The Caves, Negril

Description: The Caves

The Caves Hotel in Negril, is an organic interpretation of romance. Designed by Greer-Ann and Bertram Saulter, each of its 10 handcrafted cottages is planted in a garden on the edge of the sea. It's the perfect choice for guests who value spirituality, privacy, romance and verdant beauty. Its two seafront acres hide many secrets, sundecks and nooks, even grottos in the cliff itself. One of these grottos is designed for dining, lit with candles and strewn with flowers. The Aveda Mini-Spa looks out to deep blue water and the high-ceilinged cottages are made of wood and stone and are roofed in thatch. The rooms at the Caves are cozy and romantic, airy and spacious and designed with verandas and other elements such as outdoor showers that enhance a sense of openness.
