"Images of thatch-roof stone villas and bright red ladders into the sea capture the property’s emblematic Jamaican cool: the hotel honors its 50-year pop-culture history (Bob Marley and the Rolling Stones leapt from its cliffs) and keeps rooms simple and authentic with four-poster beds, mosquito nets, local quilts, and palm-fringed outdoor showers. The food celebrates Jamaican classics—especially at jerk spot Pushcart where DJs spin for regular dance parties—making Rockhouse a place where the crowd really knows how to have a good time." - Lauren Burvill
"Celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Rockhouse channels a distinct Negril cool with thatch-roof stone villas, bright red ladders plunging into the sea, and a pop-culture pedigree (Bob Marley and the Rolling Stones famously jumped off its cliffs). Rooms are simple and island-authentic—four-poster beds with mosquito nets, locally sourced quilts, palm-fringed outdoor showers, and stone floors—while the food is a primer in Jamaican classics, especially at jerk spot Pushcart where DJs fuel regular dance parties." - Ruth C. White

"A storied, cliffside boutique property in Negril known for dramatic ocean views and a cool, celebrity-tinged past, with guests historically diving from the rocks. The forty-room hotel features breathtaking thatched-roof villas made from hewn stone, a strong culinary focus that sources ingredients from an oversized hydroponic greenhouse, and a relaxed yet stylish atmosphere that highlights the raw beauty of the coastline." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.

"A clifftop Negril retreat built from local stone and thatch, this Green Globe–certified property balances laid-back luxury with community stewardship—its nonprofit foundation has invested millions in local schools. The 40 accommodations (including new 800-square-foot Ocean View Suites) were designed to blend into the landscape and the resort offers snorkeling, a spa, a hydroponic greenhouse, immersive eco-programs like candle-making, and innovative wellness offerings such as a psilocybin sound-bath session." - Laura Begley Bloom
