Hotels Hotels are government ranked into four categories – from A to D and there are approximately 150 hotels and guest houses on the island. All-inclusive resorts are favoured and cater for couples, singles and families.
Apartments
For those interested in a self-catering holiday there are more than 800 cottages and apartments for rent, which range from a small condo on the beach through to large private villas with pools. Many operators will arrange packages that can also include add-ons such as tours, transfers and car hire.
Camping/Caravans
This is ideal for those who like the idea of being closer to nature, but this isn’t to say that amenities and facilities are not spared on dedicated camping and caravan sites. There are a variety of unique locations to choose from including national parks, former coffee plantations and beach locations.
With the Locals
For those that are looking for an insight into Jamaican life, a homestay on a bed and breakfast basis in a local island home is a great alternative. Jamaicans are very friedly and welcoming and will be keen to have you practising the local lingo - patois and enjoying a home-cooked traditional dish while playing games, singing or debating – three great pastimes Jamaicans enjoy.
