Some of the rooms are very hot at night.

It is perfectly located on the beach with direct access to glass bottom boats and views of the local fishing boats too. Ask for Deli for a lovely experience to travel out to the island. The whole experience was amazing due to the wonderful staff who work there. Cherie the house keeper took care of us like a big sister, advising and suggesting anything we needed. Des the security ensured we were safe at all times. His presence really brings a great sense of relaxation and freedom. I’d leave my phone and belongings and just go for a swim knowing nothing would be touched. A safe place from home. Cherie and Des is why we would return for the fun, laughter and love the showered us with. They make Drifters what it is.

Bigger windows in the room and a patio to sit outside the room.

Location was very close to the 7 mile beach.

Stayed in April 2024

We did not have water one night, and no light one night. Kitchen needs more equipment and was a bit dirty.

The best is the location! Right on the beach. You get what you pay for. They have live music sometimes which is very nice.

Mosquitos 🦟 need more nets and maybe bombing the rooms every so often to help.

Location great and the staff were amazing and entertaining. Desmond's welcome was truly something special and put everyone at ease. Rum punch is great there also

No shower holder in our bathroom :( Wifi wasn't really working unfortunately.

Really loved our stay here: can't beat the location, just a stone throw from glorious 7 mile beach! Very nice staff and a lovely outside bar and an own stage (!!) with regular live music. Extra shoutout to Desmond who was amazing! The room itself was bare, but clean and exactly as advertised. All was great, especially considering price and location! We did not mind the ventilation at all, the ceiling fan kept us cool enough at night :)

Weak wifi signal in rooms, just needs a modem at the reception area to strengthen signal and problem solved.

The bar, the staff, the ambiance, the live stage shows. The facilities everything works stay was comfortable.

The place Is very friendly and the people makes you feel like you are in a family.

The kitchen needs an update, especially a new fridge freezer, however, it served its purpose. The room was very hot and mosquito nets missing from window overlooking the bar area.

Fantastic location, exceptionally friendly area, beautiful clean beach. Easy access to town and other amenities. Good selection of local shops and restaurants. Felt very safe, thanks to Desmond, and the local people, and their dogs! Christina was an absolute star, a local encyclopedia and general travel agent, all while keeping us occupied at the bar. She made our stay truly memorable, and we made a friend for life! Thank you all- we'll definitely be back!!

The rooms need either air conditioning or bigger windows. It is too hot and uncomfortable to stay in the rooms without proper ventilation.

Staff is lovely. The environment is exceptional

A perfect place to stay if you like 3 times a week live music. 200 m to the beach. The stuff friendly, kind and allways broadly to help. The toilets and showers are very clean. The appliances in the shared kitchen are old but clean. The Root Bamboo is about 2.5 km away. A meeting point for locals and tourists. Live music on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. West Jamaica Beach is about 4.5 km away. A great place to chill with the best jerk chicken I've ever eaten. With one exception: When there is live music at Drifters, Mom cooks. Best food EVER! And right next to Drifters is a kitchen where the locals eat. 3 or 4 different dishes, super tasty and really inexpensive.

They can might invest in some Ac for rooms

The property was very convenient for the occasion I came for

Stayed in August 2023

There were broken glass pieces in the sand on the path that leads to the beach so I couldn't walk barefooted.

It is located on the 7 mile beach so easily accessible to places nearby. The customer service was very good.

Stayed in July 2023

Rooms were hot, needs better cooling system. Communication regarding room prices differ on arrival.

Love that the beach is right next to the property. Room rates were affordable. Housekeeper Stacey was really helpful and nice.

I can’t really complain

That it was a good price for being right on the beach

Possibly the worst internet of any hostels I stayed at in Jamaica, if you are a digital nomad this place won't work but you might be able to use the internet from the resort next door (it was open and free when I visited). Also, not the best place for solo travelers unless it's high season, it's more for couples of a group of friends.

You are right on the beach, the only hostel of this kind in all of Jamaica I believe. Great value for the money, all amenities you might need are nearby. Bar on site and cheap food right next door.
