“A Hidden Paradise”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2011

Been to this beautiful resort twice and am eagerly awaiting summer when we'll make another trip to this piece of Paradise on Earth. The staff at this property are very warm and courteous. The resident manager, Ms. Jody-ann Christie who has a smile which "lights up your day" even stopped by our villa to check if we were comfortable. She is truly a professional who enjoys and has pride in her work.
We stayed at Villa 27 the last time. One of those which overlooks the lovely blue Caribbean Sea. Guests are provided with their own housekeeper/cook. You can make arrangements for your cook to shop for your groceries or you can take these items with you whichever is convenient. Must tell you that Loris is great. She kept our rooms clean and comfortable and prepared delicious meals each day.
These cool villas are nestled in the hills of Portland among lush vegetation. The grounds at Goblin Hill are very clean with green manicured lawns. I love to just laze in that hammock overlooking the tiny island, go for a ride in that swing under the big tree or just have fun running and rolling down that hillside of very soft green grass.
If you are looking for a crowd, parties at night, hustle and bustle for food, then this resort is certainly NOT the place. It's an ideal spot for a get-away, rest and relaxation.
Our only concern was that there could have been an additional piece of furniture inside our room to store clothing, but the experience at this "Hidden Paradise" will certainly "recharge your batteries."

“A glorious place to stay in a beautiful area of Jamaica”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2011

Goblin Hill is located on a prominence overlooking the Caribbean. It has spacious, clean, light and airy rooms that have a touch of old-world charm. The villas are self-catering in the sense that you provide the food. However, a housekeeper both looks after the accommodation and does the cooking for you. Our housekeeper, Andrea, was very helpful, understood our needs and provided excellent service. Denise, the Assistant Manager was charming and on hand to deal with any problem that might arise – none did. We had a very quiet villa on the 1st floor of one of the two storey blocks. This provided excellent views of the Caribbean and the gardens. Goblin Hill is within easy reach of several beaches of which Frenchman’s Cove is our favourite. The staff and the gardens are a delight. We highly recommend this location for a quiet hassle-free vacation for those who prefer charm and excellent staff to characterless modernity.

“Paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 December 2010

Goblin Hill is spectacularly beautiful, and peaceful. We stayed with a large group for a wedding, we were very well taken care of. The housekeeper/cooks are fantastic and friendly although a little shy. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a truly relaxing vacation.

“Excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2010

This hotel was recommended to us by friends who live in Kingston. It was perfect. Ignore the reviews that talk about bugs and run down facilities. First off the location is in the tropics surrounded by lush tropical foliage... so there will be bugs. Carpenter ants seemed to like our bathroom at night, but by the morning they were gone. The villas are not what you will find at a resort type of facility, but they are functionable, clean and comfortable. The staff was amazingly friendly and helpful.

Your housekeeper will shop for you and do all your cooking and those ladies can COOK! This place is perfect for the traveller who loves off the beaten path travel and who despise resorts. Visit Frenchman's Cove, while you are there, it is amazing.

“Perfect Weekend Escape Villa”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 July 2010

Beautiful , Quiet place close to the Blue Lagoon and other major attractions in Port antonio. We received free passes to French Man's Cove. The same beach featured in Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz Movie Knight & Day though the name wasn't mentioned. The housekeeper will prepare meals for you upon your request. I found the staff friendly , would definately stay again
