FABULOUS VACATION PROPERTY
A vacation at this property is like staying at your own private resort. Upon arrival, after being picked up by Randy at the airport in a private bus, my grandson exclaimed "what did we do to deserve this?" It felt like we were walking into Downton Abby with the staff all standing there to greet us. After a tour of the property, we were served dinner out on the patio and treated like royalty. The house and the grounds are beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay, even though the weather was pretty bad for most of the week. The children were in the pool all day, rain or shine and 2 of the younger ones learned how to swim during the week. We enjoyed going to the Blue Hole and jumping into the pools and it was so nice to have a driver to take us wherever we wanted to go. We felt safe at all times which was really nice since the US government makes Jamaica sound pretty scary. (Not that the US is exactly the safest place in the world these days!). We had 3 generations of family staying here and it was so nice to not have to worry about food, cooking, cleaning or driving. Our laundry was even done every day by Janice and Nicole. We had Randy come and teach yoga and give us massages which was a real treat! Danion cooked us delicious meals and catered to all of our dietary requirements. Jermaine was very helpful and made yummy drinks all day and helped out at mealtime with Michael the groundskeeper. And thanks to Cleveland for watching the house every night!!

Truly Paradise
Clean, well kept, convenient to various attractions and safe. The staff from driver to chef were excellent. We wanted for nothing and we were treated with utmost respect and care. The villa had everything we needed for our family even a crip for my 9 mo grandson. The only area that was lacking was the life vests available… even though everyone are swimmers it would be nice to have some vests that kayakers could use to venture further offshore. On a whole a fantastic experience. I know it can be a challenge dealing with salt air. but as an interior designer I observed that window treatments could use some much needed updating, as well as some repairs of window latches, however with that being said we had a glorious time and do plan to return

My family and I stayed here for 9 nights and the property is amazing as well as all the staff who treated us with outstanding service, helpful in all ways, went out of their ways to please us, and a wonderful time had by all. It was hard to leave. Chef Danien was an amazing cook who created meals for everyone and catered to my grandsons with allergies. Every meal was absolutely delicious! The butler, Jermaine went out of his way to please us in every way, and always with a smile. The groundskeeper, and housekeeping staff kept everything looking great. Truly an amazing vacation and hope to be back again someday!

This really is a paradise!
What an amazing vacation in paradise! We are a group of 13 friends and we had the most glorious time, from start to finish. Ronnie picked us up from the airport and drove us wherever we wanted to go all week, providing suggestions and helping to set up day trips. Jenice greeted us when we arrived and her and Nicola made sure that we were well cared during for our stay. (I recommend the massages.) The staff at this villa is so attentive, but they never were intrusive. The villa was very clean and had all the amenities you could want. The food was a real highlight. Danion is an outstanding chef, and was very helpful in planning our menus and sharing information about Jamaican food. Jermaine made the most delicious drinks and he and Michael take excellent care of the property. And Cleveland made sure that we always felt safe. Any suggestions the staff provided for places to see or eat were excellent, especially our dinner at Miss T’s. The pool and the beach felt very private. The rooms were well air conditioned if we needed to escape the heat. The villa itself is very nice, and the grounds exceptional! The wifi worked when we wanted it, and there is a small tiki bar and a shop with an ATM just 5 minutes down the beach if you want it. Finally, Tony was very easy to deal with and answered all questions quickly. All in all, we cannot recommend it enough!

Best Vacation Ever!
Villa Paradiso exceeded our expectations! The house is lovely and located in a nice, gated community. It is perfectly situated right on its own beautiful, sandy beach. The house is very clean and has plenty of seating for lounging and meals, both inside and outside. The staff is amazing! Germaine, Michael, Janice, Nicola and Cleveland were extremely attentive, pleasant, and accommodating. Ronnie, the driver, provided us excellent recommendations for activities and excursions and made all of the reservations for us. Chef Danion created delicious and healthy meals and was willing to cook whatever we wanted. But we also deferred to his talents and Jamaican roots, and he took the time share some culinary secrets with us! In addition to being an incredible cook, Chef Danion is a kind soul, who is a caring and thoughtful individual. He really made our trip to Villa Paradiso that much more remarkable and memorable. The owner, Tony, was a joy to work with. He was very responsive and patient with our numerous questions! He even took the time to contact us during our stay to ensure everything was perfect. We will absolutely be back to Villa Paradiso...One Love!

Spectacular stay
It is obvious from the moment you step on to the property that the owners and the on site team deeply care about the property and their guests! The layout of the property is perfect for extended families; from back door to the beach, you have a less than 50’ walk… our baby monitor worked from the beach chairs or anywhere around the pool. While the home was wonderful, the on site team is what sets the guest experience apart. Special shout out to each of the team: Chef Danien took exceptional pride in every dish he prepared for us, happily shared recipes, and took everyone on shopping trips. Janice and Nicole kept the home spotless and returned laundry so quickly… we could have packed way lighter! Jermaine was always available and ready to help. Michael kept the grounds tidy. Ronnie (driver) was always available to us and having the bus on site was a huge plus for our busy family. One of the highlights of our trip was when Cleveland (security guard) brought a box of newly hatched sea turtles... a nest had hatched on the beach and a few had gone the wrong direction. We spent the next hours collecting any turtles who ended up on the driveway and lawn then returning them to the ocean. All and all, a memorable and relaxing trip... thank you to Tony & family for sharing your home with us. All the best, The Miller family

We booked Villa Paradiso for my sister's 60th birthday, 16 of us came on the trip. From the moment we got on the bus, life became lovely! Jonathan and Donavan picked us up from the airport. The ride was so fun and lively. We arrived at the house and the entire staff was waiting for us with drinks and snacks. From there the lovely Jeneise took us on a tour of the house, she will make you feel at home immediately upon arrival.The pics do not do the place justice, the house is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!! Chef is amazing, Jermaine made tge best drinks, Nicole was so sweet, and Michael always greeted us with a smile. The beach is right outside the house and we stayed in it the majority of the time.

Wonderful family trip
We had an awesome time at Villa Paradiso in the Mammee Bay Estates. The location, food, service was excellent and the staff very warm and welcoming. We hardly left the villa because it was so perfect for us. My only surprise was that the common areas were not air conditioned, only the bedrooms and it was very warm as you would expect of a tropical vacation. But coming from Houston,Texas, we are air conditioned to the hilt so not accustomed to having none, especially when eating (flies). But we just stayed wet most of the time and the team set out an additional fan which helped.

Villa Paradiso was just what the doctor ordered! From the first contact with our host, to the airport transfer from Ronnie, we we were cared for and guided, fed and pampered. We fell into the Paradiso routine with ease and if we could have stayed longer we certainly would have! Janice, the house manager said on our arrival that "the heaviest thing she likes her guests to lift is their drink." :) Thank you to the whole Paradiso family for lifting our daily to-dos and letting us fully soak in the Jamaican sun and sea. You managed our group of nine, aged 1 to 55 with ease and flexibility, and we always felt we were in the best hands! Cant wait to see you all again!

PARADISE FOUND
BEST vacation home we've ever booked!! Beachfront villa in a secluded turquoise blue cove. The house is huge, comfortable, amazing views, and great areas for chilling with family. Large, warm pool surrounded by palm trees, overlooks the Mammee Bay beach (coral for snorkeling, but also sandy). Family enjoyed ping pong tournaments in air conditioned garage and kayaking. BEST part of this villa is the superior staff and Chef Shelton! Delicious, varied, plentiful food appears magically at the table morning, noon, and night. He accommodated the grandkids and vegetarians in our family. Jermaine was attentive and made great drinks! Driver Ronnie was the best guide and arranged our Adventure Day to White River Tubing, Zip line, Blue Water Hole, and took us shopping. From ages 8 to 73, we all LOVED Villa Paradiso and hope to return soon! Thanks, Tony!

Paradise at the Villa Paradiso
The villa was wonderful...spacious (we had 13 people in our group), right on a great beach with azure water, it's own swimming pool, airconditioned bedrooms, and a great outside space to sit and to eat with sea breezes wafting over us. The staff was amazing, all very nice and very capable people, keeping the place running smoothly. The cook, Patrick, ably and good-naturedly handled a group with a vegan, 5 vegetarian, and a bunch of meat-eaters. His cooking was terrific, and spoilt the group as it was better than eating out anywhere, especially for the vegetarians. It was great for a large group, with areas to congregate indoors and outside, but also many areas for folks to get alone-time if desired...the hammock, the gazebo, the chaises near the pool and the beach. Highly recommend.

A Taste of Paradise
Warning - your stay here will make you want to return very soon! Our wonderful stay a Villa Paradiso began with our airport pickup by Ronnie, the most professional, pleasant, competent and safe driver who easily took care of our complicated pick up that involved many flights and even other family members who were staying at nearby villas. We were greeted by the friendly, welcoming villa staff, cool drinks and a moist towel after long travels. The housekeeper, Marie, was exceptional. One would not have guessed that this was her first month with Paradiso as she performed as a veteran, ensuring that all guests had everything they needed and more. We were a complicated group - a family gathering of Jamaican-born cousins and our families who were born in the US and the UK. Many first timers to Jamaica and a revolving group of visitors, other cousins who still live on the island, along with close friends from decades ago. We had 10 month old babies up to a 79 year old great-grandmother. Marie made sure every guest was welcomed and taken care of, even enabling us to feed the never-ending group of some 30 diners in the evening who gathered very comfortably at the very spacious villa. The chef took care of the palates of meat eaters and vegetarians. Ronnie took some on day-long trips to visit old stomping grounds and Michael, the groundskeeper, made himself available to those who had short trips nearby when Ronnie was already occupied. The private beach area was lovely. The gazebo was a great place to have a quiet morning coffee. Watch out for rocks in the shallow ocean, easy to see in the crystal clear waters. Laid out very beautifully, the villa's main house has 3 king bedrooms and 2 bedrooms with 3 twins. All kings had ocean views. An additional, spacious king bedroom sat alone facing the ocean and a separate cottage, behind the main villa, housed a full bed with a private outdoor bathroom as well as another room with 2 twins, a bathroom and small living room. The stand alone king had a couple of random issues, the air conditioning unit malfunctioned and leaked all over the luggage and the toilet ran incessantly, then didn't flush. These problems were addressed immediately. The house could stand to have some updates. The salt air is not kind to faucets and the tile grouts are showing wear. But these small things did not diminish our exceptional stay at Villa Paradiso and it very deservedly earns all of the 5 stars that it routinely receives.
