Sorry for the late review...was browsing and saw a negative review which prompted my reply. I stayed at the apt for 2 weeks in May last year and i honestly didnt have a problem. Annette is wonderful and extremely polite and helpful nothing is too much trouble for her. The apt itself is clean and has everything you need. Communication with Jackie is excellent and she goes out of her way to make sure your stay is exactly how you want it. We had a fantastic 2 weeks extremely memorable and i would stay there again. Ideal location and all amneties available. What more can i say ....i loved it , it was perfect! am sorry to disagree with the negative responder but i did not see it how u did! Ive been to jamaica many times and i thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. Beautiful place and beautiful people. Thanx Jackie Response: Thank you, We appreciate such positive feedback |

We stayed in apartment 43c Turtle Towers for 2 weeks - although the housekeeper was lovely we were very disappointed with the apartment. The bathroom and kitchen were both of very poor standard... more |

Have been very busy, but wanted to stop and tell you thank you so much for allowing me to rent your property. Everything was GREAT! Much need get-away, perfect location, everything we needed to cook with and outstanding service from Annette.
Again Thanks for everything. I will remember you when clients inquire about rentals rather than hotels.

thanks again.

Hi Jacquie,
We had a wonderful stay in Jamaica. The place was wonderful. Annette was wonderful and very helpful. There was a few ladies that we had met while wew were in Jamaica that were very interested in you Jamaican Home, so I took them in to show them the place I hope that you did not mind that I did that. I gave a lot of people your web site too. Annette was the best "home friend" (I don't like to call her the maid) ever, she was an angel. There is a few of us coming back to Jamaica for a week in late april or early May and I was wondering how much the condo is for a week if it is available the time the we go? thank you!
Regards

I was a bit apprehensive to book online directly as this was my first time,
however i had solid communication from the owner before during and after my trip
which eased my anxiety. Had a good flight and was ready to see my home away from
home for the next two weeks but this was the first time going to Jamaica for my
friends, and i must say the pictures do not do this place justice. Its bright
airy beautiful and in excellent condition. Beautiful views and smack bang in the
middle of everything so we didnt have to pay for cabs to get around which was a
plus. The Beach was less than 5 minutes away, many food shops and bars to grab a
bite and great clubs a stone throw away. To our surprise there was a house
cleaner which stopped the arguements over the dishes (lol) and cable which was
nice for chilling in the evening. The kitchen was very clean and had all
amenities for us to cook if we chose to (which of course we didnt). The
apartment was secure and had security at the front gate and front desk which
made us feel safe. We visited Dunns River and Mystic Mountain which is a MUST
for anyone in the area, we went tubing and quad biking and again everything
seemed to be quite near which was perfect. Overall we had the time of our lifes
and cant wait to go back. My friends were so happy that i got it right and im
happy they had an excellent time so thank you sooooooooo much for renting us
your apartment and we will definitely be back in the VERY near future. For
ANYONE looking to go to Jamaica you will miss out if you do not book this
luxurious apartment!!!!!
Many Thanks,
Vashti-iona Beckford
