Jamaica Inn

We chose Jamaica Inn for our honeymoon because we were looking for a beautiful, intimate hotel with personalised service, away from the larger resorts in the area. We truly could not have made a better choice. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed and cared for. The entire team at Jamaica Inn went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, consistently exceeding our expectations with their warmth, attentiveness and genuine hospitality. Our room was beautiful and incredibly comfortable, the private beach is breathtaking, and the gardens and thoughtful details throughout the property create such a peaceful and special atmosphere. The food was excellent, and the service was exceptional. Thank you, Jamaica Inn, for giving us an experience we will treasure for years to come. We are leaving today with full hearts, wonderful memories and, already, a strong desire to return. With love and gratitude, Marina & Rafael

Everything

Nothing

The staff were incredible - so warm, friendly and always willing to help. The location is idyllic, very private and close to Ocho Rios without being in the thick of it. I really enjoyed being to snorkel off the beach and see an amazing variety of fish and corals. I felt the value for money was exceptional, considering all the things that are included such as breakfast, activities put on at the hotel, quality of service etc.

Everything was exceptional, however one improvement could be to provide more information about the excursions, i.e. the price, what's included / excluded, duration etc.

The Jamaica Inn is a truly fantastic establishment. The beach is large, spacious, an oasis of calm but also offers a variety of activities such as canoeing, sailing and snorkelling. The food is also delicious and offers a nice variety between local flavours and international. In the evening there is incredible musicians to accompany the meals. Shout out also to the entire team from reception, waiters, beach team and cooks for their warm welcome and making our holiday unforgettable. 10/10

Läget, rummen och personalen

Prisläget på plats!

Herzlicher Empfang, Personal sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit. Die Anlage ist für Ruhesuchende ideal

Exceptionally well maintained.

No TV in room Few activities.

Jamaika ist aktuell in einer schwierigen Situation nach dem Hurricane. Viele (die meisten) Hotels an der Nordküste waren geschlossen. Das Jamaika Inn war offen, perfekter Service, herrliches Gebäude und ein Traumstrand. Perfekt

The location is great. The staff is amazing. The property is well maintained and just very charming. I really love it.

The only thing I'd say that could use some improvement are the sheets/bedding in the rooms and the pillows. They aren't very comfortable and don't really match the standard of the rest of the hotel. Also, the hot water in the shower was inconsistent, but I understand this might have to do with the recent hurricane. Other than that, everything is wonderful and I'll always return and tell others about it.

Prachtige locatie aan fantastisch mooi strand en tuin. Klein koloniaal hotel met veel charme. Voor liefhebbers van rust en overweldigende natuur.

10/10 - my wife and I returned after staying in 2021. We loved everything about our trip and cant recommend the hotel enough. We stayed post hurricane and everything is up and running. The whole experience is old world glamour and charm - understated and elegant.

Beaches

No jogging trail

Beautiful property, superb staff, great food, peaceful, quiet, only wish there were more entertainment options. Love the turtle release we were treated to on our first day, and also loved Shadow, the property dog.

The best place to stay in Jamaica. The staff truly make it an unforgettable experience with genuine warmth and care. The location is fabulous, such a beautiful beach. We loved our time here.

Jamaica Inn is a beautiful stay with peaceful vibes, kind employees, and gorgeous beaches. Our stay was incredible, the food was great, staff was very hospitable, and every day felt like a day in paradise. We recommend this hotel to everyone and will absolutely be visiting again.

The staff is very friendly, the environment is amazing and the choice of food is great

Amazing property all around. On the beach, great service, food and beverage. LOVED IT!

Love the property. We stayed on the beach side. Being able to walk from your patio to the beach is heaven. Relaxing on patio or beach and having meals and drinks delivered is definitely the relaxation I needed.

Property not well suited for persons with disabilities.

As a vegetarian, the room service menu was very limited. I ate the same meal for the 3 days I was there. The room I had was not 5*. Leaking roof in living area when it rained, stained shower screen and wash basin surround and fridge door. For the price, these things should be in better condition. The staff are excellent and the spa has an amazing choice of treatments. 10/10 for peace and tranquility

The breakfast was good. It was a continental breakfast and so was fruit and some breads. The band at dinner was outstanding. Their reggae was very rootsie, the rhythms were in their souls. The owner of the property was often present and very engaging.

I thought that the attire the staff wore on the beach was inappropriate for the heat. They should have lighter and far more practical clothes.

Very good facility, beach was perfect very peaceful. Rooms were very comfortable and had a great view.

Restaurant/breakfast staff wasn’t very friendly and helpful (Patrick was amazing).

Amazing , quiet and the best hotel in ochu !

So peaceful and quiet…

5 Stars – Pure Bliss at the Jamaican Inn! My husband and I had the most incredible stay at the Jamaican Inn. From start to finish, everything was flawless. The staff made us feel like family—so warm, friendly, and they even remembered our names throughout the stay. It truly made us feel special. Huge thanks to Asha and Patrick, the amazing beach bartenders, who kept the drinks cold and the vibes high. Asha went above and beyond by teaching us how to play croquet, which ended up being one of our favorite memories! And Albert was always there to set up our beach chairs with care every day. The food was absolutely phenomenal, and the live band in the evenings added the perfect touch of island magic. The whole atmosphere was relaxed and elegant—just what we were looking for. One of the highlights of the trip was the spa. I was greeted by the lovely Marcia with a refreshing lemongrass ginger juice, then treated to an unforgettable deep tissue massage by Danntistia—she truly has the hands of an angel. The spa overlooks the ocean, and hearing the waves during the treatment brought me to such a peaceful, relaxed state. Housekeeping was wonderful—so kind and thoughtful, and our room was always immaculate. We left feeling completely refreshed and already can’t wait to return. Jamaican Inn is truly a slice of paradise!

Well maintained resort with friendly staff and beautiful beach.

It was our third or even fourth time here. Come here if you need a real rest. The vacation was so calm, restful. The beach is the best on the cost. They don’t have TV in rooms.

All staff and management was outstanding and eager to help.

Nothing

Always a pleasure to stay here. Good food great staff wonderful beach access and luxury experience without the whole to do of a cheesy all inclusive mega resort

My adult daughter and I went to the Jamaica Inn for a quick 4 night getaway. What makes this resort is the staff and the beach. Ash Quade and William at the beach bar were so friendly and entertaining. The spa was wonderful. Marica was very helpful in assisting us in spa offerings. Azeeza gave a great massage and my daughter enjoyed her facial with Kenneth. The beach was gorgeous. We enjoyed paddle boarding. It is a quiet resort. Most of the visitors were British and retirees. The Jamaica Inn is a classic old school boutique resort. It was a nice relaxing vacation.

location

food not brilliant

Jamaica Inn is a lovely peaceful getaway with amazing service and ample access to beach with no sense of crowding.

Quality was great. Bees were a surprise but did room service.

Our stay was too short

This property is absolutely beautiful. The staff is amazing. The food was fine but not high quality and the ability to exercise wasn’t great. One of the two treadmills didn't work for the entire week we were there and there isn’t anywhere to safely run.

The staff and the relaxing vibe

This hotel is a different world, and one of the few places where they have every detail down perfectly. The service could not be better, and if you’ve been to Jamaica previously and seen the sights, there simply is no reason to leave the hotel grounds. We especially like Cottages 3 and 4, but have not stayed in a bad room yet. The private beach is perfect, as is the beach bar (“Teddy’s”). Croquet, anyone? Please don’t forget to pack your whites. The kitchen runs smoothly, and the menu is varied. Don’t worry about tiny portions or unidentifiable goop, or being served some type of “foam” as a dish, these people cook real Caribbean fare to please their guests, without Jonesing for a Michelin star.

Old world beauty with an amazing attentive and dedicated team of employees that take you through every minute of your stay in an impeccable manner. Attention is paid to every detail which makes this tropical paradise property shine. Leaving sets up the need to begin planning a return.

Our stay was amazing! We couldn't have ask for a better experience. The setting is truly beautiful and everyone who works there is positive, friendly and welcoming. Imagine having everything you could ask for and then being given more! From the food and drinks to the complimentary tour this place is amazing. Five stars!

Lovely property

It’s a beautiful pristine beach just steps away from the rooms. Swept and raked each morning.

There was a bad smelling smoke off and on during the day from trash being burned near by. Quite caustic.

Staff was very welcoming, friendly, helpful and attentive. I went to relax and i did just that.

Beautiful old school charm and service! Quiet, private.

Loved it!

The service is always top tier at this tranquil boutique hotel with lots of old world charm. The kitchen never skipped a beat on this trip,

Jamaica Inn is a gem. It is an oasis of peace, warmth, and beauty. It is old style Jamaica at its best. I could visit again and again. The service is impeccable.

It was my first time staying at the Inn so I had no prior expectations. However upon booking in, I couldnt help noticing the friendleness of all the staff members and I can see from observation they each took pride in their jobs.

The service. The history. Laid back elegance.

Everything.

The Jamaica inn is an amazing place to stay. Great surroundings, friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, tranquil and peaceful, everything you could wish for on a dream holiday of a lifetime. Highly recommend

Quiet and relaxing

Very good location with nice and clean beach

We were unlucky to face Beryl hurricane while staying at Jamaica Inn. The staff was super helpful and they did their best to make all guests feel safe and comfortable, however electricity and connectivity disruptions were annoying. Though the weather conditions is not something under the property control overall the related limitation we faced during our stay downgrade the overall rating which could be excellent without those limitations

Great resort. I would highly recommend it for any occasion.

I can't say enough about how outstanding our trip was. This place is magical and it's all because of the beautiful people who work there. Their first words to you upon arrival are, "Welcome home" and they mean that. My husband and I were married on the beach while we were there and they made all our dreams come true. We can't wait to go back.

The hotel‘s setting is absolutely perfect. From our verandah we walked past an immaculate croquet lawn straight on to the beach. Staff were professional and friendly. The GM runs a tight ship.

No words can describe how excellent this place is.

I have to say that the Jamaica Inn was heavenly. Our start could have been better, not because of Jamaica Inn, but courtesy of American Airlines who delayed our flight 4 hours, so we didn't get to the spa until after 6:00pm. Immediately, we were welcomed with a cocktail soiree at 7pm, where we met two of the partners and many others. When we woke up the following day, we sat out on our patio and marveled at the sea and beach. If we are picky then forgive us, but there were only two things that didn't quite meet our expectations: 1. When Trish had a spa day, there was no room to just relax in afterwards, and no shower. 2. The food was good all the time, but unexceptional, I was hoping for a "Wow!" factor. However, the staff were truly amazing, always smiles on their faces, whenever we ordered room service it was there in an instant. Would we go back - Hell yeah!

Breathtaking beach. Lovely staff. Great gift shop. Enjoyed the Jamaican breakfast when offered, lunch on the beach and high tea. The owners were also lovely and very attentive. I was looking for peace, relaxation and to get away from the noise and found it in this slice of paradise.

It’s all about relaxation at the Jamaica Inn. A fantastic, secluded beach, great family-owned operation and none of the noise and activity buzz you find in the corporate resorts.

This place is superb in every way. The location, the staff, the level of service, the rooms are all top of the line. Jamaica Inn is an institution here, and deservedly so.

I hated leaving it.

We really loved the service and the pristine beach. This is a very special hotel with a family feel. Jamaican hospitality was at its best. We will come again!

A relaxed stay at a hotel with an old world vibe. Tea at four on the terrace and collared shirts and no open-toed shoes after seven certainly sets a standard, but maybe one at odds with modern day values. But definitely better than a chain hotel with no soul.

The resort is well presented, beach is beautiful, staff are friendly and alot of fun. Very private and live band in the evening was very good.

Limited food menu. Can be a little expensive. Room Service charge is high, considering what the locals are paid the costs charged do not reflect wages. Hotel uses a private taxi firm which charges about 1000% over the standard taxi fair charge. I think the rate should be transparent. Fixed charges should be agreed in advance. I felt as I was robbed. I paid $30.00 for a 3 min taxi ride!!

We were greeted with “Welcome Home” at the Jamaica Inn on arrival and that’s how we felt our entire stay! This is a special place where you can feel the effort that is being made in making everyone, guests and staff, feel like part of family. The place is gorgeous beyond words, and there is a relaxing calm vibe. The food was incredible and there were excellent activities offered (rum tasting, trip to the farmer‘s market, baby sea turtle hatching). And then just spontaneous moments of joy mixed in, like watching a croquet game with Ashalene at Teddy’s bar or Carter singing at the piano at night. We had an incredible vacation and will definitely be back!

Old-world ambiance in such a gorgeous setting is rare. The staff and management are gracious and helpful and genuinely friendly. Your "step back in time" experience starts with the elegant Kingsley and other staff at the front desk and continues with the efficient and warm hospitality, housekeeping, beach attendants, spa and maintenance staff. They go about their business discreetly but are happy to engage with guests to enquire about your experience. Many little touches - e.g. complimentary rum punches and afternoon tea, cocktails on the terrace, weekly beach barbecue, musical entertainment, a weekly screening of Bond movies on the beach (complete with popcorn), nice toiletries, nightly treats left by the turn-down staff - contribute to enhancing the overall experience. The gardens are well-maintained and gorgeous. Although some rooms are in need of refurbishment, the furniture and amenities and the fabulous sea and beach views from your terrace more than compensate for any minor faults. We had a wonderful time and can't recommend the Jamaica Inn highly enough for anyone wishing to unwind, unplug and be pampered for awhile. Go!

Jamaica inn is a delightful experience. The entire facility is very well designed with a number of places to spend time, multiple environments for dining, and plenty of activities both and off site. It never feels like the resort is packed. It is a quiet and very relaxing environment, and trends towards an older clientele, but if that's what you're seeking - it's the perfect option.

Beautiful hotel with great service

Very peaceful but not a lot to do on property

The room was spacious and very clean. Our room had great view of the water, with a well-appointed private outdoor space. The staff was polite and attentive, i.e., fantastic. The food was very good.

Although the hotel beach is quiet, private, and beautiful, it is small and not wide enough for walks.

An absolutely perfect holiday. We're already planning our next stay. Wonderful location, beautiful and peaceful beach, warm and welcoming staff who made us feel instantly like we'd come home. Loved taking a boat out to a waterfall (Dunn River Falls) followed by some snorkeling.

Beautiful location with two private beaches. Lush vegetation and beautiful accommodations. The staff is kind and courteous. The food is delicious.

Can't think of anything.

Disappointed that the spa was not available due to works

Lovely property with an excellent staff. Staff exceptional - always smiling!! Food quality was top notch. What I did like was the old world charm and sophistication of the Inn. Beautiful location and grounds. Excellent beach access and amenities. Owner was on premises everyday with his puppy which was a delight.

Due to the age of the property there were items in my room and bathroom that were not up to the quality I had paid for, Water pressure in the shower was very low. Also sink faucet dripped and they were unable to fix it, and the left handle was tough to turn. Overhead fan was great but only worked on one speed and was a bit noisy. I was given complimentary continental breakfast with my stay and they forgot me one morning. My room was also located over the are where the staff gathered and a few times it was noisy.

The beach was incredible didn't really like we had to make reservation every night for dinner and every morning for brreakfast

I loved it!! The staff was amazing and I received my vip bottle of spirits. The food was so good and the beach was fabulous!

Timeless property that is the perfect place to relax and rejuvenate. Very attentive staff who make your stay comfortable and friendly on a spectacular piece of property
