Whitehouse, Jamaica

Whitehouse, Jamaica

Whitehouse is a small town with a beach on the coast in the south east corner of Westmoreland Parish, Jamaica.

It is destined to become a major tourist destination with the opening in 2006 of a Sandals Hotel about 4 km to west of the town centre. There are plans to build further large hotels. There are many fine villas between Whitehouse and the Sandals Resort. Hummingbird Villa is a typical example on the Tropical Sunshine Properties Estate which overlooks the new Sandals resort. A visit to the fish market in Whitehouse is a must and it is best to be there early in the morning as the fishing boats arrive from their night time fishing.Take one of the roads north from Whitehouse up into the hills and experience the panoramic views of Parkers Bay.
