My husband and I just returned home after a week at Jolly Mon with our 3 teenagers. What an amazing memory and week! We cannot say enough good things about the Jolly Mon, Jane (the owner), the location and overall experience. A+!! I hate writing this because I don’t want to have to share this wonderful place with others. 😉 The views take your breath away. Pictures do not do this home justice. Our kids were so excited. Our 18 yr old daughter literally squealed when we opened the door. The kids are already talking about wanting to come back. In our opinion, the Jolly Mon is on the best beach. The kids didn’t want to go to other beaches. We walked every day. The kids snorkeled and kayaked. We only saw another family on the beach 1 day the entire week and we walked quite a distance.
The home is very well done and has everything you need. It is perfectly situated in the middle of the island. It’s like a private resort. Power went out on the island several times during the week but did not affect us because of the generator in place. In addition, we did not have to purchase water due to the water purifying system. This was a huge blessing as we saw many people routinely purchasing large jugs of water. Favorite restaurants were Tippy’s and pizza from Mate and Jane’s. The Island Farm is close by and excellent for fresh produce and baked goods. We highly recommend doing a charter with Captain and Kid and going to the fish fry / street party at Governor’s Harbour on Friday nights. The only thing I would change is packing frozen meats and cheeses to bring with us.
Lastly, Jane was wonderful! Very responsive from start to finish. She went over and above in our book. So glad we got to meet her. Thank you, Jane, for sharing this amazing home with us! We will be back.
