This place was full of mosquitos and this place is not as shown in pictures and kitchen back door would have access to your bath room. We checked this place and told we want leave immediately and owner said he will refund money as mention as no show up and we were asked to please not to write any bad reviews and we never got refunded . This messed up our trip plan as well

This is located in the hills, about 20 minutes from Ocho Rios the drive is a little bit of an adventure but the view is amazing. Perched on a hillside overlooking a beautiful valley it feels completely different from the seaside resorts. I stayed in a room named "Morning Light" and found out why when the sun rose. The staff was charming the local rooster less so, we got even with some free range eggs for breakfast. I highly recommend staying here to anyone who wants to really experience Jamaica while feeling safe and comfortable.

Beautiful country location with great owners
Lovely place in the country on a scenic route not far from town. Great vibe, kind and attentive owners, simple, clean and comfortable rooms, with excellent coffee and I hear that the chef is terrific, though I was not present for meals. A taste of real Jamaica, not the typical tourist spot.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room smelled moldy. There were no mosquito nets so we had a lot of mosquitos in the room. When we arrived no one was at the house - the key for our room was just in the door outside. The kitchen was closed so we were not able to cook and there was no one to open it. However it’s good enough for one night and the view is nice.
