Sandals Has New-Look Villas at This All-Inclusive in Jamaica

One of our favorite Sandals resorts in Jamaica has unveiled some new-look villas, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

The Sandals Ochi Beach Resort has completed renovations of both its two-bedroom and four-bedroom butler villas with private pools, the company confirmed this week. 

We’ve always been fans of the 100-acre resort’s dual identity that gives you a choice of lush, private hideaways in the hills or direct beachfront stays — including the always-bustling Ochi Beach Club. 

So what do the rooms cost? 

For a two-bedroom poolside butler villa with a private pool, you’re looking at about $7,577, all-inclusive, for a four-night stay. 

Are you planning a trip to Ocho Rios? You’ll be happy to find out that American Airlines now flies daily nonstop from Miami to the area’s Ian Fleming International Airport (yes, named after the creator of James Bond).
