Average room rates for a standard 2-queen room look to be around $400 per night, but once you factor in the taxes and resort fee, it's more like $520 per night! I was considering the property for a future trip, but at those rates, I think I'll pass. There are plenty of other nice Hyatt beach properties to choose from that are more affordable...including the all-inclusive places!

Baha Mar GH vs Zilara Montego Bay
Honeymoon coming up next September and we're trying to select our destination. We're down to Baha Mar GH and the Zilara Hyatt in Montego Bay. Incredibly difficult to pick which one since there are no reviews and sparse information on both hotels since they are not open. Does anyone have any insight into either one of these places? Thanks!

I'd say that the Baha Mar is going to be very different than the Zilara. One's a huge complex with a ton of stuff to do, but crowded. For a honeymoon, I would pick the Zilara - more intimate.

A couple of months ago (when they were still scheduled for a 12/2014 Opening), they were offering up to 50% off for prepaid stays into March/April 2015. I was tempted to book one for a quick stay to check it out, now I'm not seeing any lower priced offers for the new dates.
Just checked again, and now they are offering a $298 prepaid rate in July.

I just tried to make a reservation for the holidays 2015, specifically December 25 thru the 28th and was told the hotel was sold out. I then asked for December 30 thru January 2 and was told no points availability.
Diamond agent noted that it did appear strange, however "they work with an international crowd". It appears everyone is booking their Christmas Holidays. Note that rooms are available for a week before that (December 18 thru December 23).
This seems odd.
