\nIf you want a break from the snow and extreme winter garb and would rather spend this special season in a warm tropical paradise with the family, the perfect choice for you would be Jamaica.<\/p>\n
Jamaica possesses some of the best beaches, a variety of accommodation options as well as plenty of fun and exciting things to do with the family.<\/p>\n
I will provide you with an insider\u2019s guide to Christmas in Jamaica in 2017.<\/p>\n
To truly immerse yourself in the exciting Jamaican culture and thoroughly enjoy the festivities of the season, it is recommended that you stay in a Jamaican Villa and not an all-inclusive hotel.<\/p>\n
This will give you the freedom to explore and partake in the local happenings with your family.

\nThis event happens on Christmas Eve and is a celebratory event where most Jamaicans, young and old are on the streets reveling, shopping or just enjoying the night out; there is music everywhere, shops are opened all night, and there are stalls all over selling local food and wares.<\/p>\n
You will get some of the best Jerk chicken from the stall vendors on Grand Market night in Jamaica!<\/p>\n
You will also get the unique opportunity to mingle with regular Jamaicans in an authentic setting, which you probably not have gotten if staying in an all-inclusive hotel.<\/p>\n
This is one of the reasons why we recommend a Jamaica Vacation rental or Jamaican Villa if you are coming to the Island for Christmas 2017.

\nAnother element of Christmas in Jamaica is the food; no Jamaican Christmas is complete without a slice of traditional Jamaican Christmas pudding, roasted chicken, gungo peas and rice and the Christmas drink sorrel.<\/p>\n
The Christmas pudding is infused with fruits that have been soaked in rum for weeks, sometimes months before being used; this gives the Christmas pudding a rum flavor that is uniquely Jamaican.<\/p>\n
Gungo peas and sorrel are seasonal crops that are grown specifically for the Christmas season on the Island and are incredibly tasty options.<\/p>\n
If you are visiting Jamaica for Christmas in 2017 and staying at a Jamaican Villa, your local chef\/cook will prepare a traditional Christmas dinner for you.<\/p>\n
Your family will truly enjoy the authentic dining experience in the private, homely setting of your Villa that you will not be afforded if staying in a larger hotel.<\/p>\n
