Just in time for summer, Jamaica is easier to enjoy than ever thanks to new hotels and excursions. This Caribbean island has never been more alive than this year, and this summer is to be its best one yet.

New Hotels

Three new hotels call Jamaica home this summer. Princess Grand Jamaica opens this June in the tropical oasis of Green Island Hanover, located 15 minutes from Negril. Featuring 590 spacious suites, Princess Grand Jamaica offers guests a wide range of amenities, including á la carte restaurants, six swimming pools, a state-of-the-art fitness and wellness center, convention center and more. Even more, guests part of the brand’s Platinum Club receive benefits like private check-in, access to exclusive beach areas and premium drinks.

Princess Senses The Mangrove also hits the Jamaican scene, a luxury, adults-only retreat located on Green Island’s northwest coast. Featuring 415 ocean-view suites, including overwater villas and swim-out suites, the property is the ultimate oasis. Overwater villas come with their own infinity pools, too. The property boasts 15 bars, 14 dining venues, and immersive experiences and activities like mixology classes and spa treatments.

The third hotel opening in Jamaica this summer is Hotel Riu Palace Aquarelle, situated in Falmouth. This sleek property will feature 753 rooms with ocean views. The hotel’s all-inclusive, 24-hour concept means guests never go without their needs fulfilled. In addition to a gym and wellness center, the property includes six restaurants and bars, six swimming pools, and more.

New Excursions

Along the island’s north coast, visitors can soon take part in an adventure on the 2,000-acre Good Hope Estate with Chukka’s new V.I.P. tour. This new and exclusive tour includes private, round-trip transportation from major hotels in Montego Bay, Falmouth and Ocho Rios; private check-in; and reserved pool areas. The tour is the perfect way to enjoy the landscapes of Good Hope Estate.

Immerse in an Invigorating Thermal Journey at Scandinave Spa Whistler

The glittering green pines and burst of jasmine lake beyond almost made me forget about the aches in my legs that slowly developed after the promised hour-long hike ran into the third hour. And, oh, there were my hips, showing up to remind me I was no longer in my 20s. I didn’t mind, though, because the vision that surrounded me during our guided walk through Garibaldi Park to Cheakamus Lake in Whistler, British Columbia, with Mountain Skills Academy and Adventures proved worthy of a thousand postcards.

A Fusion of History and Modernity Makes Bangkok a Perfect Meeting Spot

In this city of contrasts, glass skyscrapers stand behind century- old temples. Street food vendors sling steaming noodles along roadways while tucked-away restaurants serve multicourse, Michelin-level cuisine. Roadways jam with cars as jewel-toned tuk tuks whizz through the gridlock. Long considered a tourist mecca, Bangkok also makes for a dynamic, budding location for corporate travelers.
