Westmoreland Group Travel
Westmoreland is Jamaica's westernmost parish, and it's where the island slows down. This is the quieter, greener, more local side of the west end: rolling countryside and cane fields, working fishing villages, mineral springs bubbling up out of the rock, and a coastline that stretches well past the famous beach town of Negril. Savanna-la-Mar, or "Sav" as everyone here calls it, is the parish capital and its busy market heart, while Bluefields Bay to the south is all calm water, fishing boats, and easygoing beach days. Your whole crew flies into Montego Bay's airport (MBJ), and from there it's a scenic drive down the coast to a base that feels a world away from the crowds. Pack the group chat with excursion ideas. We'll handle the rest.
Westmoreland suits groups that want nature and real Jamaican culture front and center, with Negril's beaches and nightlife close by whenever they feel like turning things up. Family reunions spread out at all inclusive resorts with room for every generation, then spend a day floating at a mineral spring. Milestone birthdays turn into long weekends of countryside tours, rum tastings, and sunset dinners over the water. Wedding parties get a quiet ceremony on the coastline plus a laid-back setting for everyone to actually relax. Wellness retreats find river walks, waterfalls, and spring soaks made for it. Corporate groups swap the ballroom for a private beach cookout. Whatever you're planning, your Group Travel Specialist knows exactly which resort, package, and add-ons will make it land.

Top Reasons to Plan Your Group Trip to Westmoreland
- One easy airport for the whole crew. Everyone flies into Montego Bay (MBJ) and takes a single scenic transfer down the coast, so your group arrives together instead of scattering across islands.
- The quieter, more local side of Jamaica. Countryside, fishing villages, and an uncrowded coast make Westmoreland feel authentic and relaxed, a real break from the tourist rush.
- Negril's beaches and nightlife stay close. You get a calm home base with the famous seven-mile beach and cliff bars a short drive away for whenever your group wants to turn it up.
- Nature that becomes the itinerary. Mineral springs, gentle waterfalls, and river walks give groups genuine adventures that don't cost a fortune and work for every age.
- Group perks that stack up fast. Complimentary rooms, private dinners, cocktail receptions, and resort credits all grow as your group grows, and your specialist locks them in.
- All inclusive keeps it simple. Meals, drinks, and activities are bundled into one rate, so there's no splitting checks or chasing anyone for their share.
- Room to spread out and reconnect. Resorts here have space for big multi-generational groups without feeling packed, which is exactly what reunions and milestone trips need.
How to Plan a Group Trip in Westmoreland
1. Get matched to your Westmoreland resort. Tell your Group Travel Specialist the basics: group size, dates, celebration type, and a rough per-person budget. They'll shortlist the all inclusive resorts along Jamaica's west end that fit your crew, from quiet coastal spots south of Negril toward Bluefields to properties closer to the beach action, then send one quote to compare.
2. Pick your part of the parish. Decide whether you want a calmer, nature-forward base out toward Bluefields Bay and the countryside, an in-between spot near Savanna-la-Mar for markets and local culture, or something within easy reach of Negril's seven-mile beach for the days your group wants sand and nightlife. Your specialist matches the location to your celebration.
3. Lock in your room block and group perks. For 10 rooms or more, the resort's group coordinator holds your rooms, sets your dining, and adds extras like a welcome cocktail hour or a private beach dinner. Book six to nine months out for 10 to 20 rooms, and nine to twelve months ahead for 30-plus or the busy December-to-April high season.
4. Invite your group online. Everyone gets a personalized planning website to reserve their room, set a payment schedule, and see travel tips, including that the whole group flies into Montego Bay (MBJ) and takes a scenic drive down the coast to Westmoreland. You track who's booked on a live dashboard while your specialist nudges the holdouts.
5. Arrive at MBJ and celebrate. Your crew lands in Montego Bay, settles into the ride southwest along the coast, and rolls up to a resort that already knows your group by name. The countryside, the springs, and the quiet coast are waiting, and the only thing left to coordinate is the first round.
