Has anyone been to either of the FDR resorts in Jamaica? Good or bad experiences?

Question

We are planning a trip in march with a 2 year old and 4 year old and wanted to see if anyone has stayed at either of these resorts

Answer 1

We absolutely loved it. We did go in September, so it was relatively quiet. The diving was actually very nice and easy. The staff was unbelievable to our children. Basketball, ping pong, birthday party, Nintendo, shell hunting, fashion show, hermit crab races. My son is married to some little blonde girl in New Hampshire or somewhere. I understand the wedding was nice. Dining was fine, french fries and a hot dog always available at the grill.

To give you an idea, one evening, we were eating dinner, and my 1 1/2 year old daughter was fussy, and one of the staff, a very young lady, comes over and asks, "may I pick up your daughter?". She took my daughter, rocked her, and sang her a soft and gentle song. She walked with her in the immediate area for 15 minutes while we finished our dinner. It was very much an "ahhhh" moment. There were more moments like that. My son, 4 at the time, was so tired by Thursday of the week we were there, he took up thumb sucking again.....He would see us by the pool or somewhere, and go out of his way to not make eye contact, he was afraid we would make him come with us.

And if you were wondering, our nanny should have been put up for sainthood. She was that good to our kids.
