STAY AWAY
When we arrived at the property there was no power. We reported this to Melissa and she suggested we get some candles. That was the first red flag. She offered a refund and stated she would return it via Vrbo. So we went to a hotel to check in for the night. While at the hotel we called Vrbo and was told no refund is being given by Melissa we contacted her with no response. Around midnight we get a call from Milo the guardsman and says we have power you can come back. We had already payed for a night at another hotel so that was frustrating. The next day when we arrived to the villa the AC wasn’t working and there were ants everywhere. We tried to contact Melissa once again but she didn’t respond. Worst experience ever. I would stay far away from this villa and any of the other 2 she has on property as they are not well maintained and the pictures are old and represent what the property used to look like.

We absolutely loved staying at the Eden Sands Villa!!! The owners were super-friendly, we grew to love the staff like family and the beachfront location is pure Heaven. We will definitely be back to Jamaica and we can't imagine finding a better place to kick back and enjoy the beauty of the Land of Wood and Water!

Really great place/ secluded
It was a surprise how nice the property was once you passed the gate. Also, it’s worth every penny with having Ms Diane and Milo available. She can cook, and he knows every secret on where to go to get what you want. I will definitely stay at this place again. Wonderful having a verandah and ocean right outside the door.

A rejuvenating weekend.....
Melissa was waiting for us when we arrived and Diana and Natasha got food on the table right on time. Everyone made us, including my 96 year old Mom, feel welcome. As we were leaving, my Mom asked, ‘When can we come back?’ Milo the groundskeeper helped us get Mom into the water and Attitude, the property dog came to the villa to tell her bye. It was a wonderful change of scenery and we felt safe.

Location & Miss B!
What a delight! I sigh just thinking of it... The hustle and bustle of Ocho Rios is left behind, once the security gates close on your little piece of paradise! The cutest little bungalow with everything you need, and the best part... Miss B! Short for Barbara! She is there, quietly in the background, to make sure your stay is perfect! From having a meal waiting for you upon arrival, to her quiet presence and tidying up... you feel a sense of calm surrounding your stay. We miss her still! This property is literally the closest private residence to town, while still having your own private beach... now that is a holiday at its best! You can walk to everything, we never felt unsafe, everyone we spoke to were very friendly and helpful. But like any tourist in any country, you need to be mindful of your situation and surroundings. We would not hesitate to return, and have nothing but amazing memories of our stay. Melissa, the property owner, was great to work with, she's a local real estate agent, so that elevates her professionalism and knowledge of the area, and we appreciated it!

wonderful, relaxing, beautiful, private
Melissa & Nathan, Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful beachfront villa in Ocho Rios. This private setting was ideal for our family's much needed vacation. The house was island style- prefect with 2 roomy bedrooms with their own bathrooms. The living space and deck were prefect for relaxing. I loved watching the breeze come through the open windows- moving the sheers, quite lovely! Everything was kept fresh and clean daily in the villa by Barbara. The kitchen had all that we needed to cook full meals and the grocery store was a short walk from the villa (we liked the General food market best). Fresh fish from the docks is a must- with both Barbara and her daughter (Christine) helping prepare two fabulous evening dinners with red snapper. Barbara cooked us 3 breakfast meals as well (dont miss out on the traditional Jamaican salt fish & ackee that she prepares). Barbara the housekeeper was amazing- I can't say enough about her. She really made our stay enjoyable. Milo the groundskeeper was incredibly friendly and helpful as well -Bringing us Ackee and vegetables to enjoy during our stay. He kept watch at night as well, although the villa and grounds always felt safe. The beach right in front of the villa was clean and the water refreshing. Perfect for snorkeling (not the greatest though) and swimming. The villa comes equipped with snorkel gear, beach towels, floaties, a paddle board and 2 person kayak. Amazing! If you like golf- definitely try Sandals Ocho Rios which is 15minute drive; it is worth it. Our favorite day trip was to the BLUE HOLE (about 20-minute drive)- go early (arrive at 830-9am) to avoid the crowds and get the best tour guides. We had an amazing time walking up the falls and then jumping/swinging/diving and swimming down them (Jerome and TJ were the best guides!). I will definitely be returning! Highly recommend.
