A new beach hotel is coming to Jamaica’s tourism hub.

The Spanish Court brand is expanding with the new Spanish Court Montego Bay, slated to open this fall, the company announced at the Caribbean Travel Marketplace conference in Nassau this week.

The Criss Group’s newest project will have 120 rooms and suites, most of which will have oceanfront views and a hip decor.

As with its Kingston-area Spanish Court Hotel, the Montego Bay edition will be designed by Jamaican-born Allison Antrobus of Antrobus Ramirez.

The hotel will also be home to the newest outpost of superstar sprinter Usain Bolt’s Tracks & Records restaurant, which will be adjacent to the property.
