Margaritaville-Montego Bay
 
Hi all, can anyone tell me how far it is from the airport in Montego Bay to Margaritaville Montego Bay? We have a four hour layover there and would love to get to Margaritaville if it is possible. Thank you!

We passed Margaritaville on the way to the airport from Negril. I don't think you'd really have enough time to go there, have fun & get back. Why not just hit the location in the airport? We checked it out when we were waiting for our flight home & people were having fun there. It's on the upper level of the airport. Go to the Margaritaville site & check it out.

10 minutes but if there's traffic it could take longer.

There is one in the airport but it doesn't have a water slide ;)

Thank you for the info! I didn't know there was one in the airport. That is probably safer. If we have too much fun at the restaurant off-site, we just forget to get back to the airport and never leave! Gee, doesn't sound too bad for me! Thanks again for the quick reply.

They have a nice little gift shop at the one in the airport, too, for all your Jimmy Buffett t-shirts. We make it a point to have one more for the air there every time!

When we were there in May the airport had the Jamaican bobsled on display downstairs. We took pictures of it & us. Then when I got home I gathered some of our Jamaican photos together & took them to Office Depot & had a calendar made. It cost $20 & was ready the same day I took it in. They told me it would be 3-4 days. An excellent reminder of our trip.

The calendar idea sounds great! I guess we can stay right at the airport and enjoy some cheer and do a little shopping. Gives us more time to relax for the rest of the ride home. Thanks again!
