Starfish Trelawny
Falmouth, Jamaica

JamaicaTripper Review: This all-inclusive resort, which is located about 45 minutes east of Montego Bay, is operated by the SuperClubs chain but isn't a super-inclusive property like the others. The all-inclusive package doesn't include some motorized water sports like waterskiing, the banana boat ride, snorkeling trips, and scuba diving; you'll pay extra for those. Also, you'll find more limited (included) bar offerings; premium local brands are part of the all-inclusive package but not premium imports. There is an upgrade package you can buy for more extensive offerings. All in all, this resort is a good deal for families in terms of both price and offerings; we like that the resort is a much shorter drive than family all-inclusives like Beaches Boscobel.

Clientele: Families as well as couples and singles

Good Choice If:

you are traveling with a family
you'd like an all-inclusive stay but you're content with a slightly more limited array of options
you'd like a family-friendly resort that's within easy driving distance of the Montego Bay airport

Bad Choice If:

you're looking for a quiet getaway
you don't want a high-rise (there are a limited number of low-rise rooms...our favorite!)
