Holiday Haven Resort

Getting to the Conference: Travel & Directions

We are thrilled to welcome you to this year’s conference at the Holiday Haven Resort and Banquet Hall in Runaway Bay, St. Ann. Located right along Jamaica’s scenic northern corridor, the venue is highly accessible from all major points across the island.

To help you plan your journey, we have outlined the most direct routes, transport suggestions, and travel tips below.

🗺️ Driving Routes & Directions

From Montego Bay & The West (approx. 1 hour 15 mins)

• The Route: Take the Northern Coastal Highway heading east toward St. Ann.

• Directions: You will pass through Falmouth and Discovery Bay. As you enter Runaway Bay, look out for the resort located conveniently right off the main road on Old Road/Main Street. It’s a smooth, straightforward coastal drive with beautiful ocean views.

From Kingston & The South East (approx. 1 hour 25 mins)

• The Route: Take Washington Boulevard out of Kingston onto the Mandela Highway, then jump onto the Hwy 2000 (T3) North-South Toll Road.

• Directions: Enjoy the scenic, fast-paced highway drive through the hills. Take the exit toward Ocho Rios and merge onto the A1 highway heading west toward Runaway Bay. Drive past Mammee Bay and St. Ann's Bay. The venue will be on your left just as you pass Flavors beach as you navigate into the heart of Runaway Bay. 

From South Central Jamaica via Brown’s Town (approx. 25 mins from Brown's Town)

• The Route: Travelers coming from southern or central parishes (like Manchester or St. Elizabeth) can route through Brown’s Town to cut directly down to the north coast.

• Directions: From Brown's Town, take the main road heading north straight down into Runaway Bay. This is a shorter, downhill transit that links you directly to the coastal highway right near the venue.
