, no bar, no music, since the place just recently reopened it could used a more thorough cleaning. there were a lot of dogs on property that kept me up at night. There were huge cockroaches on our mosquito nets.

My stay at Tingalaya exceeded my expectations. It was so peaceful and tranquil, with gorgeous gardens and vegetation. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. There were puppies there too! I was glad that there were some people, but not too many people. The pool is peaceful, right near the ocean. There is a guest fridge and kitchen to use if you don't want to eat out every day for lunch/dinner. There is a gorgeous yoga room with mats you can use. I would go back here in the blink of an eye - the best place we stayed in Jamaica.

Everything was fantastic! It helped that we had a rental car with us, since some of the places in Negril are a bit too far to get to via foot. One suggestion is to offer connections to a local masseuse, since the setting is so amenable to such things.

Quiet, nature is beautiful, the pool and the chilling area at the seaside - just great! Very nice staff, they helped me a lot with everything that I needed. I just loved the atmosphere here!

You know that when you book but it’s really a bit far away so if you don’t have a car and want to go out it’s a little complicated. Dogs can be loud in the night !
