White Sands vs. Country Country

[gregandkelly63]

When we stay at White Sands each year we always book for the next year. We always get the one bedroom apartment. (there are 4 of them at WS). Last week when we were checking out they told us there were no One bedroom apartments available for the first 2 weeks of December 2024! Gasp! They didn't even have any kitchenette rooms available. Oh my!

So....we have booked at Country Country for next December. We booked a premium room with a kitchenette. Since CC comes with breakfast we didn't feel we needed a full kitchen. I've heard good things about CC, so I hope it's good.

Over the past 31 years we have stayed at 11 different resorts in Jamaica, but the past few years WS has been our main resort. Here's to new adventures at a new resort! Cheers!

I feel your pain. White Sands 1 bedroom apartment is the best value on the beach. Country Country has a bigger beach and a great breakfast included. You will be just fine!

Fargoman knows mon'.... We stayed at Country Country a few years ago. The breakfasts were amazing. Really nice staff. Enjoy. The Hi-lo is right across the street.

Sorry to hear that, I know in the past that was how we always booked for the following year. (at the request of management!) It was also a guarantee of getting the Same room and made repeat guest feel like they were coming home!!

You'll probably be quite pleased. Most would consider Country Country an upgrade from White Sands.

We have stayed at country country a dozen times with about 1/2 of the trips before their expansion. I never knew CC had kitchenettes.

Yes, my wife pointed out my mistake in my original post. You are correct.
