10s across the board!

I have done a few villas in Jamaica and they never disappoint. My family really enjoy their stay at this specific facility. Miguel was our chef.... he was simply amazing! His personality, his interactions, and most of all his food were everything that I would have expected it to be. I had an incident that Ralph took care of without hesitation. If there wasn't so many places for me to stay in Jamaica, I would definitely come back to this house again! We even got massages by the recommended masseuse for this villa.

Royal Hospitality!!

We were a family of 5 traveling to Jamaica for the first time. We were very hesitant with the travel warnings and especially because we were with our 2 beautiful daughters. Upon arrival at the airport we met Sir Baker! He is the most charismatic person we have ever met! He was a wealth of knowledge when it came to restaurants, excursions, museums, and the history of Jamaica. No matter where we went on the island "EVERYONE" knew Sir Baker! It was like having your own personal security guard. We felt so safe with him that our daughters got to enjoy some of the nightlife on their own. By the time we left our daughters cried when he said goodbye. Sir Baker definitely made our trip the best ever! The property was so meticulously maintained inside and out. The pictures are exactly as advertised and bigger in person. Our daughters loved the home especially because everyone could have their own space to hang out from the family room with games, to the tennis courts. Mom and dad enjoyed quite tv time in our own master suite with separate sitting room and a beautiful balcony to watch spectacular sunsets! The host- Mr Ralph was very attentive and so responsive no matter what time. He was welcoming and made us feel so special. We celebrated my husband's 60th birthday and Mr Ralph had the house decorated with balloons and a cake, He is super thoughtful. Exceptional hospitality! Miss Mitchelle, and Miss Corieta were also amazing, always made sure we had clean towels and super kind.

Shimmering Waters

Everything about this trip was wonderful! The property was beautiful and Ralph, the owner/host, did not steer us wrong. Every recommendation was on point. Our driver, Sir Baker, was fantastic and was also an amazing resource.

About the host

Hosted by Ralph Williams

"I AM PROUD TO BE JAMAICAN, " "I am a private host." "Being Born and Raised in rural Jamaica was the best and the most unforgettable." "Out of Many One People" is Jamaica's motto. The name "Jamaica" is derived from the original Taino Indian word: "Xaymaca", meaning "land of wood and water." Jamaica is a very beautiful and mountainous country known worldwide largely for music and athletics. A truly remarkable country despite its small size! At Shimmering Waters, our Team of service providers are all optional, I do not take a commission for any services. The independent service providers currently are: The Driver, The Chef, The Masseuse, Boating/Fishing & Yoga Instructor. All independent, but in close communication engaging our approved service providers rather than those outside of this Team, fosters you better service and security. I provide housekeeping, yard care and pool care as part of your property rental fee on VRBO. We all work as a team, but more like a family to serve you, for which we take great pleasure! I welcome you to share with me a little about yourselves. Are you a family or a group of friends? Where you are from? Share only if you like. In this way I may be better able to serve you as your Host. Thank you for reading! I am looking very forward to serving you! Ralph! Owner and Your Host. Shimmering Waters
