Pure indulgence!!

Wonderful house, wonderful staff. A real treat in a beautiful place which really gave us the chance to explore Jamaica on our own but come back to luxury and safety in the evenings! Highly recommend 😀

Great relaxing beachfront house

Janelle did a great job of keeping the house clean, changing the sheets and towels and doing our laundry. Charlie kept the beach and pool clean and arranged for transportation. Gloria made us great meals. Andrew shuttled us around and picked us up at the airport. The beds were comfortable and the AC in the bedrooms worked great.Bathrooms were immaculate. A large storm a few weeks before our stay took away a lot of sand from the beach making a little slope rather than a flat entry into the water. That also didn’t allow us to have a bonfire on the beach since the house and trees were too close. Mother Nature will change this again! We were there 2 weeks and had only one day of rain. There were waves that one day. Other than that the water was perfectly calm and wonderful. There were 3 kayaks, pool floats, and beach toys. The VRBO site stated breakfast was included which meant the cook was available for breakfast- food was not included. We opted to make our own breakfast since everyone got up at different times. Groceries are expensive. Don’t bother going shopping for groceries since it is not worth the $60 cab ride. You can have what you want called in and delivered. They showed up the day before we left to get our credit card. Their exchange rate is not good, so use the card and pay in Jamaican $. Plenty of seating outside. The pictures show the dining table outside, but it is really tucked in a corner of the covered patio. Not much of a breeze there!

Everything One Could Ask For

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Seahorse!! The staff and house were both outstanding. It had rained earlier in the week and so the storm water got into the bay making it a bit muddy; nevertheless we enjoyed the stay at the villa - great outdoor living space and a private pool and beach literally right outside the door. Very appreciative of the air conditioned bedrooms. This place had everything one could ask for in a beach vacation - centrally located between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. We enjoyed Chef Gloria's cooking and are very appreciative of the hospitality offered by the other staff members, Choppie and Janelle. If you're looking for a private vacation that's like having your own all inclusive, this is a safe bet - your own villa on a private beach in a gated community !! Love it !!

Seahorse review

We had a lovely stay at Seahorse with another couple. Very private, quiet and comfortable! We loved the pool and privacy of the bay…house staff was very accommodating, kept the property clean and catered to our food requests. Chappy the house manager went above and beyond to find some (highly sought after) wood to build us beach bonfires and Gloria, the chef, worked around a variety of different food requests. Andrew, our driver, was amazing as well (the recommended driver from the host)…he was just wonderful with suggestions and even hooked us up with his ‘fish guy’ so we could eat fresh fish a few times. Was a great trip!

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Considine

Our family has been traveling to Jamaica since 1999. Our two sons absolutely love the country, culture, and the numerous activities that Jamaica has to offer. We love being near the ocean and the tropical weather. For the vacation to feel like home, we wanted to stay in a villa instead of an all-inclusive resort. We have found that having a house to ourselves provides the family setting we were looking for!

Why they chose this property

Prior to purchasing Seahorse, we were very familiar with the bay area and the north coast. Having vacationed at a villa located on this beach, we knew this location would be idea for our beach home. The private setting and the quaintness of this bay community was the selling point for our family. Sitting in the middle of the bay, the view is fantastic as you look out to the sea. Away from the hustle and bustle of the two major ports, Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, we find that we really relax and unwind. However, we are just a short journey to the two cities for food, activities and nightlife.

What makes this property unique

The new renovation of the villa in 2015 completely changed the appearance of the villa inside and out. New tile, tongue and groove cedar ceilings, new windows, and an additional bathroom are just a few of the changes inside. On the outside, a privacy fence was completed around the perimeter of the property with new landscaping and a gorgeous swimming pool. When you first walk into the Seahorse, you have that feeling of comfort and being at home!
