Jamaica Inn

5* out of 5 stars

Nestled within a secluded cove, on a 700-foot private beach, lies Jamaica Inn. This intimate luxury hotel has held iconic status for 60 years under the care of the Morrow family and celebrities and travellers alike are as drawn to its timeless charm as they were in the 1950’s. It is the ultimate romantic getaway. 

55 finely furnished suites showcase uninterrupted views of the Caribbean Sea, whilst seven luxury cottages boast private pools and ocean access. Start your day at Jamaica Inn with breakfast on your verandah overlooking the Caribbean Sea, go sailing, snorkelling or kayaking, take a nap under your own palapa, or visit The Ocean Spa - uniquely housed in a collection of rustic open-air thatch-roofed huts, surrounded by tropical gardens. Enjoy a game of golf or tennis, only a 5 minute drive from the hotel, or venture to the local farmer’s market with Chef Maurice. After sampling the local fruits, head back to Jamaica Inn for a cooking demo that teaches you ways to prepare traditional Jamaican dishes. In the evening, dine by candlelight under the stars at The Terrace Restaurant and enjoy gourmet cuisine and local Jamaican flavours, while being serenaded by a four-piece band. 

Jamaica Inn partners with a local sanctuary to restore the coral reefs and facilitates on-site turtle hatchings which fortunate guests can witness.

Things to Do at Jamaica Inn

Aside from  relaxing in a hammock or on the crescent-shaped private beach (complimentary fruit punches are served on the beach each morning), Jamaica Inn’s beautiful location also means you can make the most of water sports - try kayaking, sunfish sailing or paddle boarding, as well as snorkelling, with equipment available for guests.

For the more adventurous, Jamaica Inn offers unique experiences that provide a taste of the rich Jamaica culture. Explore the luscious gardens, take a private boat to climb Dunn’s River Falls or take a trip with Head Chef Maurice to the local farmers market where you can learn about local fruits and vegetables, then return to the hotel to make a traditional Jamaican lunch. Master all things Rum, during Rumology class at Teddy’s Beach Bar or make your own organic body scrub at The Ocean Spa using therapeutic plants & herbs found in the gardens.

Whatever your interests may be, there are experiences for every type of traveller.
