Highlighting alternatives to Jamaica's large all-inclusive resorts, Caribbean National Weekly features five independent, Jamaican-owned properties that offer intimate, community-rooted experiences. These include Charela Inn and Negril Treehouse Resort along Negril’s Seven Mile Beach, the bohemian boutique Jakes Hotel in Treasure Beach, the family-run Negril Footeprints Hotel, and the centrally located Travellers Beach Resort. Together, these destinations provide travelers with distinctive farm-to-table dining, local artistic character, and personalized hospitality that showcase a different side of the island's tourism industry.
