Beautiful Rental

Review Submitted: February 8, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2011
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.

Absolutely Perfect.

Review Submitted: August 18, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
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.

Absolutely Fantastic

Review Submitted: January 19, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
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.
