If you are looking to experience the real Jamaica, rather than an all-inclusive fantasy version, this is the place for you. Everything about Pimento Lodge is genuine: the lovely proprietors, the Jamaican cuisine, the ambience and the voluble crickets.

Kate and Lloyd are incredible hosts and do all they can to make you feel at home. They are wonderful storytellers and caring people -- we loved meeting them and spending time with them. Their property is delightful for any nature lover. We spent hours birdwatching and taking in all the fruits and plants on site. The facilities are clean -- and also rustic (i.e. not fancy in a modern way). It's also a shame -- and not the hosts' fault -- that the road to get to the lodge is so beat up. Pimento Lodge is a nature-lover's paradise and we are so grateful for our time in this slice of heaven.

Pimento Lodge is a hidden retreat, albeit, a rough diamond, offering solace & serenity. A quiet place to reflect & refresh away from everyday hustle & bustle. Hosts, Kate & Lloyd are friendly & relaxed. Rooms are spacious and clean. The grounds are kept beautiful & the sea views are breath-taking. Meals are deliciously prepared on request from local produce grown on site. However, it does help to eat out in one of the many Port Antonio restaurants from time to time, as the hotel food is very expensive. This hotel would greatly benefit from some upgrades, as well as some added features, in services and amenities such as, access to WIFI, a TV in the room or a radio, as the rooms are very sparse. There were issues with the AC and water supply. A few tea bags on Day 1 of arrival would have been an added touch to wake up to, as well as complimentary continental breakfast should have been included in the price. I should add that due to the Pandemic restrictions, my partner and I chose this hotel for advertised specifications namely, WIFI and added comforts, unfortunately, these were lacking. However, Kate & Lloyd have assured us that they are addressing the issues of no WIFI and cable TV. I would definitely stay at this hotel again, provided the facilities and services have been greatly upgraded. Thank you Kate & Lloyd.

I felt very relaxed looking over the bay as the ocean breezes gently caressed me and fell asleep easily to the sounds from the gardens.

Jamaica has a wealth of hidden gems for the inquisitive tourist. The Pimento Lodge is one of those priceless jewels that offers far more than just an alternative to the all-inclusive experience. Huge rooms with comfortable beds, air conditioning, and glorious views of the Caribbean Sea are just the beginning. Katherine and Lloyd are superb hosts, excellent cooks, and go out of their way to insure you have perfect stay and want to come back. For the experienced traveler, the Pimento Lodge is conveniently located near Boston - the home of Jamaican Jerk, the famous Blue Lagoon, and rafting on the Rio Grande. The Pimento Lodge is also a perfect hideaway for a writer, screenplay producer, or editor to start, finish, or polish a written work of art. The peaceful atmosphere lends itself to creativity at the highest level. Complete with a large, clean pool and exotic garden, the Pimento Lodge has everything you need to refresh, unwind, and give yourself over to the natural life. When you’ve grown tired of the same “make believe” Jamaica, book a few nights or a few weeks in the Pimento Lodge and experience the “real” Jamaica for a change.

I love the quietness and tranquility of this hidden gem in the Portland Area. The low key atmosphere is great for resting and offer a difference from the larger scale resort type atmosphere. The workers were very friendly and the owner was very amicable and accommodating. Definitely would return.

The Pimento Lodge is a gem

The Pimento Lodge is a gem of a little hotel on a lush hillside overlooking the seat. With only 7 rooms, all unique, Pimento Lodge feels like a retreat. The grounds are beautifully planted with flowers and fruit trees, the pool area is inviting, and the peace and quiet are sweet.

Quiet, peaceful, gorgeous views

Nestled up on the hill, Pimento Lodge offers stunning views of the blue, raucous waves of Long Bay Beach. The rooms are spacious, immaculately clean, and comfortable. Every night, we sat on our veranda and listened to the birds and bugs. Kate and Lloyd are kind and friendly hosts, and we felt very safe. I'd recommend bringing snacks with you from your home country as the grocery stores have limited options-not a complaint, just an FYI. If you're driving yourself, get the tire insurance as the roads do have potholes. Bring Jamaican cash--you'll get better deals in town. Amazing time in a beautiful country.

Highly Recommend

The Pimento Lodge is a beautiful and peaceful property. The owners take great pride in the buildings, grounds, and the service. The attention to detail is great. The rooms are spacious and luxurious. The grounds are like a botanical garden with incredible views. This is a place to rest and relax and enjoy nature, good food, and good company. Long Bay may be a little remote for some, but it is a short drive to the many fantastic sights Portland has to offer. The Pimento is on a hill overlooking Long Bay, so there is a steep walk down to the beach, where there are some local sports bars/eateries. AS Pimento is an eco lodge, the water heater is primarily solar, so the hot water supply may seem inconsistent to some. Overall, you notice the energy conservation efforts very little. You do notice the quality of the wonderful organic and healthy meals that served that result from their organic gardening. I very much enjoyed my stay at Pimento Lodge and hope to return soon. Over time, the gardens will only become more beautiful and the property will become even more appealing. I recommend Pimento Lodge highly.
