Treated like we are family!
We had the best time at Waters Edge! Jay and Win are the best hosts and we couldn't help but make permanent friends with them - they treated us like family. Jay had fresh fruit and breakfasts ready for us every morning. We hope to come back to Jamaica and see our friends at Water's Edge. Joe and Laura

The staff were very friendly and the view was nice. Don't think because it is water front there is a beech or easy access. Bright lights shine in your room all night and booming music plays untill 2:00 there was a problem with roaches and ants. There is nowhere clean and safe nearby to eat and getting a ride into town is very expensive for 1 option and very inconvenient for another. The wiring was a fire hazard everywhere i looked. And the barbed wire covered walls are an eyesore. you must try to find someone to let you through the gate if you want to go somewhere. There is never anyone at the desk. The expedia app won't let me add photos.

The property was located on the water so it provided serenity and beauty. A great option for lodging without the hustle and bustle of a lot of foot traffic. Owner was very nice and the staff was very helpful. I am looking forward to staying there again.

I enjoyed the quiet area, a car is a must. The owner Peter looked after us personally and has a driver Robert. Our room was beautiful with full view of ocean. It was very reasonable compared to hotels.
