While it’s important to get out and explore the island during a stay, it’s also vital for visitors to have a comfortable place to call their home away from home. We’ve rounded up a few options to consider, but these are only a handful of the many hotels available to book. Read on to check out five accommodations in Jamaica.

Family-Friendly All-Inclusive

Families looking for activities to keep the little ones busy all day can look no further than Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa. Conveniently located about 20 minutes from the airport, this property is ideal for families taking a long weekend or a week-long stay. With water slides, a lazy river, kayaking, games and so much more on offer, it’s nearly impossible to run out of ways to spend the day. Top it off with unlimited food and drinks, and everyone in the group is happy.

Energetic Entertainment Awaits

Looking to celebrate a birthday, bachelorette, promotion or just life in general? Guests staying at Breathless Montego Bay Resort & Spa can do just that at this lively adults-only resort. From sipping cocktails at the rooftop pool to dancing the night away at the Silent Disco, a good time is available at every turn. Booking a room at this resort also means having full access to the nearby Secrets Wild Orchid and Secrets St. James.

Where Space Meets Luxury

It doesn’t get much bigger than 400 acres and two miles of beachfront. Guests have plenty of elbow room during a stay at Half Moon. Whether it’s cycling along the path taking in ocean views, strolling the pathways of Bougainvillaea, Oleander and Poinciana or chatting with Trudy, the hotel’s environmental coordinator, there are so many ways to feel immersed in nature. With a farm-to-table approach, guests have options to conveniently dine at one of the on property restaurants or across the street at Sugar Mill Restaurant.

Overwater Bungalows

If unique accommodations are what you’re in search of, you’ll find them at Sandals South Coast. The stars of the show are the Blue Mahoe Overwater Butler Villas, situated over the ocean in the shape of a heart. Want to stay on land and still be surrounded by water? The Rondoval Swim-up Butler Villa with Private Pool Sanctuary option is for you. There is one downfall to booking these one-of-a-kind accommodations though: you might not want to ever leave the room.

A Secluded, Charming Retreat

If relaxation is what you’re after, this quaint hotel is for you. Long days reading books on the beach, afternoon tea and a massage overlooking the ocean is on offer during a stay at Jamaica Inn. Guests can immerse themselves in activities such as a Botanical Garden Tour, yoga, Farm To Skin Foraging or Shop & Cook with Chef Maurice. And if puppy kisses are your thing, you’ll be pleased to know there’s always a resident black Labrador that has her very own cottage and is available to hang out with and take for walks.
