Your complimentary transfer to and from the resort will be arranged by Sandals.  Climb aboard your bus and enjoy your included roundtrip airport transfer from Montego Bay Airport to Sandals Grande Riviera Beach and Villa Golf Resort. The journey takes approximately one hour and forty five minutes, so sit back and enjoy the magnificent scenery along the way.


ISLAND INFORMATION
There’s a magic to Jamaica that is as soul-stirring as a sunset and as innocent as a child’s smile. Wherever you go in this enchanted paradise, you will find natural beauty so stunning, it will take your breath away. And people so genuinely friendly and hospitable, it will warm your heart. Jamaica is home to a breathtaking landscape of rolling mountains lined by endless white sand beaches, carpeted by lush foliage and crisscrossed by rolling rivers and cascading waterfalls. Take a lazy raft ride on Montego Bay’s Martha Brae River. Climb world-famous Dunn’s River Falls in Ocho Rios or watch the cliff divers at Rick’s Café in Negril. And in uncharted Whitehouse, you will discover pristine nature as wild and unspoiled as first love. In Jamaica, once you go, you know.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica
Luxuriant greenery, mountains that loom over white sand beaches and the world-renowned Dunn's River Falls are what make Ocho Rios such an extraordinary destination. Beautifully nestled in the center of Jamaica's North Coast, Ocho Rios is home to natural wonders, colorful crafts markets and exhilarating activities alike.

Sandals Resorts now boasts one of the finest Golf Courses in the Caribbean. Golf Digest Magazine granted a four star rating for courses to play while on vacation.
