Frenchmans Cove

Looking for a peaceful idyll in a piece of paradise? Stay at one of the private cottages at Frenchman’s Cove and you’ll discover another Jamaica, far from the crowded all-inclusive of the tourist strip. Set above the gentle swells of the Caribbean Sea amidst expansive parkland and lush tropical growth, stunning cottages and rooms at The Great House villas provide comfort, privacy and access to the famous beach for which our resort is named.

There’s no other place quite like it. Think James Bond in Doctor No: sleek copper-roofed stone and glass cottages in a vibrant tropical setting. Developed in the 1960s, Frenchman’s Cove set the benchmark for top-end all-inclusive, the sort patronized by the very rich and the very famous, looking for the best of the Caribbean while protected from the public gaze. Even Royalty stayed here. Sadly damaged by Hurricane Gilbert in the 1980s, the main building, the cottages and the spectacular landscape have all been restored as a more accessible, environmentally friendly destination for those seeking peace and beauty a little off the beaten track. We host the environmentally friendly and socially conscious, whether as individual visitors, wedding groups or small conferences.

The Great House is at the centre of Frenchman’s Cove Resort. There are 10 spacious, air-conditioned rooms with private baths and balconies overlooking the gardens. Two suites have sitting rooms. At ground level there is a bar and TV area, lounge, and a large, covered open- air dining room complete with a lower level that can be used for seminars and workshops (see Group Facilities). And it’s just a two-minute stroll down to the beach.  As with all rooms within the Frenchman’s Cove resort, prices include breakfast at the main dining room within the Great House
