Perched high in Jamaica’s Blue Mountains, Strawberry Hill is a breezy, colonial-style retreat with wraparound verandas, elegant cottages, a saltwater infinity pool and panoramic views stretching all the way to Kingston and the Caribbean Sea beyond.
Set on a secluded summit in the UNESCO-listed Blue Mountains, more than 3,000 feet above sea level, intimate Strawberry Hill remains one of the most magical places to stay in Jamaica.
The property stays faithful to traditional Caribbean architecture, with an elegant Main House and a string of Georgian-style cottages with balconies and terraces overlooking the mountains.
The views are best enjoyed from the hotel’s crown jewel, its freshwater infinity pool, which is surrounded by sun loungers and illuminated at night by a series of fire pits.
The restaurant puts a contemporary twist on traditional Jamaican dishes and sees well-to-do locals come up from the capital at weekends, lending an authentic, lively feel.
There’s a yoga pavilion, a soothing spa tucked into a nook in the mountainside and a guide on hand to lead hikes to hidden waterfalls and swimming spots.
