About this property

The Arbor Retreat

Experience the joys of Boston in this private guest suite in the quiet, tree-lined neighborhood of Jamaica Hills, half a mile from Faulkner Hospital. Cozy up around the fire pit in the spacious yard, stroll through the nearly 300 acres of the Arboretum (just one block away!), and explore downtown JP with its diverse restaurants and bars, shops, and farmers markets. You can easily get around the city from the bus and MBTA hub at Forest Hills (one mile away) or hop on the nearby bike path.

Quaint and cozy getaway only minutes from the city of Boston!
My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights. We loved the property and ease of the check-in process! The property was clean and cozy, with tea and coffee provided (as well as other utensils if you wished to cook). The owners left a "guestbook guide" that had great recommendations for restaurants and things to do around Jamaica Plain. This property is about 5-10 minutes from hot spots in downtown Boston (e.g Fenway). We highly recommend this location and would love to stay again in the future!

Quiet Cozy Retreat
The Arbor Retreat was a lovely little oasis in a pretty and quiet neighborhood, with easy access by car to downtown Jamaica Plain. The hosts were attentive to details, providing ample supplies for tea and coffee making along with basic cooking items like salt, pepper and oil. The WiFi worked beautifully, and HBO Max and Netflix access provided for ample in unit entertainment. Our only disappointment was that the bed was a full/double size rather than the advertised queen size.
