The site is approximately 10 miles west of the resort town of Ocho Rios and 50 miles east of the city of Montego Bay, where the international airport is located.
The master plan for the development includes two luxury beachfront hotels, a 27 hole Golf Course - a first for Jamaica; a Country Club; a modern 100 slip Marina and Marina Village offering accommodation, shopping, dining and recreational facilities; villa lots; condominium sites and a sports facility, reserved by the developers for the community's use.
In recent years the development of master planned community resorts has been an important emerging trend in the Caribbean. The Drax Hall Estate development, with its varied offering of amenities, will be Jamaica's first fully integrated, master planned, luxury resort/residential community. It is a multi-faceted project with all the facilities and services required to enhance its marketability to upscale international real estate investors and vacationers. The major objective of the development strategy is to create an upscale, luxury resort which enhances and protects the natural environment and is in harmony with the landscape, topography and the history of the estate. A Design Guidelines manual has been published by the developers which regulate architectural style, site planning and landscaping to ensure consonance with the overall theme and ambiance of the estate.
