Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Lloyd Richards
Spent many years working in Tech and enjoyed the people experience more than actual tech. I love family time, cooking and entertaining, travel, installing things around the house, sports but most of all helping others. Nothing beats family time, loving and arguing with each other over good food while at a sunny destination. Africa is the next continent to explore. Inspiring talks with teens and young adults is very fulfilling.
Why they chose this property
Serene, peaceful, relaxing, sunny, safe, secure gated community with 24/7 security. The greenery of nature, the landscaped lawn and garden, the seasonal fruit trees and especially the friendly neighbours are some of the reasons I love this community!
Outside the community, the town is lively, vibrant, safe and gives the local experience. The beach is a 10-min drive, Ocho Rios is a 15-min drive and many local attractions (Dunns River Falls, Mystic Mountain, Dolphin Cove etc.) are within a 20-30 min drive.
There's so much to do; restaurants, street food vendors, night clubs, lounges, spas and so much more is all within close proximity.
Or, you may just want to curl up on the comfy couch with a good book.
Whatever your vibe, there's something here for you!
