Some cool vacation to jamaica images:
Cabin and Blue Hole

You can rent this cabin for /night. No other cabins next to it (only a couple on the property anyway). You step out and right down to the spring water behind the house.

I am hoping Johnath swoops in to tell me all about this bird, though I half expect it to be some form of tropical gull. It was awkward looking, bold in temperament, and quite cute.
Jamaican Executive Chef, Omar Gordon

Born in Kingston, raised in Montego Bay, Omar Gordon pours his passions for gastronomy and his beloved Jamaica into creating sumptuous and satisfying dishes in his role as Executive Chef at the all-inclusive Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort Montego Bay.
Omar discovered the joy of cooking at the tender age of 14. By 16 he was already making a living in the kitchen. His first Executive Chef position with InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) came in 2005. By 2008, he was named to the executive team now directing the reinvention of the Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort under the stewardship of the Hendrickson family of Jamaica, which acquired the property in late-2008.
Chef Omar’s Jamaican heritage is well in evidence in dishes served throughout the property. Such local staples as Ackee and Saltfish, Jerk Chicken, Rice and Peas, Steamed Cabbage and Curry Goat are regularly available at the casual Sea Breeze Bar & Grill.
However, Omar’s professional expertise covers a wide range of culinary disciplines, including Caribbean, French, Italian, and continental cuisine. He describes his personal cooking style as “Mediterranean Fusion” and delights particularly in the creation of Italian dishes. His love for Italian cooking blossomed during his studies at the Apicius, The Culinary Institute of Florence, where he gained an intimate knowledge in the creative expression of the country’s native gastronomy.
It’s little wonder, then, that the top restaurant at the Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort is Sorrento, an elegant Italian trattoria, featuring a la carte dining and a Filetto Di Manzo Alla Gorgonzola signature dish that keeps guests coming back for more.
