Let's see if you movie buffs out there can match the films on the list below to the beautiful Jamaican locale they featured. Answers are at the bottom of the post.

Price Dates

Round Hill Hotel and Villas

a.) The rugged caves of the West End Cliffs in Negril are great for snorkeling — and for filming movies.

b.) Round Hill Hotel & Villas is a popular haven for movie stars even when movies aren’t being filmed.

c.) Frenchman’s Cove in Port Antonio is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

d.) The Blue Lagoon in Port Antonio used to be known as The Blue Hole. One guess why they changed the name.

Answer Key:

1. d: Yes, you guessed it — the sexually-charged coming of age film The Blue Lagoon, which drew criticism from Christian groups for featuring nude scenes of a 14-year-old Brooke Shields, shot scenes at The Blue Lagoon in sleepy Port Antonio, Jamaica.

2. b: Stella Got her Groove back at Round Hill Hotels & Villas with the 20-year-old Winston Shakespeare, played by Taye Diggs.

3. a : Both 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Dr. No filmed scenes at the ruggedly beautiful West End Cliffs in Negril.

4. c. We wouldn’t mind getting cast away at the beautiful, uncrowded Frenchman’s Cove, but the boys in Lord of the Flies didn’t handle it too well.
