Priceless Seaview.  My Airbnb host was Elizabeth, my condo was on the 9th floor.  It was an incredible experience.  Right on the "hipstrip"  within walking distance to everything- Casino, Margaritaville, the beach, supermarkets.  Downtown taxi is only a 1.00 US or a nice walk.  My unit was recently renovated, it was like home away from home.  All new appliances, I was impressed and highly recommend this host.

PRICELESS SEAVIEW - amazing experience 

It was a one of a kind experience. All the staff was very pleasant and welcoming through our stay, the only thing I can complain about is the 1500 coupon book that can't be used for anything or very little. Need less to say we left it there as our gift to you from us, it did us no good. Wasted paper.

Girls trip 

I sat most days/nights on the balcony overlooking the ocean. In the morning/day you can see cruise ships, tourists, sellers and locals walking by. They have security at both entrances. Plus a supermarket on the second floor where you can get alcohol, some local items or toiletries. It is a hop skip to the beaches. Doctors Cave Beach is directly  in front of/adjacent the building. Or you can turn right onto "Bottom road" and go to the free beach "Dead end beach". You can watch the sunset on the balcony or at the here beach. About 11 minutes walk from the apartment to get to the free beach. Also , there is Pork Pit for grilled pork  and chicken just 10 minutes walk away. Margaritaville, Tracks & Records (Usain Bolt's Restaurant), Brewery are all areas that you can go to for nightlife. There is also a Starbucks adjacent to the apartment too. Also, if you are looking to get around to places outside of Montego Bay like Negril(for Rick's Cafe), St Anns (Dunn's River Falls or Green Grotto Cave), you can hire a tour guide. A child hood friend of mine (Dwight Service) I found out has been doing tour guide for about 2 years out of Montego Bay. His company is "Smart Travels Jamaica Ltd." which you can check for reviews  on facebook or on trip advisor @ https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147311-d16820415-Reviews-Smart_Travels_Jamaica-Montego_Bay_Saint_James_Parish_Jamaica.html

Felt safe and loved the proximity to the highlights. After 14 years I made it home (to Jamaica)

Our room was amazing, but when we meet another couple and came to their room, we were shocked, their room wasnt renovated from 70th, what a shame!
Our room was fully renovated, very stylish, granite counters, all necessary kitchen equipment, huge bad with great mattress, extra pillows, beach towels...
Building itself is old, but rooms are can be from wow to disaster. Air bnb let you to book specific room, so check pics carefully. We rented from Karl and we already booked our next stay with him

Rooms are very different, depends from owner

Me and my family and my carer stayed at the riu montego bay hotel in Jamaica we arrived on the 4th February and departed on the 18th February 2019 the hotel was very clean and the staff all went out of there way to make sure we enjoyed our stay the rooms was clean and spacious and all the restaurants was very clean and food was awesome could not fault it at all the pool was brilliant and the beach was clean and tidy also the hut on the beach served the jerk chicken which was really nice after being there a few days we had a gift outside our room which was jamaican coffee on our 2nd week there my carer was in the buffet restaurant with us all when he went to drink his glass of juice and the glass shattered in his mouth and spent 2days in hospital I think it was the assistant manager for riu Patricia she was Spanish she was so good to us and helped us a lot phoning the hospital for us and also paying for a taxi to take us to the hospital and bring us back I would also like to thank chocolate from the entertainment team for making us have such a good holiday we will miss her very much her smile a d her friendly personality we would deffenatly go back there again if it's only to see chocolates smiley face and her happy go lucky attitude we are all missing her so much xxx thank you all Carl grindrod

Holiday

Great location especially to Doctor's Cave Beach-right across the street.
The apartments are individually owned and maintained and it appears that their condition spreads from one end of the spectrum to the next. The apartment I got was in great condition and had great views.
Overall the building needs some updating including the elevators. The outer walls need to be painted and power washed. The hallways and shared spaces need to be more welcoming.
Security guards are always at both entrances, however it appears that at the back entrance there is always a congregation of street people and drug dealers. I felt somewhat insecure both during the day and more so at nights. Something should be done about this.
Conclusion: It is a GEM but Trip Advisor should encourage the management to improve the appearance and security of the building. Failure to get changes, Trip Advisor should definately take this property off their listing.

Great location to the airport and all attractions for the urban visitor.

I read reviews prior to booking . While the place is affordable, the pictures online are not a great representation of the place . The rooms are spacious, upstairs and downstairs condo style . Toilet downstairs flooded on night 1. Good thing two other toilets were available in room
Where we rented . Online says free WiFi . However, I paid $6 a day . 

Location - great location. Elevator ride to hip strip , restaurants , stores and beaches . 

Overall the place can use some updating especially the furniture and rooms 

My boyfriend and I stayed here for Valentine’s Day and the photos online made it look like an upper class resort. It is nice, but definitely not as advertised. Maybe we got our hopes too high. We paid extra for an oceanfront view and we received a corner room with a view of vines, power lines, and the ocean in one small portion of our balcony. The queen bed was two twin beds pushed together. The condominium itself was spacious & we had an extra pull-out couch/bed so had we had more guests, it definitely would’ve been nice having the extra space. The hot water only lasted about 3-4 minutes, so my boyfriend and I had to plan our showers. Overall, it’s definitely sufficient but not what we expected.  

Sufficient but not Amazing

Went to Montego Bay for a short vacation. Rented via Airbnb through Karl Lawrence. I have to echo some of the thoughts posted by other users.  Unfortunately he is what gives Airbnb a bad reputation and should be removed from their platform.  His place is quite run down, pictures although capture the space unfortunately do not give a clear indication of the state it’s in. Could use a good clean, new coat of paint (at the least) and perhaps an update of some of the amenities. As they say: you got to spend money to make money. These rental units require some modicum of capital and maintenance expenditures. Thats business. I don’t think he understands that though. 

 It was suitable for a week but what was most problematic was the end. Left him a reasonable review as the placed served its purpose. Close to the  beach, close to restaurants as well as lounges and provided us with a descent vacation.  

Karl Lawrence had audacity though to not only post misinformation about my stay but ask for an additional hundred dollars from me. He claims I took one of his mediocre used towels and he submitted the claim to Airbnb asking me to pay for not one but 6 towels. He then goes on to ask for 40 dollars due to a plumbing issue.  Thankfully Airbnb resolved each and denied his claims. 

I get the sense this is a regular occurrence for him. Following this interaction I searched his name-seems like I am not the only one to experience this. 

Be careful with him: the pictures may tempt you but the experience post rental may leave you questioning why you chose his property.

Karl Lawrence: avoid his properties

Location is great on the "Hip Strip". However, multipleissues. First, we did not get the penthouse apartment we booked online. They said that wasn't available. Second, they wanted
 To charge the same price until we vehemently objected. Third, our apartment was not fully cleaned-tub still had sand in it from previous occupant. Fourth, we didn't have hot water. Fifth, the balcony sliding door lock was literaly tying the rope used to hold back the curtains around the door knob. It did not hold the door fully closed so we heard the wind all night. We only stayed one night.
