Travel Advice

The Wedding Website of Desai Athanaze and Kiera Rose
Our wedding falls over the Easter bank holiday weekend. This is a popular travel period, which means direct flights around those specific weekend dates may be priced a little higher. Below is some travel advice. Over the next few weeks Desai and Kiera will be able to offer their help, over calls or Whatsapp, with booking. We'll be able to provide further advice and let you know what other guests are doing. So make sure to keep us in the loop!

Flight

Virgin Atlantic

Negril is located on the western tip of Jamaica, and from Sangster International Airport (MBJ) in Montego Bay, it's approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours by car. Norman Manley International Airport (KIN) in Kingston is much further, about a 4-5 hour drive, so MBJ is definitely your best bet for convenience. Generally, the earlier you fly in the week, the cheaper the flight prices tend to be. For example, return trips via Virgin Atlantic from late March (e.g. the 29th) for an 8-day stay in Jamaica are currently starting at £850 (with 23kg luggage).

Flight

Connecting Flights

If you're looking for flight savings, consider extending your trip and exploring other locations beforehand! Flying into Jamaica from hubs like Miami, New York, Toronto, or even another Caribbean island might offer similar or even cheaper fares than direct flights solely for the wedding weekend. Please be aware that schedules for smaller US flight companies for April next year are still being released, so connecting flight information may be limited with more options becoming available closer to the date. Flight Prices vary more drastically but would likely start at £700.

Flight

Package Holidays

To keep your overall spending down, we also recommend looking into package holidays. We've seen all-inclusive options from TUI for a week's stay, inclusive of our wedding dates (April 2nd to 9th), starting from around £2,000. While all-inclusive resorts have a higher upfront cost, Jamaica can be an expensive destination for daily spending, so these packages offer a super convenient way to manage your budget once you're there.

Hotel

Royalton

Negril, Westmoreland Parish, Jamaica
 

Royalton Negril - All Inclusive (15 minutes from Pattoo): Our preferred recommendation. For a luxurious, all-inclusive experience, consider Royalton Negril.

We are also able to get better rates for those interested in larger bookings who would not be participating in package holidays.

Hotel

Hotel Riu Negril

Negril, Hanover Parish, Jamaica

This charming hotel is ideal for guests seeking a peaceful retreat with easy access to our wedding festivities. Prices start at around £252 per night

Hotel

Travellers Beach Resort

Norman Manley Boulevard, Negril, Westmoreland Parish, Jamaica
 

Travellers Beach Report - Non-all-inclusive (15 minutes from Pattoo): While all-inclusive resorts offer great convenience, for those looking for a potentially more budget-friendly option with greater flexibility, staying in a non-all-inclusive location can be a fantastic alternative. Our top recommendation for this is Travellers Beach Resort. Rooms are currently priced from around £90 per night, offering a comfortable base from which to explore Negril and enjoy the local scene at your leisure.

Travel Note

AirBnB

If you prefer more flexibility and want to keep accommodation costs down, utilising Airbnbs in Jamaica can be a great option. Aribnb's are generally more budget-friendly and you'll be able to enjoy your own private space

Travel Note

Uber

Uber has recently expanded its services to the area, including Negril. This means you can now use the Uber app to request rides, offering a convenient way to get around during our wedding celebrations.

Shuttle

To and from Wedding Venue

April 4, 2026 2:30 pm - 3:00 pm

Our wedding planner is looking into the possibility of arranging shuttles to and from the wedding venue on the 4th April (depending on guests chosen accommodation). We will update this page, when this is confirmed. For any assistance in a shuttle to or from the airport for larger groups of guest, please reach out.
