Set within 100 acres of lush forest, this expansive couples-only resort is split into two different sections. The Riviera Seaside and Ochi Beach Club overlook half a mile of white-sand beach, while the secluded Butler Villas and Great House are located on the hillside above. If you feel like taking some time away from the sweeping private beach or the seven main swimming pools, you can take on the Caribbean’s largest rock climbing wall, which is situated within the Ochi Beach Club. Golfers can take advantage of complimentary green fees at the Sandals Golf & Country Club (caddies mandatory, payable locally). If you're looking to tie the knot in Jamaica then there's even a new overwater chapel which seats up to 50 guests, with superb 360-degree panoramic views and a glass floor aisle. You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining at the resort as the 16 restaurants – all of which are all included in the price of your holiday – feature a great range of international, casual and fine dining options. You can choose from authentic Jamaican, seafood, Japanese teppanyaki and sushi at different venues that are dotted around the resort. For afternoon cocktails and pre- or after-dinner drinks, there’s a choice of 11 bars. The accommodation options are fantastic here, with the Riviera section of the resort offering plush Italian-style villas and suites, decorated in Mediterranean pastels with balconies overlooking a boardwalk and gazebos. Alternatively, for a more tranquil retreat, opt to stay in the Butler Village. Guests in these villas can enjoy luxurious extras such as a personal butler service and semi-private pool.
Set on a glorious sweep of soft white sand at the livelier end of the Montego Bay peninsula, this luxurious adults-only all-suite retreat has a vibrant atmosphere reflecting its promenade location. You can find shops, bars and restaurants along the expansive promonade – including round-the-clock venues for midnight and early morning snacks. For an authentic taste of Jamaica, we recommend trying the jerk chicken and beef patties available from the food carts that are on the beach and by pool each day. Keep active by using the watersports centre on the beachfront, where lots of non-motorised watersports are on offer. For a slightly more chilled-out experience, you can lounge in the gardens, by the swimming pool or on the beach as you'll be just steps away from the azure Caribbean Sea. If you fancy a little pampering, head to the sumptuous Secrets Spa by Pevonia®. You’ll also have access to the facilities at Secrets St. James Montego Bay. From 02 January until 31 December 2019, guests staying in Preferred Club rooms or higher will receive one complimentary romantic dinner during their stay (2 adults, minimum 7 nights). The resort’s suites showcase charming British colonial-inspired interiors. The Junior Suites are spacious and overlook the gardens, or for a supplement, the sea. For extra benefits such as access to a private lounge and a soaking tub on the terrace or balcony, upgrade to one of the Preferred Club Junior Suites. In the Preferred Club Oceanview Swim-out Junior Suites you can enjoy stepping into one of the resort’s pools straight from your balcony. For the ultimate in luxury, choose a Preferred Club Oceanfront Master Suite. These glorious rooms feature expansive living space, spectacular Caribbean Sea views and butler service.

Located in manicured gardens edging a beautiful beachfront, this peaceful colonial-style hotel feels more like a boutique retreat than a large resort and was named the Caribbean’s Leading Luxury Resort at the World Travel Awards 2017. The friendly staff offer a warm welcome and encourage you to embrace the laid-back Jamaican pace of life. Sip a rum punch by the pool, enjoy a juicy pineapple or fresh coconut from the fruit cart, and learn to cook delicious local dishes at the weekly cooking class. The adventure park offers hours of fun for the whole family, from six year-olds to adults. Challenge yourself to the obstacle course as you cross footbridges and suspended logs, before hanging on a Tarzan swing and zip-lining back to base. There is also an impressive 35-foot rock climbing wall and outdoor trampolines. The restaurants are set around a charming village square and there is plenty of choice, from international buffets and grilled fish to Italian and Caribbean cuisine. Enjoy filet mignon at 876 Prime, coconut shrimp at O’Grille and home-made pastas and brick oven pizzas at Rasta Pasta. Follow the mouth-watering aroma of flavoursome chicken dishes to the jerk station by the beach, and reserve a table at Nikkei to enjoy a creative fusion of Japanese and Cantonese flavours.

The rooms are set in colonial-style villas or beachfront villas. Enjoy views of the pretty gardens from a Deluxe Garden View Room, or wake up to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore from a Deluxe Beachfront Room. Upgrade to a Premium Oceanfront Room for a balcony and sea views. For added luxury, opt for one of the suites in The Level.
