On the north coast of Jamaica lies a brand-new wedding and honeymoon destination unveiling May 2023 featuring luxurious amenities and access to the destination's gorgeous Dunn's River Falls.
On the north coast of Jamaica lies a place where meandering rivers and cascading waterfalls wash over the landscape. It’s here, against the backdrop of the famed Blue Mountains, that a spectacular new beachfront resort rises from the echoes of the past to redefine luxury for the modern age. Introducing Sandals Dunn’s River, where life and love come naturally.
This captivating new resort in Ocho Rios is designed to embrace the essence of Jamaica – the land of wood and water, as it’s known – with rolling rivers and lush landscapes. With every luxurious amenity found here, including the most sumptuous suites and accommodations, 11 gourmet restaurants, nine bars, and five alluring pools, it’s the perfect destination for weddings and honeymoons.
At Sandals Dunn’s River, every wedding is designed to make dreams come true, bringing your vision for your perfect wedding to life. Every moment is carefully planned with help from a dedicated team of wedding professionals, from the ceremony to the reception, as well as for every event from pre-wedding festivities to post-wedding activities and excursions for you and your wedding guests. What makes this wedding experience even more extraordinary is that, once the vows are exchanged, the honeymoon begins for you while your guests get the vacation of a lifetime.
Every day at Sandals Dunn’s River is designed to be different. Head to Dunn’s River Falls, where waterfalls terrace down from lagoon to lagoon, perfect for swimming, and hiking trails offer stunning views and a great workout for additional activities. And Sandals Resorts isn’t just name dropping by including this natural icon in its new resort's name... Spring water from Dunn’s River actually flows through the entire resort.
Speaking of water... watersports are always included at Sandals Resorts. That includes self-propelled activities like kayaking, windsurfing, and paddleboarding, but there’s a whole new world to explore beneath the surface, which is why Sandals Resorts also includes scuba diving as an activity option for certified divers.
Those who prefer to keep their feet on land will find lots of options, too. Golfers will love the complimentary green fees at the nearby Upton Estate Golf & Country Club. If you’re looking to just relax beneath the sun after so much wedding and honeymoon planning, you can float your time away at five incredible pools, including two meandering river pools.
After so much fun and frivolity throughout the wedding week, you and your guests have likely worked up quite an appetite. Sandals Resorts elevates dining into an unforgettable culinary experience at 11 mouthwatering restaurants. This epicurean voyage around the world takes you from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean and to the far reaches of Asia.
Go Greek at Edessa, a sophisticated restaurant where Greek-inspired cuisine meets the Caribbean in a relaxing venue overlooking the aquamarine sea. Italian specialties are served with amore at Cascata, while L’Amande showcases the traditions of France’s finest dining establishments. Those with a taste for the exotic flavors of the Far East will find them at Banyu and at Hanami’s sushi bar.
Drinks are always on the house at Sandals Dunn’s River, with unlimited pours of premium brand liquors served around the clock at nine new bars that range from the signature swim-up bar to a rooftop lounge and sultry jazz lounge. The Sandals Rum Club makes its debut at Sandals Dunn’s River, serving cocktails made with Jamaican rums artfully mixed with locally sourced ingredients like coconut creme sourced from home-grown coconuts and fresh island sugar cane.
Sandals Resorts has always taken romantic honeymoon suites beyond the imagination, and that certainly holds true at Sandals Dunn’s River. Step onto your balcony and into an infinity-edge plunge pool while casting your gaze on an endless horizon in the SkyPool Suites. Sandals has also raised the roof on the swim-up Rondovals™ suite concept. Perched along a winding river pool with private plunge pools and Tranquility Soaking Tubs™ for two, some even offer luxurious rooftop decks.
