How to Spend a “Familymoon” in Jamaica

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - December 17, 2016

In line with the growing trend for newlyweds with children to take them with them on a  honeymoon or “familymoon,” Round Hill Hotel and Villas in Jamaica offers a mix of family and romantic experiences.

The resort’s award-winning kids’ club program and special spa activities will keep children and teens amused while parents unwind with spa treatments and romantic dinners.

The Pineapple Kids’ Club and 7-Up Club will keep children (aged between 3-12 years) entertained with a range of activities including: basketball, arts and crafts and drama.

The daily programs ensure each child has the opportunity to express their creativity.

While the kids are busy, newlyweds can unwind with Round Hill’s spa “Sunset Package,” a 50-minute couple’s massage with champagne and a fruit platter served on the pier with the Jamaican sunset as the backdrop.

Round Hill also offers after-hour nanny services, so parents can spend quality time together when the kids have gone to bed.

The Spa at Round Hill has also introduced an “All About Me” Tweens-Teens Spa Menu for children 12-16 years.

This special offering includes massages, facials, manicures, make-up and hair services.

Children and teens can learn Yodanga– a unique blend of Jamaican style dance moves that flow into yoga postures, challenging creativity and leaving guests feeling energized, focused and balanced.

Round Hill also offers a “Mini-Me” Spa Menu for little ones aged between 4 and 11.

The menu includes special facials, massages, manicures and pedicures and hair-braiding.

Families can stay in the Weekly Villa Hideaway, which was introduced earlier this year, and encapsulates warm Jamaican hospitality.

This special offer presents guests with accommodation in one of the property’s 27 secluded villas nestled within the resort.

Guests can choose between four villa options–from two to six bedrooms–each with its own dedicated staff including a cook, housekeeper and gardener, allowing guests to unwind with their loved ones whilst the villa staff anticipates and takes care of every need.

Over a seven-night stay, guests’ culinary palates will enjoy daily breakfast and afternoon tea, as well as two four-course dinners from Round Hill’s Executive Chef Maginley’s menu.

In addition to the resort’s two restaurants, there are also private dining options for couples and families, from a romantic gazebo dinner for two against a moonlit backdrop of the sea to a memorable family beachside dinner, which offers a custom-designed menu to suit all tastes and culinary presences.
