Now, new owners have fully renovated Villa Rosa, carefully preserving vintage architectural bones and unique features such as the “floating” staircase – while introducing ultra-modern luxurious bathrooms, outdoor tubs and showers, sleek bar and kitchen, media room and up-to-date technology, spa and workout spaces.

The upper floor room with outdoor deck doubles as a spa and yoga studio.

It’s difficult to name the most exciting aspect about traveling to a tropical paradise like Villa Rosa. The spirit of friendliness and family in the air is certainly a guest favourite. Others say that the luxury of the villa itself is what keeps them coming back. But for many folks, the greatest thing about a Jamaican holiday is, hands down, the food. Jamaica has a long, rich culinary tradition of serving delicious and unique foods. The signature dishes and specialty flavours of the island have awed travellers from far and wide.
