Pros:

Der Garten war aussergewöhnlich, die Vielfalt der Blüten, selbst der Doktor bird hat sich wohlgefühlt. Das Frühstück war exzellent, der Kaffee leider etwas schwach. Der Früchteteller unglaublich lecker, zwei Eier nach Wunsch, Saft und Toastbrot und ein Muffin, bei der Aussicht scheckts noch viel besser. Ja, es ist nicht billig, aber es ist seinen Preis wert.

Cons:

Dinner Menu Karte recht eingeschränkt, shephards pie statt Fleisch nur Knorpel. Mein snapper war kein snapper :), eher Barsch oder Kabeljau... Die Preise wirklich zu hoch. Die Karte auf dem Internet alt, jetzt noch mal ca. 20% teurer.
Trotzdem die Lage ist superb, der Garten einmalig 🥰

Beautiful Caribbean mountain hotel for a peaceful stay
Pros:

Absolutely wonderful location which the hotel aptly uses. Beautiful grounds to wander through, with many tropical plants and birds to see. The staff were warm, welcoming and helpful. The studio rooms are delightfully arranged, with a comfortable bed and a private balcony overlooking magnificent views of the foothills of the Blue Mountains down to Kingston and the Caribbean Sea. Very peaceful. Would happily stay again and recommend.

Cons:

Nothing - fantastic hotel.

Historisches Hotel mit Charme in den BlueMountains
Pros:

Das geschichtsträchtige Anwesen liegt eingebettet in den BlueMountains mit sensationellem Blick auf Kingston. Die Bungalows sind geräumig und sauber. Das Personal ist freundlich, der Empfang herzlich.

Der Außenbereich des Hotels ist sehr grün und gepflegt. Man kann dort sehr gut entspannen. Der InfinityPool lädt zum Schwimmen ein. Jedoch war dieser und der Pool im Wellnessbereich zum Zeitpunkt unseres Aufenthalts noch gesperrt, verschmutzt durch den Hurrikan Melissa. Eine Geste des Entgegenkommens für diese Einschränkung gab es leider nicht.

Cons:

Leider wurde unserer Buchung „Zimmer mit Bergblick“ nicht entsprochen. Der Zugang zu unserem Zimmer, welches wir stattdessen erhielten, verfügte über sehr viele Treppenstufen! Man sollte schon einigermaßen fit sein 😅

Die Qualität des Abendessens entsprach nicht dem Preis-/Leistungsverhältniss. Das Personal ließ oft auf sich warten.

Einige Annehmlichkeiten aus vergangenen Aufenthalten haben wir vermisst.

Die Zufahrt zum Hotel ist etwas holprig.

Pros:

Beautiful views

Cons:

Some of the staff were not very pleasant and there was a lack of communication between reservations and front desk, I had no idea they were separate entities. My sister was listed as a guest on my reservation yet it was a hassle for her to visit me. I didn’t like how I was being treated as a Jamaican born and raised visiting my beautiful island for my 40th birthday. I assumed my stay would’ve been a special and pleasant one but I was somewhat disappointed with the service of some of the staff, not all.

Pros:

A Perfect Mountain Escape

We recently stayed at this stunning mountain resort, and it was everything I hoped for — peaceful, beautiful, and rejuvenating. Nestled high in the mountains, it’s the perfect place to disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature. There isn’t much to do here in terms of activities, but that’s exactly what makes it so special. The days are spent listening to the sounds of nature, walking along scenic trails, and simply soaking in the fresh mountain air.

The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable — always friendly, warm, and attentive without being intrusive. The food was absolutely outstanding; every meal felt thoughtfully prepared and full of local flavor.

Our room was spacious, comfortable, and had a breathtaking view of the mountains and the city of Kingston — the kind of view you could stare at for hours.

If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat where you can unwind, eat amazing food, and be surrounded by nature’s beauty, this resort is

Cons:

The rooms could use some updates, but there’s a certain charm to it — you almost feel like you’ve stepped back in time.

Amazing. Stunning. Awesome.
Pros:

Alles in diesem Hotel ist einzigartig. 1000m über der Hauptstadt mit Blick auf das Meer, mitten im Dschungel und dennoch sehr stilvoll schlicht und komfortabel. Authentische Freundlichkeit des Personals, einzigartige Anlage des Hotels (fast jedes Zimmer mit einmaligen Ausblick, da rundherum auf dem Strawberry Hill angelegt). Habe mich noch nirgends wohler gefühlt. Eigentlich ein Muss, wenn man auf der Insel ist.

Breathtakingly beautiful. Nature's paradise. 10/10 would definitely recommend!
Pros:

The food was excellent, the staff (especially Omar) were polite, knowledgeable and professional. The grounds were well kept and the scenery for a nature lover.

Cons:

The stairs gave me a full week of leg workout. Wish I had gotten a room closer to the dining area. The lizards had me on edge, but that's to be expected with the location and the plethora of trees.
