Grand Lido Negril Au-Naturel, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort - Adults Only

A time was had ! Fabulous experience. I have included pictures of many of the people that I want to thank for such a memorable experience. Everyone is top notch but the pictures are of my personal favorites. Looking forward to repeat trip.

So many things to be disappointed about. First off booked 3 rooms for 4 nights Im a Lifetime Titanium member and will not receive any points because a family member paid for the rooms. At check in we were told we could not sign or use our cc for my mom’s room for incidentals even though she is legally blind and my brother has power of attorney for her. One room not water in shower, another no hot water for couple days After being at the gym and walking back to room, security told me I can’t walk there because I’m not staying there. When she saw my bracelet she told me oh I didn’t think you were staying there. I didn’t know people who stay at au natural hotels have a look. Food at Royalton many restaurants closed. Was disappointed restaurant at Lido closed. Buffet was basically same food both meals (lunch and dinner) every day Security was lacking!! I was off property and walked back on after midnight and guard was sleeping! Once arrive at Hideaway lobby is was in darkness and security said nothing to me. Walking back to Lido not one security guard in sight and lights were dim. No need to stay at Lido for butler or any Royalton property diamond because you can now book dinner reservations on an app. Booked my mom spa treatments and we weren’t allowed to pay by cc or cash could only charge to room which was a pain. Overall not happy with experience at all. Especially being a Lifetime Titanium Bonvoy member. Do not book through Marriott!! Oh we also prepaid before arrival and when we got there was told we need to pay! We visit Jamaica aprox twice a year and will not be back.

This was our seventh trip to Grand Lido Negril since 2014 and as always, we had a fantastic time meeting new people and reuniting with the staff who make our stay great. At the pool bar Peaches, Dwaine, and Andrew went above and beyond to make amazing drinks! We never went thirsty. For entertainment Simone came through, as she always does, to get vacationers involved in games, laughing, dancing and just having fun while at Grand Lido. Captain Kirk also helped keep us entertained while making sure we were well attended to on the pool deck. Ricardo was our Butler, and we cannot say enough good things about him and the excellent job he does. At the Martini Bar Cleon who we have known since 2014 not only made us excellent drinks, but he broke out a deck of cards and did magic tricks just like at the Old Grand Lido during our first stay there.

The staff was phenomenal and the property was nice and clean. Very enjoyable experience. Will surely return . there was something to experience everyday. many restaurants to choose from with this all inclusive resort.

My husband & I were celebrating our 40th anniversary & booked 6 nights at Grand Lido Negril. This is an all inclusive resort that enables access to 2 additional resorts (Hideaway & the Royalton). Our suite had jetted tub, oversized shower with 2 rainfall shower heads plus hand held. We were assigned 2 butlers (Romaine and Michelle) who were fabulous- checking on us, making dinner reservations & Romaine even decorated our room (see photo). Food was wonderful, all staff was friendly & helpful. Grand Lido is adults only & “clothing optional” so if you’re of age I highly recommend Grand Lido Negril!

Hot tub not working place looked worn down Had to have three things fixed in room We were promised a bottle of gin on arrival never got Had to ask to restock coffee pods never restocked snacks Butlers where lazy Simone was the bright spot she deserves a huge raise Food was great

We stayed at this resort after checking out of the Hideaway next door, just for 1 night. Our butler made sure there was a birthday banner was on the door since I was still celebrating and she stayed available. Check in was a breeze, but again they dont allow early check in. Room was basic. This is a nude resort, so there are areas where you have to be nude. Very quiet, chill spot. You can utilize the restaurants and other facilites at the Hideway and the Royalton.

We recently came back from another amazing vacation at Grand Lido Negril, and once again, it did not disappoint. The staff truly make this place special and are the main reason we keep coming back. A big shoutout to Kimika, who always made sure everything was running smoothly. She was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout our stay. Our butlers, Michelle and Romaine, were fantastic — attentive, kind, and always one step ahead of our needs. Simone kept the energy up every day with fun activities and great entertainment. Peaches at the bar was an absolute gem — always cheerful and mixing up delicious drinks. And we have to mention Pleashes, the beach cook, who made some of the best meals we had during our trip. We also had the pleasure of meeting Mark, the new restaurant manager. He’s doing a great job, and you can already see the positive changes he's bringing. Thank you to everyone at Grand Lido for making our stay so enjoyable. We felt welcomed and well taken care of the entire time. Can’t wait to come back!

The service there was phenomenal! Michelle/Romaine/Crystal was super nice and helpful throughout my entire stay. The house keeper toycia was on point with handling my room which was super clean every day I was there. The staff was the best part of my trip! I felt right at home. The food was good it actually tasted like good Jamaican rather than that generic food you get at a RIU. I would definitely go back if I go to negril again. But if the same staff isn’t there when I go back I want a refund lol. Don’t want no one else. Thank you for everything!!!

The friends that I came here with at the Royalton resort we who told me about the experience that I would have when I get here and I definitely appreciate it alot. And I also enjoyed every moment of my vacation. Also, the experience outside of the resort is great we went to different nightclubs and also we went on the 7 mile beach. We had so many drinks. We have so many food and different experiences at different bars and restaurants at the Royalton resort in Negril thanks to JOVIE Prince and also Jace and Chana at the Hideaway and grand Lido and Royalton pool bar thanks to all these hard working and staff It was fun and I will be back.

If you’re looking for that perfect blend of laid-back island vibes, friendly faces, and unforgettable drinks in an all-natural paradise in Negril, Grand Lido resort is the place to be. From the moment we arrived, we felt the energy. The bar is the heart of this place lively, welcoming, and full of great music and even better conversation. It’s not just a bar; it’s a vibe. Special shoutouts to some incredible people who made our experience one we’ll never forget: • Phlisha Her lunch was amazing, and very accommodating • Peaches The mixologist wizard — every drink was perfectly made and she always had a smile for us. • Simone and Captain Spike Brought the energy that kept us dancing and laughing every day. Their warmth, professionalism, and fun-loving spirit are the reasons we’re already planning our return. You don’t just visit Grand Lido Negril you become part of the community. We came as guests — and we’re leaving as friends.

We choose a random time to be here but it qas fun with the classes at the pool with Jovi was great I recommend all sessions to do while you're here the boot camp session start at 8:15 and the aqua fit start at 11:30 yoga is also done here at the hotel for yoga lovers I recommend all classes to do thanks to Jovi, the food choices are good for a vegan as I am it could be better but it's good thanks fir the staffs who worked.

Grand Lido Negril is a great place to celebrate special occasions as a couple. The staff are naturally invested in ensuring you have a good time and always manage to blow my mind each time. Just celebrated my husbands birthday with them and he had the most amazing time. Thanks to Simone, Peaches, Ricardo, Michelle, Kirk and the entire Grand Lido team for always making us feel right at home.

This has been a great stay, good food and awesome staff is all that's needed to dampen the resorts issues. The gym is the best place to be and the instructor Alpha made it even better. The vibe team at night is one of a kind, Baby Dragon and Astro were loaded with energy and care. Overall, staying here will be uncomfortable if you're picky but if ypur simple like I am, this will be an awesome vacation.

This resort is very good. I would like to thank all the staff for a wonderful stay. The pool areas and view were wonderful. Special thank you to Simon for making this trip special as well as Peaches and Antonette. Michele and our other butler were very attentive. Great time and good restaurants. Would love to return and enjoy the au natural experience there again. The rooms were very nice with a great water view as well as a balcony for enjoying the sun sets

Aqua fit with Garrison was amazing he was encouraging and entertaining with loads of energy. The class was 25 minutes and pass by quick. We use the noodles which made the class interesting and better

Yoga with Garrison was an excellent experience. His guidance was clear, supportive, and calming throughout the session. He created a welcoming space that made it easy to relax, focus, and fully engage with the practice. I left feeling both physically refreshed and mentally centered. Highly recommend his classes to anyone looking to deepen their yoga journey or simply enjoy a peaceful, rejuvenating practice.

I attend yoga classes and Pilates The class were gentle, the teachers were kind, non judgmental, attentive which is super important for me as a practitioner to feel tended to, to feel the instructors are paying attention. I thank Andre, alpha, jovie and garrison for being patient and attentive.

Excellent… friendly and non judgemental. Amazing. Class is in good location. Feel the sweat. View is beautiful. Good equipment and friendly. Matt’s and towels were provided and water. ……………………….:::::……………………………………………………………………………

Jovie was excellent and provided us with an amazing TRX workout! I’m definitely planning on coming back to take more classes! The gym is also open at 6 AM and close at 8 PM. The staff are all friendly even at the front desk shout out to all the hard work and staff and also to Jovi for a fantastic TRX session. Do you remember that these instructors do a lot of different classes as well as yoga TRX kickboxing Boot Camp aqua fit and other circuit sessions so while you’re here on vacation, you should definitely try. Thank you for your time and patience hard-working stuff.

Background and context: Wife and I have travelled to Jamaica 6 times previously, all spent in Ochi at Couples San Souci (adult couples only with Au Naturale area). Couples have set a high bar of reference for us with excellent food, service and camaraderie at Sunset Beach. With a recent passing of my mother in-law, we set out to book an all-inclusive family “celebration of life” trip for 12 family members, including our 4-year-old grandson. The Royalton crescent shaped property in Negril (Autograph Collection / Marriott Bonvoy) consists of three separate connected resorts; 1 - Royalton (Family), 2- Hideaway@ Royalton (Adult only), and 3 – Grand Lido @ Royalton (Adult Au Naturale). Family was spread across all three resorts; my wife and I stayed at Grand Lido for the 10-day duration of the trip. Note - this is the only resort in Jamaica, possibly the world that could accommodate this diverse family trip! Self-booking this trip was complicated…. Grand Lido: The Grand Lido resort is isolated at one end of the Royalton complex, blocked visually for Au Naturale privacy and access limited (residents identified by a unique red wrist band). Residents of Grand Lido have access to all the restaurants and amenities from Hideaway and Royalton resorts. Grand Lido only dedicated food and drink (Lunch/Afternoon only) are located at the secluded Grand Lido Pool / Outdoor area. Grand Lido rooms: We had a swim out suite. Open the patio door and step right into the pool. An awesome way to begin and end your day! Large, clean and comfortable, the room is equipped with a Jacuzzi tub and double rain shower heads. The room had a stocked mini bar and safe. A call out - housekeeping service from Toysia was excellent! Grand Lido Butlers: Think of the Butlers as your personal assistant for your stay. Our Butlers, Michelle and Romaine helped make this trip EPIC! Easy communications with both of the via WhatsApp and in person. They were keenly focused on us having an excellent experience and helped us tremendously coordinating the activities and reservations for all 12 of us. Grand Lido Pool / Bar / Food / Activities: The pool area is the heart of the Grand Lido experience. The “Mayor” (as we call her) of this area is Simone Johnson, an amazing human who leads wickedly enjoyable activities. She has a huge heart, wonderful sense of humor and made this trip unforgettable. The swim up bar was tended to by yet another amazing person – Peaches, who mixes up the most excellent drinks, is personable and a joy to be around. The chemistry between Simone and Peaches is excellent – all smiles! Last but not least, our Lido grill chef Phelisia whipped up the BEST food we had at Royalton. Tasty and tailored – really good. Supporting cast of Tameka, Kirk and the Acqua-Fit team reinforced the excellent experience. All of these wonderful people work well as a team to support, nurture and form a camaraderie of Au Naturale residents. We have many new friends from this trip who with newly shared excellent experiences! Grand Lido Front Desk / Lobby: Grand Lido is fortunate to have Crystal Gayle running the front desk! She was invaluable and personable, untangling our mess of reservations (6 total rooms, 12 people across 3 resorts) navigating broken processes and making it look easy... Always focused on creating excellent guest experience and owning issues to resolution. Final Thoughts: This was an excellent 5-star trip that brought our family even tighter together, yet opportunities exist for improvement (through my eyes as a well-travelled former executive and Marriott Bonvoy Titanium for Life member). 1) Food quality very inconsistent – more institutional than 5-star level with exception to Lido lunches. No comparison to consistently excellent food at Couples. 2) Buildings / pools in need of maintenance and/or renovation (missing tiles, broken hot tub etc....). I understand that Lido is closing for 2 months this summer to address. 3) Solicitation for excursions / time share a bit heavy. I was clearly targeted with 6 rooms, 12 people across 3 resorts – people knew my name... 4) Broken processes in restaurants – I don’t need to be asked 2+ times at every restaurant if we have food allergies (hostess/host and then wait staff. Ask us once. All said, we can't wait to return!!

The butler service (Michelle and Romaine) are absolutely wonderful! They accommodated us the whole time, drinks, dinner, activities, you name it! They also set up a romantic foam bath with balloons and grass tapestries to celebrate our engagement! Simone, Peaches, and Captain Kirk at the pool hosted us for such a fun time with the trivia, entertainment, drinks, lunches and hospitality! What an amazing trip for our first time in Jamaica! ❤️

The staff here is amazing!!!! Michelle & Romaine were our butlers who took such good care of us. The pool staff: Captain Kirk, Simone, Gaylana, Peaches, Damon & so many others were so warm & welcoming. The place is gorgeous but we will always come back for the staff. They are what make this place so special.

The Grand Lido Negril is where you want to go if you like to be naked in the sun and be pampered by the friendliest people on the planet. Our butlers, Romaine and Michelle, were outstanding and went above and beyond on several occasions. You should not hesitate to request them for your trip. The activities coordinator at the pool, Simone, was a hoot. She kept us laughing all day as did Captain Kirk. You can tell they love their job and they made our vacation so much more enjoyable. We had the presidential suite. It was very large and the hot tub on the deck was great. They actually changed the water in our hot tub daily. However, we did feel a little out of things so we booked a swim out room for our next trip. But if you prefer lots of quiet time, the suite is a great option and it is only a short walk down the stairs to the pool area. The food was reasonable, but it was not as good as we anticipated. When we were last at a Lido resort, more than 20 years ago, the food was spectacular. The quality has definitely declined, but there were exceptions and some of our meals were excellent. We were blessed with an excellent group of people which always makes a huge difference on an all inclusive vacation. If you’re planning a trip in April 2026, you can party with some fantastic people between April 5 and 20. Hope to see you there!

The entertainment patry was good and the games was good shout out to twinkle and drongan fly for a great time Andrew the bartender at the hideaway bar was amazing he served some very creative drinks for me and my I family he was friendly as well,Jovie was an amazing influence and and a excellent instructor he was off the chain and Antoinette from chairman bar was amazing at the bar too keep up the good work and the gym is great too and I will be back soon thanks to 50 the from the tour team too thanks to all.

Jovi, aqua fit class was amazing, I would recommend to all guests who visit the Royalton, Jamaica is the place to come, run out and join his sessions with jovie and you will have a unique and fun time while you are here i love it in 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 jamaica thanks Andrew for good drinks 🍸.

It was great Jovie and twinkle was amazing instructor and entertainer at the main pool that was done in the morning they started the class at 11:30 am and I was always ready to join in as soon as I heard knock on wood song,they all did a good job and the bartenders as well Music and vibe can be better at the pool as well For the entertainment activities But I see where they are trying .

Had a great time! Exceptional service from staff: Simone, (made every day special) Peaches(went out of her way to get me the right olives from my martini) , Phlisha (cook),( out of her way to serve authentic cuisine ) Kirk ( kept us hydrated) and Andre, our exceptional fitness coach who went out of his way to provide services on premises. Whatever class we wanted he provided. These people couldn't do enough to make our stay fantastic. I totally recommend this place. Food, drinks, service is great. Can't wait to come back!!! F

Our first time to the Grand Lido au Naturel, wont be our last. From the minute Kim check us in, we had a few hiccups with cabanas , everything else was perfect. Condley, Tianna our hosts (don't like the word butler) made sure we had everything and more that we needed for our 12 Anniversary, dinner on the beach, cabana reserved, making our dinner reservations. They are a great team and work great together and with guests. I will be asking for them next year. Roshane bbq lunch by the pool and food truck after that ,ran out of nachos at the food truck gave me nacho french fries instead MMMMMM. Conrad, TJ beach service was excellent made sure our cooler was full at the cabana, brought lunch, with many different styles of jerk chicken/pork. Syrena also beach service so pleasant walking through the sand and the heat. Justin the Royalton Manager very personable shared some life experiences, we all go through, my husband still keeps in contact with him. Thank you everyone who made our 12 Anniversary extra special, that we've decided to go back next year for lucky 13. Ciao for now N&T

This gym is very high quality, with a lot of new machines. Even though it is small, it leads to a very high quality workout. Jovie helped me out and he was a very nice person. All of the staff were very kind. I would definitely recommend this gym for your vacation.

Gym is has a lot of variety. You can hit a lot more stuff. I wish there was one more chest machine. Jovie at the gym was cool,the time when the gym open is at 6 am and it closed at 11 pm at night I will be back soon for more fun time with the family for sure.

I found Alpa's Aquafit class to be both challenging and rewarding. The yoga class was also superb; the instructor's kind and compassionate demeanor created a supportive atmosphere, especially for those new to yoga. I am now dedicated to maintaining a consistent exercise regimen. Their diverse class offerings cater to individuals of all fitness abilities.

I recently attended a yoga class with Kavi and it was a fantastic experience. kavi was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive, providing clear guidance to improve my practice. The class was well paced with a perfect balance of challenging poses and relaxation.

This place is amazingly private, and definitely for adults. It you want to live life on the edge and want a nude beach with grown ups then this place is for you.

There was nothing to dislike

We have been to this property 9 times now and the staff are what makes our stay so wonderful! Our butler Michelle is wonderful! I can’t sing her praises enough! There was not one thing we requested that she did not make happen! She is very attentive and is so nice! She is one of the greatest assets to this hotel! Peaches, the bar tender is the nicest person and always kept everyone happy and drinks filled! Kirk and Shaneka are the best also! They were constantly making sure we had drinks and food, they came to us at our swim out, the upper pool, and the hot tub. Simone is the best with activities! She kept us laughing and entertained the whole time! She is also an asset to your hotel and Vibe team!! The cook, Daria was phenomenal! She worked so hard everyday and the food was the best on the property!! Really enjoyed the Dazzle Night Party that was for Grand Lido and Hideaway guests only, food was great and so was the entertainment!

It does need some attention to maintenance issues, but every hotel needs constant upkeep. They changed the menu at Armadillo restaurant and it’s not near as good as the old menu! Please bring back the old menu! The ramp and walkways around the Grand Lido pool needs some kind of safety as it is super slick and there was like 6 people that fell due to the slickness. Also need more umbrellas at the sun chairs and around the main pool, there is no way to get out of the sun in the upper pool for those who can’t be in the direct sun all day.

everything was great about the stay at this resort - highly recommend it !

The only thing was that the dinner buffet restaurant at the royalton did not let me into the buffet due to having a tank top on, which I thought was a little ridiculous since we were in Jamaica and everybody wears tank tops (plus it wasn't a fancier restaurant - just casual)

The Butlers, the staff, the privacy, the Ocean Point!

Maintenance issues with room a/c…very hot indoor restaurant seating as well. Marriot needs to focus on more than cost cutting.. they’re most valuable assets there are the employees and they should be treated as such.

I liked everything about the property except it didn’t have its own beach

No beach

Butler service was poor. No AC for 1.5 days

See above

Having butlers. Having access to the entire compound. Choices of restaurants. Entertainment was very good, especially Michael Jackson and dancers. The foam party was very good. Beach party was very good. Views from the room. Liked that it was not a high-rise hotel block but only 3 floors. Selection of drinks. Bath in room.

Overpriced at the salon where I had an okay manicure and pedicure . Disappointed steam and the sauna were not working when we had our hour in the Spa. Unimpressed with the hideaway buffet.

Such a beautiful property and the best staff ever. Hats off to Michelle and Leshan for being such excellent butlers they made my stay very special and attended to all my needs. Also they never stopped checking in with me to see if I was comfortable and needed anything

Breakfast could have more local dishes and most of the time bars was out of premium liquid

The beautiful ocean view with swimout. The daily poolside grilled lobster taills, shrimp,& lamb chops ever. The room Butler services was top notch!! The Grand Lido is #1 on our vacation list.

We had to come home.:(

Everyone was amazing, I stayed nude all week and was unsure and not comfortable 🙃 but 2 minutes in I felt at home and the cloths went off!!!!! I was waited on hand and foot. Something special everyday!!!

Staff, clean, above and beyond service and the whole experience.

The breakfast was good some what ,did not got what we ordered some time. It could have been better.

Butler service could have been better.

Average

Room wasn’t ready rooms don’t get cold some of the staff was friendly but some were not.

I love that the property shared property with 2 other properties which broadened my access to the other properties, people and activities.

N/A

so beautiful and natural

nothing to not like

The resort overall was beautiful with the friendliest staff we’ve met. Grand Lido itself was wonderful and the Butlers and Staff poolside made it a honeymoon to never forgot. We’ve already booked a return

Breakfasts were great

Missed having a beach but you could swim in the ocean by climbing down a ladder. It was wonderful ocean swimming, better than just off the beach where you walk out.

best sunsets and private

pool deck needs repairs

The location is amazing with the best sunset views. My only complaint is that it has no steps from the terrace/beach area to the lower pool and swim up bar.

Not very accessible. The rooms have a tub crossways in the middle making it impossible for a standard wheelchair to get fully into the room

Personal service experience with our butler and staff. Ricardo helped with every detail of our wants and needs. Everything we asked for, Ricardo came through. The food experience was excellent!! Our room was beyond expectations. The swim out suite will be our goto suite next year.

We are unable to think of one thing we didn't like about our stay at Grand Lido.

All inclusive, so the room service was good, and the breakfast buffet was excellent. Lots of good local and theme selections. Scenery was beautiful and we got lucky with excellent weather. Our end of the resort was au natural, and was very comfortable throughout our stay.

We expected a couple only resort, and while mostly true, there was a single male who rented a room, making this a bit awkward.

loved the service, very nice and big rooms, boutique vibe but with access to a huge resort lot

didn’t know this was nudist! we had the swim out pool and stayed with our bathing suits, but didnt stay in the main pools and jacuzzi. so it’s not for everyone.wish the pools and outdoor area would have been cleaner also

The views, room, staff, food, are amazing!

I can’t think of anything I did not enjoy

The location (really close to all the events we went), the food (wide variety and taste exceptional), the staff especially our front desk ladies Tianna and Tanesia and our butler Oraine.

The wait for room service was very long
