Top 10 Five-Star All-Inclusive Resorts in Jamaica

·Iconic Jamaican luxury resort.

Round Hill is a gated estate west of Montego Bay holding 36 hotel rooms, five suites and 27 privately owned villas. It has been Jamaica's quiet-luxury address for decades. The beach is protected and calm, there is an infinity pool with villa pools scattered above it, and the atmosphere is deliberately hushed: the recurring note from guests is the service, and the recurring warning is that nobody comes here for nightlife.

·Beautiful private peninsula setting.

Excellence Oyster Bay is an adults-only, all-suite resort on a private peninsula near Falmouth, for couples who want a secluded, polished beach week. It is a place to stay put rather than a base for Jamaica, about 39 minutes from Montego Bay's airport and east of Rose Hall, with water on three sides and nothing to walk to beyond the gates. That isolation is the setting most guests come for, and the reason the resort has to carry the whole holiday itself.

·Recently renovated and reopened Sandals resort.

·Exceptionally strong service reputation.

·Privacy

·Lush hillside setting

·New build

·Excellent Seven Mile Beach setting with warm, swimmable water.

Sandals' most laid-back Jamaican property, spread along the best stretch of Negril's Seven-Mile Beach. It's adults-only and couples-focused, with a swim-up pool bar, fire-pit dining, and included scuba and water sports. The vibe is barefoot and easygoing rather than buttoned-up. Best November through April.

·Airport proximity

·Adults-only resort with 24-hour all-inclusive structure.

Bahia Principe Escape Runaway Bay is an adults-only all-inclusive on Jamaica's north coast, for couples and adult groups who want pools and easy logistics. A boutique feel is not the offer. It is about 75 minutes east of Montego Bay's airport, with 525 rooms, five restaurants, four pool bars and a swim-up bar, and three connected pools along the beachfront. It is the adults-only side of a larger Bahia Principe complex whose family resort sits next door.
