The enclosed picture of the couch, pillow and lamp, echoes memories of 2 Glorious weeks I spent enjoying myself. Everything was wonderful, I wished I would have stayed there in July 2017, I was in a Hotel and could not cook and enjoy my companions Jamaican cooking. Plenty of beautiful garden scenery and the hot water is always hot, lol. The only problem I had were the mosquitos, but where in Jamaica can you go without encountering them. If you like your rest at night Casa da Buena Vista is the place you want to stay, quiet very quiet. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pan, and the utenciles needed. We borrowed the owners pressure cooker to cook cow foot soup. yum yum. Lisa the owner was the biggest surprise of my trip, I will be retiring in 2 years and she was very instrumental with advise and needed information to live in Jamaica. It was also a pleasure meeting her husband Richard.
