Photos and Description of the Montego Bay vacation villa rental
Originally built in the 1940s for English actress Gladys Cooper, the Highland House has long been the site of momentous occasions. Perhaps the most notable moment in history occurred when the second owner, Broadway legend Oscar Hammerstein II, wrote the lyrics to "The Sound of Music" theme song from the Highland House terrace.
These theatrical roots continue to add a mood of enchantment to the villa. In April 2000 extensive renovations began to preserve the magnificent history while updating the estate with the latest amenities. A team of well-known artists and premiere interior designers created a series of charming environments woven together with a theme of elegant comfort. The décor reflects the island's Colonial British Indian heritage, incorporating carefully selected artwork, mahogany tables, collectibles, and imported antiques. Much of Dorothy Hammerstein's period furniture remains, as does her husband's spirit of creativity. As a result, today's Highland House is all the more spectacular - the culmination of refined beauty, artistic influence, and modern luxury.
