Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Ironshore
Breathless Montego Bay is Jamaica's most social all-inclusive resort — a young, energetic property with multiple pools, live entertainment, a beach club atmosphere, and an 'Unlimited-Luxury' concept that appeals strongly to travellers seeking active, social Caribbean holidays.
Hip Strip
S Hotel is Montego Bay's boldest boutique statement — a design-forward property on the Hip Strip where Jamaican art, local materials, and a distinctly urban energy create something genuinely different from the traditional resort experience.
Rose Hall
Round Hill is Jamaica's most legendary luxury retreat — a 98-acre private estate west of Montego Bay where Grace Kelly, Noël Coward, and Audrey Hepburn have all sought refuge. The 36 private villas, some with their own pools, deliver an exclusivity that has remained entirely consistent since 1953.
Hip Strip
Sandals Royal Caribbean delivers the brand's signature all-inclusive luxury on a prime beachfront site on the Hip Strip, with the added distinction of a private offshore island accessible by footbridge — one of the most romantic dining and spa settings in the Caribbean.
Ironshore
Excellence Oyster Bay occupies a dramatic peninsula in Ironshore with the ocean on three sides — one of the finest natural settings of any resort in Jamaica. The adults-only, all-inclusive formula is executed here with exceptional food and a spa of genuine quality.
Rose Hall
The Hyatt Zilara is Rose Hall's most stylish adults-only all-inclusive — a dramatically designed resort with multiple pools stepping down to a private beach, exceptional dining options far above the all-inclusive norm, and ocean views from almost every room.
