Good Option, Great People, Short stay
We only stayed one night as we waited for more of our party to come in and go to a resort. Were very happy with the pick up service. The driver even took us to the market for some groceries. It was a great way to see culture off of a resort. Couple things that may have been nice, a bottle or two of water could be provided, as we can't drink the local water. Some throw blankets, the blankets provided were more like "sheets." Some things in the kitchen were missing, knife to cut vegetable, wash rag, hand towels. The pictures are a bit out dated. The back yard did not have the patio chairs and relaxing clean area as shown in the pictures. The bedding was not the same, it was just white sheets (duvet with no insert). This was a nice place, and a good value, a couple items would have just made it that much better.

The best 50th birthday celebration
We had an incredible time from start to finish. Mr. Lloyd was very welcoming and attentive to all of our needs from the time we booked the villa. We went to Jamaica to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday. I had asked to have decorations to surprise her when we arrived. That was done. We arrived prior to the check-in time.. Mr. Lloyd allowed us to drop our luggage(which he personally lugged up the stairs ) off at the villa, and begin our Jamaican vacation. He drove us to a popular spot for take out. Then, the next day we met Mr. Claude the driver. He took to every place we wanted to go. He gave us so much information about his beautiful country and the wonderful people who live there. Mr. Claude was polite, funny, and paid close attention to our every need. He even picked up a surprise birthday cake, and brought it to the house for us. There is no one better to navigate the tricky streets of Montego Bay. He was also our photographer so that we could capture so many of our precious moments without having to do selfies. Everyone affiliated with this property went above and beyond to make sure for six days Jamaica felt like it was our home. I can't thank you all enough. We will definitely be back. And we will not be staying anywhere else. I just realized I didn't even mention the beautiful property. There were amazing fruit trees on the grounds. The house has giant ceilings, and the lighting is amazing to take beautiful pictures. You can see breathtaking mountains scenes from the porch. I don't want to forget one detail.

We really enjoyed our stay
The house was clean and inviting. Loved the large open space of the living room, dining room and kitchen combo. It provided a nice relaxing gathering space for our family of 7. The outdoor space with a large veranda in the front and patio in the back was also comfortable. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would book it again.

I was there on a short business trip. The location is great. not too far away from the Hip Street, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet and embrace the view of the lovely landscaped yard,..and the beautiful view from the porch. The iwner, Mr Simpson was an excellent host. The property is very well secured..I felt safe being there. I will definitely go back!

Awesome assistance ...
We just arrived from Paradise Palms Villa in Montego Bay where we stayed 8 days from July 12th to 20th. Very nice and clean house with great view from the balcony where you can watch spectacular sunsets … This villa is located only few minutes from the airport (but very quiet) and many restaurants … I would like to mention the amazing assistance that we received from Mr. Claude (Property Manager) and Teresa (Housekeeper) … These people are very dedicated to make your stay comfortable and are good ambassadors of the Jamaican culture. I recommend this property without hesitation … Richard Fournier (Canada)

Great place to stay
Overall we were very pleased with the property. The only hang up was the advertisement said 5 bedrooms but the housekeeper told us there was only 4 otherwise I would give it a 5 Star rating. The house was very clean. The air was properly working as this was one of my concerns from reading a previous review. The staff (Claud and Patricia) were very helpful and addressed any concerns we may have had. We felt very secure and safe due to the security measures the owner has taken to secure his property. This was a girls trip and there were 5 of us. We had plenty of space and because of the number of restrooms available, there was no problem there either. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay. We would definitely use this property again, and if there were 5 bedrooms then my rating would be a 5. We had nothing to complain about. Awesome place!!!!

Perfect, quiet location.
We enjoyed our stay at the villa. It was in a quiet neighborhood that was walking distance from small markets and we were able t catch taxis just by walking down the street. We were under the impression that the whole villa had A/C but only some of the rooms did. Overall, the experience was great and we would stay again.

Very Relaxing Stay
The pictures in the home profile represent the home nicely. The house is roomy, clean, and comfortable. Whenever there was a question or issue, the owner was quick to respond. There was an issue with no hot water in the shower most of my stay. It's my understanding, the hot water is solar heated and there was rain everyday but one during my week stay. So my showers were quick and brief. For future guests, I would suggest bringing your own wash clothes and hand towels. I brought my own knowing that many places I stay outside of the states, do not have wash clothes. Bath towels were provided, but no hand towels or wash clothes. Two rolls of toilet paper were provided, and no paper towels. Soap and shampoo was not provided. So I just picked up paper towels, soap, shampoo and additional toilet paper when I bought groceries at the Mega Mart. Otherwise, the home was well stocked and supplied. The home is not in walking distance of tourist areas, restaurants, or shopping. I rented a vehicle, but there is a driver available for a fee. I enjoyed staying away from the busyness. The home has nice porches, living room, dining room, reading room, kitchen and laundry room with a washer (no dryer). If my travels ever brought be back to Montego Bay, I would consider staying here again. The owners were great.

Will not stay here again. Save you money
We have stsyed at this property before four years ago. The house is large and lovely. However this stay was different. They have tried to add rooms so the bathroom in the second bedroom has no window and is small. The cutains in the kitchen are the same dirty ones from 4 years. The house is filthy a d in disrepair. The handles fell off the roof is leaking the kitchen is so dirty that you can not eat anything until we had it cleaned thouroughly. The bedding had to be washed before we could sleep on it. The pictures shown on the web sites do not reflect the stste of this place. Garden overgrown and full of wasted fruit. Manager Mr Murdock does nothing about the complaints 1 bathroom locked and stayed locked for 2 days until we left. The lady next door has keys to the safe and property not very safe eould not recommend you stay here unless you dont mind dirt. Solar energy dies not work elther goes on and off so often. No clean towels no cleaning products dirty mop brush no dish cloth no tea towels no. 1 bathtowel 1 bathmat dirty in each bathroom. Save your money go elsewhere.
