Synonymous with spotless sandy beaches, reggae roots and ceaseless warm weather, Jamaica is an island nation in the Caribbean with a lot to shout about. Sprinkled with secluded bays, luscious green hills and white-sand beaches, Jamaica is a country which caters to laid-back and lively itineraries. The east coast provides an abundance of off-the-beaten-path excursions, including the cascading waters of Reach Falls. Spectacular views can be taken from Blue Mountain Peak – Jamaica’s highest mountain. Bob Marley fans can visit the legendary musician’s birthplace and burial site at Nine Mile – in the northern coastal parish of Saint Ann. With mountain vistas in every direction, the lively capital of Kingston is a real club hub, where you can soak up the nightlife vibes until the early hours. Fill up on some typical jerk chicken and sample some local rums like Appleton or Wray & Nephew while you’re at it.
Jamaica’s coastline is a haven for water sports, with snorkelling, jet skiing and scuba diving all on offer.
In terms of accommodation options, you’ll be spoilt for choice as far as beach resorts are concerned. Guest houses are dotted around and are a good way to soak up the culture and mingle with the locals. If you prefer more privacy, there are hundreds of self-catering villas available to suit all budgets.

Guest review
WOW what an amazing experience staying here !! We stayed over the Xmas period as a treat to ourselves & I am so glad we did!
The pool is gorgeous, super clean & heaps of super comfy gorgeous cabanas around the edge which are all included -no extra costs at this place! We literally hardly left the hotel as it was so nice. They also have a huge spa pool which is also gorgeous & clean!
The staff are all SO FANTASTIC! Every single staff member was welcoming & helpful, going out of their way to ensure the stay was amazing.
The food is yum ! The included breakfast was the best we had anywhere on our trip, they had a full Jamaican breakfast, plus bacon & eggs, omelettes & pancakes cooked to order, bagels, cold meats & cheese & even champagne! We had dinner at the hotel too and all of the food was tasty, huge portions!
The room was lovely & super comfortable, very quiet & lux !
There is a huge supermarket & petrol station directly across from the hotel which was very convenient!
Would recommend staying here to anyone & if we are ever back in Kingston it will be my only choice to stay. Thanks for making our Xmas overseas wonderful !

Situated in Negril, Sommerville Resorts has a garden, terrace, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service.
Guest review
We had an incredible stay! The room was immaculately clean, definitely one of the cleanest places we’ve ever stayed. Everything was fresh, tidy, and well-maintained. The property also felt very safe, which gave us peace of mind throughout our trip.
The host was warm, welcoming, and always available to help with anything we needed. Her hospitality was truly top tier, she made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived.
Breakfast was always delicious, with the option of a tasty Jamaican breakfast or a continental one if you preferred. It was the perfect way to start each day.
The location is amazing! It’s just one minute from Rick’s Café and about nine minutes from the party strip, which made it ideal for Dream Weekend. We loved being so close to the events but still having a peaceful place to relax afterward.
Highly recommend this spot, you’ll get comfort, convenience, and outstanding service all in one place!
