Jamaica is such a fantastic destination for a tropical holiday, but with so many resorts and hotels to choose from, you might need a bit of help and inspiration on where to go and stay. Here's our guide to Jamaica holidays, whether you're taking the kids away for an adventure filled, family friendly holiday, or celebrating a special occasion like a big birthday or honeymoon.



There are direct flights from the UK to Jamaica, including both scheduled services with Virgin Atlantic and BA, and charter flights from regional airports with TUI, including London Gatwick, Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle and Glasgow. Most holiday flights go to Montego Bay Airport (Also known as Sangster International Airport / Airport Code: MBJ) and it's easiest to have an airport transfer waiting for you to take you to your hotel, but hiring a car is also possible here and a great way to get out and explore if you can't spend every day by the pool. Taxis can be a good way to get around the island if you don't fancy driving, but there are also plenty of organised tours and excursions on offer which can be booked in advance, saving you the hassle of knowing where to go.
When booking a beach holiday through the likes of Virgin Holidays, TUI or British Airways Holidays, you'll be protected by the ABTA and ATOL scheme. Other tour operators like Kuoni, loveholidays and On The Beach also have package holidays to Jamaica but what's included will vary. You may need to add on things like airport transfers when you book, or they may already be included, so double check.
To help you save money, you might be able to find things like discount codes online, or with certain travel companies, a discount is automatically applied on check-out. Free child places generally aren't available on long haul holidays to the Caribbean but sometimes you might be able to find promotions that allow kids to stay free.
If you're taking the family, there are several ways to save, including free child place holidays to Jamaica. With certain tour operators like Virgin Atlantic or British Airways Holidays, this may only be for the accommodation element, however, with companies like TUI, the flights and airport transfers may be included as well.
With big, beachfront resorts, an all inclusive holiday to Jamaica may be just what the doctor ordered. Drift between the pool, beach and restaurants for a whole week with endless sea views, palm trees and rum punch.
