Montego Bay Airport - Blue Waters: Private Transfer, Stop Option

Summary

Private transfer from Montego Bay airport with a local driver

You’ll be met at Montego Bay airport by a local driver who’ll help with your bags and get you straight onto an air-conditioned ride toward Blue Waters or Coral Springs. There’s time for a quick stop if you need snacks or supplies along the way. With friendly conversation and real Jamaican scenery rolling by, it feels like your trip begins before you even reach your hotel.

What’s the experience like?

We’d barely landed in Montego Bay when our driver, Andre, found us outside arrivals — he was holding a little sign with my name (spelled right, which felt like a good omen). The air was thick and warm, that sweet mix of salt and diesel you only get near the Caribbean coast. He helped with our bags and cracked a joke about the “Jamaican traffic jam” (a goat on the road, apparently). I didn’t expect to laugh so soon after a red-eye flight.

The drive out toward Blue Waters took about 45 minutes, but it didn’t drag. Andre pointed out where the sea changed color — “that’s where the reef starts,” he said — and slowed down once so we could grab cold Ting at a roadside shop. I’m not sure if that’s standard for every private transfer from Montego Bay airport to Blue Waters or just because we looked thirsty. Either way, it hit the spot. The van was cool inside, which honestly saved me; I’m not built for humidity.

Somewhere past Coral Springs, we passed a group of kids waving at cars. Andre honked back — everyone seemed to know him. There was reggae on low in the background and I caught myself zoning out watching palm trees flicker by. It’s funny how quickly you start to feel like you’re somewhere real, not just shuttling between airports and hotels. If you need to stop for snacks or anything else along the way, just ask — Andre said it’s no problem at all.

I still remember that first view of the water as we pulled up to the hotel gates. Not dramatic or anything, just… honest blue under heavy clouds. That’s when it hit me: vacation had actually started.
