You will experience the real Jamaica, 5 miles up the mountain from the sea in a rural community at 2000 ft you will find 68° at nite and 85° in day , we have three acres of gardens and forest with two cottage .we call ourselves "kimoya's cottages" after my step daughter. I am an American married to a Jamaican and have lived here 40 years...I am an artist and have build the cabins as an artist , writers , meditation, nature lovers retreat. The cabins have their own kitchens a n d we also offer a full dinning experience of three meals a day for 30 US,,
Walking in the community can be quite entertaining as well as our nature walks. We are also less than two hours from Negril, YS waterfalls, Black River Safari, and Treasure Beach. There are route taxis that take you on an off the mountain, we also have our own vehicle which your welcome to jump aboard when we go to town or the beach. .We have a driver that will pick you up at the airport two hours away round trip 180 US
To bring walking shoes/tennis shoes for the nature trails, also take along with you long sleeves for the cool nights especially after the rain and sleeveless for the daytime. I might also note that you do not have to worry about local power company failures because we are totally off grid with solar panels and lithium batteries and cisterns for catching rain water, a lot of what you eat comes from our own gardens or our neighbors .we also get eggs, chicken, and even goat and pig from our neighbors when they butcher .We live in a good old fashion rural community with hard work in the day and a little jamaican rum and redstripe at the local shops at nite time..we also have a handfull of locally built churches for those who feel the vibe on sunday morning.
