Secrets Wild Orchid Montego Bay

Kids' club & childcare
Not applicable: adults only
Room service
Included. Expedia confirms 24-hour room service is included.
Dining reservations
Restaurant reservation rules are unverified; confirm before booking. Portofino: A wine cellar is listed, but private-dining charges and reservation terms are unverified; confirm before booking. Official materials confirm free-flow access with Secrets St. James next door, whose venues are not counted here. The December 2025 supplier guide describes shared Promenade and St. James venues within its 10 dining options; this is not an independently confirmed count of outlets physically inside Wild Orchid. The guide advertises standard dining without reservations; current table-specific rules are not confirmed, so the existing some-reservations classification remains pending reconciliation. Romantic/private dinner requires advance concierge booking and has variable costs. The guide’s separate Sip, Savor & See section incorrectly names St. James, so no new sister-resort entitlement is inferred.
