Great Ocho Rios Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed this property. Clean and aesthetically perfect. Great big TV, comfy bed, beautiful washroom, private balcony, and immediate access to all the amenities in Ocho Rios.
Just stayed here for 10 days and it did not disappoint! Everything was wonderful. The host was fantastic! Would most definitely stay here again. Thank you for everything. My time was perfect.

The apartment was ok and relatively clean. bed was comfortable and the shower was clean. we had warm water to bathe a/c worked, we got 2 bottles of water in the fridge. check in was delayed as we had to await the code to get in from host, who we must say was polite. however my big turn off the towels had hair in them and the pillow cases were lightly soiled. I think whoever does the cleaning should be more thorough. and it was hair in multiple towels. aprt from that no issues

Wonderful place
My family stay here and it was awesome 👌 my kids enjoy themselves. Its easily accessible to restaurants and the beaches, oh my the beach they love the beach and the pool is clean. Walking distance to everything you might need. Thank you for having us. The host was really pleasant and accommodating.
My overall stay was good and I enjoyed my stay. The condo looks exactly as pictured but I did think that it was going to be bigger than it was. I like the area. The host always responded timely when I had a question. The condo was secured with a security guard present 24 hours and gated access. The condo was across the street from Margaritaville, shops, restaurants, and the movies. It was a couple steps from the beach and free beach access was included. The place was in walking distance to local bars, the club, and fruit market. There were a couple of things that I didn’t like about the condo itself which was that although the condo has a small air conditioner in the bedroom and a ceiling fan in the livingroom/kitchen. The temperature in Jamaica was 87 so it was hot in the living room. I think an air conditioner needs be in both areas. I also did not like that there was only one television, which was in the living room and no television in the bedroom. I also didn’t like that although when booking it states that it sleeps 3 people because there is a futon. You will not get bedding for the futon unless you book for 3 people, which was a bummer for me because me and my daughter booked this condo with the exception that one of us would be able to sleep on the futon because we didn’t want to sleep in the bed together. Lastly the curtains up to the door, while they are nice they are sheer and see through. I didn’t like the fact that you could see inside the condo.
I love the beachfront location of Ligtescape! Unit is very clean, exactly as pictured. As a senior traveler its conveniently close to Ocho Rios town centre and tourist attractions. Easy walking distance in 2-5 mins to the beach, a range of casual and fine dining shops and tons of shopping and local street.

Great comfortable place to stay
I stayed at the condo for 7 days, condo was clean and well maintained. Condo owner was responsive and quick throughout my stay. Extremely pleasant. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash set up in the bathroom. Kitchen well set up as well. Housekeeping service is offered, however as it was only me, just took towels at the time. She was also very nice and gracious. Condo is within walking distance of the beach, and restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

Great Location! Some Updates Needed
We stayed at this property from Jan 18-21. Location was absolutely fabulous! Right off the cruise ship pier, walking distance to everything in downtown Ochi. Great restaurants and shopping + amazing beach walking distance.
If you’re looking for somewhere to stay that’s close to everything in Ochi, this is a great unit.
The property itself needs updating. Everything worked perfectly fine. Just some TLC needed since use over time.
Also, it would be a nice touch to have a couple of bottles of water available on arrival. By the time we travelled and got settled, we could have surely used it!
Everton was great to deal with. Process to check in/out was seamless.
Would stay here again with minor updates to the overall unit. But served our needs for the 3 days we were here.

Getaway
I had an absolutely wonderful stay. The apartment was clean and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay.
The location was perfect, with easy access to nearby attractions and transportation. The neighborhood felt very safe.
The host was responsive. They provided clear instructions for check-in and were always available to answer any questions I had during my stay. Their hospitality truly made me feel at home.
It’s the ideal home away from home. I'll definitely be back for another stay in the future!

Great location
The listing is accurate and true. The unit was all we needed. One bedroom, one bath (off the bedroom). Everything was clean and tidy. The property and grounds are very well kept. The location can not be beat. You are within walking distance to everything you need. The property host was great and kept ensuring we had everything we needed. I will be returning!

Centrally Located
Everton and his cleaning lady were very nice and helpful during my stay. The hot water was not working the first night and he was prompt when offering assistance. The biggest problem we had were the ants. The cleaning lady came and cleaned them out on our second day but they persisted. The unit is some what dated but if you are just looking for a place to stay without any bells and whistles or amenities then this is for you.
Place was clean I was very comfortable with my stay and amenities.

Exceed expectations
If Ocho Rios is your destination, this is a must. The property is very secure and there are a slew of restaurants all within walking distance. The owner is very responsive and issues are addressed within minutes of you reaching out. The unit is very clean, and there is nothing I could even think of that I could complain about except that I should have booked a longer vacation. Kudos to property owner for delivering a solid positive experience.
