The Best Poolside Lunches in the Caribbean

Just say no to Caesar salad! Your first rosé of the day deserves better. At these beach resorts, the midday meal is the amenity to count on.

Relaxing by one of GoldenEye’s pools—there are two fresh-water ones and a small salt-water one—you’ll enjoy lunch menus that reflect the traditional cooking of Jamaica. There’s aromatic jerk chicken, vegetable curries, and salads made with greens from owner Chris Blackwell’s Pantrepant farm. Blackwell also distills his own Jamaican dark rum, which adds a kick to the decadent baba au rhum cake.
