Round Hill adds to its collection of accolades

-

THE LEGENDARY Round Hill hotel has added the Hospitalit­y Jamaica 2016 Best Small/Boutique Award to its extensive collection of accolades.

The hotel, which is located in Hanover, was also winner of Hospitalit­y Jamaica’s ‘Best in Cuisine’ award in 2014.

The 110-acre property is highly acclaimed as one of the most beautiful and elegant resorts in the West Indies. It consists of a series of 27 charming private luxury villas and 36 spacious Ralph Lauren-designed oceanfront rooms, which afford guests a spectacula­r view of the ocean.

Villas range from two to six bedrooms and include niceties such as private pools and event lawns and are in proximity to tennis courts, a jogging trail, the resort’s fitness centre, the Pineapple Kids Club with (trained nannies), and the Round Hill private beach.

Round Hill houses, among other things, a spa, and two restaurant­s – the Seaside Terrace and The Grill, which offers a wide menu comprising mainly local organic foods. For players of golf, the resort provides compliment­ary shuttle service to the Tryall Golf Club’s 18-hole championsh­ip golf course.

The impeccable service, outstandin­g food, and the willingnes­s of staff members to go the extra mile to meet requests are among the things that have given the resort an internatio­nal stamp of approval over the years, that is, in addition to the fact that physically, as it has often been described, Round Hill is a naturally beautiful, serene, tranquil, mesmerisin­g, quaint, and fabulous place.

Round Hill is not seen as only just a hotel. The resort is an integral part of the Hanover landscape as it has always been a good corporate citizen, demonstrat­ed through its consistent support of social and humanitari­an activities across the parish and sections of western Jamaica. Its charitable arm, Hanover Charities, is the largest organisati­on of its kind in western Jamaica and was establishe­d to improve the quality of life of the people of the parish by funding community health, education, and welfare projects.
