At Sandals Montego Bay, guests will have access to 11 dining options, including several new concepts.

The resort’s BLŪM coffee shop will serve Jamaica’s Blue Mountain coffee, while a new lobby bar will enhance the arrival experience.

Among the new venues is Bay Roc Rum Bar, which pays tribute to the former Bay Roc Hotel & Villas and will feature local artwork, memorabilia, vinyl records and themed cocktails inspired by Jamaican music from the 1950s through the 1970s.

Buccan, the family-style restaurant first introduced at Sandals Saint Vincent in 2024, will make its Jamaica debut. Located on the waterfront, the restaurant will showcase dishes inspired by Jamaica’s parishes through open-fire cooking and communal dining.

The new Parisol Beach Club will feature the brand’s first swim-up pool bar, a Jerk Shack and a made-to-order pizza counter, while Scrimshaw will specialize in seafood. Heart & Sol will offer smoothies and salads, and Tesoro will transition from global cuisine by day to Italian fare in the evening.

Returning favourites include Butch’s Island Chop House and Soy.
