It’s so Ochi! Young, hip, vibrant, bold and beautiful. It’s a warmth, a glow, a feeling you get as you immerse yourself in the newly remodelled Sandals Ochi. Located in the lush and gorgeous Ocho Rios, Jamaica, Sandals Resorts has just celebrated the official Grand Opening of their multi-million dollar renovation, and it is stunning. They have completely redesigned and refreshed Sandals Ochi to provide their guests with an experience of a lifetime. Sandals Ochi is a reinvented resort featuring upgraded and luxurious accommodations, a booming night life, beachside or hillside living, more than 100 pools and enough dining options to please every guest, in every way.

Captivating pools. Incredible Service. Romance around every corner. A party at the beach or a quiet moment at the hidden pool. You can choose to do it all or nothing at all at the brand new Sandals Ochi. To tell the tale of Sandals Ochi is to tell the tale of two sides of this very diverse resort.
For the couple seeking quiet and romance, there are the serene paths to amble down, plush beach beds for two and hidden paths and doorways to discover. Wandering around you might feel like you are lost in your own private paradise.
For the couple seeking even more privacy? Seek out one of the secluded lounge chairs that dot the property, quiet places by the fire and the water. The perfect place to read a book, dream the day away, or make plans for your next big adventure.
As the sun beats down you may find the biggest decision of the day becomes which frozen drink to indulge in next. Drink in hand I would suggest you and your loved one should venture out in search of the elusive hidden pool; insider tip, it’s worth the hunt.
All of Sandals Ochi lends to the feeling of being catered to, pampered and spoiled. No room accommodation accomplishes this better than the ultimate of love nests, the Romeo & Juliet Suites.
Tucked high into the hills of the St. Ann Mountains, these intimate retreats offer the epitome of privacy and luxury. The suites come with their own Butler, driving in his own golf cart, and are comprised of a stunning mahogony four poster bed, a separate kitchenette and lounge area, and a completely private courtyard with a personal pool and spa. You may never want to leave.
As night time falls you can seek quiet corners to chat and connect by one of the many fire features that speckle the property.

Or mix it up a bit and challenge your loved one to a spirited game of Taboo with new friends.
When you’ve had enough quiet time and are ready for a little night life, dare I say yearning to channel your inner Ochi? Then it’s time to seek out the hot and happening beach and pool parties. From morning to night there is always a party going on at Sandals Ochi. The music pounds, the drinks flow, movies are playing, there’s a rock climbing wall or a DJ under the stars. You can dance until you nearly drop and then stroll back to your home away from home under the twinkling caribbean stars.

Don’t forget the 11 restaurants and 16 bars to keep you busy. My personal picks; the Jerk Shack and the Rabbit Hole Speak Easy, these are the hottest tickets in town and the fastest ways to heat up your evening. Be warned, the chicken at the Jerk Shack may just change your life. It will ruin you for all other chicken, ever, it’s that good.

The Rabbit Hole Speak Easy will transport you back in time to the roaring 20’s, but beware, not all can enter.
If you plan to take in the best show on the island, indulge in some moonshine, and dance the night away 1920’s style, you have to know the password! No guests shall enter the Rabbit Hole Speakeasy without the secret word. How do you get it? That information and so much more to follow in a future post!
Sandals Ochi is eclectic and trendy, a luxurious adventrue. With accommodations to fit every taste, restaurants to please all, and seemingly a pool for every guest, Sandals once again proves the closer you look, the better they look. In my opinion, everyone needs a little Ochi.
This looks incredible!
Sandals Ochi really is worth exploring!
Sandals Ochi resort is breathtaking and I would love to be able to take a vacation in this stunning resort. I bet the food is delicious and the rooms are gorgeous. I want to go there so bad!
