In Case of a Hurricane
In Case of a Hurricane
If Jamaica's North Coast is under a hurricane watch or warning which closes the Montego Bay airport and prevents your arrival, we will offer you a rain check which you may use for the same villa any time in the next 12 months. (If you choose High Season dates, you may simply pay the difference.)
If a hurricane affects Jamaica while you're already there, closing the Montego Bay airport and preventing your departure, we will make every effort to accommodate you in the most comfortable way possible. Remaining in your own villa may be the best option.
However, if you are travelling in August, September or October -- or if you have health concerns for yourself or anyone else in your group -- we recommend travel insurance. Be advised that Villas by Linda Smith makes no claim regarding any insurer's service or coverage. Your choice of insurers is at your own discretion.
In the past 57 years, only 6 hurricanes have hit Jamaica:
1951 Charlie, August 17
1963 Flora, October 5-7
1980 Allen, August 4-7
1988 Gilbert, September 12
2004 Ivan, September 10-11
