Let The Caves Ignite Your Intrigue

June 7, 2011

The aroma of fresh Jamaican cooking entices you to enter. The bright flowers strewn around invite you to stay. The gentle glow of a hundred candles brings your focus to a table set for two in the middle of your private dining cave (yes, a real cave).

The Caves is a boutique resort in Negril, western Jamaica that is fashioned within the honeycomb cliffs that emerged from volcanic activity under the sea. What makes this such a fascinating site to see (and visit) is the natural beauty that has been preserved and embraced, in the making and maintenance of the cliffside resort. The natural pathway of winding steps and ledges passes fossilized marine life embedded within the walls.

The resort consists of 12 one and two bedroom cottages and suites, a deluxe four bedroom villa, and prides itself on the “organic romance” it provides to its patrons.

If the turquoise pool, the sapphire blue Caribbean Sea, and the long days of sunshine filled with unfathomable views don’t rejuvenate your mind and body, make your way down to the Aveda Amenity Spa located on-site. The Caves is the organic experience of Jamaica, without losing the luxury.
