🇯🇲✨ A LITTLE INDUSTRY INSIDER UPDATE FOR YOU ✨🇯🇲
I was in Jamaica last month and let me tell you - the next couple of years are going to be BIG 👀
For the longest time, Jamaica has been missing something… true luxury all-inclusives at the level we see in Mexico and the Dominican.
That gap?
It’s finally being filled. And not just a little bit… in a major way.
Here are the THREE resorts I am watching VERY closely 👇
🌿 UNICO 18°77° Jamaica (Adults Only)
by Unico Hotel Collection
This one… I am so excited about.
If you’ve heard me talk about UNICO in Mexico, you already know the vibe:
✨ modern luxury
✨ elevated dining (not buffet-heavy)
✨ personalized, thoughtful service
✨ culture woven into the experience
This will be their first-ever Caribbean property, opening on Jamaica’s north coast.
✔️ 451 rooms (a really nice size — not overwhelming)
✔️ swim-up suites + hydro tubs
✔️ two-king room options (rare + amazing for friends)
✔️ calm, design-forward atmosphere
👉 Expected opening: 2027
This is going to attract a completely different kind of traveller to Jamaica — and I am HERE for it.
👑 Moon Palace The Grand – Montego Bay
by Palace Resorts
If you know Moon Palace The Grand… you already know they don’t do anything halfway 😏
This is going to be a luxury mega-resort done right:
✔️ 1,200 rooms
✔️ overwater bungalows (!!)
✔️ 13 restaurants + bars
✔️ one of the largest spas in Jamaica
✔️ water park, FlowRider, bowling
✔️ golf access
👉 Expected opening: 2028
This is HUGE for families or groups who want luxury and endless things to do.
🎸 Hard Rock Hotel Montego Bay (All-Inclusive)
by Hard Rock Hotels
This one is designed a little differently… and honestly, in a way guests will LOVE:
✔️ EVERY room faces the ocean 🌊
✔️ 1,100 guestrooms
✔️ 13 dining venues
✔️ massive spa + entertainment spaces
✔️ multiple pools + beachfront stretching the entire property
👉 Expected opening: 2027
It’s going to bring that fun, high-energy Hard Rock vibe - but elevated.
💬 Why this matters (and why I’m excited):
Jamaica has always had incredible culture, beaches, food and energy…
but it hasn’t fully competed in the luxury all-inclusive space the way Mexico has.
That’s changing. Fast.
And if you’ve been:
✔️ wanting Jamaica
BUT
✔️ craving a more elevated, modern, luxury experience
…your time is coming 👏
If Jamaica has been on your list, this is one of those “watch this space” moments.
And if you want to be first in line when bookings open (because they will go FAST)… you know where to find me 💬
