About this property

Palm Trees is an imposing hillside villa/guest house set in its own grounds on the gated Anchor Estate on Jamaica’s South Coast. It is about 200 feet above sea level and 400 yards from the beach. The views are amazing and there is normally a relaxing breeze. All the rooms have high ‘cathedral ceilings’ and fans. The pool is very private as it is within the villa. Most guests have loved Palm Trees and many guests say they will return.

Up a steep drive, but a great holiday villa.

The rooms and pool are very good. Getting back down the steep and long drive during hours of darkness is difficult.

Beautiful view and caring hosts

This home has the most spectacular view!!! Evening sunsets are second to none. We loved watching sunset and having Daisy make us breakfast. Some updating of amenities needed ( ac and shower). Hosts made sure we had everything we needed. We enjoyed day trips to Negril and Black River.

Do not stay here!

I paid in full and booked this property a week before check-in for 3 of my employees who were working on a retreat nearby. When we arrived, the house was not ready, not clean, beds not made etc. The owners claimed that they never got a confirmation from VRBO, and didn’t know we were coming. The pool had no water in it, the house was filled with mosquitoes, and the home owners were apathetic about our issues. On one evening, my team arrived home for the night, and the homeowner was passed out, drunk, outside the entrance to our part of the property. As we needed rooms for the team I was not able to cancel the booking and relocate them. I spoke to the homeowners about a partial refund, and again, was met with apathy and blame on my part that I did not reach out to them. As I paid in full and received a confirmation, I do not feel that I should have had to reach out to the homeowners to let them know we were coming. I have again tried to speak to them about a partial refund, but was told over the phone to “piss off.” It’s a shame that I am unable to add photos to this review, but I am happy to provide them via email to anyone here looking for proof. Please do not book here unless you like empty pools, dirty rooms, drunk hosts, and the potential for dengue fever.

Beautiful Palm Trees!

We adored the property, and we really loved Bernard and Daisy! Truly lovely host and hostess. Be aware of very narrow, curvy roads to the property - it will take you over an hour from the Montego Bay airport, and that’s with no traffic. Also, make sure that you have the Skan’s telephone number so they can let you into the property; the VRBO site isn’t very clear on the check-in process, and Internet is very spotty. But now that we are armed with the process, we will definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by Bernard and Daisy Skan

In 1999 I, Bernard an Englishman met Daisy who was born in Jamaica. We were married in 2000 and came to Jamaica in 2004 when we fist saw Palm Trees. We decided to buy and complete the building.In 2009 we doubled the size of the villa to enable us to be on site to maintain the pool, fix any little problems that may occur and to generally maintain and keep the place clean. Daisy is an excellent cook and housekeeper and I am fairly competent at DIY, plumbing, electrical repairs, building and gardening.
