New Additions at the Jamaica Inn

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 27, 2016

One of Jamaica’s top hotels has been busy making changes of late.

The Ocho Rios-based Jamaica Inn has unveiled a series of upgrades and renovations to the property.

They include renovations at the hotel’s Cottage 6, along with a new sauna at the Ocean Spa.

The latter is used for the hotel’s unique “jungle” treatment in an outdoor treehouse that includes a detoxifying sauna session, then a cooling outdoor shower, followed by a rehydration with lemongrass juice.

The property has also announced the renaming of its beach bar for Teddy Tucker, the longtime bartender who has been part of the hotel’s family for 57 years.

Just make sure you try a “Teddy’s Planter’s Punch” next time you’re at the bar.
