Main Description
Set on 2.5 acres of private Jamaican hillside overlooking Ocho Rios, Barbary provides you with the seclusion of a private estate within minutes drive of the sights and attractions of Ocho Rios and Jamaica’s north shore. Villa Barbary sits at the very top of the hill overlooking Ocho Rios and St. Ann's Bay - to the north you find the turquoise Caribbean Sea...to the east and west the property is fully tree'd...but not so much that you can't look east along the coast for some distance.

The Villa was designed around an indoor open atrium and has been decorated with authentic Jamaican art...from the shops and markets in Ocho Rios. There is a pond and waterfall in the front yard where the water cascades off of a high old coral outcropping filled with tropical plants and flowers. The private pool is on the east side of the property...a great place to talk, read, sleep, and take a dip on a hot summer (or winter) day. Jamaica's climate doesn't vary much from season to season - high's in the 80's with sun and an occassional shower to make the tropical plants glisten.

Pick limes for your cola, grapefruit for breakfast, or ackee for an authentic Jamaican meal all from trees on the grounds of Barbary. Watch the cruise ships from the front veranda as they come and go from the harbor - while drinking a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, enjoy a game of cards or a board game in the game room, lounge in the sun room after a swim in the pool, watch movies from the movie library, curl up on the living room couch and read books from the villa library, or just sit back and enjoy the fabulous view of Ocho Rios by day or by night.

The Villa employs a cook (Rosetta), housekeeper (Lorraine), gardener (George), and night time security (as required by Jamaican law)(another George). Rosetta, Lorraine, and both Georges will work to make your stay one of fun, sun and a little pampering! Our staff have been with the villa for years and can give you the history of the villa and the wonderful island of Jamaica.
