The Jewel Dunn’s River Beach Resort and Spa has joined Curio — A Collection by Hilton.

The property, located in Ocho Rios on Jamaica’s North Coast, is an adults-only, all-inclusive.

“The Northern coast of Jamaica is a treasure trove of remarkable sensory experiences – everything from zip lining through the rainforest at Mystic Mountain to touring the birthplace of reggae king Bob Marley in Nine Mile,” said Dianna Vaughan, global head, Curio – A Collection by Hilton. “With its distinct culture, beautiful beaches and iconic music, it’s fitting for Curio – a brand that celebrates unique communities and individuality – to expand our global collection with such an exemplary resort as Jewel Dunn’s River Beach Resort & Spa, Ocho Rios.”

The property includes a private beach, two pools, two hot tubs, six bars, a fitness centre and 250 guest rooms.
