This trip was planned for our daughter's 21st birthday, so we wanted to make sure it was memorable for her. Mel communicated and responded quickly to me prior to our trip which made everything so much easier. Mel met us at the airport, took us to the store to grab provisions before heading to the villa. He was friendly and made us feel welcome immediately. Once we arrived at the villa, we were in paradise, the pictures and description were spot on and didn't disappoint. The view was nothing short of amazing and exactly what we wanted. The villa was cozy, clean and felt like a second home, it had everything we needed if we wanted to use it. We did a few excursions and day trips and Mel helped with transportation and stayed with us which was great. He took us to local restaurants with fresh seafood, the best jerk chicken and sites around the island. I can't express how grateful we are to have had Mel as a host. As they say he is definitely "The Hostess with the Mostest"!

My husband and I spent 7 days at the Windfalls Villa needing some time away to rest and recuperate from life in general… the property truly looks as presented in the photos.
If you plan to see lots of things, you might want to rent a car, but if, like us, you are looking to relax, Mel can take you where you want to go when you want (just give him a head’s up) for a fee, which was very helpful since he knows his way around and can give you tips.
The bedroom we used faced the ocean view, and was quite large… The AC in the room worked well, and the bed was comfortable. Our mornings were spent outside by the “bar area”, enjoying the sunrise and birdsong, drinking our morning coffee…
My husband is a chef, and the kitchen had all the tools needed. When Mel picked us up at the airport, we went to a grocery store for provisions. Upon Mel’s recommendation, we purchased a water bottle from a neighbour of his, which did the trick for us… We enjoyed fresh mango from the property, and my husband had purchased some fresh fish off local fishermen (you can walk down to the main road, but it is steep in parts).
The living room was comfortable and TV worked well. I unfortunately had to bring some work with me, but my “outdoor” office was lovely, and the WIFI was reliable (note the WIFI is concentrated around the house and bar-grill area; it drops as you walk to the pool).
I used the pool most days. It is kept clean and is only mildly chlorinated. The outdoor property itself is kept clean by a groundsman.
Mel, Dee and Marsha were very helpful in giving information, filling us in on the culture, and providing good conversation overall, making us feel at home.
One gem not to miss: the Rocklands Bird Sanctuary. As a Canadian, the admission is not cheap ($25 US, with much of it goes toward preserving the sanctuary), but it was worth every penny… you have the opportunity to feed hummingbirds on your finger. And it is so peaceful and an unforgettable experience.
Another tip: Do not wait until Duty-Free to purchase gifts, liquor, etc. We purchased a few bottles of Jamaican hot sauce in local stores in Montego Bay… $2 to $2.50 Canadian, but $5 American at Duty-Free for smaller bottles.
Mel is in the process of improving the property, so I am sure it will be even better… for us it was just what we needed, and I never tired of the views or the birds. Thanks, Mel, for your hospitality. Truly a nice property.

We arrived winter weary and left Jamaica-ReVived! Our 7-day stay at Mel’s house was wonderful. We highly recommend Annika the chef and staff member Dee for her helpfulness. On the night of our arrival, Annika prepared a meal of coconut silver snapper, homestyle baked chicken, peas and rice and plantain which lasted us a few meals! An opportunity to taste Jamaica. This is a spacious home located just between Montego Bay and the small town of Hopewell. The house offers 3 large bedrooms with comfortable soft top beds and each with a bathroom which easily accommodated a multi-generational family of five. Lots of space inside and out and, outside eating and lounging area. The property has a wonderful vista of MoBay, many birds including a Caribbean Woodpecker, and beautiful plantings. It is quiet and secure. Mel was generous, polite and knowledgeable. He made himself available every day when we needed, offered us mangos from the property, and many great tips on places to visit - Rick’s Café was a hit with our teens. The pool is very clean and quite large - good for morning laps. We enjoyed Doctor’s Cave Swimming Club, with a small reef for snorkelling, a short drive from this property. Also a shout-out to Verona’s in Saint James Parish for their excellent jerk chicken and pork and all fresh ingredients hot sauce. We highly recommend this home and send out a warm thank you to Mel for making our stay so comfortable. Heather & Andre, Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada

We spent a week at the house and had a wonderful time. The view is to die for and everything functioned well. I would definitely return.
