Round Hill in Jamaica.

It’s the iconic vacation hotspot for everyone from John F. Kennedy to Paul Newman, where the rooms were designed by part-owner Ralph Lauren. 

In a word, Round Hill is magical, and now the boutique resort near Montego Bay is making it even easier to visit for a Labor Day getaway. 

The property’s new Labor Day Escape package gives you 30 percent off stays of four nights or more — or rooms starting at just $480 per night. 

Of course, Round Hill is not just a hotel, it’s also a villa resort — and the package extends to the villas, too. 

That means two-bedroom classic villas — complete with staff and daily breakfast made fresh in your villa — starting at just $1,200.
