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.

Concierge "This 12-room resort challenges the notion of the tour package/cookie-cutter all-inclusive, not only for its small size but also for its abundance of character."
Jetsetter "Seaside oasis with just 12 thatched roof cottages and one villa, all spread over 10 acres of limestone cliff." Full review

"Arguably Jamaica's most romantic escape (for adults only), the Caves' 12 unique, private cottages and suites are tucked along lush garden paths and dramatic seaside cliffs." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Located atop Negril’s limestone cliffs, the Caves is an all-inclusive, adults-only resort surrounded by 10 acres of tropical gardens." Full review
Rough Guide "Gorgeous, romantic small hotel set behind Fort Knox-inspired gates."
DK Eyewitness "Perhaps the most exclusive choice in Negril, and certainly the most romantic."
Star Service "The Caves, Negril's most romantic boutique-hotel, may package meals, drinks and activities into its rates, but it is the antithesis of the commercial all-inclusive operations hereabouts." Full review

Only ground-floor units (six suites and two cottage units) have air-conditioning, so request accordingly; however, all rooms have ceiling and standing fans.
Fodor's "At this boutique resort, the thatched-roof cottages are individually designed and furnished, most with balconies overlooking the deep water off Negril's West End honeycombed cliffs." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "On a limestone headland next to a historic lighthouse, this "great little place" has cliffside cottages made of handcrafted stone and wood." Full review

"Reportedly Naomi Campbell’s favourite hotel — and after staying here, it may just be yours too." Full review
