    The owner is wonderful and friendly. My family and I really enjoyed his company and he gave us enough space to enjoy the facilities such as the kitchen and walking around the property where we picked from the variety of fruit trees. The other staff were helpful and pleasant as well. Even the dog was super friendly 😄

    Hard to get walking. Better with a car as it is on a hill. The mesh, even though it protected the room against mosquitos, blocked the view, making it unclear to enjoy the views.

    The host was very very friendly. The place felt like home. The views over the bay and over the town were astonishing.

    No hot water on our first night but that was fixed for our second night. Shared kitchen facilities OK but not great. As usual, dropped pin on Booking.com map is in wrong place (although correctly marked on Google maps). Correct location is: 18.180763, -76.45177.

    Tony, who runs it very friendly. Very nice quiet location and convenient for walking to town/the Marina.

    Being brits we were a little peturbed at a curtain over the toilet, where as we are used to a solid door. It was easy to juggle bathroom needs.

    The location was lovely, close to town, and the beaches. The view was gorgeous. It was a jamaican welcome, and jamaican style residence. They were kind to the dogs and cats and fed them. You could prepare food in the kitchen, store food safetly in the fridge. People around port antonio friendly, and we shopped with local people, locally in shops and the market, with no hassle or inflated prices .

    I loved itd Rustic charm. Its tranquil and beautiful scenic environment. The staff went over and beyond to make my stay comfortable. When my feet were swollen, Tony used his massage skills to soothe them. The property has coconuts, fruit and vegetable trees and plants, its a nature preserve. The security was good. I felt comfortable and at home. The town centre and food shops are close by. My stay was better than expected.

    There is a fridge to put your drinks and things in, but you have to ask the owner to put them in and give them back to you, which isn't very convenient.

    The place is just past the centre of town, so easy to access restaurants and shops. It's also quiet and breezy on the hill. The room had a fan and mosquito net, so it was comfortable to sleep in.

    The time we were there unfortunately the water pump was on it’s last legs and would make a horrible loud noise every time it went on, which was often. It’s jarring sound occurred anytime anyone in the facility turned a tap on or flushed a toilet. It was loud and annoying. Tony is a handyman, so I suspect he will have this fixed soon enough. This isn’t the property’s fault, but good to know, the town comes alive, loudly, at night. There is music and big voices on loud speaker megaphones. If night life is your jam, this could be a good thing; but for sleeping, not so much. It all ends by 4am, just in time for the roosters to begin singing!

    The layout and space of Finjam Cottage was great. There are three communal covered outdoor spaces that were great to sit and talk to each other and the other guests, or to quietly enjoy our morning coffee. Since I was travelling with my family, the kitchen was very useful for preparing meals and so we used the dining table to sit together and eat. The rooms were large and had warm water. Comfortable beds and pillows. My husband and I had room 4, which had a private balcony that we enjoyed. The property is surrounded by tropical trees, and has a great view to the water on both sides. Lots of birds to watch in the trees, and some neighbourhood cats would come to visit too. It was an easy walk down the hill to town to visit the market or walk the marina park. The roads out of town to the beaches are classic Jamaican roads, so 12 km to the beautiful public (by donation) Winifred Beach took over 40 minutes to drive! Tony, the owner of Finjam, is a very personable and kind man. He was helpful in all the ways and easy to talk to.

    I didn't like that there was no cable (Netflix etc...) and the bathroom was too near the bed. Also, there was no soap holder inside the shower.

    Rooms werent ready despite arriving after check in time (this seems to be a theme in Jamaica which I was expecting before I even arrived), floors could have been swept a bit better and bathroom was quite small. Water from bathroom tap was barely a trickle but shower was OK.

    Use of the kitchen was free and decent amenities in there. Rooms OK, fairly spacious, whole place a little dated, seemed a little nicer in the photos but OK for 1 or 2 nights stay. Location alright, you can walk to the main centre for restaurants.
