Introducing The Tryall Club
June 4, 2025 by Hidden Doorways
The Tryall Golf & Beach Club stretches across 2,200 acres of Jamaica’s stunning coastline, where rolling hills meet the turquoise Caribbean Sea. This spacious sanctuary features over 70 distinctive private villas, each with its own unique character. It’s this private, expansive, and naturally Jamaican approach to paradise that has drawn travelers back to The Tryall Club’s shores year after year, creating a community centered on warm hospitality and the effortless joy of life by the sea.
The estate is rich with history – its aqueducts, waterwheel, and 18th-century ruins now woven seamlessly into the landscape. The 1834 Great House stands as the property’s social heart, where afternoon tea unfolds daily on the veranda, a delightful tradition from the 1930s when The Tryall Club was a social hub for western Jamaica. Beneath ceiling fans that stir the perfumed tropical air, guests gather to nibble on freshly baked pastries while gazing across sun-dappled lawns to the glittering sea. As twilight descends, the Great House Bar becomes the setting for impromptu gatherings around the grand piano, where the island’s rhythms carry into the evening.
Each villa offers a distinct interpretation of Caribbean living, from intimate hillside hideaways to sprawling beachfront estates, yet all share the signature Tryall Club experience of impeccable personal service. The villas themselves are architectural expressions of their owners’ visions, thoughtfully spaced to provide both ample privacy and spectacular vistas.
Villas are categorized as Classic, Deluxe, or Luxury, reflecting different levels of design, finish, and architectural detail. Classic villas offer coordinated interiors and comfortable amenities, often with vintage charm and traditional character. Deluxe villas feature updated styling and higher-grade materials, with scenic views and curated décor. Luxury villas represent the pinnacle of comfort and craftsmanship, with expansive layouts, chef’s kitchens, premium finishes, and elevated design throughout.
Each villa comes with a dedicated staff including a private chef, butler, housekeeper, laundress, and gardener, ensuring a truly personalized experience. Mornings begin with freshly prepared breakfast on your private terrace, while lunch and dinner five days a week showcase the creativity of your personal chef using locally sourced Caribbean ingredients. For the remaining two evenings, guests are encouraged to explore the property’s exceptional dining venues.
The villas themselves are designed to embrace Jamaica’s ideal climate, with open-air living spaces that blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Many feature private swimming pools, expansive terraces, and tropical gardens that enhance the sense of place. Whether positioned along the shoreline with direct beach access, perched on hillsides with panoramic vistas, or nestled among the fairways of the golf course, each residence offers privacy while remaining just moments from the club’s world-class amenities.
Each estate villa includes complimentary golf carts, allowing guests to navigate the expansive property with ease while enjoying the scenic beauty of the surroundings.
Days at The Tryall Club unfold with endless possibilities, centered around the club’s celebrated amenities. The 18-hole championship golf course designed by Ralph Plummer weaves through the estate and along the coastline, featuring the remarkable seventh hole where players navigate through a centuries-old stone aqueduct. Tennis enthusiasts enjoy nine professional courts set on a breezy hilltop with spectacular views, while water lovers explore the mile-long private beach and its offshore reef or unwind at the Beach Club with its zero-entry heated infinity pool. Beyond the property, adventures await, including everything from bamboo rafting on the Martha Brae River and deep-sea fishing excursions to explorations of hidden waterfalls and historic plantations.
The resort’s culinary scene celebrates Jamaica’s vibrant flavors with imagination and flair. At Ooshan Bar & Restaurant, contemporary island cuisine is served against a backdrop of spectacular sunset views, while the Beach Bar & Grill offers casual delights including wood-fired pizzas, authentic jerk specialties, and homemade ice cream crafted from over fifteen varieties of fruit trees grown on the property. For memorable occasions, private dining experiences transform spectacular settings into unforgettable evenings, whether it’s torch-lit beach dinners to magical evenings in the club’s organic garden, where many of the ingredients are harvested just hours before service.
At the Livity Spa, treatments inspired by Jamaica’s natural healing traditions provide moments of deep relaxation, with skilled therapists using local botanicals and ancient techniques to rejuvenate both body and mind. Guests also have access to a fully equipped fitness center and thousands of acres of open space for walking, jogging, or simply enjoying the breathtaking scenery.
