The North Jamaica Coast region

The Runaway Bay area
Boasting some of the finest beaches of Jamaica, midway between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios, Runaway Bay offers some of the best scuba diving and golf in the Caribbean. There are also long sandy beaches for lazy vacations, along with a two-mile, seaside stretch of absolutely fabulous hotels and laid back-lifestyles.
Runaway Bay is so named because it was once an escape route for runaway slaves. Nearby Discovery Bay was actually first visited by Christopher Columbus during his voyage in 1494, hence its name.
The first native settlers to the island of Jamaica, and the area around Runaway Bay, were the Arawaks. They put up a valiant fight to retain control but the Spanish explorers, who claimed the land for the Queen of Spain, eventually overpowered them
From Quiet relaxation in a secluded sun drenched Jamaican paradise, to taking in all the fun filled possibilities of a Caribbean playground, Whistling Villa is a part of it all.

Guestbook for Whistling Villa Runaway Bay
Hello Osburn Me and my family had a wonderful stay at Whistling villa. The
villa is spacious and nicely laid out with a nice pool. The staff was simply
wonderful and the cooking was superb. We had mostly Jamaican cuisine which
all my family love. Shirley was very helpful and the arrangement to get
supplies from the supermarket that she works at was convenient. I would be
happy to recommend it to my friends and associates.

Hi Osburn
Just want to let you know how much we enjoyed staying in your villa. It was a great place for our large family to spend a week in Jamaica. Everything was just as you told us and as the photos on your website. We really appreciated Evelyn, Ron and Joyce. They were very patient with us and at our right hand all the time. We did spend most days away from the villa, but what a wonderful place to just crash after a big day. We drove from Negril to Port Antonio, and spent time in Ocho Rios most days so did see a lot of the Island.I will recommend your villa to any that may come to Jamaica and need a wonderful place to stay.
Thanks againBarb Lewis and family-Saskatchewan Canada

It was wonderful!!! I read the villa book and found so many stories that date back to the 90's even! The staff was so hospitable... Evelyn & Joyce worked around the clock to meet our every need.
Ive already given information on the villa to my sister.she is planning a trip end of this year and would like to rent it also.
