Jamaica Villas | Villa Malatai, Ocho Rios, Jamaica


Villa Malatai at Ochos Rios, Jamaica


Malatai is a wonderful new addition to the luxury Villas located in Ocho Rios. Just off the main road into Ocho Rios, a small lane leads to a tropical woodland. At the end of the lane, an electronic gate opens to reveal a large and magnificent new villa named Malatai.

Twin koi ponds grace the covered entrance. On textures of gleaming Jotoba wood, Italian tile, Jerusalem stone, marble and granite, interior spaces open to the piece de resistance: a 3,300-square-foot white sand beach. Directly on the translucent waters of Mammee Bay, Villa Malatai is one of the newest and largest villas in this collection. Completed in January 2005, the property consists of the spacious main villa, air-conditioned fitness cottage, free-form pool and hot tub, large lawn with shaded sitting areas, and deck for pool parties and outdoor entertaining by the sea.
See full details of Villa Malatai from our main Luxury Arrivals website.

Definitive Guide to Jamaica


The Definitive Guide to Jamaica video presentation

Everyone who reads this Blog (both of you) will know by now that I pillage the Internet for material that will be helpful for anyone thinking of renting a Jamaica Villa or coming to Jamaica for a holiday or a wedding or a family reunion.

Youtube has some great videos, it also has some bad videos but I have found one that is really good. There is a website called the Definitive Caribbean http://www.definitivecaribbean.com/ and they have their own Youtube chanel which has great videos of Jamaica and other Caribbean Islands. The video of Jamaica posted in this Blog is a great representation of Jamaica ina 9 minute video.

If you have a spare 9 minutes, please watch this Jamaica presentation, you will really enjoy it. The lady doing the voice over sounds very nice.

Tortola - Holiday villas in the British Virgin Islands

Villa Diamante on the island of Tortola

You will have had time now to study the map I posted on my last blog to indicate where the island of Tortola is. We also should know that it is part of the British Virgin Island and is off the coast of Porta Rico. Good, I can now tell you about some of the great luxury villas My Luxury Villas has on the island.

I´ll start with Villa Diamante.

Villa Diamante is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac shaded by beautiful trees and scented bouganville flowers. Villa Diamante has been built in three pavilions separated by a spacious sun deck and refreshing large octagonal pool which looks out to Sir Francis Drake Channel and the U.S. Virgins beyond, Villa Diamante is a real poets hideaway.

As is the norm with my blog, I don´t like to write too much about the villas I feature as it detracts from the great presentation of the properties on the main My Luxury Villas website and in true Blogtropolis tradition, I have gone out of my way to supply you with a link to the pages and the photographs.

Linkypoo to Villa Diamante.

Tortola - The best holiday destination in the Caribbean


Tortola

I am not even going to ask if you know where Tortola is! You don't know, that's a fact, unless of course you are part of that fantastic villa rentals company of worldwide repute, yes, Jamaican Treasures.

Some of my Bloglimpers may have stumbled across this pearl in the Caribbean sea, others are as thick as a Whale milkshake, so, I have slapped a map up top of the blog to give you an idea of where Tortola is. It is of course, part of the British Virgin Islands. Tortola can be found floating in the Caribbean, between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, east of Puerto Rico
According to the American CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) Tortola is described thus;

First inhabited by Arawak and later by Carib Indians, the Virgin Islands were settled by the Dutch in 1648 and then annexed by the English in 1672. The islands were part of the British colony of the Leeward Islands from 1872-1960; they were granted autonomy in 1967. The economy is closely tied to the larger and more populous US Virgin Islands to the west; the US dollar is the legal currency.
 
I prefer the My Luxury Villas descriptions of Tortola, villa by villa. My Luxury Villas, sister site to Jamaican Treasures but still the same great company, they have 25 or more luxury holiday villas on the island of Tortola and yours truly will place several of these on this blog for you to drool over.
 
In the meantime, why not relax and take a look at the other 1200 luxury villa rentals on the My Luxury Villas Website http://www.myluxuryvillas.com/

Villas in St Martin - Family holidays in the Caribbean Islands


The La Samanna Villas - Villa Tiaris

From time to time I get my "writers head" on. This is one such time. No wisecracks, no silly links, no banter, just hard facts.

Here is a great opportunity for you, your family or your friends to rent what are, some of the most fantastic holiday rentals villas in the Caribbean. They really are the business.

"Four beautifully appointed homes located on a bluff overlooking Baie Longue or Cupecoy beach with breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea."

That's how these properties are described on the My Luxury Villas website and as the name suggests, they are real luxury villas. Why not take a look for yourself and see what you could be living in this year for your well earned break. Villa Tiaris webpage

For my regular readers who are used to silliness, here is a link to keep you entertained. Silly persons link

Villas in St Martin - Golf course apartments St Martin



A Place in the sun? Yes please

"You gorra diversify son!" That was the advice my late father gave to me. "Don't put all your eggs in the one basket" he would say. "Likewise with money, put half of you money in a biscuit tin under the floorboards and put the other half on the first Greyhound to do a poo before the race.

I never took the "biscuit-tin-under-the-floorboards" advice, that was bloody silly. That Greyhound let me down very badly though!!

I am going to diversify on this blog though, because, I think that my Blogpeepers would get bored with looking at properties on Jamaica after a while, no matter how fantastic they are. So, here we go with some wonderful properties on the beautiful Caribbean Island of St Martin instead.


The Cliff H6 Views on three sides

Apartment H6 "The Cliff" at Cupecoy, St. Martin has great views over the Caribbean Sea, Mullet Bay golf course and beach (I would like to point out that the "Mullet" in Mullet Bay refers to the fish, not that eighties silly hairdo sported by Teds like Kajagoogoo! You don´t need to have a Mullet hairdo to play golf, no matter who says what!) 

This luxury holiday apartment in St Martin is exceptional and one of the finest apartments you can rent. It has so much going for it that I am going to throw you a link and you can read the descriptions and view more great photographs of this property. Link to apartment page.

There is also a bonus here. Guess which fantastic villa rentals company for St. Martin is promoting this wonderful property? Need you ask?

Holidays in the Caribbean island of St. Martin

Villa Allamanda, Orient Bay, St. Martin

Hillside Villa Allamanda sits in half an acre of lovely landscape exotic gardens.  This great vacation villa has a large pool and small pool with massage pump..Oooh! Nice!.

This villa is one of the Jamaican Treasures staff favourites and no wonder. There are breathtaking views from the villa and its terraces of the Atlantic Ocean, Orient Beach, and the islands of Pinel, Tintamarre, Green Cayes and St. Barthelemy. Villa Allamada commands one of the most sought after locations on the Island of St Martin.

Villa Allamanda would be very suitable for parties, weddings, family holidays and reunions. A large, spacious property with everything you will need for a great vacation in St Martin.

Anguilla - Holiday villa rentals Shoal Bay Anguilla


Anguilla, close to the Virgin Islands

LUXURY HOLIDAY VILLAS IN ANGUILLA
Villa Azure, Shoal Bay, Anguilla

One of the great things about writing this Blog for My Luxury Villas is that I get around the world. OK, not the real world, but in cyberspace. I also improve my knowledge of geography while I´m at it.

This blog entry I´m going to let you into a little secret, it's called Anguilla. Yes, that little piece of British overseas territory "close to the Leeward Islands and Lesser Antilles" so they tell me on Wikipedia.
Anyway, the secret I´m on about is the wonderful luxury villas that My Luxury Villas has on Anguilla and one that sticks out from everything else is Villa Azure which is in Shoal Bay, Anguilla.

Villa Azure (Blue Villa) was designed by world renowned Caribbean architect Carl Richards and it is a gated estate with the most spectacular views of the Caribbean. 5 luxury bedrooms and 5 luxury bathrooms, this place really is the Bee`s Knees. Don´t take my word, go to My Luxury Villas main webpage and you can see some great photographs of Villa Azure as well as all the details you would need to help you decide when to go to Anguilla.
