Secrets St. James Montego Bay

★ 4.5·Freeport Peninsula, Montego Bay·15 min from MBJ

Same peninsula as Wild Orchid, with a slower pace.

Secrets St. James is the more tranquil half of the Secrets peninsula. Its plantation-style buildings and quieter pools suit couples who want a relaxed day and then the option to stroll over to Wild Orchid when they feel like a livelier evening.
