Explore, Experience and Enjoy Abundant Pleasure and Fun!

JAMAICA, A DESTINATION OF DIVERSITY FOR THE DISCERNING TRAVELER 


http://www.funjet.com/default.aspx?plcode=4435912434

Jamaica has led the way in Caribbean tourism for years, and has cultivated an environment in which visitors from all over the world can enjoy the island's natural beauty and diverse culture.
With its dramatically beautiful coastlines, soaring mountains and rushing waterways, Jamaica is an island of countless natural attractions. Driving around is fascinating. The ever-changing landscape ranges from white-sand beaches as far as the eye can see to tropical jungle deep in the heart of the rain forest, and from verdant hilly regions that may remind you of the English countryside to rugged plains that recall the savannas of Africa.
North, south, east or west? Each of Jamaica's regions has its own distinctive vibe.  Take a look and let Jamaica capture your imagination and heart. Come and be swept off your feet. An abundance of pleasure and fun awaits in JAMAICA…the Home of All Right!

EXPLORE OUR UNIQUE ISLAND WITH A MODERATE CLIMATE AND A LANDSCAPE THAT RANGES FROM TROPICAL RAINFOREST AND SOARING MOUNTAINS TO ROLLING MEADOWLAND AND DRAMATIC COASTLINES. JAMAICA IS A LAND OF ADVENTURE, SOPHISTICATION AND ELEGANCE. ALONG WITH THE CARIBBEAN'S BEST SUN, SAND AND SEA, THIS DESTINATION HAS AN INTRIGUING HISTORY THAT HAS CREATED ONE PEOPLE OUT OF MANY, AND A CULTURE THAT IS UNMISTAKABLY JAMAICAN. 

So whether you're planning a trip with friends, family members or simply to unwind or whether it's for romance, a wedding, or a honeymoon getaway, you'll find something to meet your need in the diversity of Jamaica's resort areas.

EXPERIENCE OUR SIX DISTINCT RESORT REGIONS:

Montego Bay... the complete resort
Located on Jamaica's northwest coast, this highly popular resort area is where the beaches are edged by flowering trees and palm-dotted hills, making a lush backdrop to long stretches of rolling meadowland. With the Sangster International Airport located right outside of town, Montego Bay or MoBay as it is popularly called, is easy to get to and offers a bustling, colorful “hip strip” of shops and restaurants, and many different types of resorts and hotels.  MoBay is perfect for couples looking for the “complete resort” experience. Relax on the beach, go river rafting, enjoy one of five major championship golf courses, experience one of the luxurious spas or pay a visit to Doctor's Cave Beach, which is fed by mineral springs and said to have medicinal benefits. You'll know immediately why this area has been called el golfo de buen tiempo, meaning the gulf of good weather.
Negril ... the capital of casual
At the western tip of the island, just a half-hour's drive from Montego Bay, Negril is known for its natural beauty, with a seven-mile ribbon of white-sand beach and perfect conditions for swimming and snorkeling. Grotto-lined cliffs stretch to the old Negril Lighthouse, built in 1894. Go snorkeling in the morning and spend the day sunbathing and listening to live music along famous Seven Mile Beach.  Experience the exhilaration of cliff jumping among the coves. The ambience is relaxed, the mood is laid-back, the fashion is casual. On select beaches here you can take it all off.
Ocho Rios... centerpiece of Jamaica
Located on Jamaica's northern coastline, Ocho Rios is a major port for cruise ships and offers many beautiful resorts and beaches.  This region is home to one of the island's much-photographed and best known natural attractions: Dunn's River Falls, a dramatic  600-foot cascading waterfall which can be climbed by foot and not far from where Columbus first landed more than 500 years ago. Amazed by the island's beauty, the explorer declared: “the land seems to touch the sky.” You are certain to make your own discoveries in this stimulating yet tranquil resort area. Other special attractions include great shopping, crafts markets, gorgeous gardens, swimming with dolphins at Dolphin Cove, a tour of Nine Miles, the birthplace of reggae legend Bob Marley and the site of his mausoleum.  Adventurous travelers can also experience a rainforest canopy tour with Chukka Caribbean Adventures or enjoy the bobsled experience at Mystic Mountain.
Port Antonio ... naturally
Considered one of the most naturally beautiful and authentic parts of Jamaica, Port Antonio rests on the northeast side of the island. Nestled between twin harbors where mist-shrouded mountains drop down to the sea, Port Antonio glows with the green hues of palms and ferns, laced with the brilliant reds and yellows of its tropical flora. Orchids, bananas and palm trees grow in profusion. Put on the map by Errol Flynn, Port Antonio is rich with history and splendor. Take a hiking expedition to glistening waterfalls and hidden caves, go rafting down the Rio Grande River on a bamboo raft, or take a romantic dip in the natural springs at Reach Falls, where waterfall scene in “Cocktail,” the movie, was filmed.  You can enjoy excellent accommodations here at some of the island's most elegant villas and charming small hotels, tucked into hillsides and overlooking secluded azure coves.
Kingston ... the heartbeat of Jamaica
At the foot of the Blue Mountains, overlooking the world's seventh-largest natural harbour, Jamaica's vibrant capital is the heartbeat of the country and the largest English-speaking city south of Miami. The center of the country's government and commerce, Kingston is also Jamaica's cultural heart, with a wide variety of historical and cultural attractions. You'll find a sophisticated, upbeat nightlife and an inviting range of dining venues offering a cosmopolitan contrast to the rest of the island's slow and easy pace.
The capital city has much to offer visitors: a tour of a music recording studio and the Bob Marley Museum, a visit to historic Devon House, a vibrant theatrical and performing arts scene as well as the Carnival parade.
South Coast ... off the beaten track
Couples looking for a laid back Jamaican experience can wander off the beaten path to the South Coast.  With a rugged coastline, rambling hills, a river cutting through jungle wetlands, and a seaport defined by elegant Georgian architecture, the area known as South Coast is intriguingly diverse. If privacy and solitude are your preference, you'll discover perfection in isolated beaches where the only footprints are yours. The 19th-century sugar plantations here are a must-see if you're a history buff. Take a boat tour down Jamaica's longest navigable river and view an intriguing wildlife in the surrounding wetlands that includes snakes, lizards, frogs, iguana and crocodiles. Enjoy freshly cooked fish at “Little Ochie,” or visit the Appleton Rum Estate, one of the finest rum distilleries in the world.
And don't forget…Jamaica is also an island of countless natural attractions. In the past few years a whole bevy of new and expanded attractions is adding a new dynamic. Themed to showcase Jamaica's rich history and cultural heritage, these attractions are both entertaining and informative.
For sheer excitement, check out the huge roster of tours offered by local operators island wide. Wonderfully varied, they include: horseback riding on the beach; ATV tours; plantation visits; canopy tours; a Black River safari; a reggae tour; swimming with dolphins; catamaran cruises; rafting; and much more.  Enjoy an island of extraordinary beauty with a rich cultural wealth and a tremendous range of accommodations, fun and educational attractions, and delicious cuisine. Try Jamaica once.  We know you'll be back!

NuLife Travel 97TRAVEL14 (978) 728-3514

Or


RIU Hotels & Resorts has opened Splash Water World, an area with water attractions located in Punta Cana, which will add color, adrenaline and fun to the holidays of its guests. This is truly a new feature at RIU, which is for the first time opening an establishment specializing in aquatic activities. Splash Water World is being offered as a new amenity for guests at the five hotels in the area. Thus, the children and adults staying at the Riu Naiboa, Riu Palace Punta Cana, Riu Palace Macao, ClubHotel Riu Bambu and Riu Palace Bavaro have free admission to this aquatic zone on Calle CaribeƱa. Aquatic tubes, slides, lounge chairs and refreshments complete this novel entertainment option for the hotel chain.
The main water attractions are: Aquaracer, a four-lane, high-speed slide; Aquashute, a closed water tube; Body Vortex, a slide that “shoots” the person towards the pool; Kamikaze Slide, with a steep slope; and Stuka, a free-fall slide. The youngest visitors will also have fun at Splash Water World in Punta Cana, as the facilities include a children's pool with slides and special attractions just for them. Lastly, the aquatic complex has a solarium, where visitors can relax and sunbathe in lounge chairs, and a bar for enjoying soft drinks, juices and water.
With this project, the hotel chain satisfies the demands of the most daring guests and completes the experience offered by these five RIU hotels in Punta Cana located on the Arena Gorda beach. Splash Water World is the latest innovation the hotel chain has introduced in the Dominican enclave in the 25 years since it first became established in this tropical paradise.

    For all Groups Your Way bookings made to participating hotels, Funjet will contact the hotel 45 to 60 days prior to arrival to make them aware of the upcoming group. Funjet will send a final transmittal approximately 2 weeks from departure and will work with the hotel to ensure the group receives any applicable group inclusions, such as hotel comps. Within 2-4 weeks after travel, Funjet will contact the booking travel agent and advise of the ending comp value, if comps were earned. All comps are paid via refund to a reservation designated by the travel agent in the original form of payment. Please note our promo codes are based on the departure date only. We consider the ‘departure’ date the date your clients leave for their trip – the return date & length-of-stay have no bearing on our codes. As long as your clients are departing between the stated ‘valid departure dates’, the code will be valid.
