My husband, and two children ages 4 and 7 and I , just returned from a wonderful vacation in Ocho Rios Jamaica.We stayed in this lovely, clean and convenient apartment, situated right by the ocean. We were steps away from a beautifully maintained beach, where we could safely swim with our children and snorkal on a vibrant reef only steps into the ocean.My husband enjoyed fishing on the cliffs out back, right under our balcony, while the children played football on the lawn behind him.I ran many mornings, through the town, only a few blocks away.Shopping and night life and good restaurants in Ochi are wonderful, and many markets or street side vendors sell fun goods and good produce close by.The duty free jewlery section is worth a visit!
The property is security monitored 24 hours a day, and it is a gated community for residents only, so we felt safe leaving our belongings in the apartment when we travelled, and we felt safe in our beds at night...so important when travelling !!!The guard staff is highly visible, professional, and happy to help at any time.This also meant our beach was free from any unwanted persons, only approved staff on site.We had all sorts on water sports, boat tours and food, drinks etc. availeable at the beach if we wanted, but never had pressure to use these amenities, so we just did our own thing daily with no one bothering us.All in all, a wonderful place to vacation with your family in Jamaica!!!
Many thanks to our maid , Dawn, who was helpful but not intrusive, and the owner , Sandra, who made our rental a seamless process, even though our flights were delayed.They were always reachable,professional and right there to make it all work.
We will definitely do it all again!
Sincerely
Brenda, Trevor, and family
