We’re off to the best start of the New Year that we have ever experienced, thanks to our returning guests from all across the States and Canada knowing that the caring spirit of our staff will be reflected in the meals prepared and served, rooms cleaned, the yard and beaches raked clear, the tennis court rolled, and vigilance to all the little details required for their safety and comfort.

And Sun Shine Village, which is literally a stone’s throw from the property has been undergoing renovation with the addition of a food court and Country Store, a supermarket, that has one of the best selection of wines on the market, and all the fixings for fresh salads including mini-greens.
And for those whose memories are of the pungent aroma of ganja, there are now dispensaries selling locally bred varietals of the Jamaican herb. As with all progress, comes the formalization of a natural product that was always legal in Jamaica – psilocybin – which is now available as gummies, in curated chocolate, and dried mushrooms by Patoo with free delivery.
As always, the kayaks, paddle boards, and snorkeling gear are available at no cost to explore the shoreline near and far. And, with Max on board,
