Tensing PEN

Tensing pen is our favorite destination for our annual girls trip— the major draw being the amazing massages by maxcine, Georgia and Charmaine! Add to this the charming bartender “razor” and the great wait staff—“splinter” and all the rest and the helpful office staff— wish I could give a 10 star review!

Amazing on every level. We’ll be back! People, vibe, bridge, water, cottages, food. Sunsets! Perfect. Thank you!!!! …,.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,……………………………………………………. Thank you!!!

Returned to Tensing for our 5th visit in so many years. Stayed in the cozy cove cottage with a beautiful view of the inlet and ocean. The staff is so welcoming and being on the cliffs of Negril brings a completely different vibe than on the bays. The Lodge restaurant was excellent as always but will be reviewed separately. This year we mustered the courage to walk to several eateries off property. We have already booked for next year and can’t wait to return!

We recently stayed at Tensing Pen for a few nights. STAFF All the staff made us feel extremely welcome and were always on hand to help. Big respect and mention to Caleen, Sofia Damien and Razor 🙏🏼 . The life guards Paul, Nickoy were genuinely attentive and also very helpful. FOOD and Drink Food was outstanding and the homemade bread rolls melted in your mouth. We had the complimentary breakfast most mornings which was more than adequate with fresh fruit, banana bread, cereal and outstanding coffee! We had poached eggs one morning and again we can’t fault the food quality. Coffee was available at the restaurant 24/7 but we did miss being able to make a coffee in our room. Loved, LOVED the reggae music all day in the restaurant!!!! ACTIVITIES Unfortunately, the weather was quite choppy when we were there so didn’t get to snorkel as we had hoped. However, we thoroughly enjoyed watching the catamarans as they passed by on their way to Ricks. ROOM We stayed in Rock Cottage 2 which had a great view and a beautiful verandah to enjoy the peace and quiet. The bed was very comfortable, AC great and a fridge to put chilled drinks in. Bathroom was more than adequate however the shower was a little fiddly to turn on with an adequate water pressure-. Towels were changed every day. Again it would have been nice to have water and coffee nearer to hand. We did struggle with the sun loungers and found them very uncomfortable after 30mins. Even though I’m allergic to dogs, the dogs are extremely well behaved and only approach if you encourage them. SUMMARY So why only 4/5 ? It did meet our expectations but didn’t exceed them, this is a great place for being private and embracing your surroundings; we enjoyed visiting the local bars nearby but probably could have done more .. the view from our cottage was very hypnotic, but the quietness just wasn’t our vibe. We are so blessed and glad we got to experience this amazing place, it was our first on the cliffs and we look forward to returning to the bar and the restaurant which are definitely a 5/5 for us!

Goergous property grounds and staff. Incredible location. The room itself was dirty and unkept. Do not stay in garden room if you are looking for luxury. Food is meh.

What an amazing experience - Tensing Pen! Tensing Pen was by far one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. The staff and team at the resort were friendly and personal. I went for my birthday and they all wished me warm wishes on the day. They went out of their way to make us feel like valued guests, something you don’t experience at a large resort. Their accommodations are wonderful and the location is a dream. From check in, to dinner to hanging out by the pool at the resort, truly an experience we will never forget. The Tensing Pen resort is the best out there.
