In a world dominated by notifications, fast-paced itineraries, and the pressure to always stay connected, a new kind of luxury is emerging in travel: JOMO – the Joy of Missing Out.

Rather than over-scheduled itineraries or rushing through crowds, today’s mindful traveller is intentionally seeking out destinations that offer stillness, seclusion, and restorative experiences.

Whether it's unwinding in a private overwater villa in the Maldives, soaking up the laid-back rhythm of island life in Jamaica, or discovering the tranquil charm of Greece’s villages, these spots are perfect for digital detoxing, slow travel, and meaningful connection with nature, local culture, and oneself.

In Jamaica, less is more!
Located in the heart of Treasure Beach, Jakes Hotel in Jamaica truly embodies the Joy Of Missing Out (JOMO).

This family-run hotel in the undiscovered South Coast, invites guests to slow down and embrace a leisurely pace, focusing on wellness, nature, self-reflection, and meaningful interactions with local culture.

Each vibrant villa and uniquely designed suite reflect the island’s colourful, artistic spirit, while the hotel’s strong commitment to sustainability shines through its eco-friendly practices and collaborations with local farmers and artisans.

Guests are offered genuine opportunities to connect with the community, and might encounter charismatic locals like Floyd the fisherman, owner of the iconic Pelican Bar, a modest yet popular floating bar situated in the middle of the sea along the South Coast.

With no TVs and limited Wi-Fi, guests are encouraged to completely disconnect from digital distractions and enjoy the natural beauty of their surroundings.
