Great location and very clean house

From start to finish this was a great property to stay. From booking the trip and checking in the host was very responsive and communicative. The directions were easy to follow and the home is very secure. The community is very well kept and that was a hige plus for my wife and myself. I know that my next trip will be here if it is available. Thank you again for making this a smooth and effortless trip

The best place

This is so far the best place I rented in Jamaica - it's close to Ocho Rios and kinda in the middle of the country so you could go anywhere you want. The house is just as described and as you see it in the pictures - very nice, convenient, equipped with everything you may need, even for cooking. Communicating with the host was easy and breezy. The gated community is safe and quiet. We definitely will book this house again for our next vacation in Jamaica if it's available.

Misleading

I stayed there with the belief that i was booking and entire house with complete privacy. Me, my wife and baby boy stayed there. I had a few guest from my bridal party stop by to go over Wedding rehearsals late, then they left to stay at our house. The owners have notes and messages all over the house like its a jail. Either rnet the whole hose or not, stop scamming people for more money.

Disappointing Experience with Hidden Charges and Privacy Concerns

My family and I recently stayed at this home for a mini vacation, and unfortunately, it didn’t meet our expectations. The check-in process was straightforward, but things quickly became frustrating. For one, I was required to send over a lot of personal information in advance, which felt unnecessary. On top of that, I received constant messages asking about my whereabouts, which was intrusive.One of the main reasons we booked this property was because of the community pool, but it was out of service during our stay. This was a huge letdown, as it was a key feature of the property that we were looking forward to.The biggest issue came after check-out when I was notified about an additional charge. The host claimed there was an extra child who stayed over, but this was both surprising and confusing, especially since our guests had come and gone without any issue. To make matters worse, I noticed in some of our photos that there were cameras present, which the host had never mentioned. It left me wondering if there were cameras inside the house as well. The lack of transparency about surveillance raised serious concerns about the privacy of my family during our stay.Overall, while the home itself was fine, the constant communication, hidden charges, and privacy issues overshadowed what should have been a relaxing family vacation. I would not recommend this place unless you're okay with unexpected fees and a lack of privacy.

Beautiful home but

I would give this place 5 stars but it has a few draw backs. There is no AC in the living area. We could not sit there. We had to stay in the room with AC because the heat was unbearable. The bed is a coil spring mattress. It may that my ass is literally spoiled to pillowtops and memory foam mattressess now,but that's an up grade along with the AC in the living room, that is needed. Other than those 2 issues,absolutely the perfect place to rent...

What makes this property unique

This serene nature inspired get away will fast become your new home, away from home. It will leave you wondering where has the vacation time gone.

Come home to your home away from home.
