7 bedroom Villa with Fabulous Ocean Views, full staff

food was excellent and lots of it

Having a cook, house manager and driver arranged really made the experience magically. Last year our group went to Disney for a week... if we had to choose one to do again.. we would choose this property in Jamaica for sure. There were a few minor issues (insufficient hot water for 12 of us to shower). A minor issue related to management changes at the beach which limited access. Overall an amazing experience which we will recommend to friends

Oh my gosh! what a wonderful experience. I was at the Tangerine Villa for a trip on January. We were a multi-family group and used both Villas. I have previously been to Jamaica and stayed at an all-inclusive resort which don't get wrong was it's own different fabulous, but once you're on site it could have been anywhere with sun, sand and tropical climate. This time we wanted to experience more real Jamaica and Tangerine and Palashia did just that. First off, we were welcomed by staff that we came to realize were genuinely wonderful. They were most helpful and made sure we had a great time. Secondly, the property was stunning. Breathtaking views. I loved the indoor-outdoor feel. I loved the visits from the Geckos or Salamanders or whatever they are called. The cool breezes were delightful. Some of our group did use the A/C units but I preferred the tropical breeze. Thirdly, the food was outstanding. We had a real mix from what I would call adventurous eaters to the downright picky (my teenage son was one of those!!). The chef artfully catered to all of us. Some of us got to taste some foods we'd never heard of and loved it. As we did our shopping for the foods/ingredients it gave us an opportunity to go to a local store and experience that. Isn't that the point of travelling. For sure it didn't look like the supermarkets I shop at here at home, but they had everything we need and more. Sally was able to turn her hand to anything that was asked of her. A true Chef. So the adventurous eaters and the picky ones were all satisfied. Fourthly, the pools were wonderful. I could have lounged there all day with an adult beverage (local rum of course, Oh and that Ting, another local grapefruit soda... Yum!) the setting in a natural jungle was true Caribbean for me. I certainly don't need the manicured lawns of suburbia when in the Caribbean. Like I said I could have stayed on the property all day, but did venture out and so glad we did. The private beach was exactly that. The kids definitely had a blast down there. They even got to ride horses in the ocean. It was only a few minutes by car, but if you need to get your step count up (and who doesn't after lounging by the pool?) you can walk down to the beach. It was what I would call a good exercise walk. After that a side trip over to Sharkie's for some fresh caught fish. Devine. Oops, running out of room. will continue my review on Palashia site......

This was our second trip to Jamaica and we wanted to stay at Jaquar Villas again, where we stayed during our stay 2016. We were a huge crowd, family and friends. This property is perfect for a big group of people as there are 4 separate units. We cannot say enough about the kind staff that worked long hours to cater to our schedule. Wonderful breakfasts and dinners were enjoyed all together, 46 of us, at the Palashia's large dining space. We had a all white party one night with a pig roast BBQ and DJ for music, it was a blast. There was scuba diving and fishing one day, golf tournament one day, 4 wheeling one day and lot of beach relaxation. We are already missing Jamaica and started planning next trip already. This time it wont be 3 years. Hopefully next year. And we are definitely booking Jaquar Villas again as it is the best place - awesome staff, great set up, private yet close to town and beach, near all the action of Ocho Rios and the coolest places. One Love !

We are a large Russian family. Always travel during the holidays, Christmas and New Year. We love to go to the tropics and relax. Here we had a wonderful time. The chef served excellent food and christmas dinner was the best that we ever had. We like to drink and eat and have good times. We had so much fun every day. The drivers took us everywhere in nice buses. All the jamaican people are so friendly and nice. We loved eating at the Sharkies seafood restaurant on the beach and went on a boat to have sunset cocktails. We also visited Dunns River Falls and climbed up the waterfalls. That was so great. New Years was a celebration bonfire on the beach, after late dinner. Next day we went to the Puerto Seco Beach Club, 10 minutes drive to next village. We had a private cabana with a butler serving us champagne and food and some of us went paragliding there. This is an amazing place, we recommend to go early and spend all day. There is a entrance fee $10. We love Jaquar Villas for our group. We are not easy people and the good members of Jaquar Villas took very good care of us, every day. I think we don't need to go to a new place anymore, just come back here, because nowhere else there is this kind of service as Jaquar Villas offers. Thank you and see you next year.
