A Magical Retreat - Tensing Pen Hotel What a beautiful surprise! My husband and I travel extensively, and we believe that the hotel you choose plays a significant role in making a vacation truly memorable. I can’t say enough good things about the Tensing Hotel—it’s simply magical. From the moment we arrived, it felt as though we had the entire place to ourselves. We stayed in a villa with an ocean view, and it was worth every penny of the upgrade. Waking up to the sight of the ocean each morning was nothing short of breathtaking. The food at Tensing is exquisite. The quality, the menu—everything is prepared fresh to order by a talented chef. It’s a paradise, secluded yet sophisticated, with a design that beautifully reflects Jamaican culture. We are definitely coming back! Beyond the hotel itself, the Jamaican people are incredibly kind and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. I don’t think this warmth is unique to just this hotel; it seems to be a hallmark of Jamaican hospitality in general.

What an amazing experience - Tensing Pen!
Tensing Pen was by far one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. The staff and team at the resort were friendly and personal. I went for my birthday and they all wished me warm wishes on the day. They went out of their way to make us feel like valued guests, something you don’t experience at a large resort. Their accommodations are wonderful and the location is a dream. From check in, to dinner to hanging out by the pool at the resort, truly an experience we will never forget. The Tensing Pen resort is the best out there.

Enjoyed every part of this resort. Quiet, intimate, great food, beautiful grounds, amazing cliffs, no beach beggars, friendly staff, 3 beautiful dogs on site, snorkeling and bridge jumping! Just a great experience and I will definitely go back and recommend. If you are looking for a crazy drunken party scene you won’t find it here. If you want cheap all inclusive food you won’t find it here. This is a place to unwind and relax. Perfect for what we wanted.

The check in, the staff, the premises were all amazing. I wish I stayed here for the entire trip but everyone suggested that I split the trip between the cliffs and the beach. Truth be told, when I booked, they only had one night available. It was worth it. My god what a beautiful place! The views, the food and the staff. I experienced some homophobia in Negril but not at Tensing Pen. So thank you! I will definitely be returning!

Spectacular Views
We typically stay on the beach when we visit Jamaica but I decided to try something new so we stayed West End side of Negril instead of 7 mile beach. It was my husband birthday celebration and we were NOT disappointed. We loved it!! The views were out of this world spectacular. The grounds were quiet and tranquil and full of trees and flowers. Our ocean view room was breathtaking. We watched the sunset from our balcony. We had trees surrounding our balcony so it felt like we were on a private island. Some additional details beds were super comfortable I personally hated the pillows because they were soft instead of firm. There was no TV in the room but we didn’t care. We wanted to relax. Bathroom was very spacious but water pressure not so great. My only complaint is against the food. I wasn’t impressed and to be fair my husband is a chef so my palette and standard is VERY high. I thought food was a bit overcooked for my personal taste. Otherwise staff was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here and we will definitely return. Bonus this location is walking distance to the famous Rick’s Cafe.

An absolutely amazing property with attentive caring staff. This is my second trip to Negril and my first visit at this property and it will be where I return in the future. You are made to feel like family. You are close enough to 7-mile beach to get there via a short taxi ride, can walk to Rick's, and yet it feels isolated, peaceful, and quiet. Just perfect.
