Trelawny and Falmouth coastline
Jamaica · North coast

Trelawny & Falmouth

Large, modern resorts placed midway between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. Trelawny is where families and big groups get the most for their money, and where waterparks and kids' clubs are part of the property rather than an excursion.

The place

  • Some of the island's newest large-scale resorts

Advisor’s notes

  • Ask about connecting rooms early — they are limited and go first
  • Adults-only sections exist inside family resorts; worth requesting
  • The Luminous Lagoon is best on a dark night, not a full moon

Good to know

Questions

Is Trelawny good value?

Generally yes — the newer large resorts compete hard, and rates are often better than equivalent properties in Montego Bay or Negril.

How far is the airport?

Around 45–60 minutes from Sangster International, and roughly the same from Ocho Rios in the other direction.

Can adults have a quiet trip here?

Yes, if we place you in the right section. Several resorts run adults-only wings with separate pools and restaurants.
