Has anyone been to Jamaica recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there last year and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers
Best time of year to visit Jamaica?

Did you use local sites or find girls at bars?

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.
