Excellence Oyster Bay All-inclusive Resort Review: Jamaica's Hidden Gem 2025

As I arrived at Excellence Oyster Bay, I was instantly captivated by the beauty surrounding me.

Imagine a secluded peninsula where the vibrant turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea kiss the soft, pristine white sand beaches. This 5-star, adults-only all-inclusive resort in the heart of Falmouth, Jamaica, is a hidden gem, just a convenient 30-minute drive from the lively atmosphere of Montego Bay.

From the very first moment I stepped onto the property, I could feel the luxurious ambiance that permeates this tropical paradise. The impeccable service and world-class amenities were apparent, immersing me in an atmosphere designed fortotal relaxation and indulgence. Every detail here is carefully curated to ensure a tranquil experience, making it clear that this resort has mastered the art of hospitality.

In this Excellence Oyster Bay review, I™ll take you on a virtual tour of this Caribbean escape. I'll reveal the unique offerings that have made it a standout choice for travelers seeking a romantic getaway or a much-needed retreat from the daily grind. With so much to explore, Excellence Oyster Bay not only meets expectations but consistently strives to exceed them,with some drawbacks though.

These ground-level rooms feature a larger private pool just steps away from your room.

Rooftop Terrace Suite with Plunge Pool


This option is oceanfront and exclusively available to Excellence Club members. Although it comes at a slightly higher price point, the experience is well worth it. Honeymooners particularly enjoy this room type with 950 square feet (88m2), upgraded amenities and ocean view.

Excellence Club Beach House with Plunge Pool

Similar to the previous room category, these accommodations are situated in a separate, condo-style building with only a few rooms, offering a more intimate experience compared to the larger hotel structure.
