Are  you talking about the new Azul Sensatori opening up in Negril? (according to their website, in November 2013) The one in Mexico looks amazing and I've heard only amazing things about it but my FI and I ruled out Mexico for our wedding. Jamaica is one of our top choices but I couldn't find any info about the new Azul (obviously since it's not opened yet)

 

Have you been in touch with their wedding coordinator? I don't want to assume their packages would be similar to Mexico since they are such difference countries and culture.

 

thanks!

 

@pzl101 I have been in touch a little with the wedding coordinator. She does not have a lot of details yet, but was able to share that they have the Pear and Silver Wedding packages and will NOT be offering a Free, Sweet wedding package. Both of these packages include up to 20 guests, so I am currently waiting to hear what they can do for a large group of 50-75 guests.

My travel agent is trying to get her on the phone this week with me. Would you like an update if this happens?

By "pear" I meant "Pearl". Hope this helps!

Yes, that would be great. We are leaning towards Secrets but nothing set yet and I am interested to hear how Azul in negril will be.  Thanks and happy planning!

Nice! Did you visit already? I have a phone call with Perla the WC at Azul Negril n the morning, so I will let you know how it goes. I think it might be out of price range, but we will see!

No visit - just narrowed it down by the reviews and help here on BDW from previous Secrets brides. I was in Jamaica this past May and loved it. I stayed in Runaway Bay, not Montego Bay and the beach there was gorgeous - I was really worried about the quality of the MB beach but I read a lot of reviews on TripAdvisor that it's nice too.

 

We're having a small wedding (20-24 people) and felt Sandals, Riu and Iberostar were too big for what I wanted and Secrets looks like it has a nice balance of luxury and intimacy - Azul looks like that too which is why I'm interested. Although you're right, it looks a lot pricier!

She did not answer this morning for the phone call. Bummer. Will let you know when I hear back. Secrets do look very . If we didn't have children in the group, we would do Secrets or the Sandals in Whitehouse.

ok, no problem

 

 sandals whitehouse was our favorite if sandals was in the running. But we have too many singles coming.

Mamzaleg- Our top four that seem to meet these requirements are: Grand Palladium, Half Moon, Azul Sensatori, and Iberostar Rose Hall Suites. I know Iberostar only does one wedding a day. I have also heard good things about the Riu Resorts. Hope this helps a little! Have you had any luck?

YES. I have also decided on Iberostar Rose Hall Suites. I love the one wedding a day!!!

Hi, I am getting married in July 2014 at the new sensatori Jamaica!! I am so excited! Had anyone else booked there wedding there yet?

[TaraHall]

Can I ask the rates you got per night for guests at this Azul? I have looked into it a lot, but I'm not sure if it will be too spendy for guests. I would also love to see more pictures than the website currently has. Congrats on choosing a resort! I'm sure it will be beautiful!
