Goblin Hill Villas at San San Reviews

Description

In Portland, Jamaica sits a place where the Blue Mountains meet the Caribbean sea, where coves and sun-drenched beaches beckon, rare hummingbirds dart among the lush tropical flowers, and the sound of Jamaican crickets lulls you to sleep.​

This is Port Antonio, where Goblin Hill Villas at San San Bay sits on twelve acres of lawns and gardens, overlooking sparkling Jamaican white sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean water.

One of the most unspoiled corners of Jamaica, Port Antonio is an insider's glimpse into the Caribbean of yesteryear. In its heart, Goblin Hill's villa vacation lifestyle offers the most potent relaxation around.

Goblin Hill's villas, each with one or two air-conditioned bedrooms, nestle together on a lush green hillside overlooking the turquoise waters of San San Bay.

The spacious villas open onto wide expanses of lawns and gardens. All bedrooms have private bathrooms, air-conditioning and ceiling fans. All are self-contained, with fully equipped kitchens, living and dining rooms, and a wide covered terrace or balcony with its own view over the Bay.

Facilities include a swimming pool and two tennis courts. We currently propose only a limited number of villas with cable service and on request only. Also a cable TV is installed in the Library for our guests' use.

Our free WIFI cloud allows our guests an easy connection to the Internet.

A white-sand beach protected by a coral reef and perfect for snorkelling is a ten-minute walk away. A nature trail around the grounds leads you through a miniature rain forest and over rolling lawns. A reading room, the Hummingbird Terrace and a Tree Bar wrapped around an ancient ficus tree complete the picture of a relaxed vacation resort.

Location and Contact

Location

• Goblin Hill is located in the heart of the most beautiful scenery in Jamaica. Nearby are beaches, mountains, waterfalls, caves, rain forests and rafting to explore. With a car you can enjoy them at your own pace but there are drivers in Port Antonio who are on call, and will be available to take you on excursions, or meet your flight if you prefer not to drive.
• Island Car Rentals, the oldest and largest of the car rental companies in Jamaica operates out of both Kingston and Montego Bay airports. We have arranged a package with them for our guests, which includes a complimentary driver to meet you at either airport and drive you over in your rental car, if you choose to rent. (Another driver and car accompanies your car, to bring your driver back to the airport). If you wish a transfer only, this can be made with Island, or with the local drivers who operate from Port Antonio.
• We will be happy to inform you of the relevant costs. Kingston's airport is about two and a half hours drive from Port Antonio. Montego Bay airport is four hours drive from Port Antonio. The maps below have illustrated the transfer routes from Kingston and from Montego Bay. Below is a slide show of scenery on the way.
• ​Airplane or helicopter charters are also available to Port Antonio from Kingston (20
• minutes) or Montego Bay (40 minutes).
• - From the airports​:
• Jamaica has two international airports, Norman Manley from Kingston, and Sangster in Montego Bay. Norman Manley is more convenient. There are two alternative routes. One from the airport going east, and the other going north across the island, then east along the coast.
• ==>From Norman Manley International Going East:
• At the end of the Palisadoes road from the airport, at the roundabout go right eastward toward Morant Bay. The first hour of the journey is through predominantly dry terrain, as this part of the coast is in the rain shadow of the Blue Mountains. However, after Morant Point the landscape becomes increasingly green. When you reach San San, you will find yourself in a lush paradise.
• Travel time: about two and a half hours.
• ​
• ==>From Norman Manley International going north through Kingston and then east along the coast:
• At the end of the Palisadoes road, we go left at the round about. Going through Kingston, it is recommended to have a driver or guide who knows how to navigate through the city, to Constant Spring and along the Junction road which follows a winding river with bamboo covered hillsides. Once on the coast the road is superb, having been recently completed and offering views of the Blue Mountains, rivers, and coastline. This is a very scenic route
• Travel time: a little over two and a half hours
• 
• ==>From Sangster International Airport:
• Traveling from Sangster International, we go east along the north coast from Montego Bay, though Falmouth, Ocho Rios, Tower Isle, Oracabessa, all well known tourist towns.
• We recommend you take a full day for this route due to the distance. A good place to stop for lunch is at Scotchies and there are two main attractions in Ocho Rios. Dunn's River Falls, and Dolphin Cove.
• Travel time: between four and a half to six hours
