We had the pleasure of staying at the Rhodes Resort during our stay in Jamaica last month. Located on the historic Rhodes Hall Plantation, the Rhodes Resort was a low key natural oasis of calm.
This is the perfect resort for nature lovers and interactive travelers. Free of frills and touristy tack, Rhodes Hall is a place of respite, reflection and connection.
Accommodation:
The Rhodes Resort has 27 all inclusive and room only, suites, villas and family cottages. Rooms and verandas are fully furnished with a local flair and come with a variety of amenities. We spent a lot of time hanging out with the peacocks that made a home in the mango tree at the corner of our veranda.
Maid service is available daily and towels and basic toiletries are provided.
Food:
The food at the Rhodes Resort is mainly provided by the Bay View Restaurant which is located on the resort. Along with phenomenal views of the Caribbean Sea, I appreciated the fact that I was served traditional Jamaican dishes and not Western inspired meals. You can order off the menu at the Bay View Restaurant or you can purchase a meal plan which covers three meals a day for a set fee. The meal plan is the way to go if you plan to spend the majority of your time on the resort as there are few other options due to its secluded nature.
Other dining options on the resort grounds include the Jerk Grill (seasonal) and the Plantation Bar.
Amenities:
- A mile of untouched private beach off of the Caribbean Sea
- Hammocks
- A healing salt water infinity pool
- Free shuttle service to and from Negril
Activities:
- Scuba Diving
- Mountain and Beach horseback rides
- Eco-Tours
- Mangrove and Crocodile Sanctuary Tours
- Arawak Cave Tours
- Bird Watching
- Snorkeling
- Glass bottom boat reef tours
A stay at the Rhodes Resort on the Rhodes Hall Plantation is a unique experience. It is a chance to intimately experience the raw and natural beauty of Jamaica and connect with the simple pleasures of life.
I'd like to thank the Rhodes Resort for a wonderful stay. We will be back!
