My family of 4 - kids ages 18 & 13 - are looking for an all-inclusive family resort in Jamaica. Have been to Beaches Boscobel in Ocho Rios. Any other suggestions? Thanks. Bobbie D.

Starfish Trelawny for more moderate accommodations on a perfect beach.

Rose Hall Resort for a newly renovated resort on a so-so beach.

Sunset Beach Resort & Spa also recently renovated with a small water park located a marine preserve for good snorkeling.

Just some ideas to get you started.

Hi Bobby,

I agree with MKA's list .

Best all-round value on an awesome beach, you can't go wrong with Starfish Trelawny.

Another good option might be the Sunset Jamaica Grande in Ocho Rios... it's a bit of a drive and the beach isn't great but it's a very nice family resort as well. Personally I prefer it to the Mobay Sunset.

Rose Hall Resort would be my second choice after Starfish.

Blessings and respect to you, enjoy Jamaica one more time.

Steve

Beaches Negril or Beaches Sandy Bay are two other options in Negril if you enjoyed the Beaches experience...

Hi Bobbie D.

I have stayed multiple times at the Sunset Mo Bay, Sunset Ja Grande, Rose Hall Resort and Starfish. My kids, 7 and 9, particulary love Ochi and the Ja Grande. The resort has water slides and multiple pools. The beach is sandy and calm and there are a lot of fish and sand dollars for them to find.

The offsite tours in Ochi are great. Besides the Dunn's river falls (make sure if you go it's not a cruise ship day), check out Mystic Mountian and the White River. Incredible!

Have Fun!
