A private Jamaican estate of staffed villas, a Great House on the hill and a mile of beach.
The Setting
The Tryall Club sits at Sandy Bay, near Montego Bay on Jamaica's north coast, across roughly 2,200 acres running from the hills down to the sea. It is not a hotel in the usual sense. Guests stay in 74 fully staffed, privately owned villas, from one bedroom up to ten.
At the heart of the estate is a Great House from the nineteenth century, set high with views over the ocean and the golf course. Below it sit an 18 hole championship course along the coast, more than a mile of private shoreline, a heated infinity pool at the Beach Resort Club and the Livity Spa.
The day itself
The club offers four wedding spaces. The Great House Lawn and Terrace takes 120, Reville Lawn by the sea takes 200, and the Beach Club and Lawn is the largest at 300. For a very small ceremony, the Beach Gazebo out at the pier's end holds 20.
An on site event curator handles timelines, décor and trusted local suppliers, and the catering is designed by a celebrated chef. Ooshan, the oceanside restaurant, is a natural choice for a sunset dinner. Ask the team about legal ceremony paperwork in Jamaica and the music curfew.
Where your guests stay
Villas are the stay here. Book one large house for the couple and families, and scatter friends across smaller villas nearby, each with its own staff. Ask the team how many villas are free on your dates and whether the estate can be shared out across your group.
Between the main events there is golf, nine tennis courts and four pickleball courts, the spa, the beach club pool and wood fired pizza at the Beach Bar and Grill. Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay is about 14 miles away, a drive of 20 to 25 minutes. Peak season, when the weather is at its best, runs from January to March.
Put your ceremony on the Great House Lawn for the view down to the sea, then move everyone to the Beach Club for dinner and dancing. You get the hilltop photographs and the beach party in one evening.
