About Jamaica Inn

"The family-owned Jamaica Inn, set on one of the Caribbean’s longest private beaches, has been charming visitors since 1950. Head to the library for photos of former guests such as Marilyn Monroe and Meghan Markle. Can-do-anything staff go out of their way to provide a home-away-from-home experience and deliver complimentary “planter’s punch” to your sun lounger daily at 11.30 am.

The 55 suites, cottages, and beach bungalows come with exceptionally large balconies or verandahs serving up sublime sea views; televisions, radios, and clocks are intentionally absent to ensure relaxation. Dinner begins with drinks and canapés al fresco before a five-course menu is served on white-clothed tables under the stars."
