8/10
Great place to stay if you want to get a true feel for the culture. Excellent beach that felt private. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They made sure we had what we needed for the villa to include cleaning, towels, etc.
Staying out of season was challenging in that the available markets/grocery was limited so buying needed groceries to use with the unit kitchen was impossible for many items. The restaurants were limited with the property but the food was great and other restaurants are available nearby, although limited likely due to off season.
Only complaint was that Jake’s restaurant unlike Jack Spratt restaurant, which I understand is also owned by the property, presented our meal tabs in US instead of Jamaican dollars which added in my estimation about $8 to $12 per sitting for 4 people. When asked they did show the Jamaican dollar cost on our tabs but when they tried to run the credit card charges in Jamaican dollars, many times the card readers at Jake’s would reject for currency mismatch. I did not experience this at any other venue in Jamaica and have not experienced this traveling anywhere else in the world.
It was very frustrating, and we never got a clear explanation why certain card readers couldn’t process the charges in Jamaican dollars.
