Exceptional experience for my birthday celebration with my family and close friends. Priceless memories created of which everyone is still commenting on. The rooms were large, clean nicely decorated. The entire staff catered to our every need. The pool, hot tub and view were spectacular.

I enjoyed my time staying here. The house is beautiful and charming. You can really relax and be comfortable and at ease. Stacy you really are a super host. Thank you so much for all the extra help that you provided to me. Thank you for the chef services and helping me to set up the food and birthday decorations for Adrian. I will definitely be back to stay at Draxhall or another one of your properties. Hurricane Melissa caught us in Jamaica and you checked on us to make sure we were good and I appreciated that. Thank you, Thank you!!

Oh my gosh, my stay was excellent!!! I stayed at Areca Palms to sleep over and get ready for my wedding and my bridesmaids and I were welcomed into a beautifully decorated home. I loved the ambiance!!! Everything was to all our liking and even superseded our expectations. I’d recommend Areca Homes to any and everyone, you won’t be disappointed 💯

Fantastic apartment! Very spacious and very comfortable for 4 people (2 adults and 2 teenagers). It is very well equipped with everything you need. Excellent location, close to the supermarket and restaurants, and only a 10-minute walk to the beach. Although Ocho Rios is very safe, the apartment has private security, which gives you great peace of mind. I want to thank its owner, Stacy, for her kind treatment and for being so attentive at all times to make sure we had everything we needed. The pool is beautiful with great views. We felt very comfortable. I highly recommend it!
