Strawberry Hill luxury resort in Jamaica

Strawberry Hill Jamaica is regarded as heavenly to most visitors. Nestled amongst the Jamaican Blue Mountains, Strawberry Hill is located a few minutes drive outside the main Kingston area. The drive up the hill through narrow roads, steep cliff sides and lush green vegetation is enough to get you in the mood for a lovely mountain side paradise. It is quiet, secluded and not your average beach front 1,000 room resort. As the name suggests be prepared to go up and down steps and slopes as you traverse the property. 

It consists of 12 handcrafted 19th century Georgian style cottages decked out with four poster beds and rattan rugs. They have deluxe villas, one bedrooms and some studios. The property also houses the Strawberry Hill Spa. The hotel is rich with history with its beginnings as an 18th century coffee plantation owned by the British Royal Family. It then evolved after being purchased in 1972 by Chris Blackwell, famous for launching the career of Bob Marley. Strawberry Hill’s Bar and Conference Room is home to a significant photographic tour of music’s most influential players over the past four decades. The topper to this beautiful resort is that the hotel has it’s own helicopter that will pick you up from the airport and drop you on top of the mountain!
