The pictures are extremely out dated. The owner was nice but the property did not live up to the expectations. Please only consider this most recent review because I am not even sure how this property has such a high rating with the experience we had. Out of the 4 days we stayed, we only had warm water 1 of those days. The water pressure is bad too, the shower and sinks come out as dribbles which makes it extremely difficult to shower especially when the water is already cold. There are no light bulbs in many areas of the house. There are no paper towels provided and the kitchen and dining area was infested with ants so don’t even think you will be able to cook or leave food on the counter or dining room table, you will find hundreds of ants in your food within a matter of 20 minutes. No wash cloths or body wash/ soap are provided just towels. The AC units shut off after about 10 minutes of running so you will have to constantly turn them back on. In one of the bedrooms specifically, it does not work at all making it unbearable to be in there because of the heat. This may have been a good place to stay a couple of years ago but I can assure you, it was not a pleasant stay for me and my family. We will be getting a resort next time. Owner is kind but it doesn’t make up for the conditions of the home. Please beware.

Good Option, Great People, Short stay

We only stayed one night as we waited for more of our party to come in and go to a resort. Were very happy with the pick up service. The driver even took us to the market for some groceries. It was a great way to see culture off of a resort. Couple things that may have been nice, a bottle or two of water could be provided, as we can't drink the local water. Some throw blankets, the blankets provided were more like "sheets." Some things in the kitchen were missing, knife to cut vegetable, wash rag, hand towels. The pictures are a bit out dated. The back yard did not have the patio chairs and relaxing clean area as shown in the pictures. The bedding was not the same, it was just white sheets (duvet with no insert). This was a nice place, and a good value, a couple items would have just made it that much better.

The best 50th birthday celebration

We had an incredible time from start to finish. Mr. Lloyd was very welcoming and attentive to all of our needs from the time we booked the villa. We went to Jamaica to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday. I had asked to have decorations to surprise her when we arrived. That was done. We arrived prior to the check-in time.. Mr. Lloyd allowed us to drop our luggage(which he personally lugged up the stairs ) off at the villa, and begin our Jamaican vacation. He drove us to a popular spot for take out. Then, the next day we met Mr. Claude the driver. He took to every place we wanted to go. He gave us so much information about his beautiful country and the wonderful people who live there. Mr. Claude was polite, funny, and paid close attention to our every need. He even picked up a surprise birthday cake, and brought it to the house for us. There is no one better to navigate the tricky streets of Montego Bay. He was also our photographer so that we could capture so many of our precious moments without having to do selfies. Everyone affiliated with this property went above and beyond to make sure for six days Jamaica felt like it was our home. I can't thank you all enough. We will definitely be back. And we will not be staying anywhere else. I just realized I didn't even mention the beautiful property. There were amazing fruit trees on the grounds. The house has giant ceilings, and the lighting is amazing to take beautiful pictures. You can see breathtaking mountains scenes from the porch. I don't want to forget one detail.

We really enjoyed our stay

The house was clean and inviting. Loved the large open space of the living room, dining room and kitchen combo. It provided a nice relaxing gathering space for our family of 7. The outdoor space with a large veranda in the front and patio in the back was also comfortable. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would book it again.

I was there on a short business trip. The location is great. not too far away from the Hip Street, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet and embrace the view of the lovely landscaped yard,..and the beautiful view from the porch. The iwner, Mr Simpson was an excellent host. The property is very well secured..I felt safe being there. I will definitely go back!

Awesome assistance ...

We just arrived from Paradise Palms Villa in Montego Bay where we stayed 8 days from July 12th to 20th. Very nice and clean house with great view from the balcony where you can watch spectacular sunsets … This villa is located only few minutes from the airport (but very quiet) and many restaurants … I would like to mention the amazing assistance that we received from Mr. Claude (Property Manager) and Teresa (Housekeeper) … These people are very dedicated to make your stay comfortable and are good ambassadors of the Jamaican culture. I recommend this property without hesitation … Richard Fournier (Canada)

Beautiful home close to the airport

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to stay here long, just one day. But for a group of 8 of us, the home provided everything we needed and Mr. Clyde was MORE THAN accommodating as a host. We truly appreciated all of his help. The home was clean, safe with plenty of space for our guests. Would recommend to small groups or families on a budget.

Absolutely amazing...

I’m late writing this review but had to share how amazing my experience was at Paradise Palms Villa in November. I spent 12 days and loved every minute of my stay...the pictures advertising the villa is exactly what you get...it is super spacious, clean, air conditioning in the bedrooms and very cozy. The area is great and the Villa is located a short drive from the Hipstrip which, has all the attractions....the beaches and places to dine. The customer service received from Mr Lloyd Campbell and his team was excellent. I will definitely be visiting again and spreading the word.

Happy customers!!!

Paradise Palms Jamaica Villa is an amazing place to stay, the owners are very helpful and friendly. Once we arrived at the Villa the manager and the housekeeper was there to greet my fiancé and I. They showed us around this beautiful villa that we were very pleased with. The villa has a lot of space to move around the master bedroom is gorgeous and spacious. There is rooms with connecting bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped pots, pans, plates cutlery, toaster, kettle even a blender for your smoothies. A great fridge and cooker simple to use. Had air conditioning as well as fans. The internet was perfect didn’t fail at no time at all. cable tv too. A book corner for quiet time. The front veranda is spacious enough for family gatherings and the back veranda is just as spacious. The manager Claude called us daily to see if we were ok or need anything. The housekeeper were friendly and cleaned very well. Right outside is frequent taxis so it easy to get one. A peaceful and quiet area. Felt very safe as it was a gated area, but felt at ease there in general. Will definitely book again. Thank you to the owners for this great place to spend a vacation.
