Home away from home!

The property was exactly as described! It is in a very quiet location and is the perfect place to unwind and relax. The beach is just a short walk away and is beautiful with great sunsets!Patrica was great, she communicated well with us and helped with everything we needed. The pool right out the door is nice too! There is also a pizza place and a restaurant next door at the yacht club which is very convenient! Will definitely be staying here again in the future!

Short but sweet stay

We were in Jamaica for personal reasons and stayed a total of 3 nights with only one full day at the property. It was quiet and calm. We watched the cruise ship and boats, and cooked breakfast in the nice kitchen. Great place, I would recommend.

An beautiful place

My mother and I stayed for a last minute trip and the place was exactly what we needed. It was bright, airy and close to the beach.The place was also very secure with a security post and person posted there. I loved the front nook as it has plenty of natural light, some really good art books and comfortable day bed. If you want to party this is not your place - its one of serenity and restoration. Exactly what my mother and I needed. When I return back, this place will be top of my list to stay. I hope its available every time I want to stay in it!

Satisfied

This place is absolutely awesome. It satisfied all our needs and more. My finace enjoyed the pool immensely and in his opinion sitting at the edge of the ocean overlooking the yacht club was soul soothing. Especially at night. Top notch in regard to cleanliness, location and accessibility to everything that you may need and so very peaceful.

Like staying at your thoughtful aunt's place

Everything has been considered in Patricia's property––from the fully equipped kitchen to the comfortable daybed in the sunroom. It's like staying at your aunt's house: comfortable, clean, taken care of. Patricia was extra thoughtful with me, accommodating my fragrance sensitivities in advance by providing new bedding. This residential development is low-key and serene, with a bayside walkway and a short, easy stroll to a nearby beach.

Just what the doctor ordered

This property looks exactly as advertised, it is fully stocked with everything needed for your stay with complimentary coffee, water, and snacks. The check in process was simple and communication with host is fast and efficient. The place is beyond clean....it's immaculate. The king size bed is ultra comfortable and the grounds are kept nicely. Location is central to everything. Patricia is a wonderful host with great energy and a kind spirit. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to unwind and enjoy Jamaica.

Birthday vacation!

My husband and I spent our birthdays at the property and we absolutely loved the unit and the property. The home was clean and inviting. The bed and linens were practically new! Ms Patricia had beverages and light snacks that came in super handy. I will consider this property in the future. Thank you for every single thing. She was also very responsive and checked in with me almost daily. Thank you for that too.

Idle Time it Is

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment had everything we needed and Patricia was very welcoming and had good resources and ideas to help us enjoy our visit to Jamaica. We particularly liked the large pool which was empty most days when we used it. The apartment was safe and quiet and we liked that we could walk to the Hard Rock Café and the Yacht Club for meals. We booked excursions through the Sunscape Resort across the road and this worked out really well. You need a car to get groceries or shop or could take a taxi which were plentiful around the area. I would definitely recommend this accommodation for a relaxing visit to Jamaica.

Super chill time in Freeport!

The home looks just like the pictures. Patricia is welcoming and friendly. She answered any questions that I had (before and during my stay) promptly and thoroughly. The apartment is on the bay - watching the cruise ships come in is fun - and you can walk across the street to the public beach. The apartment complex pool is clean and pretty. Plenty of places to lay around and grab sun and read. I hired a driver (Gregory from Native Tours) who took me to Negril (about an hour away) and showed me all the amenities nearby. Fontana Drug, Progressive grocery store, Cafe Blue...you've got to try a Juici Pattie. I'll be back for sure. Thanks, Patricia, for sharing Jamaica with me!
