open bar, wine with lunch and dinner,
entertainment, sports facilities, adult
activities, teen activities and a Mini

years play, stay and eat for free while
a third adult sharing in a one bedroom
suite receives a thirty (30) percent
discount.

are no rooms at the Franklyn D. Resort,
but rather seventy six, (76) beautifully
decorated one, two and three bedroom
suites, fully self-contained with their
own kitchen, patio or terrace and in-house

The
most unique aspect of this resort is
its Vacation

to their every needs. Trained in housekeeping,
cooking and bartending, your friendly
Vacation Nanny will cook, clean, and
be a companion to children, thus enabling
parents to capture the flavour of being
in a Jamaican home while on holiday.

mini-club featuring a range of activities
for children and a program designed
for teenagers, while adults are free
to indulge in a variety of watersports
and other sporting activities offered
at the resort.
Guests
may dine in the Verandah international
restaurant, Teeto's Italian restaurant,

for them in their suites. All meals
are a pleasure for the palate as the
resort's chef offers guests a delicate
mix of Jamaican, International and Italian
fare. Fresh papaya, mangoes in season,
colourful garden salads, succulent steaks,
a variety of pasta dishes and indigenous
Jamaican food are prepared for guests.
The resort's quaint oceanview Piano
