“Jamaica is the perfect place for Princess Hotels & Resorts to expand its offerings. Not only are the resorts beautiful, but they are built with intentional infrastructure to be as sustainable as possible. We have committed to local environmentalists to preserve the precious mangroves that are [sic] resorts are built around and will provide educational programs for children about how the mangroves function,” Enrico Pezzoli, general manager, said. “Additionally, we are completely self-sufficient with electricity, natural gas and water that we produce through wells, which provides a more consistent quality and ability to self-sustain in case of bad storms.”

 

The resort sits 34 miles from Montego Bay Airport on a tranquil cove on Green Island, nestled in a mangrove. Princess Senses The Mangrove is an adult-only all-inclusive offering 401 ocean suites and 14 overwater villas, as well as 14 restaurants, 15 bars and a spa. Princess Grand Jamaica, on the other hand, is an all-inclusive, family-friendly resort with 590 suites, an aquatic park, kids club, thematic entertainment zone, nanny service and other activities.
