We spent our days floating in warm Caribbean waters, drank only the fruitiest of drinks at the swim-up poolside bars, and admired the ocean views from our private balcony. Jon even sailed the crystal blue waters on a catamaran ride! All non-motorized water sports, also including kayaks and SUP, are covered by the all inclusive fee. Sign me up!

Once the sun set, we dined like kings (and queens). The resort includes several fine dining options. My personal favorite was Waves, with delicious seafood cuisine and desert. The reservation only Pierside Restaurant was also a favorite of ours. Asian fusion in Jamaica? Why not.

My only regret is not taking advantage of the Grande Spa. Though treatments are not included in the all inclusive fee, this would have been the icing on the cake. Next time?

Tips:

• Pack a swimsuit in your carry on so you can cool off upon arrival!
• Tip the staff well and they will keep those drinks comin’!
• Bring your own sunscreen, and avoid the gift shop mark-up
• Can’t find a shaded lounge chair? Your private balcony has the best ones!
• Take the stairs if possible (we may or may not have gotten stuck in an elevator)
