01 · In a sentence

The Tryall Club in Montego Bay, open JanuaryApril.

Built in 1938 as a private residence for a prominent plantation family, The Tryall Club evolved into one of Jamaica's most prestigious hospitality destinations.

This restored colonial estate spans 2,200 acres of manicured gardens and oceanfront property in Montego Bay, offering fine dining within restored plantation architecture.

The venue combines historic charm with contemporary culinary excellence, serving as both an operating private club and available restaurant for destination celebrations.

We cannot say enough about the staff at Tryall. Karolene at Wonderland made the trip absolutely magical. Her ability to adapt to my kids needs and make incredible Jamaican meals was an experience they will remember! Whatever she is being paid, double it!
