Discover true island style and subdued sophistication throughout the 36 Ralph Lauren designed oceanfront guestrooms, 27 private luxury Jamaican villas and a series of exotic venues. All the Round Hill event spaces offer stunning views and are meticulously maintained by highly dedicated staff. The guestrooms located in Pineapple House overlook Round Hill Bay and are steps away from the infinity pool, boasting front row access to breathtaking sunsets. Each of the 27 complete luxury villas evoke a personality of their own, yet all share a common thread of modern refinement, classic style and exceptional service. Round Hill is simply one of Jamaica's finest venues for unforgettable events.

The Pineapple Room, an air-conditioned cottage tastefully decorated in vibrant Caribbean hues and elegant furnishings, is an ideal space for an informal meeting or gathering. For a larger number of people, Hanover Room is perfect - an enclosed, fully air conditioned room with floor to ceiling French windows and views of the tropical rain-forest to one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other side - all this with a capacity of up to 120 guests in theater-style. The Spa Lawn is a natural setting with its rolling hills, panoramic view of the Caribbean Sea and an 18th century Great House as the picturesque backdrop. This venue is perfect for casual events and cocktail receptions of up to 150 guests.

Round Hill is a landmark venue for private events including anniversaries, birthdays, engagements and weddings. Hosting only one wedding per weekend, Round Hill is an exclusive venue for high profile weddings. For a wedding with the wow-factor, guests can choose from a range of amazing settings: the verdant Spa Lawn with breath-taking turquoise sea and sky backdrop, an intimate golden sand beach, a secluded sprawling luxury hillside villa with spectacular sea views, or a lush private tropical garden setting. Whether for a business meeting, a private celebration or a destination beach wedding, Round Hill offers breathtaking event settings, unparalleled service and the finest in Caribbean hospitality.

History

A long-standing icon in Jamaica, Round Hill's roots are rich with history. Originally, the 100-acre peninsula was part of Lord Monson's Round Hill Estate - a sugarcane plantation that later grew coconuts and pimento (allspice). The peninsular bluff's fertile soil and ideal climate was also home to pineapple groves, which became forever prominent in the Round Hill logo and can be found sprinkled throughout the property.

Round Hill was conceived by Jamaica-born entrepreneur John Pringle, whose vision was to take the 'boutique' concept both onto another level and into a new domain. John was raised with hospitality in his veins, as his mother owned the former Sunset Lodge Hotel in Montego Bay and was a prominent social figure in Jamaica. After John completed schooling and served in the British Army, he spent a few years in New York City where he worked for Elizabeth Arden and ultimately left to open his own men's fashion boutique. After meeting his wife and starting a family, John wished to return to Jamaica with his family to put his ambition and talents to work.

The resort had many famous guests, for some of them Round Hill was an inspiration - many musicals have been written in Villa 12 by the original owner Oscar Hammerstein. It is at Round Hill where he met Maria von Trapp and "The Sound of Music" was written. For some, Round Hill was the most romantic place - John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy preferred to stay in Villa 10 - this was also the villa where they honeymooned. Round carries a rich heritage and has become one of the most prominent settings for exclusive events.
