A friend of ours, who lives in Ocho Rios recommended these cottages and knowing her taste and penchant for quality we met her there for two nights - two fabulous nights. When you pull up to the property, you would NEVER imagine what is hidden behind the gated entrance. What is there is a charming small "colony" of wonderful little gingerbread cottages tucked away along a lovely small swath of garden along a cobblestone walkway that spills out onto the most gorgeous stretch of white sandy beach with crystal clear turquoise waters. The rooms are well kept and clean with all you need for a beach vacation and a nice bathroom to boot. The room we booked had a sofa bed with lovely throw pillows as well as a king size bed and lovely wrap around porch with brightly painted Adirondack chars and tables. Monique, the manager (?), could not have been nicer. She went out of her way to accommodate every request. This is not a Ritz Carlton or Four Seasons (thank God 'cause that is not what we were looking for) - but it is more boutique with personalized unobtrusive, competent service. Personally we loved every moment we were there. There is one small area that needs to be addressed - and that is the attitude of the chef of the small on property cafe - which by the way has a fabulous breakfast which was included in our rate - the omelets were extraordinary and the banana pancakes were to die for - best I have ever had in the Caribbean or anywhere. Lunch was very mediocre but that was because of the chef – not the server. I was assured that they are working with the staff to improve service. Once they succeed this will be the perfect little gem of a hideaway and it will stay booked. It is a very special place in Negril – low key and enchanting - and the rates are wonderful for this absolutely gorgeous little swath of paradise. A must try and we WILL go back!
