Since 1950, Jamaica Inn has consistently been ranked one of the top resort hotels and vacation destinations in the Caribbean. Jamaica Inn is a small, civilized, elegantly timeless resort located in beautiful Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Situated on what many consider to be the premier private beach in Jamaica, each of Jamaica Inn's 47 rooms and suites suite has a private balustraded balcony overlooking the beach and the Caribbean. Jamaica Inn's crowning glory is its accommodations -- spacious, impeccable and very tasteful. Beds are always freshly made, even after an afternoon nap. A clean, thick beach towel awaits you, no matter how many trips you make to the beach. The cool sea breezes filter through louvered shutters. For the occasional lull, ceiling fans and air conditioning provide comfort.

For those seeking a little more privacy, Jamaica Inn also has Cottages that are set on a bluff with stunning views of the Sea. They are tastefully decorated in a blend of Jamaican and Indonesian styles. These Cottages are private, yet steps away from the Inn and all of its amenities. To book these special Cottages, please contact Five Star Alliance at 1-888-5 STAR-11.
