Awesome Vacation!

We stayed at the Cottage for a period of 5 weeks, Jan. to Feb. 2025. The Cottage was cozy and the perfect size for a couple. We had everything we needed and there is a supermarket a 15 minute walk away. The Caretaker Chris is a great host and always ready to help when we needed it. The grounds are beautiful and very well maintained.The beach is exactly a 5 minute walk away and the food at the beach restaurant is amazing. It was a very relaxing vacation.

Great stay

Nice place. Studio a bit on the small size but very clean. The jaccuzi and swimming pool was great. However, i would suggest that the owner invest in an awning at the front of the building because when it rains, it's awesome to look at, but the front door can not be opened, as the rain will pour in. Chris, the caretaker, is a great guy, very friendly and helpful.

Great Experience, Definitely coming back!

Staying at this villa made me feel like I was at home. It was very cozy, had two beds as listed, a nice small bathroom, a mini kitchen (including stove, microwave, fridge, coffee maker, kettle, pots, pans, cups, bowls, etc.), a dining table, a wardrobe. iron, tv, wifi, and a porch. It is in a gated area and the beach is 5 minutes away. We were given a beach card that gave us access and gave us a discount on food from a restaurant & bar on the beach, that my partner enjoyed A LOT. Our guide was Chris, who communicated with and constantly checked up on us to make sure we were okay, even shared ways to get around the island, and made calls for us to experience excursions (this was so nice of him). Anything you needed Chris was there. You’re given two keys for both the gate and your villa, plus there’s a guard before entering the community that verifies who and where were staying with. If you’re looking for a private experience for the low, this is for you. Leaves so much room to use your money for more on the island. Thanks Chris, we appreciated everything!! Alvin he did great.

Outdated, facilities dont work, owner dosmt responde to complaints, staff crying very very poor

Awful. From day 1 to day 25. We will never stay here again. We have stayed all over the island but this was by far the worst. Hot tub never works and is always cold. Pool never available for use. Beach access expired. Ask staff many times to help with our complaints and they would either start cryin or say soon come back and never come back. Property dirty and muddy, rooms very dated and doors mouldy. NOT COVID SAFE AS OWNER STATED. there is no covid protocol here, no temps being taken no sanitizer and no staff wearing masks. Locals checked in every thurs fri and sat of our 4 week stay and had parties of over 15 people (legal limit) keeping us awake each night with a small child. No hot water on property as none of the power showers work. Jacuzzi in main bedroom dosmt work. No tennis court or spa as stated online. Only good thing about this property is the location and laundry facilities

Very nice getaway!

At first we were really skeptical but hopeful, having not using HomeAway before. We were pleasantly relieved when we finally got there (it was almost a 2 hour hike from the airport and driving at night and not familiar with the area or lay of the land as far as how other drivers were-(very scary)). The room was just like it was pictured, nice, quaint and private like I liked. It wasn't the most updated but was clean and comfortable and suited our needs. The caretaker Chris, was awesome and very friendly. He cooked us great meals and was very helpful with whatever we needed. The housekeeper Tameisha was very nice as well. We rented a car, which we probably could have used a taxi whenever we wanted to go out to town, as driving around in town with locals takes some getting used to. We survived that adventure, LOL! The only complaint was that the 2nd day of our 7 day vaca, the TV stopped working, so for the times of day we were inside or at night, we listened to music on our phones, which was ok for a day or two but was quite boring overall. It was replaced on our last night stay. I would return to Mammee Bay, its secluded and quiet and with the exception of a barking dog every now and then, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you Mr. Alvin, Chris and Tamiesha!!

A splendid holiday in Ochi

Our third stay in this villa in three years and there has been some significant changes. It just gets better each time we visit. The staff there took good care of us and pointed us to the lesser known but beautiful Konoko falls and gardens. We went horse riding as well. Jamaica is just so beautiful and serene. We are definitely going back soon.

Ocho Rios is a taste of paradise on earth

I have had the good fortune to travel extensively throughout the majority of my life and I have been places. Up to this point in time, nothing can match the beauty of Jamaica and I think Ocho is the best place to be whilst there. I stayed in this lovely villa, close to the beach and thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Home away from home

My stay at Patiently Waiting was wonderful! The cottage was clean and well appointed, the staff was amazing, the grounds were beautiful, the pool was always sparkling and inviting and the community is safe and secure (gated property within a gated community) The beach is a very short walk (or drive, if you prefer) and the food there at the Bamboo Blu is excellent. Patiently Waiting is very close to many of Ocho Rios’ attractions...Dunn’s River Falls, Mystic Mountain, Dolphin Cove and just a short drive to many others...20 mins to Green Grotto Caves or the Blue Hole, to name a few. I highly recommend this little gem for those who aren’t interested in canned vacations. I’m already planning my next vacation here! Many thanks to Alvin and the staff for an unforgettable experience XOXOXO

The Cottage, was lovely & very comfortable, it's truly a home from home experience!

Wow! Where shall I start? After such a long cramped flight from London, it was a breath of fresh air to arrive at the Mammee Bay estate, to be greated by security checking where we were staying then allowing us through to drive up to the property Villa Patiently Waiting. It was a wonderful moment to arrive, the grounds was huge well manicured with the plants and trees of Pardise. We were greeted by the caretaker Chris, and taken to our apartment (Cottage), which was lovely, real nice and Patienly waiting our arrival... Everything was there just like at home, but even better when its in such beautiful surroundings with the bright sunshine and a Hot Tub. We were in heaven on earth! The House Keeper Ms Pet, was a joy to Meet, what a lovely, warm friendly Lady! Other than my own mother I don't know anyone who can bring back White clothes to look better than new, she was always ready to assist us with cleaning not forgetting some Chit Chat. Mammee Bay Private beach is a Must to see its a real Gem, Just truly minutes from the villa we were able to kick back and relax on the loungers and beds, when we wasn't bobbling up and down in the sea. Other than the Supermarkets, everything is so close, such as tourist attractions etc. It was a wonderful holiday. Thank you all at beautiful Patiently Waiting and beautiful Jamaica.

What a delightful place to stay! Quiet, clean and well maintained, excellent location, friendly staff and more. Maurice (care taker) and other staff were so nice and very helpful! Thank you for your hospitality. The cottage was very clean and private. The proximity to the beach was excellent (less than 5 min walk). The pool was a great. Ochi is just a short ride away. Had everything I needed for a very enjoyable stay! Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended. :)
