Beautiful Home
Sun Kissed is gorgeous! The house is laid out great. Our stay was the week after Beryl so it was a little hotter and muggier than normal and we had tons of mosquitos but nothing that anyone could help. We lived in the pool most of the week and it was great. Chef Tony is amazing! The best food we have ever had in Jamaica. Jonno and Jermaine became great friends. Recommend this house for a stay in Jamaica!

SunKissed Villa Family Vacay
Our party of 12 enjoy the property thoroughly. There were a lot of amenities on site that kept our group occupied. The beach was beautiful was exclusive and there was a nearby water rafting excursion. The staff was amazing, Chef Tony prepared breakfast, lunch and dinner wonderfully during our stay. The housekeeper, Kamesha, was very friendly, helpful and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. Johno, the groundskeeper kept us safe, secure and was amazing overall help. Jermaine was very flexible and very accommodating. The driver, Cleveland, was very patient and informative. The house could use a little TLC but not bad. The rooms were spacious for the most part. Although there is AC in all the bedrooms, the home could benefit having AC in the common areas. A TV in a more centralized location would do wonders and screened in bedroom windows so one could enjoy the ocean air without the mosquitoes. Our family vacation was a wonderful experience which was mostly due to the staff.

Relaxing Friends Trip
Cook and staff are fabulous. House is a bit more dated than pictures indicate, but well maintained and excellent location in a quiet bay. Local activities are worth checking out. Our group is quite seasoned in our travels, and our trip to Sun Kissed was over Super Bowl weekend. There were challenges with the house internet, but staff made accommodations to make sure we saw the game and were well fed. A great time was had by all in for our group of ten!

Great location
Upon arrival we were instantly impressed with the villa and its location. We actually thought that it looked much nicer than the pictures. We had ample space within and outside of the property. The bedrooms were a great size and the bathrooms were huge in size with mainly walk in showers. The outdoor spaces as well as indoor catered for both comfortable dining and lounging. There’s a choice of areas around the poo to sunbathe or relax on a sun lounger. There was also equipment to enjoy kayaking or floating in the sea. The beach was steps away from the villa and it felt like a private beach as it is only shared by a few villas. There is plenty to explore at sea too as we stumbled upon a mini cove great for snorkelling. As soon as we got there we were met with a warm welcome by the staff. They went over and above to ensure that we had a great stay. The meals that were prepared were authentic and delicious. Arranging meals was very flexible and you could order whatever you desired to eat. The Wi-Fi and water pressure could be improved. Prior to the holiday, we were asked about trips that we wanted to do and an itinerary was prepared for us by the manager. They could also provide transportation. However, we decided to hire our own vehicle as this worked out more cost effective. We did many fantastic excursions and visited different parts of the island. We had an amazing holiday.

Perfect for Family of 8 - Sunkissed!
This is a property you will want to return to each year! Our family of 8 found SunKissed Villa to be perfect. Plenty of room to gather or spread out. Each space unique and with a lovely & tranquil view. Comfortable beds w/nice respite AC in each room. Clean house, beach, pool and pool deck. Walkable gated community where each person felt safe. We made our way to the bar outside the gate for drinks. A perfect spot between OR & MB. Our group did activities together (Glistening waters a must do!) to some apart (distilleries versus waterfalls & ziplining) The difference maker for this property is the staff. Cleveland was friendly and safe driver. He was thoughtful about where he took us and always had great things to share. We also had a great driver in Wayne. He made our excursion so special with added detours to learn about the area and history. Jermaine was a new butler, He greeted us with rum punch and was attentive. Miriam was so sweet and helpful. She took care to clean our rooms, wash and dry a few clothes, and helped to make everyone feel so warm and welcome. -Johnno (a new family friend) there every night & day. He made us feel safe well taken care of... he built the best bonfire. But if you come - come for Amoy. Amoy was more than an amazing chef (have everything she makes!) She knows how to make your visit a delightful and delicious experience. Lastly, thank you to Deana, our wonderful concierge.

A bit disappointing
The initial experience was very good aside from the bedrooms not being cooled prior to our arrival making it very hot. We quickly learned the water pressure was on existent but since we had no plans to leave we decided just to deal with it. Things really shifted when the chef’s mood changed. We set a menu but also told her we were going to try to find fresh fish. She never mentioned her allergy to crab. Without detailing every event by day 2 the chef didn’t hide that she was not happy to deal with us. We are a very simple group and constantly complimented her cooking. Something just wasn’t right and it was clear. I reached out to mgr about our experience so they were aware - on the day we left. 6 days ago. Haven’t heard a peep. With great reviews I questioned my experience but all six couples traveling together felt every detail of this very strongly.

Nothing Short of Amazing
We recently had the pleasure of vacationing in Jamaica with a group of friends for a surprise 50th for my wife. It was an incredible experience that exceeded all our expectations. It was simply breathtaking, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality by the staff at Sun Kissed, provided us with an unforgettable trip filled with fun, relaxation, and adventure. The crystal-clear turquoise waters were straight out of a postcard. We spent countless hours swimming, snorkeling, and soaking up the sun, enjoying the perfect tropical paradise right at the house. Amoy (chef) and Orville were just awesome!! Wain drove us all over as we had the opportunity to explore the stunning Blue Hole, where we climbed and hiked amidst the cascading waterfalls. It was an exhilarating adventure that brought us closer to nature and created lasting memories. The Jamaican people are incredibly warm and friendly, making our stay even more enjoyable. Everywhere we went, from the staff to the locals we encountered, we were greeted with genuine smiles and welcoming spirits. They made us feel at home and their vibrant culture added a special touch to our vacation. Sampling traditional Jamaican dishes like jerk chicken, ackee and saltfish, and fresh tropic fruit that Amoy brought daily. WE CANNOT WAIT TO GO BACK!! -Diaz

7 women all gathered at Sunkissed to celebrate our dear friend's 60th. We had a great time because the villa was perfect. Plenty of room inside and out. Everyone had her own bathroom and bedroom and the outdoor terrace era was so nice. We could all be together or break off from the group at any time for peace and quiet on the beach.

Amazing 65th Birthday Celebration
Sun Kissed Villa was the perfect location to celebrate my 65th birthday with 7 best girlfriends. It was absolutely gorgeous. First, Deana helped setup an unforgettable weekend. Every local vendor recommended was top notch. She was always reachable and accommodating, like when we had flight delays and needed to rearrange transportation. I can’t say enough about the staff who became family to us. Chef Amoy had free reign with meals and she did not disappoint. She is an amazing cook. Her sweet plantains are to die for. Amoy made several local dishes and took special care with my birthday dinner on the beach. Orville provided great service during our meals with his charming personality. Johno didn’t just make sure we were secure at night. He made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. He even helped us turn the living room into a stage for our talent show. His bonfire during the beach dinner made for great pictures. Miriam quietly went about the business of keeping the villa clean and in order. Even our driver Clevie was the best. When he saw that we like to party he brought the boombox onto the bus as we went out on excursions. If you’re looking for a beautiful location with a great staff Sun Kissed Villa is the place for you!

70th Birthday Celebration
The house is great for a large family. The staff is fantastic and taking care of the group. Amoy really did a great job with the food preparing various local dishes along with crowd favorites. If you want a great place to truly relax you have everything you need. The pool is great, the beach is great for all ages, the house is clean, and the beds are very comfy. We were there over New Year's and Jahno made the most spectacular bonfire on the beach to celebrate as well as lock up each night. Jav was always there for great drinks and our DJ. Marian was behind the scenes keeping the place looking like a resort. Between the staff service and the great house and location, you can’t go wrong staying at Sun Kissed Villa.

Cleveland, our driver, really made our trip special his knowledge of the island added a memorable touch. The house is not in the cities but a short distance from almost every where we wanted to go. All without the hustle and bustle of a city. I would recommend this house to anyone who wants to stay in Jamaica.

Sun-kissed holiday
Bird, the chef was excellent and all meals were of a high standard. He was also very good with music support during our stay! Several of the bathroom amenities did not work and this detracted from the stay. While walking around the pool, two electrical boxes project a little from the surface, making walking very unsafe. This caused an injury, and extreme care needs to be taken while walking around the pool.

Family memories made.
The staff was excellent. Very accommodating, welcoming and friendly! We had the best birthday dance party courtesy of DJ (Chef) Byrd and Jahno built the most amazing bonfire imaginable!! Al was on point during meal service and clean up. Marianne quietly went about the housekeeping while constantly laughing at our goofy little girls. The house is absolutely gorgeous. Some of the photos in the listing don’t match the current layout. (I believe that one of the pics might be from another house altogether.) Not a big deal but it did make room selection with the littles a bit more difficult. There is definitely some maintenance necessary that should not fall on the staff to fix and they should be addressed sooner than later. One big example is the set of large accordion doors for the living room. They cannot be opened because there is a broken key in the lock. As a result there was no air flow in that section of the house so we didn’t spend any time in there whatsoever. Do not be afraid to ask the staff for the things you need (beach towels, bath towels, something specific from the store… etc) they will do their very best to accommodate you!! This truly was a slice of island living where we made beautiful family memories with the help of our wonderful staff.

Wonderful trip
We were a group of 12. Most of us were in our upper 40s. We wanted a nice place that we could have to ourselves and have our own good time. This is the perfect place for that. The accommodations were excellent. Bird Man's cooking was top notch. We filled out the rental sheet with what we would like and met with him on our second day to prepare meals for the rest of the week. No one went hungry during our trip. Al, Jay and Mary Ann were all very friendly. Al ended up being our resident D-Jay for the week. Jay made sure everyone was safe and locked up the place in the evenings. Mary Ann took care of the clothes and linens and made sure our rooms were always clean. The beach was nice and calm. There is a small stretch of shells as you get in the water but only a few feet before getting to sand. The kayaks and paddle boards were a hit. I don't think they went a day without being used. The bay was nice with calm waters and a cool current circling through which made it nice. The pool was nice and relaxing also. The pool table was used extensively throughout our stay also. The only complaint I have was the communication prior to our trip wasn't as good as I felt it should have been. Some of the items we requested weren't at the house when we arrived either. We did find out the concierge responds way better on What's App compared to email, so we started using that mode. This drastically improved communications. It wasn't a make or break deal without the items being there, but that's what keeps it from being a full five star rating from us. All in all the group feels it was a solid 4.8 to 4.9. If we're in the market for a big house to stay in again, we won't hesitate to have this one on the list. Thanks.
