This home and experience was nothing short of amazing. The property was beautiful, extremely clean, and comfortable and the pictures do it no justice.
From the first phone call with Rochelle (owner), I knew that my group and I would enjoy our stay. She took care of us and made sure all of our needs were met. She was also very timely with her responses to anything that I asked.
We were a group of 6 women traveling together. Upon our arrival, Deana, property manager, greeted us with her warm, friendly smile and gave us a tour. She even called and texted to check on us daily to see how things were going. This made me feel very safe, as this was our first time staying at a villa internationally.
Mr. Owen, the groundsman, greeted us also upon our arrival. He carried 6 large suitcases up the stairs for us. They were not light! He is the sweetest ever! He was outside every day making sure that the property was maintained to the highest standards. It also felt good to wake up and know that he was outside.
During our stay, we also utilized the services of Chef Bryan. Please add his services to your stay. You will not regret it! We had spoken over the phone, prior to him coming, about menus and special diets. He was extremely professional and assured me that he would be able to accommodate everyone in our group which included two pescatarians, one vegan, and just one picky eater. Let me just say that after we tasted his food, there were no dietary restrictions. We all ate everything.
He arrived very early each day to prepare our meals and had the house fragrant with the scent of Jamaican cuisine. He even went the extra mile to come back for an evening that we did not request in advance and he brought us extra items that we'd run out of. My only regret is that we did not book him for our entire stay. I tried to pack him in my suitcase but he just wouldn't fit!
Overall, this was such a beautiful experience and my group and I could not have asked for more. When it was time to go, I almost cried. Literally!
I look forward to coming back to this property and I also look forward to being welcomed again by the wonderful staff. I'd give an extra star if I could.
