Where to Stay in Montego Bay

By Anna O'Keefe · On March 5, 2018


The gorgeous coastal city of Montego Bay is situated on the northern end of Jamaica. Boasting a modest population of 100,000 inhabitants, the city has grown to become the nation’s second-largest metropolis. It’s also gained an international reputation as a top vacation destination in the Caribbean, featuring white sandy beaches, pristine ocean waters, and a unique reggaeton culture.

If you’re thinking about taking a vacation to this tropical oasis in the next few months, you’re in luck because we’re breaking down the best villas in Montego Bay.

Villa Rosa

Fusing modern architecture with stunning natural views, Villa Rosa overlooks the crystal blue sea and features five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. It’s the perfect fit for the luxurious traveler seeking to escape the madness of the busy city.

The villa also provides access to several championship golf courses including the Half Moon, the White Witch, and Cinnamon Hill. Spend the morning playing a few rounds with your closest friends and head to the Sunrise Beach for a refreshing swim. This magnificent beach is just a few minutes away from Villa Rosa and showcases the calmest waters in the region.

Allamanda

Looking for a contemporary villa to host all your family and friends? The Allamanda is the perfect fit, with a sprawling heated pool, modern interior design, and a dedicated staff. The staff includes a personal chef and butlers, meaning you don’t even have to think about cooking or cleaning during your stay.

If you’re a pet lover, the villa also comes with two well-trained Jamaican brown dogs named Bonnie and Emily. These cute canines are great with children and make the Allamanda feel like a proper home. Don’t worry about taking care of these two furry personalities though, as the staff cares for the dogs throughout the day.

This villa is just west of Montego Bay and is close to the Great River, which is ideal for bamboo rafting and zip lining. The Great River empties into the warm Caribbean Sea and forms the basin of Montego Bay, which is a great spot for snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing.

Bambu 

Inspired by the sprawling bamboo forests that dot the landscape, this villa exudes Caribbean luxury for the rich and famous. Situated nine miles westwards of the city, Bambu directly overlooks the ocean and was designed by architect Robert Hartley in the 1960s.

Hartley aimed to fuse Caribbean elements with Venetian architecture, creating a breathtaking result that was featured on the cover of Veranda magazine. Spend the afternoon exploring the gardens and basking in the Jamaican heat, followed by a romantic full course dinner in the gazebo prepared by the personal chef. If you’re looking for privacy and relaxation, Bambu serves as the ultimate sanctuary.

Don’t bother staying at a crowded resort, instead opt for a beautiful luxury villa in Montego Bay. It provides an excellent opportunity to explore the area and properly immerse yourself in the local culture.
