    The place was nice, a lil dated. It was close to shopping and dining. I didn’t like that the AC units were on timers. I had to wake up in the middle of the night to turn them back on. Some of the windows only have screens so the place didn’t stay cool. The shower was cold , no hot water throughout the apartment. And there was a roach in the silver drawer.

    The stay was good however, I was traveling with small children and we did not like the steps up and down to get to our villa. If I had of none there would be a large amount of stairs to climb we would have preferred to stay somewhere else. Also, the villa could use some much needed updates and a good cleaning.

    1. Great Location! Clean and Neat with WiFi! 2. Walking distance to Magaritaville, good food and music! 3. Be ready to WALK up and down the hill if you’re into adventure but you also have an option to call ride provided by the owners list of Drivers. 4. Owners are easy to contact and very helpful. 5. Bring the OFF for mosquitoes in Jamaica, i made the mistake of forgetting mine. 6. Safe environment 7. Typical tropical housing - so no glass window panes like home in USA. But still comfy. Does have A/C but we were comfy with the ceiling fans only. 8. Very close to Dunns River Falls! 9 1.5 hrs from Montego Bay airport 10. We LOVE IT there!!

    BE AWARE: We left our vacation exhausted from lack of sleep (ear plugs did not help because we could still feel the thumping from the loud music). This condo is right next to a gym that plays thumping loud music ALL day and night. It is also a four minute walk to downtown Ocho Rios so you will hear and feel the loud thumping music from the establishments there ALL day and night as well. I contacted the host immediately and the music level would go down for a bit, but then would resume to the normal level. I asked for a refund for the remainder of our stay so that we could find a place where we could get some sleep and she said that the best she could do was give us a 20% refund. On our last day, I contacted the host to ask when we would receive the 20% refund and she told me that she was unable to give me 20% because of VRBO rules. Not true! Also, the floor was so filthy that we wore our shoes the entire time. In the bathrooms, they supplied one travel size hand soap. Yep- that's it. The positives: It is convenient to be able to walk to town, but NOW I would rather be farther away so that we didn't have the music and thumping all day and night!! There are many tourist attractions that are 15-20 minute drive. It was nice that they supplied beach towels and chairs that we could take to the beach. The host always responded to my emails although she didn't follow through with giving us a 20% refund.

    I am a Jamaican, living in The UK and wanted somewhere to stay local to the airport and places we could have family days out. This property definitely fitted all the criteria. When we first viewed the property my husband insisted we booked it instantly as the pictures of the property made it so inviting. And we have no regrets. The communication with the host was 10 out of 10. The property was very clean and had all the amenities you would need if you were home. It had everything we needed to make breakfast, strong WiFi, a pool a few meters away, clean comfy beds and so much. A home away from home. We wanted transportation from the airport and Ann-Marie recommended Richard who is JUTA registered and all I can say is 5* service. His communication with us before arrival was spot on and when he collected us from the airport he was so accommodating. He took us to get our hungry teenagers food and even stopped off at two supermarkets so we could get some breakfast stuff. He is also the caretaker for the property so he could be contacted with any concerns we had. He took us back to the airport and even stopped off with us at KfC to get food for the flight at no extra charge. The housekeeper Miss Beverly who we met twice was very lovely. She made sure we always had clean towels and beddings during our two weeks stay. Very pleasant and helpful lady. I will definitely visit this property again.

    We had a wonderful experience. It’s everything we expected and more. Close to the pool. Great outdoor space. Fully equipped kitchen. Location is within close driving distance to many tourist attractions and the downtown area. Great communication with the owner and the housekeeper from the beginning to the end of our stay. Not much more you can ask for at a home away from home!

    We had a very good experience renting the property and working with Ann-Marie and her team. They were immediately accessible and responsive when needed from beginning to end, and made sure we were comfortable. When our flight was delayed, the housekeeper Beverly waited until 8pm for our arrival. The House Manager Richard always made himself available and checked on us regularly. The unit was clean, well decorated and in a great location. My only feedback is I wish we'd known there's a/c only in the bedroom. Even with a ceiling fan, no a/c in the common area can be uncomfortable with the heat, and that's where the TV is. Otherwise, Ann-Marie, her team, and the unit were fantastic!

    My stay started off bad with the checking in process, it seems as if the housekeeper and the security was not expecting me. Then the first night the electricity went away. After all that my stay was excellent. Ann Marie was a good host and she checked on us very regularly. I would recommend this place to anyone. Ann Marie explained to us what happened in the beginning and apologized then things got better.
