The staff were nice and polite. The rooms unexpectedly shared a common area with a kitchenette and couch, but it was clean and comfortable. The bedrooms and bathrooms were just as depicted in the pictures. The breakfast was definitely unique to Jamaica offering savory options such as vegetables, curry chicken, fish, and liver. If you are interested in trying authentic food to the area this place is for you.

Located a little way outside Ocho Rios, but a route taxi is pretty cheap to get to places (just make it clear you don't want a private charter or the prices skyrocket). The breakfast is very filling, the pool was fun and had pool toys, although the hot tub didn't always heat, there is a restaurant, fruit stand, paid laundry service, water refill shop, and two corner grocery stores just beside the property. Some are closed on Saturday and everything on Sunday though.
