Best view in Jamaica. Clean, private accommodations and unlimited peaceful vibes. Ease the mind, body and spirit in the tranquility of a tropical paradise. Spectacular sunrises and unforgettable sunsets. Undeveloped and uncrowded. Experience the real Jamaica – country style. Do what you want, when you want and leave your watch at home. You’re on “Jamaican Time” now. Excellent home base for exploring all of the natural wonders of Portland Parish.
High ceilings. Breezy. Two full beds (sleeps 4) with covered balcony, full bath (with solar hot water), full-size refrigerator, table. chairs, deck chairs, hammock, drip coffee maker, electric tea kettle, plates, cups bowls & utensils. 5 minute car ride to beach or 10 minute walk. General store at bottom of hill. Plenty of places to eat and drink including world famous Boston Beach Jerk Center.

Watch awesome sunrises and moonrises over the Caribbean from the balcony or from your bed or from the pool or pool deck. Unlimited IRIE vibes with the laid-back locals of Boston. Must be a dog lover.

One of a kind
Stunning location with breathtaking views. Our suite featured everything we needed, best thing is the hammock on the balcony. If you don't feel like driving down the hill to the beach, just relax in the pool with a view of the whole valley. John went out of his way to make our stay memorable - and it was! Thanks

In it itself my stay was a bit of an adventure and it is important to remember just how exactly to get back up the hill after leaving the property. The hills are steep and not recommend for those who lack strength and stamina. I wouldn’t recommend the property for anyone who isn’t physically fit. The property owner was very approachable and level headed. The pool was clean and well regulated. The WiFi worked as intended. If you are an avid photographer the views taken from above Port Antonio were phenomenal. I think I might revisit in the near future as this place is a hidden gem.

Ridiculous driveway
This property is up a very steep switchback hill and then you go down a Cliffside driveway where you then have to get turned around to leave. I don't know if we would have made it out of there if we hadn't had a clearance 4 wheel drive vehicle. The manager kindly went out and picked up dinner for us and we had some breakfast food with us as we didn't want to do that trip more than once. We had booked and paid for three nights and cut our losses and left after one.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Long drive up a bumpy narrow road to a dirty bed and pool. Greeted by 3/4 dogs biting at my ankles. No one came to greet me even though the dogs were barking. Bed smells really bad even after airing out the room for 2 hours.

Amazing stay at John's place!
From up Boston's hill, gorgeous view with roof pool, perfect place to chill and close to any Portland leisures,
Apartments are recent, well equipped and Jason, manager of the place, runs the place perfectly,
Strongly recommended!
