Living Decadently and Dangerously in Jamaica

No, of course I haven't abandoned you, dear Style Spy readers, but I am in the midst of an adventurous getaway in Negril, Jamaica. 

Am holed up in the glorious Rockhouse Hotel with my own thatched-roof hut atop ancient volcanic rock cliffs overlooking the Caribbean...

...with front row seats for brilliant sunsets.

The hotel, spa (one of the best I've visited -- ask for Joy OR Joyce) and incredible views have been decadent (shopping secrets coming later), while jumping off said cliffs, scuba diving and snorkeling with stone fish (the most venomous of all species), moray eels and barracudas has provided the requisite danger necessary for any exciting escape.

 

Check back for insider tips on the best local haunts, sailboat charters, local design talent and more.

Kisses, postcards, wish you were here..

PS
just got an email alert from a PR company which jolted me back to reality...and made chuckle.  I was notified that a particular pregnant celeb chose to wear A Pea In the Pod maternity wear to a recent Scientology Gala.

the rockhouse-rocks.

yes, you may not believe that the photos on the website are actually what you will find when you pull up--it seems too close to a narrow busy road to really be possible--but it is exactly picture perfect.
more than just being a photographers dream-spectacular sunsets every night, turquoise lagoon water set off by volcanic/coral cliffs, tropical thatched roof living and dining areas-the staff is super nice and on point and whole atmosphere is beyond relaxing.
the biggest drawback, since something this perfect has to have something, is simply that the promise of direct flights from New York is more of a suggestion. So if you can handle the discombobulation of not knowing when you will arrive and when you will return then book NOW.

totally worth it.

Yes, Michael -- I enjoyed the irony of the stonefish as well.

Or I guess it would be stoned fish, mon.
