I will never be able to say enough positive things for Coyaba Beach Resort. This was an amazing location for a wedding, and the staff was extremely accommodating for a destination wedding.
One of my top requests for a destination wedding was to find a venue where I was going to be the only bride for the weekend. This is really hard to find, especially when you look at larger resorts like Sandals. I found Coyaba Beach Resort and fell in love. I was able to have the traditional wedding I wanted in a destination location.
To kick off the weekend, we had a welcome dinner on the beach on Friday night with a bonfire afterwards. Then on Saturday, we had the ceremony out on the lawn followed by dinner and the reception. Sunday, we left it open for our guests to enjoy at their leisure.
It was absolutely incredible. The staff went above and beyond what I expected and literally took care of things before I even voiced concerns. They were great to work with over the months leading up to the wedding. The day of our wedding, it did rain and they went as far as drilling holes into the wood patio to help drain the water -- boards that they had to replace the next day!
I would give them 1,000 stars if I could, they were so excellent. It's tough to plan a destination wedding, especially when you are working with vendors that you have never used (or for a location you've never seen!). But this is the BEST decision you could make if you are planning a wedding in Jamaica!
