Family and 50th Birthday celebration
Cleveland our driver, security and tour guide for the week was waiting for us in plain site as we arrived at the Montego Bay airport. We stopped on our way to the house for a rum punch and a bit of relaxing. The house was stunning! The gate was opened and we backed right down to reveal our stunning place that would be home for the next week. The staff was waiting to great and assist us out of the van. Samantha, Nigel and of course Tony were all there with huge smiles. Their attention to details we didn’t even know we needed is what set them above any bar that may have been set. The house was immaculate and Samantha really went out of her way thinking of us and our kids (15,15,13,10) all the time. Nigel, acted as “butler”, security, running trainer, and get it done guy. He found someone to bring jet skis right to the dock at the house. He took a few of us to the local market (walking)to do some shopping for Tony. He was waiting for use everyday upon our return with AMAZING piña colada’s that were non alcoholic with a bottle of rum for the adults. The kitchen…. Ordering only local fare, Tony certainly did offer his absolute best. From curried goat, to conch civiché, to ackee and saltfish and of course his famous french toast, our mouths and bodies were nourished with love. The 50 birthday party was above and beyond. ❤️ The ability to seamlessly go from the pool to canon ball into the ocean, perfection. Snorkeling all the time right under the deck was pure magic.

Nine Adults nailed relaxation
We had a relaxing week at Portside Villa- the rental process was quite simple. The pictures you see on line were taken at a time that things were "fresh." The outside could use some repairs to the deck, electricity (small shock to foot coming up stairs), and pool concrete. Seats to kayaks dry rotted; don't hold you up. At times water lacking in property that was resolved when brought to their attention. Would recommend improvement in how chef Tony goes about planning meals for the week. Suggest a book of recipes/ingredients and pictures so guest could select choices. Stressful to keep going back to guests needing items. When shopping should be only picking up items guests will need- not one gallon of cooking oil (really? we were just there for 4 more days; asked him to put back). Food at grocery store expensive in comparison to US. Samantha was so sweet, kept place in order. Nigel most helpful in all of his duties. House could use more activities/games to play as many places closed due to slow season. The large jengo set, pool table and pool certainly were used. Hope our suggestions are taken seriously to improve guest experiences in the future.

Best vacation ever! Chef Tony’s food is a god send. We went to local restaurants and Chef Tony’s food was better than all of them. The staff made sure we were safe, took care of us and made us feel at home.

We had an amazing time, the home was beautiful. The staff were the best, Tony the chef was amazing. Took us along to the market to shop for groceries, explained everything in detail, catered to everyone’s tastes and needs. He was amazing. Sam the housekeeper was on top of everything. We never had to ask, she just anticipated all our needs. Nigil the butler was so attentive to our every need, made the surprise proposal magical. Everything was perfect from day one. Exceptional service, exceptional food. They really make you feel welcome! The view from the home is spectacular. We will be returning soon!

Family vacay
We booked a week for a family vacation—mom, 4 adult children (30s), 3 spouses/partners and a 3-year old grandson. House was lovely and clean. Chef was excellent; butler and maid were both very good. Manager wasn’t as pleasant and never showed up at all. Beach is nearby but gated and locked so can’t go without an escort. Perfect for a lazy week in the sun. Main road is very close to the house so trucks & noise all day and night. The public beach is nearby ($20 fee) and had a very loud P A system all day Friday that was quite obnoxious. Other days it wasn’t a bother. No walking out of the house without an escort limited us to staying exclusively on premises unless you book an excursion or walk to market w/ the chef or butler.

Special birthday trip
Everything at the property was lovely! The staff was amazing, courteous, helpful and very accommodating. There was plenty of room for all 10 of us. The only small drawback was the walk to the beach - though very close, it was along a main road with lots of traffic. But it didn't detract from a wonderful stay.

Best Birthday Trip Ever
Me and my group of 9 had a wonderful experience at this property. The staff was phenomenal and made sure every need we had was met above and beyond. The food was sensational! They made my birthday so special and took the time to make sure we were having a wonderful time. Monique, Negel, and our chef Moya were everything we could have asked for and more. I will absolutely be returning.

Portside Villa - Family Vacation
The property itself and the ocean view was spectacular, however the location on the main road was very noisy due to the constant heavy traffic, which made it difficult to sleep at nights. The staff was exceptional and went above and beyond what was expected of them to ensure our stay was pleasurable. They get a 5+ star rating for their phenomenal and professional service. Monique was on top of keeping the house very clean and ensured that we had everything we needed. Negell was outstanding, especially on the Kayak rides. He was up at the crack of dawn and was always available to fulfill our every requests. Chef Tony, who we affectionately called the singing chef, prepared authentic Jamaican cuisine every day. The staff beautifully decorated the Villa, and served up a sit-down, three course meal prepared by Chef Tony for a birthday celebration. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Property is well managed. The members went above and beyond. Enjoyed kayaking, food was great, location ideal. Activities outside some what expensive especially for larger group. Possibly booking on your own would be cheaper.
