DESCRIPTION: |
|
The mountains of Jamaica are an unlikely
location for one of the island's premier
resort experiences, but this is exactly
where you will find the Strawberry Hill
resort and spa. Don't be fooled by the
name, there are no strawberries to be
had on the
acreage that the property sits on, nor
is there a beach. Sand skipping and
downing tall-glassed Daiquiris are not
on the roster of activities at
Strawberry Hill.
What the property does offer is a
delectable, near private retreat in a
destination that is one of the most
popular in the world. Because of this
the property hosts the most
distinguished guests, guests that wish
to escape the prying lenses of the
paparazzi, while feeling free enough to
take a botanical walk, rain forest bike
ride or a cultural tour which affords
them a true Jamaican experience.
That said, this resort is not for
everyone. Some might think it insane to
visit Jamaica and not be on the beach.
Some may be uncomfortable flying into
Kingston instead of the tourist-filled
Montego Bay airport. Travelers might
want their dinner menu fixed, instead of
a rotation of culinary choices that
incorporate much of the spices and
produce grown locally. For the rest of
us, Strawberry Hill is a much welcomed
departure from the norm. |
