Sangster International Airport (MBJ) Montego Bay, Jamaica

MONTEGO BAY AIRPORT JAMAICA


Air Jamaica - the best paint job on any liner

I´ve been updating a lot of sub domains this week for different Jamaica villas that are available for rent all over the Island. One thing I noticed is that there were many references on our Jamaica villas websites to Montego Bay airport and then I realised I never had a link from the Jamaica Villas sites to the Blog, as far as Montego Bay Airport was concerned, so, in the spirit of Blogging, here's my little post on Montego Bay Airport.

Montego Bay Airport is officially known as Sangster International Airport, Montego Bay or MBJ for short and here is the link to prove it MBJ Link

The Montego Bay Jamaica airport site tells us that MBJ is the doorway to one of the most beautiful desired destinations on the planet and I for one would not disagree. It's also on the north west coast of the island of Jamaica and the center of the tourism industry. It's all ripping stuff.

Anyway, if you are coming to Jamaica it would be just as well to get yourself as much information as possible (that's where my little Jamaica blog comes in) and to start with, take a look at Sangster International Airport MBJ website.

Jamaica Villas - Links to Jamaica Treasures villas Blog

JAMAICA VILLAS BLOG LINK PARTNERS

Mr Blogspot never quite grasped what we meant by "Links"
Now, the best way for any Jamaica Blog or website to get found on the Internet search engines, other than having great content is by linking to other well respected websites in the same field or interest as your own website or Blog.

We are always on the look out for other websites and Blogs that are interesting to people who search for the likes of Jamaica Villas, Jamaican holidays, holidays in the Bahamas, holidays in the Caribbean, Bali, Mexico and other parts of the world.

Another search term dear to us is "Jamaica weddings" as we have a staff that are experts at creating the most memorable of wedding days, we are also experts at family get-togethers and Jamaica reunions. We will link to other websites promoting weddings in the Bahamas, Caribbean and such like. No matter we are in competition as linking to competing sites are the very best links.

If you think you have a website, private or commercial that would make a good link partner for us, then please, get in touch with us and we will be happy to link to you, providing it is a relevant link. We will also encourage our existing link partners to do the same and so in no time you will have a complete listings page.

The better the quality of your links, the greater chance you will have of being at the top of the search engines such as Google, Yahoo! MSN and such like. Stay away from link farms (These arrive via email requesting links to third party sites and also asking for multiple links) these are considered Spam.

Want a links? Just leave your link information in our "Comments" field and we will do the rest, we would like a link back though! (No such thing as a free dinner)
Here are a list of link partners available to share links with you:

Jamaican Villas - Golf courses and Golfing holidays in Jamaica

WHERE TO PLAY GOLF IN JAMAICA

"Don´t move...don´t you dare move!"

I suppose one has to be fair or at least, seem to be fair, when writing about holiday activities in Jamaica, no matter how daft the pastime or sport may seem to the writer. So, here goes.

Golf! Just like Jeremy Clarkson, I neither play nor understand golf! As Jezza explains "When you see golf on the telly, it's grass..sky, sky,sky...grass!" He might have added it´s also the most amazing display of fashion crimes known to man, come on now, Plus Fours!!! Theres also the snobbery of the golf clubhouse, or that is the way it is portrayed on the telly.

No matter, Golf courses and Golf Clubs in Jamaica.

There are more than enough golf clubs and courses in Jamaica to keep the most rabid of golfers happy. Let's just highlight the Tryall Golf Club which is in Sandy Bay, Hanover, Montego Bay.

Tryall Golf Club is brilliant and just like other golf clubs and courses around the world, it has everything the golfer needs, such as 18 holes with flags in them, long grassy bits, short grassy bits, holes with sand in them, some ponds and clubhouse and of course beautiful blue and green sky..grass...sky,sky,sky...grass.

The other great thing about Tryall at Sandy Bay is that Jamaican Treasures have the most fantastic villas for rent there, yes! right on the long bit that you bat the little ball down. Have a peep at the Tryall site Link

Anyway, Tryall Golf Club is a must, they also have a tennis club as well for the non-golfers. Here is a full list of the Golf Courses in Jamaica for you golfing persons to drool over. Enjoy.

Jamaican Villas - Deep sea fishing in the Caribbean

DEEP SEA FISHING OFF JAMAICA

"That's the bait sorted, wheres my rod?"
I do like to use my Jamaica Holidays Blog to provide readers with information on what to do when they get to one of our fantastic luxury villas and so I would like to point you at an interesting deep sea fishing website called "Stanley's Deep Sea Fishing" a website for sea fishing off Negril, Jamaica.

If, like me, you've ever done sea fishing you will know it´s really good fun, sometimes you can actually catch a fish or two, well, that's how I do it.

Stanley's site has some cracking happy snaps of anglers with their catch, some of them are most impressive, the fish that is, not the anglers. Stanley's does invite you to " Try your luck at catching Blue Marlin, Mahi, Wahoo (He's making these bloody names up now, I´m sure! and Tuna" we can also see whales, Dolphins and Turtles

The business is owned and run by Cap'n Stanley Carvalho, a salty old sea dog born and raised in Negril. take a look at Stanley's site for fishing in the Caribbean, I´m sure it will give you plenty to think about when you plan your next visit to Jamaica or the Caribbean. Enjoy Cap´n Stanley's Site Link

I was also looking at another website Ochos Rios Fishing Charters and Boats Rentals on World Wide Fishing and it look cool. according to the site, you are free to choose what you do on an Ochos Rios Fishing Charter, like visiting James Bond Beach (James won't be there, well, not James Bond) see the Dunn's River falls, go Snorkeling or just relax and let the world go by. heres the link to Ochos Rios Fishing Charters.

jamaica Villas - Holidays in the Dominican Republic

VILLAS IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC


Sea Horse Ranch 97 - Dominican Republic
 The Dominican Republic or the Republic of Dominicana, whatever way you like. I have very fond memories of a holiday to the Dominican Republic way back in the 1990's I went to a place called Juan Dolio on the Caribbean Sea side of the island, the other side being on the North Antlantic Ocean.

I, along with my better half, went on one of those all inclusive jobs to a site in Juan Dolio and really had a ball. The place it'self was a bit basic but it was clean and the staff were very polite and helpful.

We spent a lot of the time on the beach and because we had only 1 week to get a tan, we "made hay" whilst the sun shone.

On our first trip to the beach there were many vendors offering local souvenirs, hair braiding and such like. There was one guy, however, selling something I had never heard of before, these were called "Ouches!" on close inspection they turned out to be flip-flops!

Anyway, I didn´t want any as I had my own footwear with me. I was confused why they were called "Ouches!" as being a Spanish speaker, I didn´t know of any Spanish sounding word like "Ouches!" (pronounced "Ow-chez")

I decided to go for a dip in the Caribbean, noting that no Shark has ever attacked anyone in six inches of water, I reckoned I was safe from Jaws or any Great White that may have got lost by a few thousand miles.

No sooner had I stepped into the water, I stood on a lump of sharp coral as I did so, I let out the loudest shriek of pain you have ever heard "Ouch!"

Having now realised the significance in their name, I purchased two pair of "Ouches!" from the grinning footware vendor there and then. Lesson learned.

Anyway, back to Jamaican Treasures and My Luxury Villas who have some cracking villas on the Island, take a look at this featured villa Sea Horse ranch Nº97

Jamaica Villas - Holidays in Phuket, Thailand

VILLAS IN PHUKET-  THAILAND

Villa Arawan - Phuket - Thailand

Thailand! Just the name envokes pictures of exotic ladies, beautiful buildings and spicey food. It wasn´t always called Thailand but then, I´m sure you don´t need me to tell you that, you know it was called Siam, you must have seen the film with Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner, The King and I it was called, all about this bald bloke and some mad school teacher. Anyway, it was called Siam then, not Thailand.

It will also not come as any suprise to readers of this Blog that everyones favourite luxury holiday villas rentals company has a list of fantastic luxury properties available for rent, not just for vacations but also for Thailand weddings, honeymoons and family reunions. Yes, were very versatiloe in that respect.

The Thai villa I have chosen to highlight in this blog entry is Villa Arawan in Phuket, Thailand. Now, depending on where you come from and how you spell "Arawan, Erawan etc" the name describes an Elephant God who's responsible for rain clouds. The description is far too long winded and complicated for me to transpose so here, take a look yourself Arawan link

The villa is not complicated though, it is very beautiful to behold and is located within a private estate, Ayara Surin. 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms all decorated in authentic Thai style, this is a very nice place indeed. My Luxury Villas has provided plenty of good photographs as well as a lot of descriptive details for you to look at. have a look at this property, take your time, you'll be glad you did Villa Erawan Link.

Jamaica Villas - Holidays in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico

VILLAS IN PUERTA VALLARTA MEXICO

Casa Septiembre - Puerta Vallarta, Mexico

It is said that "travel broadens the mind" and if that is correct then Travel Blogs must also do the same, no? I think it does, or in any case, writing about interesting places like Puerta Vallarta and Mexico broadens my mind because I find both very interesting.

I´m a Spanish speaking Brit who lives in Andalucia, Spain, in the mountains above Malaga and I have long wanted to visit Mexico but for some reason I never have got there, the nearest I managed was the Dominican Republic for a week, some years ago. It's strange the way we put things off.

Never mind. Puerta Vallarta, Mexico; Outside of Mexico City and Taquilla it is the most popular Mexican location with American and European tourists and it is also a great place to visit. The city is named after governer Jalisco, Ignacio Vallarta.

You will be suprised to know (er...or not suprised, if you are a regular on this Blog) that Jamaican Treasures and My Luxury Villas, their sister site have both got oodles of luxury villas and apartments in Puerta Vallarta and other parts of Mexico. Oh yes! lots of lovely properties for Mexico holidays.

Heres one for you "Casa Septiembre" and if, like me, you hablo the lingo, you will know that this translates to "September House" and it has 8 bedrooms and seven bathrooms. So there!!
September House or Casa Septiembre has some fantastic views, take a look at this Mexico property on the My Luxury Villas Website and let me know what YOU think of the location and the house. You can add your comments to this blog. meanwhile, heres the link Casa Septiembre Link

Jamaica Villas - Villas in Grenada and Caribbean

GRENADA HOLIDAY VILLA RENTALS

Villa Caribella - Grenada

Grenada, dear readers, where is and indeed, what, is Grenada? Grenada in the Caribbean (pronounced Gren-ade-ah) is not be confused with Granada in Spain (pronounced Gra-nah-da) is one of those strange places that the general public doesn't really know a lot about. Isn´t it a good job that I have my little Blog to help out.

Let me explain about Grenada; Grenada is an Island, a country in it´s own right, a commonwealth  Realm consisting of the island of Grenada and six smaller islands at the southern end of the Grenadines in the south eastern Caribbean Sea.
Grenada is located northwest of Trinidad and Tobago, northeast of Venezuela, and southwest of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

Still none the wiser? Is it bung a map on time then? heck, why not!

Map showing Blog readers where Grenada is.

Right, now we have established where Grenada is, I will now go on to give you the rest of the Blog entry, no doubt you know what's coming :-)

Strangely enough, My Luxury Villas, a sister site to Jamaican Treasures, has a list of villas for rent in Grenada. Well, not so much as a list as we have only two for now but will no doubt we will have more in the coming weeks and months and you can sure I will bring them to your attention as soon as they appear (No suprises there then?)

For now though, you will have to content yourself with Villa Caribella, a really beautiful three bedroom property. This Grenadine villa is so beautiful that the great and the good of Jamaican Treasures and My Luxury Villas don´t trust me to describe to you just how truly wonderful this villas is. So, in the best traditions of Blogging, I am going to provide you with a link so that you can see for yourself what has been written about this property LINK
