AMAZING STAFF!
My family and I just returned from Sleepy Shallows and we had a wonderful time. The staff was amazing!!! Robert is a true gem, a rare find. Before we enjoyed Marva's delicious meals, each night we'd go around the table and say what our best part of the trip was... my 12 year old twin boys both said several times, that the best time for them was getting to know Robert!!! They really enjoyed him and they saw the true meaning of work, hard work!!! From sun up to sun down, he never sat down, he made sure everyone had what they needed, maintained the pool, the grounds, set the table for each meal, cleaned up after everyone, etc..... He really treats the property as if it's his own and his dedication shows! The property didn't have any wood for bonfires in the evening, and he knew how much my boys wanted a bonfire, so he walked around the beach with his wheel barrow and gathered sticks and branches and made a wonderful bonfire for us!!! Marva was a joy to have around and we enjoyed her singing in the kitchen as she cooked the delicious meals. Christine did our laundry at the end of the week and always made sure the house was clean. Moses, the security guard, kept us safe at night!! The staff at Sleepy Shallows truly deserves to be acknowledged and compensated WELL for all their hard work. Andrew the driver was also amazing! He was not only our driver but our tour guide as he would point out various places along our rides and also made sure we visited the best spots in Jamaica at the uncrowded times!
I agree with the previous reviewer about a few things. The ocean water wasn't very clear or blue as it is in the pictures. Andrew the driver suggested we visit Doctors Cave Beach which is nearby the airport. I'm so glad we did. The water there was absolutely incredible. Crystal clear!!!!! We spent most of the day there and the food there was so good!! Yummy! We also visited The Blue Hole, an absolute MUST if you visit Jamaica!! We had so much fun!
The boys enjoyed playing pool in the game room, however without any air conditioning in that room, it became very uncomfortable. An air conditioner unit in that room would definitely make it more enjoyable.
Jacqui the owner was always very responsive from start to finish. We'd definitely recommend Sleepy Shallows! If you decide to stay there, PLEASE be sure to tip the amazing staff! They deserve it!!!!! We miss them already.
Excellent property, great staff
We just left our one week stay at the Sleepy Shallows property and we're very happy with our stay. The description is honest, pictures are accurate, and there was more than adequate room for the 10 members in our party.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our requests. Marva, the cook, went to the grocery store a few times for things we had forgotten. Robert, the caretaker, would set up hammocks, volleyball, kayaks, and paddle boards upon request in addition to his groundskeeping duties. Christine, the housekeeper, kept the home tidy at all times and made our beds every morning and did laundry for people who requested it. Moses, the security guard, arranged for a small band to play on the beach for us one night with a bonfire that Robert built.
The game room with pool table isn't air conditioned. It would be nice if it was, as it can get very hot in there. Also, another recommendation that our party members mentioned was the possibility of paying the driver a set fee and having him available at any time as opposed to a pay-per-request basis. One criticism that came up among members of our party was that the water wasn't very clear as in the pictures. Robert assured us that due to the time of year, the river that feeds into the bay flows more and as a result more mud is kicked up and that it doesnt always look as murky as it did during our stay.
A helpful tip is that groceries are pretty expensive. Budgeting $30 per person per day seemed to work including alcohol.
We all agreed that we would gladly come back to this property.
Excellent Stay. Very comfortable and relaxing vacation
We had a wonderful time staying at Sleepy Shallows. They house was clean and well kept, located on a semi private beach (we saw no more that 12 people one the beach the entire time) and had more than enough room for the 8 of us to stretch out and relax. Jacqui the owner was great to work with. She helped arrange airport pickup and initial food purchases as well being very responsive to all of my questions. The staff was great. Extremely happy they were there and definitely added to the great experience. The food Marva cooked for us was wonderful, better than both of the restaurants we tried. And Robert was extremely helpful in keeping the place in order and helping us with various items. We made a great choice chosing this place and would highly recommend for anyone looking to get away.
Beautiful beachfront family vacation! Amazing house, grounds and staff
Sleepy shallows was a delight from beginning to end. Jacqui, the owner, was so helpful in making arrangements and setting up transportation. She recommended a driver, Andrew, who took us to and from the airport, and advised us on when to visit different attractions in order to avoid crowds and have the best possible experience. He was a great driver and made our trip terrific. The home is every bit as lovely as the photos indicate. The beach is very nice and shallow and calm. We really enjoyed the kayaks, hammocks, and the pool too. The true gem here is the staff. Marva not only cooked every delicious meal, but did so with love and joy. She even walked down the beach a ways to find some mint for our mojitos and aloe for sunburns. Christine welcomed us with open arms and she kept everything tidy and placed water by our beds at night and did our laundry before we went home. Robert worked tirelessly day and night keeping the grounds, beach and pool pristine and anticipating our every need and still had time to set the table at meal times and make bonfires on the beach at night. This villa is so much more than a just a house on a beach. We were given the gift of a lifetime by the lovely owners and dedicated, warm hearted staff: Memories with family, awesome excursions, relaxation and wonderful people we will always love and cherish. If you choose to visit sleepy shallows, you will not be disappointed, and please give the staff a big hug from me.
Best stay ever.
Our stay at sleepy shallows was absolutely 100% amazing! Could not recommend a place any more. The hosts were the friendliest people. No problems with anything at all. The house is beautiful and the beach is fantastic. Everything here deserves 10 stars! Thank you!
Pretty much as advertised
We just returned from a week at Sleepy Shallows. The pics and description are spot on. It's a beautiful property and the staff is outstanding. Robert is the man! The only caution I'd offer is the road noise is noticeable. One of the days we were there the rafting company next door was in full swing and had the jam box going. So if you are looking for complete peace and quite, this may not be the place. We were able to tune it out. But if you want a beautiful authentic Jamaican experience, Sleepy Shallows is a solid bet.
