    Excellent breakfast; cooked to our liking. Location is quite central and easy access to centre. A very good local restaurant next door which serves very good food and value for money. Valerie and the staff were very helpful with all local enquiries. On the last day, Valerie kindly arranged a rental car from a reliable owner and delivered to us which was very helpful. Hopefully, we will come back again in future.

    The location is pretty noisy as directly next to a Main Street with crazy truck drivers who are addicted to make noises

    Valerie is a brilliant host, we would vote for her with 10 stars if possible😀 She is just brilliant in giving great recommendations Her breakfast was just delicious and she is running the B&B with passion. Next to her house you find a good restaurant. It is a ten minute walk only to get to Doctors beach.

    No mosquito netting on windows to prevent flies/mosquito entering bedroom. Off road traffic can be noisy during the day but calms down at nights. TV in the bedroom unfortunately didn't work during stay, however is scheduled to be fixed. The overhead light blinked constantly, bedside lamp was used instead which lit the room enough to resolve issue. Shower tiles needs re-tiling on shower floor and toilet seat fastened.

    Room had aircon that was effective in keeping cool. The room came with a large enough fridge for storage of drinks/food. Amazing balcony view and area for outdoor eating/seating. Lobby area in the hotel was beautifully decorated and a great space to relax outside of the bedroom. The hotel was clean throughout. Breakfast served every morning was tasty and freshly prepared. Host and staff absolutely amazing and friendly, exceptionally helpful. Thank you both Whitney & Valarie. There was laundry service and early/late check out options. Location of hotel from airport is less than 10mins! Yet safely tucked off the main road with parking outside. Restaurant next door for dinner and another a short walk away.

    The WiFi was out but they got it back quickly. The sink in the bathroom had terrible drainage and that was a real annoyance with brushing your teeth and washing the kids faces at night. But they will probably get that done asap.

    The property was really nice with lots of pretty landscaping, plants and cool decorative things. We really liked the owner and staff. They made a delicious and full breakfast every morning and it was just so nice. They were helpful with anything you needed.

    This facility does not have a generator if electricity goes out, which happens often in Jamaica.

    The staff were awesome and accommodating. Breakfast every day was the highlight of our stay. The views were beautiful. There was plenty of running water. There is a great restaurant next door.

    The night manager was often no where to be found. But that does not take away from the safe and secureness it’s just if you had a question or wanted to check anything he was not there.

    Valerie, she 100% made our stay. The breakfast every day was delicious and different, you could have Jamaican or American or fruit. It is a charming b&b with loads of personality.

    There was not much choice and no bake beans The beach is only 10 minutes walk away but a steep downhill walk. So walking back to the hotel was very difficult. To use a taxi it cost us £20 return for a 5 min drive The airport is only 3 minutes away and it cost us £15

    The breakfast was OK, Could have done with having a bit more choice

    Nothing to dislike :)

    Valerie was definitely a highlight. She is such a warm and caring person who goes out of her way to help you out and share information about the area. Suzette who cooked the breakfast and looked after the rooms was also a delight every morning. It was a pleasure relaxing in the garden (we spent a whole day away from the crowds just relaxing and reading) and we even got to see Steve the hummingbird. Valerie suggested a brilliant driver, Isobel, who really took care of us. Although it is away from the main area there is a restaurant next door which serves delicious escovitch fish (red snapper).

    the floors in the room looked very dirty. but I think it just needed a good waxing. I didn’t get the code to the door and got locked out one night. thankfully someone answered the phone because it was very late.(I wasn’t given the door code)other than that I really liked the property.

    I liked the garden a lot and that it was right next to a restaurant. I also appreciated the breakfast.

    The Retreat is an oasis and super close to the airport. However you are a bit away from Restaurants, Shops etc. But it's still possible to walk there in like 20 min or get a driver.

    The B&B is surrounded by a beautiful green garden. The breakfast is served on a little terrace, just amazing and delicious. The owner Valerie is an angel. She is so helpful, honest and real and absolutely understands the guests needs. I felt sick and she cooked a tee with herbs from the garden for me. We loved Mynth Retreat and can reccomend it 100% and would come back at any time.
