Most of the reviews are quite accurate. The resort is excellent if you would like to be able to relax a bit with small children. The nannies are great, prevalent and willing to do as much or as little as you want. Most of the...More
If you've read even a small handful of reviews on FDR, you probably already have a very accurate picture of the resort and you know why people come here: The nannies. We just got back and it was exactly as we expected. We spoke to...More
Just returned from an awesome stay at FDR. It was our first trip to Jamaica, traveling with a 3 1/2 month old and a 3 1/2 year old. Normally I wouldn't even consider traveling abroad with a baby so young; however, the resort assigns a...More

We tipped a few dollars here and there when we ordered drinks at the bar. We also tipped our nanny at the end of our stay ~$150 (we had two young kids she cared for). I think you could tip less frequently in larger sums... More

There is a request form you can complete daily. The Nanny will get the items from the commissary. It is a limited menu with basics such as cereals, coffee, juice, cheese and crackers, etc.

There is a request form you can complete daily. The Nanny will get the items from the commissary. It is a limited menu with basics such as cereals, coffee, juice, cheese and crackers, etc.
Beyond that we had a small bag the nanny could carry with sunscreen and anything the kids might need.
The nannies have a one hour break for lunch.
The work day is from 8:40-4:40. Anything after that was $12 cash per hour.
We kept our nanny two hours extra two evenings. She bathed the kids and got them dressed for dinner.
This was our first experience and it was a bit awkward at first.

We took the shuttle and it is long depending on what other hotels people are going to. It is a drive but I think the free shuttle would be fine considering you will take up four seats.
