I never recommend anything I haven't tried myself”

Which is the Best Resort in Jamaica. As a travel agent, this is one of my most asked questions.

I totally understand the questions because I agree that once you get in your room or suite on the beautiful island of Jamaica, you shouldn't have to pay for anything else. All-inclusive makes that possible.

The top 10 all-inclusive resorts in Jamaica on this list not only include all food, drinks, and events, but some of these resorts are also adults only.

Yeah, Kids are great, but we're leaving them home for these Jamaica hotspots, so the adults can act a fool!

Haters may tell you that Jamaica is either Dangerous, Overrated, or not Bucket List worthy.

There CAN be SOME concerns when choosing the best resort for your girls' trip, guys' trip, solo, or couples' trip, but these all-inclusive resorts have systems in place to make your stay as comfortable and safe as possible.

I’ve been to Jamaica now on several occasions. I’ve talked to the people, learned the history, and studied Resorts as part of my Travel Agent Homework.

I’ll give you the best resorts.

Some are 5star, Some are best for couples, and some have packages that also include airfare.

Then, for number 1 I’ll recommend the Best Bang for your buck that you can get right now, in an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica.

Can one of these resorts give you the exact getaway that you and your crew have been needing?

That's what this list of the “top 10 all-inclusive resorts in Jamaica” is here to help you figure out.

5 Star all-inclusive resorts

The first 3 Jamaica resorts on this list will be the 5-star resorts. "5 star" means the hotel provides a luxurious experience with high-end accommodations.

10. Bahia Principe Grand Jamaica

Bahia Principe Grand Jamaica is excellent for a week's vacation. You’ll enjoy the relaxing vibe.

It takes about an hour to get from the airport.

You can tell that they’ve not had a full renovation in a while but that doesn't stop this Ocho Rios resort from sporting a 5-star rating.

The people who work here will give you all the attention you desire while being nice about it.

The food and drinks here will be excellent.

This beach is dope and clean.

Resort entertainment is very fun and engaging. We will definitely want to add a few extra days to your vacation.

9. Sandals

Be one of the first to experience this new resort in Jamaica.

Sandals have pulled out the bag and they are planning to take all of the travelers coming to Jamaica in the near future.

Sandals Resorts International held a groundbreaking ceremony for its three new Jamaica resorts. The event marked the first phase of a $230 million dollar project that will include Sandals Dunn’s River followed by Phase II, transforming the oceanfront land into Sandals Royal Dunn’s River.

I’m imagining water bungalows, onsite scuba diving excursions, scenery, and food never before experienced in Jamaica.

These rooms are not available for sale yet, but mark my words, this is going to be big.

The company is also planning an over $250 million dollar renovation of its third new location in Ocho Rios, Beaches Runaway Bay Resort.

At its completion, the hotel will have an estimated 400 one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom suites, designed with extended families in mind.

Guests of Beaches Runaway Bay also have access to Runaway Bay Golf Club and its par-72, 18-hole championship golf course.

The only thing they haven't announced is an adults-only compound. When they do, they will officially take over Jamaica and I can’t wait to go and book others so we can see what they have in store.

8. Moon Palace

Everyone I’ve sent to this magnificent hotel has had nothing but great things to say about it. This resort is probably the furthest away from the airport in the beautiful city of OCHO RIOS.

The moon palace in Jamaica blows the resorts in other countries by the same now out the water!

They have a new concept called the Jumping Dinner, where they take you on a journey to all of their restaurants for a special sample of their food. Each stop is amazing and the food is out of this world.

This is also a pretty expensive resort per night but it's well worth the price.


ALL-INCLUSIVE JAMAICA RESORTS WITH AIRFARE

These all-inclusive resorts that I handpicked are best when purchased with Airfare Included. Sometimes, getting your room and flight at the same time can save you tons of money but more importantly, eliminate the stress of making sure things like flight time and hotel check-in time matches up

7. Iberostar Grand Rose Hall

Iberostar Grand Rose Hall is an Adults Only, All-Inclusive, 5-star resort.

I have an entire video about my visit to Iberostar Rose hall, which you can find at this link.

This resort is steeped in cultural history, while still offering plenty of modern entertainment.

This is the Party Resort.

Night Club in a Jamaica Resort in Rose Hall

Excursions like zip-lining in the Jamaican jungles, horseback riding on the beach, or the once-in-a-lifetime experience of swimming with dolphins make this trip to Iberostar worth it even when you're not in the hotel.

But when you get back to the resort, The Foam Pool Party and chilling in the swim-up bar with your crew is an experience you can’t find anywhere else.

You can get some great deals when you include airfare while booking this resort.

6. Royal Decameron Club Caribbean

At the time of writing this resort is only $1190 including flights

This Affordable family-friendly resort is located in Runaway Bay on Jamaica's North Coast. It features 500 yards of fabulous beachfront.

Non-motorized water sports and a host of land activities for all ages are included.

Both buffet and a la carte dining options are available.

They have some cheap Discounted rates valid for travel from May 16 thru October 31, 2021.

Make sure you contact me to plan a group trip to this all-inclusive paradise.

5. Breathless Montego Bay

With full waiting services at the pool and on the beach, a fully-stocked minibar, and 24-hour room service, everything you need to enjoy yourself is right at your fingertips.

Pet-lovers will also be pleased to know that the resort welcomes small dogs, so your furry friend will be able to join you on this all-inclusive adventure in Jamaica

The highlight of Breathless Resort is the rooftop nightclub. Live DJs will keep the party pumping until you burn off your Rum calories.

They even have themed nights! They’ll have a tropical beach night, a glow stick party, or a silent disco.

Imagine that, all while enjoying premium top-shelf liquor.

With a full view of the surrounding mountains, you may truly feel like you’re in paradise.

This is the perfect resort for people who want to Party Hard!

So Make sure I book your vacation for the weekend.

Best Resorts in Jamaica for Couples

These next 3 choices are what the couples have been waiting for. These all-inclusive resorts in Jamaica are best enjoyed with your significant other. You will still interact with others on a constant basis if you’d like, but quiet time in exotic scenery is where these resorts take the cake.


4. Catcha Falling Star (Negril)

The Catcha Falling Star resort has a much greater sense of intimacy and will be perfect for a romantic getaway, with just eight cottages and one main building.

Catcha Falling Star is also, by far, the cheapest option of these 3. Most of the cottages cost less than $200 per night.

You’ll be able to enjoy the beautiful Jamaican landscape on a more modest budget.

At night you can choose to visit the historical Ivan’s Bar and Restaurant, open to the public from 5PM each evening, or the 100 Candle Dinner as an essential part of your romantic getaway.

They have private dining areas with a dinner for two set up on a cliffside. This is perfect for two lovers to share their secrets under the stars or give each other a handjob.

Ivan’s also has an interesting mythical history, so it may be of interest to those who wish for a cultured vacation spot.

I wouldn't say that Catcha Falling Star is perfect for those who wish to meet new people, due to the self-contained nature of the cottages but this will be an experience a couple will never forget.

If you guys want to turn up, you’ll probably have to “Catcha Driving Cab” off the resort

3. Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall

At night, sitting by the floating fire-pit drinking your favorite liquor is dope.

The Bartenders here should be award-winning because they know exactly how to mix a drink and make it strong enough to get a good buzz going.

The live entertainment should also be award-winning because they know how to cut a rug.

International performers provide everything from acrobat shows to Caribbean steel drum concerts that’ll give vegas shows a run for the money.

Hyatt Zilara doesn't have the party reputation of places like Breathless in Jamaica but they come in a close 2nd.

The ballroom and meeting spaces give Rose Hill a more sophisticated edge, but it’s perfect for a low-key vacation and It is perfect for an intimate getaway to spend time alone with that special someone.

Remember that this spot is for couples. The best time to go is right now.

You will have the most authentic Jamaica experience.

2. Grand Palladium: Lady hamilton

Like I said in the full-length video that I made when I visited Grand Palladium: Lady Hamilton, which you can find in this link, this place looks photoshopped.

It's like stepping into another world.

Until I visited Zanzibar, I had never seen a beach so clean and untouched by humans as you’ll experience in The Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton.

This resort is located in lucy which is only a 20-minute drive from the center of Montego Bay and the Airport.

The staff will take really good care of you and you will feel like family in about 2-3 days.

The food at the Buffet restaurant tastes like you're paying $1000 a plate. If you’ve never been to Jamaica, but you have any interest in visiting, book a flight today and stay at Grand Palladium: Lady Hamilton.

It’s not even that expensive and you will love it.

Do you have a group trip coming up? I have 6+ years of organizing groups for vacations to Vegas, The Caribbean, and Africa.

I’ll make sure you get the lowest prices on a superb getaway that you and your crew won’t soon forget. Contact me at Roklan@PassportKings.com so I can set up an amazing experience for your folks.

If you only need an individual trip, Go to the updated www.passportkings.com and compare offers so you can get the lowest prices from over 4 million flight and hotel brands in one place!

1. RIU PALACE

My friends and I will be in RIU Montego Bay this July. In order for me to get a great deal for my wife and me, I had to go through a training course to learn about all resorts in the RIU brand. I wish we were going to the Palace now.

RIU will be my new go-to brand if it lives up to all of the talking points they taught me. I went to check out other reviews on TripAdvisor to see what was being said.
One person wrote:

It took me less than an hour to find this gem and I must say that my first experience in Jamaica was nothing less than the best. As I arrived in my taxi, I was greeted by the bellhop who took my bags and handed me a mimosa before even checking in. My room oversaw the pool/ side view of the beach. The linens were fresh, the room was spotless, and smelled like fresh cleaning products. The hot water was hot and the shower pressure was amazing. The first resort that I stayed at, that actually looked like the website pictures. Purple and white decor and a jacuzzi in the suite. The entertainment was great, the food was good and the drinks were awesome. The pools were just a few feet from the beach that include chairs, lounges, hammocks, and umbrellas. I was in heaven. I also enjoyed being able to resort hop, if you stay at Palace, you get to go to the other 2 resorts on the same strip without having to pay. I rate the resorts a 5✨ For overall service and last-minute reasonable accommodations. I will be returning in a month. RIU Palace is my new home away from home. Thanks to the very inviting staff.

Well, That's a pretty outstanding review, and here is my full-length review of their sister resort RIU Montego Bay Classic.


And for now, get on the next plane you can find, look at your companion and say YEAHH MON! Like a king...
