The Caves truly offers a magical experience, nestled on stunning cliffs with breathtaking views of the sea. The unique cottages are beautifully decorated and well-stocked, while the service from the staff is genuinely warm and accommodating. The location is perfect for those looking to unwind in a serene setting, though the absence of a sandy beach on-site may require a short trip. The dining options are fantastic, with fresh and authentic Jamaican cuisine always on hand, though I wished there were more variety in the late-night offerings. Overall, it offers great value for a luxurious getaway.

The Caves is a hidden gem in Jamaica, offering stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere perfect for a romantic getaway. While the cottages are charming, some updates could enhance the experience. While the dining options were initially unique and authentically Jamaican, there seems to have been a shift to more Western-style cuisine. Overall, it's a beautiful place but perhaps not as exceptional as it once was.
