Discover Treasure Beach and Hikaru
Review Submitted: April 21, 2009
Date of Stay: October 2008
Hikaru is a vacation destination for the inner adventurer in all of us waiting to escape.
Even though the option to swim in the pool or the ocean or just lie in the sun is ever-present, discovering the local color is a defining part of the stay. A boat ride up the Black River to see crocodiles or to jump off a jungle rope swing hanging down 30 feet in the air into that same river, playing dominoes with the locals at the corner bar in town, listening to ragae at Jake's, a fine dinner of Miss Vannessa's lobster salad, lunch at the Pelican Bar (right out of "Survivor"), it's all there for the taking. So much to discover.

What a magical place! We spent a most magical week swimming, snorkeling, getting to know the lovely Jamaican community, enjoying the rich bird and reef life and the many many comforts of Haikaru!
Best family vacation ever

We needed a vacation that would suit our entire family. We have older teens, a ten year old and ourselves the parents. Hikaru met all of our needs and surpassed our expectations! The house and property are clean, beautiful, and private. We swam right off our own beach, in the beautiful private pool right on the property, and prepared our 16 year old daughter for tennis tryouts on the private tennis court. The staff treated us with respect and kindness and lovely sit downs meals (I did not cook or wash a dish for a week). We took tours with the a lovely driver who was a wonderful guide went to dinner at a fabulous outdoor restaurant in the neighborhood and had time to really relax as a family. If you are looking for something off the beaten track and want to get to know some lovely local Jamaican people as well as relax then this is the vacation spot for you! We felt like we really left our world and entered another.
Heaven at Hikaru

Hikaru was amazing. The sunshine, beach and graciously warm company made it a paradise. I’ll never forget the friendly faces and the sound of the ocean as it put me to sleep and gently pulled me to wake every morning. This is a little piece of heaven that I will always cherish in my memories.
Owner's Response: Enjoy Rose's experience. Cognizant of rising air fares, we're holding 2008 rental rates into 2009
A Week at Hikaru
Review Submitted: July 25, 2008
Date of Stay: February 2007
My wife and I joined the owners and four others for a delightful week at Hikaru in February/March of 2007. The house and grounds were well kept, the food was delicious, and the opportunities for a wide variety of activities were excellent. We took short trips to visit the YS Falls, to take a boat ride on the Black River nearby, and to Lover's Leap Restaurant on cook's night off. We particularly enjoyed walking the beach, swimming in the pool, and relaxing conversations on the veranda after dinner. Staff consisted of a cook/manager, a cook's helper, and a general handyman.
A Lovely Holiday at Hikaru

My family, including 3 children, had a fantastic vacation at Hikaru. It was totally relaxing and we were so well looked after and pampered by the staff, not to mention the lovely meals that were prepared for us. We all enjoyed playing tennis and taking long walks on the beach. It was hard to get the children out of the swimming pool. The cosy house was well maintained and very clean. Our only regret was that we could not stay longer. We definitely hope to visit again.
Owner's Response: Thanks; we think our Hikaru is indeed a wonderful place for children.
South Shore Paradise with the best staff

Having stayed at several Treasure Beach Villas or 20 + years we are always pleased when we return to find the area still peaceful and friendly. We love to stay at Hikaru for the views and location but most of all because of the staff. Anyone who has experience with renting staffed villas will know that above all else it is the staff that makes or breaks your vacation. Hikaru consistently exceeds our expectations whether it is Miss Vanesa's outstanding jerk chicken or Miss Roxanne taking care of the little ones while mom and dad relax with a good book.. The owner keeps the property up each year so that even with the recent hurricane activity we have never experienced any issues. HIkaru hints, the extensive what to do and see while in Treasure Beach, is a great tool for the first timer and returning guest alike. We are always sad to leave Hikaru but we know we will return and that helps soften the pain.
Owner's Response: Thanks, Gary. Come back soon to see our newest improvements!
Jamaican villa Hikaru at Treasure Beach
Review Submitted: June 1, 2008

My family and friends have been vacationing in Jamaica for the past 12 years and we've been to Hikaru at least 5 or 6 times. It is true paradise! We have stayed at various places throughout Jamaica but always return to Hikaru. The people of treasure beach are so wonderful and the staff at Hikaru ensure you want for nothing. The staff take such great care of everyone! Oh yeah, the panaramic view of the ocean can't be matched! Treasure beach is a laid back fishing community but there is still so much to do. We always rent scooters for quick trips around town (thankfully there's little traffic). Local fishermen will take you out for some deep sea fishing. Some our favorite destinations are YS falls, Appleton Rum factory, and the Pelican Bar (built out on a sand bar) which is a quick boat ride away. If your looking for a truely relaxing vacation where your only decision for the day is "what form of nothing do I want to do today", Hikaru is your place.
Owner's Response: Kim is among many who've come once, and then keeping coming. Please join her!
