Montego Bay Travel Forum

Hi everyone, me and my friend are going to Jamaica 27th decemeber to 11th january. We are staying at Rose Hall Resort. Has anyone stayed here before? We are trying to come up with a possible itinerary for while we are there, what are the most things to do there as this is our first trip there. We've been told to go doctors cave, treasure beach, black river, to go up the blue mountains. do you have any other suggestions. What is transport like in Jamaica, is it easy to get around the island?
Also where are the best places to eat?

Thanks for any help

Yeah,
theres lots of good stuff and you got the right amount of time.

the resort is a good base...but you should do just that and keep it as a base....
you can check these by internet........
i live here in montego bay and know jamaica well

basically you can't cover everything or you are just running around in a car..
so go south coast for the real vibes
so ..
travel to negril...
west end - rockhouse,ricks cafe

spend night at tensing pen

go to
ys falls
then
jakes - treasure beach
spend night there
stay over new years
most likely parties and stage shows

more details if you wish...but basically ..keep mobay for simplicity and other places for adventure...

so relax a couple days
head out
relax a bit then home..

my advice

Hi Fil,

Hi Fil,

Hi Fil, I am going to the Rose Hall all inclusive resort, at the end of February 2008. I am alone a lot of the time, cause my hubby will be at a convention. I will enjoy the resort and its facilities most of the time. If there is time to sight see, what do you recommend? Thanks, Dawn (from Vancouver, B.C.)
