4 Stars Hotels in Portland, Jamaica

Our main goal in Jamaica was to explore the smaller endemic wildlife in the eastern part of the island, so we booked this hotel with this purpose in mind. The garden of the hotel is large and has many spots to watch the local wildlife. We in fact only left the premises once to head to the blue mountains. The rooms are spacious with the possibility to make yourself a tea or coffee (coffee and fresh drinking water is provided) whenever you feel like it. Rooms are clean and equipped with everything you need for a stay. Following their eco concept AC is not installed but fans and the wind from the sea are enough to cool you down. The staff is very helpful, always friendly if approached. Breakfast can be included - go straight for the Jamaican options for breakfast. Chef Mike is Italian but is very experienced in the Jamaican Cuisine. If you expect the same prices as in the streets for the menu you shouldn’t bother to order. Angela was taking care of every request and can organize whatever tour you want to do. We enjoyed our stay very much are grateful for this pieces of nature close by the place where you sleep. As our purpose might be very specific: check their website for all details before you book. If you’re used to (or expect) all-inclusive beach resorts you might find this hotel a bit odd. As a small place of peace and stillness close to Port Antonio you’ll most likely enjoy the maximum of 10 guests inside of a beautiful (because not overdone) garden.
