Concierge "Like a mini-Mustique, this former pineapple plantation on a 110-acre peninsula in Montego Bay is a collective run by the owners of its 29 villas."
Jetsetter "Ralph Lauren decor, a splurge-worthy spa and striking Caribbean views near Montego Bay." Full review
Fodor's "It's a fairly quiet place, with a small beach and limited but good dining options." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A west shore institution, Round Hill is one of the places that put Jamaican tourism on the map." Full review
Star Service "On a secluded 40-hectare peninsula, this clubby old-money refuge retains much of the serenity and sense of privilege of its earlier days when London and Hollywood loyalists vacationed here." Full review

In the villas, breakfasts are cooked to order, or guests can dine on the sea-view dining terrace; most guests choose to eat lunch and dinner here.

Fodor's "The Jewel, an adults-only all-inclusive resort on a small stretch of beach, is a place where you can make friends, and there is enough entertainment to make it fun but not overwhelming." Full review
Travel + Leisure "In the fall of 2010, the former Sandals property outside Ocho Rios was reborn as a couples-only, 250-room Jewel resort with a posh, gentry-in-the-tropics vibe." Full review

Book a late-afternoon spa treatment and take advantage of the evening spa party, where cocktails are flavored by locally harvested ingredients.
Star Service "Once the Jewel Beach Resort and Spa, this all-inclusive, adults-only gem continues to shine after its 2011 debut back on the scene." Full review
Frommer's "Every guest room has a Caribbean Colonial–style decor, complete with four-poster beds, marble-topped tables, and balconies. The best rooms with the best views are in the Diamond Building" Full review

Ask for a room facing the center of the property—they all have angled balconies for sea views—as those on the back, facing the neighboring Riu property, catch the noise of its disco late into the night.
