Amazing Experience
We truly enjoyed our stay at the villa. Clean and bright with an open air concept. The fresh sea breeze coming through the open doors all day was one of many favorite things that we loved. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! Ms. Annette made the best breakfast, lunch and dinner. She made several traditional Jamaican dishes that we loved. Karen and Ms. Annette also arranged our beach wedding. They had every detail covered from preacher, legal documents, cake and decorations. We had no worries.The walk to the beach took 1 min. We went everyday. We walked along the beach, swam and just relaxed. From the beach, we walked to Leroy's bar and met the locals. It was a great experience!Blue Hole, Martha Brae Bamboo Rafting, and Dunn's River falls were all great! Our driver, Kirk, was always there on time and took us straight to our destinations. He gave lots of local history and made great recommendations. Kirk was excellent.Our host, Karen, was always available by phone, kind, informative and really cared about our stay. I cannot write enough good things about our 7 days in Duncans Bay.Tips:Bring water shoes for hiking the Dunns River Falls - it is amazing! (thanks to Ms. Annette for supplying water shoes for me since I forgot mine)Meet the locals at Leroy's and keep walking down to the next local bar and restaurant - great people!Thanks again to Karen and Ms. Annette for giving us the perfect wedding and honeymoon experience.

Perfect Honeymoon
We had the best week at One Rythm! We were picked up by Kirk at the airport and we used him for the week to explore the island. He was wonderful a very kind man and great driver! When we arrived at the villa Mrs Annett had an amazing authentic Jamaican meal made for us! Every single meal she made was amazing and so delicious! Mrs Annett was the best host for the week. She helped us get massages on our last day and helped us with anything else we needed! I wish she could have come home with us, but we will just have to visit her again.

If want to be pampered and taken care of. Less than 700 feet from the Beautiful bach.
Ms. Annette was an excellent Chef, attendant, concierge, Tour guide, and confident person. She made our stay remarkable and memorable and kept the place spotless. If you book this location, your meals will be served when you want them and presented beautifully. One Rhythm is located within a few steps of the beach. Our host, Karen, made arrangements for our driver, Kirk, before our arrival. The Villa is secluded, so if you want to relax, One Rhythm in Duncan's Bay, Trewany, is the place.

Quiet and private
My husband and I chose One Rythm after looking at several other villas along the north coast. We like the fact that it was right on the beach yet private. Pictures on the website also made it seem very inviting. We were also very impressed with all the five star reviews received and how happy the previous guest were with their stay there. On arrival we were greeted by our housekeeper, Miss Annette. She was very pleasant and welcoming, and immediately gave us a tour of the entire property. She had a wonderful dinner they ready And waiting for us. Dinner was great. On our second day Miss Annette went with us to the Falmouth market where we bought fresh produce and meat for her to cook for us. Miss Annette continually went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and had all we needed. She did an amazing job with all of our meals. As for the beach, it was very clean and very quiet. We had the beach all to ourselves a couple of times. We definitely enjoyed the time we spent at the beach. The only complaint we have is with the amount of mosquitoes. We had to keep all the windows and doors closed to keep them out. It also limited how late we could stay out in the yard, that’s as beautiful by the way. However, overall, it was an awesome experience and we would definitely stay there again. Thanks to the owner Karen for being so available and willing to meet our requests and needs. Thanks again to Miss Annette for being an awesome host and a phenomenal cook.

One rhythm Villa
First time to Jamaica chose one rhythm villa. Was first picked up at the airport by our driving services which was greatly helpful. Kirk is an amazing dependable driver. Then arrived at the villa only to be welcomed by miss Annette, who had a meal already prepared for us. She is an amazing woman makes you feel welcomed safe, and is full of local experience and knowledge which helped us navigate our stay. miss Annette and Kirk took us to the grocery store. She helped us shop for the week after that we stayed at the villa because it’s that beautiful and the beach is amazing. We had one excursion but other than that we stayed right at the villa it’s everything it describes to be, and then some.! can’t speak highly enough on one rhythm missi Annette and Kirk, the driver. The locals are amazingly friendly! We fell in love with the dogs.lol will totally be returning

Everything you need to relax
We spend a week at One Rhythm and it was exactly as described. The beach is just a short walk away and it not busy (mostly just other vacationers staying at nearby rentals). This was our first time staying somewhere with a housekeeper/cook and it was wonderful not to have to worry about making dinner or cleaning up after meals. Miss Annette took care of us well. She is wonderful, but I will say it took a few days for her to fully warm up to us (or the other way around). Kurt was great as our driver to/from the airport and grocery store. We only ended up doing one day off of the property (to Ocho Rios) which Kurt drove us to and waited patiently for us during our lunch and river tubing.

An oasis of peace and beauty
One Rhythm is a beautiful little villa in a very small and lovely neighborhood. The yard is magical with so many gorgeous tropical plants that thrive in the warm and sunny conditions. The locals are very kind, friendly and respectful. The beach had small waves in November but people told me it was very calm at different times of year. Turquoise, warm water and the beach is often empty and you have it to yourself…a huge bonus. Local families go to the beach onSunday and we made friends with a few of the local people. Tony the Rasta man was our one stop shopping as well as being a friend. He is kind, genuine and extremely helpful whenever needed. He made a huge bonfire for us the last nite and we would help him out with food. I suggest the Martha Brae rafting trip..so much fun, and you could swim along side the raft in the clean waters. It was a fave and well worth the money. There is a neighborhood pack of dog gos which I would feed at the beach whenever I could. The two little girls were very sweet and I was sad to leave them. I wish I could have taken them home.. Captain Kirk was a great driver and very knowledgeable. And finally Ms Annette.aka Annie and Christine. She is a gem and her home cooked meals were out of this world, and made with love.So much better than restaurants.Our motto for Annie was she is an odd combination of “really sweet” and don’t mess with me”. A strong woman. Ask her to make you meat pies. Finally so much positive energy surrounded us.

a fabulous gem!
My husband and I stayed at One Rhythm for 2 weeks in Sept/Oct and it was just what we needed. We were looking for a quiet place to work but also to unwind and celebrate our anniversary, well away from tourists and crowds. We enjoyed watching the sunrises, swimming in the ocean, and playing in the rain. Ms Annette was so welcoming from day one and took excellent care of us. Her cooking is fantastic but what was really special to us was her kindness, warmth and sense of humour. Karen was so easy to work with and answered every question about the booking and what to expect, including arranging our transport with Kirk to/from the airport. Some top tips: No need to bring loads of clothing - Ms Annette will wash anything you need and everything is very casual. Do bring: deet-based bug spray, suntan lotion, shampoo / conditioner, and plenty of US cash. While the grocery store in Duncan may take a credit card, most other things you will pay for during your stay only take cash (JMD or USD). I would recommend having Kirk pick you up at the airport and ask him to stop at an ATM early in the drive if you don't have sufficient US cash already as there are no ATMs dispensing US cash near Duncan Bay. I would also recommend stopping at a grocery store on the way (Kirk will offer) to get all the basics you will need for the first 1-2 days. Thereafter you can ask Ms Annette to go shopping with you which is a treat in itself! Oh, and if you like seafood, Ms Annette will find you the best!

Healing in the Caribbean Sea
I came across this vrbo while googling in grief, I wanted to get away so badly when my pup passed away from kidney disease from Lyme, it was a hard time and i lost my rental home a month later in a fire. I thankfully dove in and booked this and took the risk, as i do not travel abroad often. From the woman who helped us at the airport, Charrett to the Driver Kirk and Ms. Annette the house manager, everyone was a gift on the trip. My boyfriend and i were safe, bellies always full, and the area and peace of the private beach was all the healing i needed. The love and care of the residents and generous hearts of the community around this villa, is what living a good life is all about! Thank you so much for this stay and the healing vibes we swam around in all week!
