Relaxing [and Wild!] Clothing Optional Resorts in Jamaica
If you’re wondering if Jamaica has nude beaches, you’ll be pleased to discover that clothing-optional establishments are alive and well on this beautiful island.
Whether you’re planning to visit Negril, Ocho Rios, Runaway Bay, or another picturesque area of the island, you’re likely to find a clothing-optional resort you love. The following is a list of some of the best adults-only resorts in Jamaica and what they have to offer.
A Quick Note about Clothing Optional Resorts in Jamaica
Keep in mind that some of these resorts offer topless and clothing-optional AREAS, the entire place isn’t clothing-optional.
The ONLY true clothing-optional resorts in Jamaica we found are Hedonism II and Grand Lido.
However, if you’re looking for a clothed vacation with a clothing optional beach, then some of these resorts in Jamaica are for you!
Hedonism II
Among all the clothing-optional resorts in Jamaica, the Hedonism II, located in Negril, is probably the most famous. Situated on the island’s renowned Seven Mile Beach, this all-inclusive resort celebrates the nudist lifestyle. The establishment jokingly divides the resort’s pool and beach areas into “nude” and “prude.”
The beach and pool on the nude side are not clothing optional. Patrons must go nude. However, if your preferences run toward going topless or being fully clothed, the other side offers beautiful beaches and pools where clothing is allowed. Hedonism II’s remote, peaceful location makes it perfect for couples who enjoy nude sunbathing.
An adults-only resort, guests are encouraged to embrace their wild side and enjoy a broad range of entertainment and activities while visiting.
Rooms are posh and luxurious, and amenities naturally include all the traditional Caribbean sea water sports, as well as a spa, swim-up bar, fitness center, bars, restaurants, and exceptional nightlife.
Grand Lido Negril
Grand Lido Negril Au Naturel is a nude resort that is home to an impressive number of facilities that keep it in high demand year-round. Unlike some clothing optional resorts in Jamaica, the Grand Lido is a resort at which nudity is required. Whether you are on your balcony, in the pool, sunbathing, swimming, or accessing services, clothing should not be worn.
This resort offers exceptional bar service and butler service, and as an added bonus, amenity and pool access to a nearby sister property is granted to guests upon request. All 26 suites at the resort have views of private bay alcoves.
Grand Lido is an excellent choice for anyone searching for an all-inclusive nude resort in Jamaica.
Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa
Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa is located in Lucea, Jamaica, and is fringed by serene waters and pristine white sand. It is a family-friendly resort; however, there are adult-only swimming pools on-site, as well as a clothing-optional beach. There is another small adults-only pool where going topless is optional.
You can also take it all off at a small clothing-optional beach on the Lady Hamilton side of the resort.
The resort itself is a blend of colonial and modern style architecture, and elegantly appointed units feature hydromassage bathtubs, private balconies, hammocks, and large terraces. Popular activities at this resort include scuba diving, snorkeling, paddle boating, kayaking, and windsurfing.
Renowned for its sports center, this resort offers archery, a fitness center, three tennis courts, basketball and volleyball courts, and a soccer field.
The spa offers a vast array of luxurious services and there is also a beauty salon located on the property. Ten dining options offer a broad range of fare, and 17 bars also pepper the resort. Live entertainment is continuous at the resort’s nightclubs, and dancing till dawn is a popular activity.
Grand Bahia Principe Runaway Bay
The Grand Bahia Principe Resort is situated in Runaway Bay and perhaps its most notable feature is its large, lagoon-style pool that boasts its own man-made bay. This all inclusive resort is located in a convenient, yet private location, and offers one clothing-optional beach.
It’s not an adults-only resort, rather, it has a separate area for children near the lagoon-style pool. It offers 24 hour reception service, free Wi-Fi, an amphitheater, a kids’ club, and diving lessons upon request.
All units at the Grand Bahia Principe are suites featuring comfortable, pillow top beds. There are also three outdoor pools with views of the sea, a full service spa, a fitness center, 11 bars, six restaurants, a disco, and a newly constructed waterpark.
Sandals Royal Caribbean Negril
Sandals resorts are famous adults only, all inclusive resorts in the Caribbean, but many people ask themselves this question: does that mean nudity is allowed at Sandals? It’s important not to confuse the phrase “adults only” with “nudist resort,” but it’s true that there is a Sandals resort where there’s ONE SECTION where clothing is optional.
A somewhat secret nude beach is nestled into the property of the Sandals Royal Caribbean in Negril and it has the distinction of being the only Sandals resort to allow patrons to shed their clothing. This is largely because most of their other resorts are in areas where public nudity is prohibited.
However, this exotic couples playground in Negril is a fantastic choice for Caribbean vacationers searching for a clothing-optional beach. On the main beach, you’re more likely to encounter topless guests, while a bit further south, full nudity is almost certain.
This resort in Jamaica offers five-star butler service, a hot tub, 24 hour concierge, swim up suites with epic views, a swim up bar, state-of-the-art gym, and seven world-class restaurants. Guests can indulge in a broad range of sports and beach activities during the day, and nightly entertainment is provided.
Couples Negril Resort
Situated on 18 tropical acres and edging Jamaica’s white sand beach, ocean bliss awaits patrons of the all inclusive Couples Negril Resort. This adults-only haven is ideal for a honeymoon or romantic getaway.
It’s home to a designated nude sunbathing area on its private beach, where you will also find four open-air hot tubs and two outdoor pools. Spend the day ditching tan lines at the nude beach, or enjoying activities such as water skiing, scuba diving, windsurfing, kayaking, snorkeling, and Hobie Cat sailing.
Modern guest rooms are tastefully decorated and come equipped with fully stocked minibars. Each unit features hammocks on its terrace and impressive views of the sea.
Enjoy using the room’s rainfall showers or indulge in a bath in its jetted tub. Patrons have their choice of six gourmet restaurants, an equal number of bars, and top-notch services await at the resort’s award-winning spa.
Couples San Souci Ocho Rios
The Couples Sans Souci Resort in Ocho Rios is a top choice among many Caribbean vacationers because of the way it approaches clothing-optional environments. For instance, at the resort’s primary swimming pool and hot tubs, guests are not allowed to go nude or topless.
However, the resort is also home to an Au Naturel beach where these rules are essentially reversed: no clothing permitted in these sections. You’ll find the beach at the eastern end of the resort, and it features its own swimming pool, a swim up bar, and bocce ball and volleyball courts.
Somewhat like a secluded cove, the beach is entirely separate from the rest of the resort, and isn’t visible from any guest units.
This all-inclusive resort features all the water activities you could imagine, but land activities, such as golf, tennis, and horseback riding are also available, as well as access to the resort’s award-winning spa and fitness center.
Couples Swept Away Negril
Situated on 19 lush Negril shoreline acres on the famous Seven Mile Beach, Couples Swept Away is perfect for a romantic, adults-only escape. It’s not a nude beach, per se, but female guests can enjoy a topless environment, and sometimes full nudity is overlooked.
Just make sure to follow the rules and ask if you are not sure about the guidelines. Patrons also have the option of the resort’s Romance Rewards package, which gives guests access to a nearby clothing-optional beach or two at sister resorts.
Couples Swept Away boasts three outdoor pools, five Jacuzzis, tennis courts, racquetball, massage center, spa, six restaurants, six bars, dance classes, live entertainment, and a legendary swim up bar.
Club Ambiance Runaway Bay
This all-inclusive resort located in Runaway Bay, Jamaica, is renowned for its crystal clear waters and golden sands. Club Ambiance provides an idyllic adults-only escape, without breaking the bank in the process! This resort is essentially three areas in one, and they are all a bit different.
There is a traditional beach, where nudity is not allowed, a clothing-optional beach, and a special, man-made beach, designed specifically for nude sunbathing. This diversity makes it a highly popular option among various travelers. This all inclusive resort features beautiful, tropical decor, balconies with sea views, and comfortable, luxurious bedding.
The outdoor pool has a pool bar and a sun terrace, and the resort’s nightclub offers themed entertainment. Guests can make use of complimentary bicycles to explore their surroundings, and additional amenities include two restaurants, a full service spa that provides Swedish massage, and a state-of-the-art fitness center.
Couples Tower Isle, Ocho Rios
This beautiful all-inclusive resort located in stunning Ocho Rios features an outstanding tropical mountain backdrop. Patrons have access to their own private island when visiting Couples Tower Isle, and no one is ever disappointed.
Always ranking among the top Jamaican couples resorts, this establishment has a few things that set it apart from other clothing-optional resorts in Jamaica. For example, the private island is actually not clothing optional, but rather a distinct, au naturel beach where everyone goes nude.
A small boat takes patrons out to this island, where it becomes a nude beach during the day.
The main resort is also home to exceptional amenities, including furnished balconies with garden or sea views, fully stocked bars, three outdoor pools, four tennis courts, an 18-hole golf course, and three Jacuzzis.
A gym and full-service spa are also located on the property. This all-inclusive resort also has six restaurants, and live music can be heard nightly at one of the property’s five bars.
