APRIL IN JAMAICA
A Curated Life is thrilled to invite you to discover Jamaica – the quintessential Caribbean paradise where lush green mountains meet silken white sands and crystal-clear waters. Famed for its reggae rhythms, rich culture, and warm hospitality, Jamaica invites you to indulge in its vibrant cuisine, exotic fruits, and refreshing island cocktails while basking in the soothing ocean breeze.
Negril, Jamaica — a destination brimming with treasures—is eagerly awaiting your arrival. We invite you to embark on an unforgettable cultural immersion, with our home base at the charming Negril Treehouse Resort. This intimate, family-owned boutique property is nestled directly on Negril’s world-famous Seven Mile Beach, where crystal-clear waters and the soothing rhythm of the ocean create the perfect backdrop for your stay. With authentic Jamaican cuisine, personalized service, and a setting that embodies the warmth of the island, the Treehouse is the ideal sanctuary for both relaxation and adventure.
Beyond the beach, your journey will take you deep into Jamaica’s rich culture and natural beauty. Savor a guided visit to the legendary Appleton Estates, where you’ll explore the heritage of Jamaica’s finest rum. Rejuvenate in the cascading mineral pools of YS Falls, and immerse yourself in the soul of farm-to-table dining with the unique Zimbali Retreat experience—a family-owned farm nestled in the mountains, where you’ll enjoy a tour of the grounds and a live cooking demonstration led by the owner and chef.
To soothe your spirit, witness the island’s famed sunsets from the cliffside at Ivan’s, and later at the iconic Rick’s Café, where thrill-seekers dive into the turquoise sea as the sun paints the horizon. Round out your adventure with a visit to Negril’s vibrant craft market, where handmade treasures and local keepsakes await.
This journey is the perfect blend of luxury, cultural discovery, and pure island magic—crafted to create memories that will last a lifetime.
The Appleton Estate Rum Experience
Our journey begins in the heart of Jamaica’s lush Nassau Valley, home to the legendary Appleton Estate, the island’s oldest continuously operating distillery. For over 275 years, Appleton has perfected the art of rum-making, blending tradition, craftsmanship, and the unique character of Jamaica’s terroir. Here, ancient limestone-filtered waters and a tropical climate come together to produce some of the world’s finest aged rums—spirits that embody the soul of Jamaican culture.
On this immersive tour, you’ll trace the estate’s rich history, explore its time-honored methods, and witness firsthand how natural ingredients and artisanal expertise are transformed into world-class rum. From bright fruit notes to rich oak undertones, every sip tells a story of heritage, passion, and place. The Appleton Estate experience is more than a tasting—it’s a journey into the heart of Jamaica’s spirit.
Zimbali Culinary Retreat – A Gastronomic Jewel in the Hills
30 minutes from Negril lies a hidden sanctuary in the mountains—Zimbali Culinary Retreat. More than a dining experience, this is an immersion into Jamaica’s soul, where culture, nature, and world-class cuisine converge in breathtaking harmony.
Celebrated as the #1 restaurant in Jamaica on TripAdvisor for eight consecutive years, Zimbali is a haven for discerning travelers who appreciate authenticity wrapped in elegance. Family-owned and rooted in love, this oasis cultivates over 1,200 fruit trees, ensuring that every ingredient is as fresh and pure as the land itself.
Your journey begins with a guided farm tour through lush orchards, where the island’s bounty thrives. Then, step into a bespoke mountain cooking studio and indulge in a five-course culinary performance, each dish crafted before your eyes by a master chef. Paired with fine wine, each course elevates the senses—an intimate celebration of flavor, tradition, and artistry.
This is more than a meal; it is a rare cultural encounter and a feast for the soul. From the serenity of the mountains to the warmth of the hosts, Zimbali promises an unforgettable experience—where luxury meets authenticity, and every moment feels like a treasure.
YS Falls – A Timeless Escape into Nature’s Luxury
Your journey to YS Falls begins along idyllic country roads, where fields stretch wide beneath distant mountains, and horses and cattle graze beneath towering trees. This gentle approach sets the tone for what awaits: one of Jamaica’s most enchanting natural sanctuaries.
At the heart of the estate, seven cascading waterfalls tumble into natural pools, inviting you to immerse yourself in cool, crystal waters that soothe and rejuvenate. For those seeking a gentler retreat, the spring-fed natural pool—floored with smooth river pebbles and a comfortable four-foot depth—offers a serene swim for all ages.
The grounds themselves are a delight: expansive lawns adorned with vibrant gardens, ginger lily walkways, and shaded picnic nooks create the perfect setting for relaxation. And for a touch of adventure, a canopy ride awaits—zipping high above the waterfalls, offering breathtaking bird’s-eye views of this tropical paradise.
More than just a stop on our journey, YS Falls is an experience of balance: tranquility and thrill, elegance and nature, luxury and authenticity. Here, the island reveals its softer side—an indulgent escape where cascading waters and lush landscapes restore the spirit.
Ivan’s – Cliffside Dining at Sunset
Perched dramatically above the turquoise Caribbean Sea, Ivan’s Bar & Restaurant at Catcha Falling Star offers one of Negril’s most enchanting dining experiences. This beloved cliffside retreat is as famous for its breathtaking views as it is for its refined cuisine—an elegant blend of Caribbean flavors, fresh seafood, and classic Jamaican dishes with a modern twist.
Guests dine beneath an open-sided thatched roof or beneath the stars on intimate cliffside patios, where the sound of waves mingles with the glow of a golden sunset. From savory lobster to delicately prepared island specialties, every plate is as memorable as the setting itself.
More than a meal, an evening at Ivan’s is a celebration of romance, flavor, and the sheer beauty of Negril’s coastline—a moment destined to linger long after the last toast.
An Evening at Rick’s Café – Your Invitation to a Jamaican Tradition
Join us for an unforgettable evening at the world-famous Rick’s Café, perched on the cliffs of Negril’s West End. From this breathtaking vantage point, you’ll sip cocktails as the Caribbean sun sets in a blaze of color, casting golden light across the sea.
Here, the atmosphere is electric—watch daring cliff divers plunge into the turquoise waters below, or simply relax and take in the magic of one of Jamaica’s most iconic traditions.
This is more than a stop on our journey—it’s an invitation to share in a timeless Negril experience, where every sunset feels like a celebration designed just for you.
