Opened in February 2002, Margaritaville Ocho Rios was formally christened by Jimmy himself when he and his band staged a beachside concert in front of an audience of loyal parrotheads, lucky tourists and local Jamaicans. At 12,000 square feet and seating 450 people, the Ochi location is biggest 'Ville ever, located in prime position on the beach at the Island Village shopping and entertainment complex, just steps away from the cruise ship pier.

So much fun, so little time!

In keeping with our concept, the 'Ville Ochi is a high-energy bar & grill, providing all-day family fun and nighttime entertainment. Features include a rooftop whirlpool tub, a 2-story 100 foot long waterslide that soars above the main bar and plunges into the freshwater pool below and 3 bars, including a swim-up pool bar. And, of course, our Margaritaville Trading Post gift shop offers exclusive Jimmy Buffett memorabilia and gifts for the folks back home.

Throughout the restaurant the décor is "rustic Caribbean", using sun-bleached colours and casual furniture. Downstairs, the ambience is beachy and relaxed by day, urban and "nightclub-y" by night. Mosaic tile and wrought iron accents on the upper level lend an intimate and sophisticated Afro-Cuban feel to our Havana Day Dreamin' bar and lounge.

The Ville in Ochi has proven to be a big hit with locals, cruise ship passengers and stop-over visitors. So stop by soon and see what all the excitement's about. We’ve got a world-famous tropical margarita and Cheeseburger in Paradise waiting just for you!
