Jamaica’s only caviar and Champagne bar can also be found on-site.

Looking for an intimate seaside stay and maybe a room with a view? The Caves in Negril has got you covered! It offers 12 private, thatch-roof, wood and stone cottages set on a cliff with ocean views. A highlight is the cave bar and its “porthole” onto the sea. Other on-site amenities include a hot tub, saltwater swimming pool and a Top Five in Jamaica-rated spa. There’s also plenty to do in the area from kayaking, snorkelling and biking to exploring caves.

Five Gables in Montego Bay is wildly popular with the budget-conscious and backpacking set. Set on a hill in a lush garden, you can choose from a mixed dorm, a double room or a single room.

You’re also just 12 minutes from the restaurant, shopping and nightlife action on “Hip Strip” in town.
