15 Reviews of Property 61868 in Ocho Rios, Jamaica

Wonderful place to stay whilst on holiday in Jamaica. Apartment was clean and nice with all mod cons. We had access to WIFI which was very good and also docking station for your IPOD on the stereo, flat screen TV's excellent cooking facilities.

The security was great they patrol day and night to ensure that everything was ok. Bruce the caretaker was always available in the event we need any assistance.

Children had a wonderful time in the pool, which was very good. I would recommend this apartment to anyone as we had a excellent holiday and did not want to leave.

In addition the view overlooking the harbour where the ship docks was awesome, we also had some wonderful Jamaican patties as it was just walking distance to the town. Excellent all round service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my husband and I would definitely stay at this apartment again. (Allison Family)

We stayed at Villa Serenity! absolutely lovely... will def go again. Bridgett was amazing! she made the best food... Couldn't ask for anything more!!!

We returned home after a lovely week at Villa Serenity and I wanted to write a complementary note on this beautiful rental. The physical beauty of the villa and grounds were only surpassed by the excellent attention and care given by Bruce, the house manager and Dalton our driver. And that too was (surprisingly) surpassed by the excellent cooking and disposition of Bridget, a gem!

Jenny & Clive thank you again for the opportunity of sharing your treasures and we will definitely stay with you again the next time we come to paradise..

Best regards
Marty and family.

This is the first time my father, sister and I went to Jamaica. Words can't do justice to describe how great our stay was.

Nancy is an awesome housekeeper who cooked food for our family dinners when we invite our relatives who were staying in hotels but due to their hotel restrictions, they can't invite us. All you need to do is take a walk to the store blocks away from the villa and then take the cab back with some food. Bruce comes by to check up on how things are at the villa and Clive and Jenny are always helpful.

The view of the lagoon from the villa gazebo is mind-blowlingly awesome. The apartment was spacious to have family gatherings.

This struck me on how fortunate I was to stay at the villa. When I went to see my relatives at a "5-star hotel" (I will not name) with my friend from Ocho Rios, I was surprised yet understood to see how angry they were at the front desk. A few mixtures of free rum and punch later and their anger of poor service grew in numbers. If we didn't pay $70 for that hotel's all day pass for outside guests and locals, I'd only grasp a 10 minute conversation with them in the lobby before security kicks us out. You won't get those hassles at Villa Serenity. You'll enjoy the freedom of walking with the locals at Ocho Rios and the clubs and the bars nearby as we did.

I've recommended some of my friends to Villa Serenity when they plan to visit Jamaica. If my friends and family are coming over, we'll definitely come back to this beautiful villa.

Our family of 5 stayed at the Villa Serenity for Christmas 2008 and New Year and had a brilliant time! The villa is very clean and spacious and located near the beach, shops, bars etc. Clive is knowledgeable about Jamaica and was more than helpful with the many queries that we had. Jenny is very prompt with paperwork and replying to emails.

Nancy cooked anything and everything we wanted and offered to do more. We always returned back to a clean and tidy villa. Bruce was very helpful and regularly popped in to say hello.

The villa is located on a steep hill, but you can make it easier on yourself by using the stairs or alternatively take a taxi for approximately 300 Jamaican Dollars.

We cannot wait to return back to Ocho Rios and will definitely be contacting Jenny and Clive to stay at Villa Serenity again.

Myself and 2 friends have recently returned from a 2 week vacation staying at Villa Serenity. During the booking period, we liaised with Clive who was extremely pleasant, informative and explained the booking process in detail. The paperwork came promptly and the whole process was completed speedily and efficiently. The villa was absolutely beautiful; even more so than in the pictures which in particular do not show how large it is. One of the best things about the stay was the lovely staff and it was brilliant to have a cook on hand at no extra cost. The location was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We have no hesitation recommending this outstanding villa. Len

We spent October 7th through the 14th 2008 at the most lovely villa. The pictures of the villa does not do it any justice, it has all of the amenities of home. I strongly recommend this to anyone who wants to stay at a beautiful villa overlooking the carribean sea, at a very affordable price. it is very private, and within walking distance to the heart of the city, everythiing you could need is right in town. its close to everything. The owners are just terrific. information was provided up to the day we left. the only thing is the villa is located on a very steep hill but please don't let this not deter you from renting so a beautiful place, just catch a taxi down at the end of the hill
