If you are looking for oceanfront only mere steps to a nearly private soft sandy beach with snorkeling right in your little bay…or if you are looking to sit and listen to the waves and read..or if you want great meals that you don’t have to shop for or cook…then book this perfect little cottage! All of these things are here and you do not have to leave your haven! It was exactly what we were looking for!Janet cooked our meals while Cassie kept the inside spotless and Chris made sure the garden area was as well groomed and taken care of as the cottage. They are all great to get to know, as is the property manager, Gary. Gary is quick to respond to any questions you might have before you book and truly cares that your vacation is perfect.As mentioned by other guests, if you are a light sleeper you will hear cars and an occasional dog barking. I wore earplugs but my husband said her never heard a thing. Bring some and you have them if needed. Easy.We booked again for next year before we even arrived!

Great little villa on a more private beach in Runaway Bay was awesome! Janet, Cassandra and the crew were fantastic! Janet prepared some beautiful Jamaican meals, fabulous breakfasts and any snacks as well as adult beverages we needed! The ladies were very personable and also provided us privacy. Gary, our host, was very charming and helpful! We will definitely book here again!
