Charela Inn Hotel

The staff was pleasant and helpful, rooms clean and surrounding areas clean plus the beach was well kept. The owner/manager is always onsite and that helps keep employees performing at their best. The in room mini fridge is a big help as I could keep an abundant supply of water and coconut water cold.

Always a fabulous experience! Love the food,people and place

Wonderful property, Mr Geisel family a staff all are very good and thoughtful hosts . From the European atmosphere to the food , food options , hours , friendly staff, clean rooms I couldn’t ask for more I stayed in the old part with garden view worked for my.budget

Right on the beach. Under palm trees with a nice breeze. It’s the perfect spot for a restful vacation. The restaurant is a great place to start the day with a great choice of breakfast plates. The bedrooms are roomy and comfortable and the staff is very friendly.

Cleanliness, staff service always respectful and accommodating. Entertainment and proximity to beach and safe atmosphere. Definitely will stay here again

Our third-floor ocean view room in the new wing was nice though narrow. The bathroom was large and nicely appointed. The hotel is well-located in the heart of the best and safest part of Seven Mile Beach. The on-site restaurant was lovely and the food was good. The clientele was primarily 50-plus with some families sprinkled in. We liked that they were evenly distributed between Germans, French, Canadians and Americans. The whole place, especially the beach with its lush trees that provide necessary shade, had a comfortable, moderately upscale vibe that, fortunately in our view, also wasn't ostentatious. BUT. It turns out that there is fierce competition for the shade, such that, at least in high season, one of your party will have to arise at 6:30 and go down to the beach and lay claim to some chaises, which also might involve negotiating (as it were) that process with one of the workers who supervises the beach. It also might involve, as it did our case, being told by another guest oozing arrogance that you had no right to put your stuff in an area that was, he maintained, reserved for his group by arrangement with one of those staff. And mind you, you're given no forewarning about this process when you check in or when you first hit the beach. Bummer! We figured it out, but it left a bad feeling. Lastly, twice in the late afternoon when we needed to shower, there was no water whatsoever, a problem that was fixed as quickly and mysteriously as it appeared.

Great spot right in the middle of seven mile beach. Staff was great. Very clean.

I cannot think of enough nice things to say about this resort. This was our first time to Negril & Jamaica in general and I had done an obscene amount of research for this trip. We switched hotels twice (Couples Swept away > Skylark> Charela) due to budgeting and to be honest I was nervous we were not going to be happy with Charela and it wasn't going to be nice or luxurious enough. I was humbled to say the least. While not the most luxurious or expensive hotel Ive ever stayed in there is something about its romantic, rustic vibe and charm that has made it one of my top favorites. The property is unbelievable- this stretch of beach is absolutely gorgeous, I'd wager that it is the prettiest stretch of beach in Negril. This place is so romantic. The staff was polite and efficient. There is the sweetest "family dog" named "Kush" that roams the property and beach and we were sad to leave. Our room was immaculately clean. We paid about $700 less per night than friends staying at CSA and our room was twice as large with a HUGE two person tub, a balcony overlooking the live music stage, and beach. The restaurant? 10 out of 10. The absolute BEST Fresh flaky croissants and ham and cheese omelets served to us each morning on the beach or brought to our room. Eating the most decadent Chicken Alfredo pasta while listening to the band and the waves crash just steps away is a core memory. I never thought I would MISS a hotel as much as I do right now.

Great clean and excellent location on the beach. Beautiful shady beach

I loved staying at the Charela Inn. The staff is welcoming and helpful. We ate many meals there and enjoyed each one. The food service on the beach is wonderful! The rooms could use to be updated. Old furniture drawers were difficult to open and close.
