so expensive to go Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Jamaica is a very small island with few resources and a struggling economy. Virtually everything needs to be imported. It is now, and historically has been, more expensive than Mexico.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-it-expensive-to-stay-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Is it expensive to stay in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As one of the most affordable islands in the Caribbean, Jamaica has a wide range of options for travelers on every budget. The average traveler to Jamaica spends about $100 a day on their trip. Since the cost of living in Jamaica is lower than on some other Caribbean islands, items such as food can be very inexpensive.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-does-it-cost-to-stay-in-a-hotel-in-jamaica\"><\/span>How much does it cost to stay in a hotel in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The average hotel price in Jamaica is about $130\/night. But for under $200 a night, your accommodations will be basic and usually won&#39;t come with access to a beach. You can find some 3-star hotels on the beach for this price, but most do not have good reviews.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-montego-bay-safe\"><\/span>Is Montego Bay Safe?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>OVERALL RISK : MEDIUM. In general, Montego Bay can be safe if you follow common sense and be careful at night. Central areas may be less secure than the outskirts. Any contact with drug dealers and prostitutes should be avoided.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-nicest-part-of-jamaica\"><\/span>What is the nicest part of Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Where to Go in Jamaica: 5 Destinations You Can&#39;t Miss<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-month-is-best-to-travel-to-jamaica\"><\/span>What month is best to travel to Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The best time to go to Jamaica is November until mid-December, when resort and flight deals are great and peak season hasn&#39;t arrived yet. If you don&#39;t mind the crowds, your best bet is to visit Jamaica from mid-December until April, when the weather is optimal for a beach vacation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-montego-bay-or-negril-better\"><\/span>Is Montego Bay or Negril better?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The fact of the matter is, both are great places. If short airport transfers and a buzzing nightlife are important to you, Montego Bay is your pick. Looking for a more quaint and laid back destination, with some of Jamaica&#39;s best beaches? Negril is the vacation destination of your choice.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-jamaica-worth-going-to\"><\/span>Is Jamaica worth going to?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Jamaica is famous for being the birthplace of reggae and jerk, but there are so many more sides to the island. The country is home to some of the best beaches in the Caribbean, has eye-widening natural sites including waterfalls and lagoons, and produces one of the rarest coffees in the world.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-you-should-not-go-to-jamaica\"><\/span>Why you should not go to Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Jamaica also has a bad reputation when it comes to crime, however. There are gangs trafficking drugs across the country, and \u2013 especially in certain parts of its cities \u2013 violence and gun crime are rife. Tourists aren&#39;t exempt: petty theft and robberies aren&#39;t rare.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-many-days-do-u-need-in-jamaica\"><\/span>How many days do u need in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ten days is a good length for a trip to Jamaica and provides enough time to relax on the beach while also venturing beyond the sun and sand for a mix of adventure and culture.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-you-leave-resort-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Can you leave resort in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Best Resorts in Jamaica during the Covid-19 Pandemic Tourists are allowed to leave their accommodation to go to any tourist attraction that has been certified as a COVID-19 Resilient licensed attraction by the Jamaica Tourist Board and is located within the \u201cresilient corridor.\u201dJul 15, 2021<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-it-ok-to-drink-tap-water-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Is it OK to drink tap water in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Mostly, tap water in Jamaica is safe to drink, but in more remote areas you may want to avoid drinking water straight out of the tap, unless it has been boiled, filtered or otherwise treated.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-money-should-i-take-to-jamaica\"><\/span>How much money should I take to Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You should plan to spend around J$15,989 ($106) per day on your vacation in Jamaica, which is the average daily price based on the expenses of other visitors. Past travelers have spent, on average, J$3,038 ($20) on meals for one day and J$1,673 ($11) on local transportation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-is-a-coke-in-jamaica\"><\/span>How much is a Coke in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Prices in restaurants in Jamaica.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-is-500-us-in-jamaica\"><\/span>How much is $500 US in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>76290.00000<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-is-a-typical-meal-in-jamaica\"><\/span>How much is a typical meal in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cost of Living in Jamaica<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-much-cash-can-i-bring-to-jamaica\"><\/span>How much cash can I bring to Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are no restrictions on the import or export of local or foreign currency.

As a general rule, expect to tip around 10&#37; of the bill. If you get exceptionally good service, say thank you with a tip closer to 15-20&#37;.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-2-a-good-tip-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Is $2 a good tip in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Locals don&#39;t tip in Jamaica, but it is common in touristy areas. If you do decide to tip in Jamaica, tip bellhops $1-2 per bag. If you require the concierge&#39;s services, tip him according to the value of your request. For example, if he gets you seats at a great restaurant $20-25 would be a great tip.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-5-dollars-a-good-tip-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Is 5 dollars a good tip in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Shuttle bus users in most cases should also tip the driver from $1(USD) to $5(USD) per person based on the length of trip from the airport to the hotel. This works out to about 10 percent to 15 percent of the fare based on the distance from the airport to the hotel.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-i-use-my-cell-phone-in-jamaica\"><\/span>Can I use my cell phone in Jamaica?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can!
