Negril, Jamaica (August 6, 2025) – In honor of Jamaican Independence Day today, we wanted to take the opportunity to share details about our client resort, Sunset at the Palms. For more than 20 years, this Jamaican-owned, family-run property has been welcoming guests who yearn for a relaxing and authentic island getaway. The all-inclusive, adults-only resort attracts guests who are drawn by its commitment to celebrating Jamaica’s unique culture and natural beauty.
Here are a just a few reasons to book a stay at this hidden gem:
- The resort features both a pristine beach and jungle-like gardens, allowing guests to experience all the aspects of nature that make this island so special.
- Within the gardens, the resort offers 85 treehouse-style guest rooms. Each room features a king-sized bed, private balcony, large bathrooms, and plenty of windows that usher in both natural light and the serene melodies of nature.
- The groundskeeping crew offers weekly nature tours so guests can learn about the plants that surround them in the gardens. The luckiest tour participants may also catch a glimpse of some of the species of animals that make their home here. Among the most interesting is the swallowtail hummingbird or “doctor bird,” which is only found in Jamaica and is so beloved that its image even appears on stamps and currency.
- On most nature tours, guests get the chance to meet Betty the goat, one of the resort’s most famous “employees.” Goats are an important part of Jamaican culture, so Betty offers the opportunity to interact with an animal that’s essential to island life.
- Betty isn’t the only employee loved by guests. The entire staff of Sunset at the Palms regularly earns rave reviews from visitors, who appreciate the feeling of genuine island hospitality they receive here. The resort team believes that its visitors arrive as guests, leave as friends and return as family.
- As part of their all-inclusive experience, guests can enjoy meals at locations throughout the resort. There are plenty of opportunities to sample ackee and saltfish, the Jamaican national dish, or an incredible variety of local fruits. (Try the sweetsop AND the soursop and decide for yourself which is better!)
- If they’re inspired by all that local cuisine, guests can participate in a cooking demo so they know how to make Jamaican jerk chicken when they return home.
- At the bars, local Appleton Estate rum is infused into countless tropical drinks, and Red Stripe is the beer of choice. Those who want something cold but alcohol-free can do as the locals do and order a Ting.
- A complimentary mixology class lets guests learn the finer points of making those delicious tropical drinks themselves.
- For a pick-me-up, guests can try a cup of Jamaica’s famed Blue Mountain coffee, which will likely make them disappointed in caffeinated beverages they drink anywhere else.
- Those famed Blue Mountain coffee grounds can be found in some of the treatments at the resort’s Ginger Lily Spa. For an additional fee, guests can arrange treatments that feature coffee or other local ingredients like brown sugar and coconut oil.
- To help guests get in touch with Jamaica’s musical culture, the resort offers live entertainment every night, from a resident pianist to a reggae band and to steel pan players.
- Guests who book at least 60 days out and stay for five or more nights get the added perk of round-trip transportation from Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay. (Note: Sunset at the Palms MUST receive flight arrival details at least 60 days prior to arrival.) Those guests also get expedited arrival service at the airport through Club Mobay, a program via which local ambassadors escort visitors through the customs process. Many of those ambassadors are students studying tourism who are eager to share their passion for the island.
The resort also offers a variety of deals and packages to help make a trip to Jamaica even more affordable when booking directly through its website. View these specials here.
