Almond Tree Villa is situated in the peaceful suburban district of Eltham, only a little over one mile from the nearest beach and three miles into the centre of Ocho Rios. Selbourne Gardens was highlighted in the Sunday Gleaner as one of the most desirable places to live in and around Ocho Rios and many of our neighbours are returning residents. 'Ochi' is a splendid major tourist resort with an impressive array of hotels, restaurants, bars and night life. The market is well worth a visit with its huge selections of exotic fruits, fresh produce and fish. Other nearby tourist attractions include the famous Dunns River Falls, Prospect Plantation and Chukka Cove for horse riding, Dolphin Cove where you can swim with the dolphins, Island Village, Bob Marley's birthplace at Nine Mile and playwright Noel Coward's house Firefly with its spectacular view over Port Maria. The villa is within easy reach of several very beautiful beaches.

Notes: Swimming Pool. The pool is a very recent addition to the property. Our guests can spend many a relaxing day sitting around the pool on a sun lounger while sipping a cool drink or two as the kids happily play around in the water. The pool measures 25ft by 15ft and is ideal for children being only 3ft deep at the shallow end where the steps enter and 5ft 6in at the deep end. The pool is very private and secluded being situated in the back garden and of course you and your party will enjoy exclusive use. The house manager Marvin and his partner Tessa reside at the rear of the property in a self contained apartment. Marvin is justifiably very proud of his lovely gardens and apart from security, which is his other role at the villa, he is always happy to offer his services as chef to ensure your holiday is enjoyed to the full. There is a maid service, which is included in the price of your holiday with Tessa coming in once a week (every Monday).

best holiday in jamaica ever

Review Submitted: August 29, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
The villa was amazing. Marvin and Tessa were like part of our family from the first day. Spacious enough for me and my 4 kids as well as any visitors I had. Pricing was flexible and reasonable. My kids loved the pool and and going to the riverand beach nearby. I visit jamaica every year with my kids for 1 month every year and this was the best trip ever. Close enough to Mobay and Kingston so I could catch up with friends there and far away enough to ensure my privacy. Would defineately recommend this villa to anyone visiting jamaica, Just add airconditioning for next year please.

Marvellous holiday

Review Submitted: January 16, 2012 Date of Stay: December 2011
Once again, a marvellous stay at Almond Tree. We love this place, it's like a home away from home. Neil, the owner is always in contact with you to make sure everything is ok for your stay and is always open to suggestions on improvements. Marvin and Tessa are absolute angels, helping out with everything, inlcduing going shopping with you at the local market, to help you get the best prices for things. Marvin's cooking is so good that I left it all to him, only cooking one meal in the entire three weeks we were there. He even was willing to pick us up in the early hours of the morning from various nightclubs in Ocho Rios. Tessa keeps the place spotless and her washing service is superb, its lovely to come home with all your holiday clothes already having been washed. Having the pool was a real bonus, especially the exclusive use of it. The peace and tranquility of this villa and its neighbourhood is the main reason we come back here, in fact we have already pre-booked for next Christmas and New Year. Love it and would highly recommend it to everyone.

The first guests! July 2006!

Review Submitted: October 19, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2010
The driver back then was Junior and he was a phenomenal resource. Marvin and Tessa were there as well and made us a FANTASTIC dinner one evening. I am SO jealous that there is a pool now as that might've been the only (very minor) complaint. A great way to do Jamaica without sitting in a resort and not experiencing the country!

Villa was spotless, grounds were immaculate, Neil was incredibly responsive to all our questions through the booking process. Here it is 5 years later and it's still a vacation we talk about all the time.

Make sure you take advantage of Marvin and Tessa's local knowledge, you'll see things that the "tourists" never do!
