About this property
Cozy Cottage In Rural Jamaica. Rich In Sunshine, Colour, Flavour, And Warmth.
There’s always a refreshing breeze blowing off the caribbean sea. Here is a mixed tropical orchid on a hilltop down a road with no name just off the beaten track of jamaica. This is a rural community in the hills where you will experience genuine jamaican culture far from the hustle and hassle of the popular tourist zones. The people are friendly and sincere. Your host, gary, is a local farmer with an intimate knowledge of the immediate area as well as the many spectacular attractions around the island. He is also very adept at creating delicious meals from locally produced ingredients. Clean air, fresh water, tropical breeze, ideal climate, a cornucopia of tropical fruits and veggies, a spectacular view east of the northeast coastline, mountains and sea, pomegranate, sugar cane, banana, peace of mind…
The house is mostly wood with a concrete foundation with two bedrooms, a kitchen and bathroom. There is some privacy as the house is at the back of the property and plenty of shade from the enormous mango, almond, lime, plum, niesberry, jamaican apple and avocado trees. It is roughly an hour from kingston, 45 minutes from ocho rios or three hours from montego bay. The closest beach, long beach, is secluded and serene. In this region there are also spectacular waterfalls that you must hike through the jungle with a guide to find. At dusk the crickets and frogs begin their chorus and by day nightingales and doves carry the ambient tune. There is not really any dangerous wildlife here – just donkeys, goats, mongoose…this is the real jamaica. Enjoy fresh non-industrial food. This is jamaica unaltered and unplugged. Rich in sunshine, colour, flavour, and warmth.

About the host
Hosted by Tony Morrison

I was born and raised in Canada. My dad had left Jamaica and made a new life in Canada. As a young adult I was fascinated with the idea of traveling. Many people were welcoming and kind to me over the years in many different places. That experience has been powerfully enriching to me. As getting to know Nutsfield St. Mary's and the people there has been such a wonderful experience for me I am drawn to the idea of helping others get to know this location and it's inhabitants. This is truly an extraordinary unnoticed corner of Jamaica, close to many natural wonders in the perfect climate.
