Travel & Stay
Golden Eye Resort
Once the Jamaica home of renowned author Ian Fleming, GoldenEye was developed by Island Records founder Chris Blackwell and opened as a resort in 2011. Since then, the lush, 52-acre property has appeared in countless lifestyle magazines. Distinctive property features include private beaches, secret coves, a seawater lagoon, and The Fleming Villa (where all 14 James Bond books were written). There are two restaurants (The Gazebo and Bizot Bar), a unique FieldSpa, and accommodations that include one- and two-bedroom Beach and Lagoon Villas, Lagoon Cottages, and an oceanfront villa. In February 2016, Blackwell expanded his vision for GoldenEye by adding 26 Beach Huts, a seaside bar and rooftop terrace, a pool area, a snorkeling cove, and bay-side beach, a grill shack, and a drink stand. GoldenEye is located 20 minutes east of Ocho Rios. It’s 90 minutes by car from Montego Bay Airport and an eight- minute drive from Ian Fleming International.
