Jamaica Vacation - 2014

On February 24th we left Toronto on a one week vacation to Montego Bay, Jamaica. We had an enjoyable seven days of warm sunny days with all you can eat and drink at the recently renovated #Royalton White Sands Beach Resort in the Parish of Trelawny, a 45 minute drive east of Montego Bay.

The weather was perfect with one or two early morning showers of rain but the rest of the time beautiful blue sky's. Mid day temperatures averaged in the low 30’s while nights were in the low 20’s Celsius.
The people at the hotel were extremely friendly and went out of their way to please us. With the exception of a few small “teething” problems with the room, we had an excellent time at this resort and give it two thumbs up for recommendation.

Here are some of the pictures we took on our visit.
