The Best Hotels Near Oleander, by the Record

  1. A cluster of villas perched on the cliff edge at Pristine Cove, Jamaica's westernmost point, where the horizon pool is carved into the bluff and appears to continue all the way to Mexico. The suites hang over the water with outdoor showers and sunset views that make the big all-inclusive resorts feel like a category error. Four-poster beds, muslin netting, ceiling fans, and a poolside bar doing the heavy lifting socially. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.


  2. The cottages at this low-key boutique hotel on Jamaica's south coast look like they happened by accident, in the good way: mismatched, sun-worn, and a few of them with outdoor tubs on sea-view decks that feel like lucky finds rather than amenities. The Michelin Guide has selected it. Getting here takes some doing, but locals and guests share the same pool and the same cheap beers, which is the whole point.
