Jakes, Treasure Beach It’s hard to get much further than the Jamaica’s typical coastal tourist destinations than Treasure Beach on the island’s South Coast, and that’s exactly the point for the solitude seekers who occupy this boutique resort’s brightly colored and individually appointed villas, cottages, and bungalows.

Don’t miss the weekly screening of the seminal reggae film The Harder They Come, directed by a member of the Henzell family that owns the resort.
