Combine World Class Cricket with Unbridled Luxury in Jamaica

Cricket lovers have a fantastic excuse to jet out to the tropical island of Jamaica next year as the country is playing host to the first test match against the West Indies at Sabina Park, Kingston in February 2009.

Sabina Park was recently renovated for the 2007 World Cup and was transformed from a 15,000 to 20,000 capacity.

The ground is brilliantly situated with the famous Blue Mountains, home of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, forming the backdrop to the stadium.

You don’t have to go to a test match to see cricket in the Caribbean. In fact, you’ll often see locals playing an impromptu match in the street or on the beach and just being in the region when the test is in the Caribbean can bring the whole island alive!

One of the best places to stay in Jamaica is the award winning swept away. The luxury all-inclusive Jamaican resorts offer guests fantastic accommodation on some of the best beaches in Jamaica as well as a whole range of complimentary sports and activities, you really will be in for an action packed holiday!
