I mean you could literally see the beach from the check-in desk. The designers had clearly put some thought into the renovation of the building, and this could be seen in the artful combination of discreet urban sophistication, and the authentic rootsy vibe that was felt when you looked at the history that was beautifully displayed on the hotel walls.

Hotel Review: S Hotel Jamaica in Montego Bay

21 Mar 2019

A decade ago the Spanish Court Hotel radically shook up the Kingston, Jamaica, hotel scene by opening the city’s first truly cosmopolitan, design-driven, ultra-chic boutique hotel. Now they’ve done the same for Montego Bay, and it couldn’t come soon enough: the popular resort city has been crying for an urban property that’s not a colossal all-inclusive or a hotel that feels, well, passé. Here’s why the S Hotel Jamaica, perfectly consistent with its Kingston counterpart, is my new MoBay go-to spot.
