The hotel

Whilst staying at Jamaica Inn, Winston Churchill swore the light was the best in the world for his watercolours. Jamaica Inn is one of the loveliest small luxury hotels in Jamaica. Now over 60 years old, it retains a gracious air of colonial Jamaica and attracts individuals and couples (some famous), who return on a regular basis. There is a wonderful, natural tranquility about this hotel and it has a lovely location on a private 700 ft white sand beach. Dining is on an outdoor terrace that adjoins the bar terrace. A more romantic setting is hard to imagine, and in keeping with the ‘Noel Coward’ lifestyle, there is a live band most nights. There is a cocktail terrace with a magnificent view and in step with its elegant classic approach, there is a dress code after dark. Bordered by an exquisite 700 ft-long beach, the hotel is in Ocho Rios on the tranquil North Coast of the island. All guest suites face the beach and the turquoise water. Each suite has a verandah or a balustraded balcony and many guests opt to leave the air-conditioning off and allow the sea breeze instead to do the work.

The grounds are beautiful. The service is top-notch. The rooms with very spacious verandas are lovely and perfect for an island location. The food was always delicious and fresh. The charm remains the same for over 70 years. We can’t wait to return!

Dear Gilbert and to all staff Thank you for enabling me to rest unwind and feel refreshed throughout my stay as I now prepare to make my way home. The service in all departments including the music added to a most enjoyable rested vacation. The general ambiance of the hotel was quintessentially English in my humble opinion and a real pleasure. I enjoyed the concept of high tea at 4pm with sandwiches and cake. The hotel is well maintained and all staff were friendly, courteous and wanting to help make my stay truly enjoyable. It felt like witnessing a family team at work all pulling together for the end goal ‘happy guests’. I truly loved playing the piano after breakfast where I was lost in my world of music. I had fun singing with the band and dancing with guest and staff to the song Dancing Queen by ABBA. This rejuvenated woman is ready for the hustle and bustle of city life in London. Read less

Azeeza was a wonderful masseuse and Sheree was very welcoming. I had the cbd massage and facial service. I have had other services on previous trips and always enjoy my choices. The spa offers lovely products. Try the spa on your next visit to Jamaica Inn.
