The elevated insider's guide to where to stay, eat, explore and experience Jamaica, from someone who has lived it, booked it, and has the receipts.
There are a thousand "ultimate Jamaica guides". This isn't one. The Jamaica Edit is what I'd tell you if you sat across from me with a glass of something and asked where you should actually stay.
Every hotel, restaurant, beach and excursion in it carries a stamp: I've been here, I've sent clients here, I'd spend my own money here, worth the splurge, beautiful but I wouldn't pay that, skip it. You'll know exactly which of those I'm saying, every time.
Join the list and you'll get the free "10 things" guide today, the Edit the day it launches, and the launch price before it goes to $39.



No. It's the list I use to book clients, with my own photos from years on the island and a stamp on every line telling you whether I've stayed there, sent clients there, or wouldn't book it for you. If I haven't been, it says so.
Because it replaces the two weeks of forum reading you were about to do and the one hotel you were about to book by mistake. Every season's update is included, which matters more than usual this year.
That's the point of the what's-open page. It's dated, it's sourced, and it's updated every season. After Hurricane Melissa, several big Montego Bay resorts are closed into 2027; the guide says so in plain language.
Yes. That's the other half of Ramp & Reggae. The guide is for people who want to plan it themselves with a friend looking over their shoulder.
