Our favourite rooms
Rumba rooms are split level with sea and rainforest views, and each has its own private terrace balcony and well-curated Jamaica-centric art collection. Elsewhere, we love the Ska room for its Jacuzzi on the veranda and Mento for its secluded hammock hidden in the trees. That said, Drum & Bass is definitely the hot stepper. This junior suite on the ground floor of the recording studio comes with an enormous veranda, a sofa that calls for sprawling on, a Philippe Starck bathtub with stunning panoramic views, a steam shower, and folding windows which open the entire room up to the balmy tropical air. Water babies will love Sanwood, the three-bedroom villa, designed by Anthony Wade in the late ’60s, with its own pool and a nautical theme. Look out for Banksy doodles.
Poolside
Bushbar's infinity pool is the place to position yourself for all-day cocktails. Otherwise, it’s all about the private beach.
Packing tips
Conditioner – Jamaican hotels tend not to provide it, and it’s a necessity after all the sun, sea and sand; there is mosquito repellent in each room, but pack your own if you're prone to bites. Bring your guitar for midnight jamming.
Also
Leave your pets at home.
Children
Little Smiths are welcome, with free cots for babies and extra beds for children in select rooms. Babysitting is US$10 an hour, plus US$5 for each additional child (with 24-hours’ notice), and the restaurant has a children’s menu.
