This was an amazing find! The host was super accommodating to all the requests we had for them, including date of stay changes. The bed is spacious and comfortable, the kitchen does its job adequately with a good fridge and great stationary. The balcony is an excellent place to cool off and people watch or watch the sunset. It’s right in the heart of the strip and the building staff were very nice and made us feel safe. The A/C kept us nice and cool and the showers work great. Would 100% stay again!

Clean, great views, just dated

The condo was just like the pictures, amazing balcony with great views. The ac was definitely struggling to keep the place cool. The building was secure, which was great, but definitely run down. We've learned most of that area of the hip strip was abandoned except for shop owners hassling. Three good beaches in walking distances though and that's why we choose this place. Owner was communicative!

Great Property in Excellent location

Great view overlooking the beach and Hip Strip. Starbucks and ATM right across the street. Great communication from the host. Have stayed here a few times before and enjoyed the experience but this room was nicely updated with comfortable king size mattress and exceeded expectation. Will stay here everytime I visit Mobay if there is availability.

We apologize for the inconvenience, it would have been nice to know of your concerns during your visit. We tried to touch base with you multiple times to no avail. The place is spotless and unfortunately those bugs are common in the Caribbean, however sometimes they do come in, that is why there is bug spray in the unit. My husband was there right before your visit and he said he had no problem with the hot water, however we will have the maintenance people check it out.

Mo Bay getaway

Beautiful Location, but the building is outdated. It reminds me of the worst house on a beautiful street. It would bring down the value of everything around it in the United States. There is so much potential for the building, but apparently nobody cares. I'm guessing it will remain the way it is until someone demolishes it or someone realizes the potential and fixes it.

Staying on the Hip Strip

The property was had great ocean views and a great location on the Hip Strip close to downtown Montego Bay. The building staff were very nice and we felt secure during our visit. The property itself wasn't as clean as we would have expected upon arrival, especially the dishes in the kitchen. Also, we had trouble getting hot water in the shower during the week. Finally, it would have been great o have access to the washer and dryer in the unit (closet is locked). Overall, though, the unit was a great value and we would return.

Hi Jamie, Thanks for choosing our place to stay, thank you for your feedback. We are sorry about the cleanliness and I have addressed the issue with the cleaning people. Thank you for reaching out to us as this is the first time anyone has mentioned a cleanliness issue and we find the situation unacceptable. We will have the hot water looked at. Please note that our listing does not indicate that there is a washer and dryer available. The use of that is restricted for the cleaning people because of historical issues.

Bed bugs in the bed this sucked

No salt & pepper. No Kleenex. No dish soap. No bar soap. No paper towels. The water gave us a loose stool so had to boil the water. All of this should be provided. Bed Bugs got to my girlfriend on the second night.This really set us back. I won't recommend this Dump to anyone.

It is unfortunate that you did not enjoy the apartment, as that is highly unusual. We are sorry that you had so many issues and will take your suggestions into consideration. That being said, we certainly DO NOT have bed bugs. The mattress is ENCASED in not 1 but 2 bed bug protectors, so it is impossible for there to be bed bugs and just to make sure I had the property manager check the mattress, what you are saying is false. Your girlfriend was probably being bitten by mosquitos. You are correct in that there should have been salt and pepper and body soap. I have discussed with the property manager and she will address. There was and is dish soap, you just need to pump the built in dispenser at the sink. You would also note that in my communication with you I indicated that we do not provide paper towels and that you would need to provide your own. Once again we apologize for your experience.

Maintenance Required

Property in urgent need of overall maintenance, particularly the bathroom, the washer and dryer area (washer lid was rusty). The cooking knives in the kitchen need changing, they were dull and useless. Salt and pepper shakers were empty…. Consider investing in black-out curtains for persons who may want to sleep in late and not be disturbed with the rising sun. The electrical socket to the left of the TV was not functioning. You need another patio chair (make it a pair) in addition to the lounge chair. The 2 left burners on the stove were not functional. All of the burners on the stove need changing as they are all rusty.

Fantastic Location

We had a really great stay in this lovely Studio. The location was ideal - right across from Doctor's Cave Beach, and in the middle of the Hip Strip. The listing was accurate, the unit was nicer than we had expected from the photos. The bedroom/sitting area has a lovely, beachy feel to it, and was very clean. We really liked having the sink separate from the bathroom, allowing two people to conduct morning routines at the same time. The kitchen allowed us to prepare breakfast most mornings and enjoy local produce for snacks and a few meals. We spent a few hours most days at the pool, enjoying the beautiful view, and much time on the balcony watching the Montego Bay traffic. We had really great interactions with Nina. Emails were responded to very promptly, and we found the information she gave us about the apartment to be very good. Her restaurant suggestions were helpful, and so was the common sense she shared. I had accidentally not sent an email in a string of communication, creating some confusion over when we planned to check in. Nina was alert to this, and immediately offered assistance . We would recommend this apartment to those looking for a non-resort experience. The self-catering aspect was great for us. We worked with a driver (Ken from Ken's Dream Vacations) to obtain local food. We enjoyed the fruits from the vendor downstairs, and ate lots of local fish, snacks and produce. The convenience store in the building has fresh Jamaican patties delivered each morning (9 a.m.) which we enjoyed when we didn't feel like preparing a meal or going out.

Great location on the Hip Strip right across from the beach with an amazing view.

This studio is exactly as seen in the photos. It is very spacious with a king bed, small kitchen and table. Bathroom had ample space for two people. It’s in a great location right across from the beach and walking distance from restaurants. Nina was very responsive on answering questions and provided a great overview packet of things to do. Check in and out was easy and Nina let us check out later since our flight was at night. WiFi was good and the balcony was perfect for relaxing and people watching. The building itself looks a bit run down but you aren’t in a resort so wasn’t expecting new. The only reason I docked the place was the hot water in the shower only lasted a few minutes before getting cold. It would get hot again for 2 minutes then cold etc. The second reason is the noise on the hip strip is very loud throughout the night. The people on the street talking sound like they are in your room and cars honking at 3 am can keep a light sleeper up. Sound proof balcony doors would help. I guess that’s the price you pay for the location and view! I would stay here again.

Great Location and amazing view! Busy/tourist area.

Loved the location. Right across from Dr. Cave. Locals can get aggressive wanting ypoi toshop in their store or to buy Ganja. Sometimes they would walk along side of us and woulsnt take no for an answer. The air conditioning was not cool enough. The apartment was rather warm. We were there for Sumfest so went to sleep late. There were very loud motorcycles riding by after 3AM. The pillows in the apartment need changing and thebed was too hard. There was no lamp in sleeping area.

Thanks for your feedback. The lamps that were on order have arrived and we have replaced the pillows. The A/C is central in the building and they are working on upgrading that. Unfortunately we can't control the street vendors or noise. Hopefully you enjoyed your visit and Sumfest.
