A fantastic family brand in the Caribbean is entering the spotlight, and its name is Sunscape. Sunscape Sabor Cozumel, for example, has blossomed in popularity as its innovative Unlimited-Fun® programme has made the headlines. Unlimited-Fun’s® concept is simple: it’s an all-inclusive programme designed specifically for families. Parents are worry-free and kids thoroughly entertained through an effortless balance of excitement, relaxation, and comfort. This translates into unlimited food and drink, boatloads of entertainment, and plush rooms complete with smile-inducing views.
We’re on the cusp of welcoming a brand-spanking new hotel into the Sunscape family: Sunscape Montego Bay Jamaica. The Sunscape Philosophy will henceforth be fused with two key features: 1,800 feet of prime Caribbean beachfront and quintessential Jamaican hospitality.
The Newest Member
Sunscape Montego Bay will sit peacefully in a sequestered peninsula, a tucked-away hide-away in a beautiful corner of Jamaica. The fun will start as soon as you cross the threshold, with a family check-in experience that combines red carpet stairs, a welcome treat, and resort passports for kids. It’s your gateway to a hotel designed to inspire holidaymakers of all ages, and the resort’s arsenal of on-site inclusions fulfils this promise.
You’ll have 4 swimming pools at your disposal, comprising 1 main pool with a swim-up bar, an activities pool, a quiet pool and a children’s pool – a pool for every occasion, if you will. Venture further and you’ll find a bottomless bag of beach volleyball, tennis, bocce ball, movies on the beach, and many more land-based activities. If you’ve got a taste for the sea air you can get your flippers flapping with kayaks, snorkelling, and scuba diving (for an additional fee).
A number of quality Caribbean golf courses reside in the local area, namely White Witch Golf Course, Half Moon Golf Club, Tryall Golf Club, and Three Palms Ocean Course at Wyndham Rose Hall. And that’s on top of all the tours and excursions at your disposal, including the Rose Hall Great House, the famed Dunn’s River Falls, and many more than I have the breath to enumerate here. Sunscape Montego Bay will offer a buffet of stellar experiences, unified under the spotless mantel of the Sunscape Resorts ethic.
Sunny Side Up
The benchmark for quality all-inclusive experiences is food. We all love to get our munch on, and better meals make better deals. A triplet of no-reservation à la carte restaurants will rustle up Italian, Pan-Asian fusion, and local specialities, supported by a buffet restaurant and a chilled-out café. 24-hour room service for Sun Club guests will ensure round-the-clock access to tasty titbits, with kid-friendly options to keep the smallest mouths satisfied. For those moments you want something slightly more civilised, 5 bars are on-hand to keep the conversation flowing. And it’s all included in the Unlimited-Fun® programme, naturally.
The Sun Also (Sup)rises
What separates a good resort from a great resort, especially in the world of family-friendly holidaymaking, are bespoke features that take your experiences to a new echelon. The raison d’etre for this blog is highlighting said features, so here’s a showcase of Sunscape Montego Bay’s most distinguished assets:
Pirate’s Paradise Waterpark
Your kids will be utterly lost for words at the sight of the Pirate’s Paradise Waterpark. Junior holidaymakers will rack-up some buccaneer-level fun in the full-size pirate ship fort, and they’ll swashbuckle on the 40-foot pirate’s plank bridge and 250-foot waterslides. You’ll be envious of all the fun, truth be told.
Montego Bay Marine Park
Sunscape Montego Bay is hugged by the Montego Bay Marine Park, Jamaica’s first fully underwater national park. Protected swimming and extraordinary snorkelling are part and parcel of these waters, conveying that straight-from-the-movies vibe we all hope to discover in the Caribbean.
Explorer’s Club for Kids
As one of the largest supervised kids club in Montego Bay, the Explorer’s Club for kids will have more than a few tricks up its sleeves. Children aged 3-12 can get stuck in with different programmes based on science, nature, and exploration, including arts & crafts, a playground, movie nights and sand castle competitions. One night a week kids have the opportunity to sleep in tents on the beach (with your approval, of course).
Core Zone for Teens
Teens sometimes feel tapped in entertainment no-man’s-land: too old to participate in the kids club; too young to sample the adults’ facilities. The Core Zone remedies this dilemma, providing activities for holidaymakers aged 13-17. The not-so-junior members of the clan can chill out, play some table football, shoot some pool, or dabble on the PlayStation.
Dawning of a New Age
Set to open 23 Dec 2015, Sunscape Montego Bay heralds a golden age of family-friendly holidaymaking, set apart by its quest for greatness.
If you’d like to be amongst the first people in the known universe to sample Sunscape Montego Bay, have a press of that friendly orange button. Trust me, it’s a solid-gold option for that 2016 holiday you’ve been planning.
You really can please everyone, fellow Traveller, and Sunscape Resorts are the way forward.
