A charming coastal town, steeped in rich history

  Great location for a low profile vacation. It has a beach at the cliff side that is swimmable. Great for snorkeling and other sports. Loved the sound of nature, over... read more the usual honking of cars and active construction. Felt safe while we were there. Host responded to our questions promptly and the housekeeper and grounds man were polite helpful. Will be booking this villa again.

  This was my first visit to Jamaica and I wanted to avoid the typical tourist experience as much as possible. I think Golden View villa in Oracabessa allowed a closer... read more touch to Jamaican culture than a visitor would get in more prominent tourist towns. The staff was friendly and competent. The villa was a large space well kept. The grounds were beautiful with a great view of the Caribbean. It is not, however, especially set up for the elderly or disabled. The stairs down to the ocean were frightening for this old man. In all I had a great time and would certainly consider a return visit. Many thanks to Steven and his great staff.

  Awesome place. The water was clear and beautiful. The people were friendly and helpful

  This house is great! It was a perfect location for our little family. Being right on the water and being able to walk right down and jump in was perfect.... read more It is an open air house so there’s only AC in the bedrooms just keep in mind. But it’s great. The kitchen has just what you need for some simple homemade meals. The host is super responsive and gave great recommendations. The location is a little hard to find but once you find it, it’s fine. The security gate at the front makes it feel super safe. It’s like a little oasis! Definitely recommend.

  Steven's place was as expected. It was a very convenient location for me; I was close to my family who still lives in Oracabessa. The place is very spacious and... read more I quite liked the easy access to the sea; a welcome change from always using a pool. Steven and his team were always very accommodating and responsive. Would definitely recommend his place to future guests.

  The house was great and the host was super responsive. We loved our time there any world come back again.

  The place was great! Views were amazing. Hosts were very accommodating and friendly.The only downside was no a/c in living room but we were always outside so it did not... read more bother us very much.

  Before I booked my reservation i literally read every review on this property and let me be the one to tell you that EVERYTHING that was said and described was... read more true. This truly is a gem. I was incredibly comfortable here and did not want to leave. Waking up to the ocean view was surreal, and the amount of produce trees on the property was heaven sent! If you are interested in having some traditional meals pay the housekeeper her fee, trust me its worth it because she can definitely cook! She made two breakfasts and one dinner for us which was inclusive of callaloo and fried dumplings, breadfruit and saltfish, and oxtails with rice and peas. The complimentary welcome care package in the fridge was perfect right down to the mangos! The space itself was incredible, looks just like the pictures no scam! This is real people. The mosquitoes come with the island so just be sure to keep your windows shut or close the connecting door into the rooms so they won't come in. The backyard and ocean was incredible. We explored the grounds, got into the water and spent some time in the cove, and also watched the sunset. I could do on and on about my stay here but i fear no one would read it because it would be too long. Just know your search stops here...BOOK IT! We are definitely coming back.

  It was a clean and comfortable place for our family. There were thoughtful touches at check in like bottles of water, red stripe and plantain chips. Would recommend and stay... read more again!

  ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL property. My family and I stayed in 3 different locations in Jamaica for this trip. While the 3 BnBs were nice, Steven’s place was by far the best... read more of the 3. couldn’t have been more happier with this decision for our stay. A true gem with the ocean being the back yard snorkeling and paddle boarding was a splash. The house was clean and comfortable we felt very secure.

  Our 3-day stay here was amazing. If you're a water lover and enjoy snorkeling in the clear, warm waters, this is the place to come to. It was perfect for... read more our family of 3 boys. The sea is literally at the end of the garden and it is a short walk down to the cove.
Steven's home is comfortable and had the amenities we needed. The house has hot water and great water pressure.. I also liked the fact it was secure in a complex, with a remote controlled gate and night guard.
The location and the lovely cove and access to the sea makes this a place I would most definitely return to again.

  We had a terrific time at Steven's place and even extended our stay. We had everything we needed and we appreciated the thoughtful touches. The waterfront is exceptionally beautiful, we... read more spent a lot of time in the water. The sunsets here were absolutely breathtaking and rival the famous ones negril. bring your camera , you are in for a treat!

  This place is absolutely amazing. The pictures you see posted are totally accurate and once you see it in person it will take your breath away!

Steven was so... read more easy to communicate with and he was really quick to answer all my questions. Scotty, the grounds keeper was such a sweetheart. He really helped us get around town and even took us to this amazing restaurant down a little ways from the house. I can’t express enough how amazed we were with this Villa and we can’t wait to go back.

  Pictures do not do this place justice. What a treasure in beautiful Oracabessa.

  We loved a staying here and would stay again especially for the private beach, many thanks

Convenient, location... read more with close proximity to Ocho Rios and other tourist attractions. The host was so helpful and responsive. We had everything we needed for the beach. I didn’t use grill, but they provided a grill out back and coal as well. I could easily spend a month here

  We had a wonderful time at the Golden View Villa. We especially enjoyed the coral reef for the snorkeling (snorkeling and diving tours come in front of the villa to... read more see the fishes!), the large living room, the Bluetooth player, and the well equipped kitchen. The place was very clean, spacious, and quiet.

But, guests should know the property has suffered from some wear and tear and there is no AC in the living space. Communication with Steven was great and the welcome host did a great job.
