Jamaica Villas Lonely Planert

JAMAICA VILLAS LONELY PLANET

Negril Lighthouse


There are many articles on Jamaica, millions I would say and that is no exaggeration. I'm a Jamaica Villas Blogger so I trawl the Internet looking for items and articles, news and photographs relating to Jamaica so I should know.

It isn't hard to find these articles and items on Jamaica, a simple search of Google will give you everything you want, from links to the Jamaica Observer online newspaper to any amount of Blogs, chat rooms and recipe websites.

As per normal with me, today I was searching the Internet for Jamaica articles of interest and I found one that I must have passed a hundred times and never thought of visiting, its called Lonely Planet. This is a great article entitled "Introducing Jamaica".

The article is by a chap called Paul Clammer:

"Before visiting Jamaica, I hadn’t realized my preconceptions of the country were firmly out of date – somewhere between the troubles of the 1970s and Bob Marley’s last LP. Touching down for the first time, the scales fell from my eyes. I’ve rarely been to a country so viscerally alive (Kingston dancehall street parties have to be experienced to be believed) and so achingly beautiful: just how many waterfalls hidden in rainforests can one country have? Smooth like rum and hot like a spicy plate of jerk, Jamaica ensnared me instantly. The media might call it dangerous, but the worst crime you’re likely to encounter is having your heart stolen."

Jamaica Villas, Sea Haven at Discovery Bay.

Views from Sea Haven Villa at Discovery Bay in Jamaica

Discovery Bay is a town in Saint Ann Parish on the northern coast of Jamaica. The city is also known locally as Dry Harbour Bay, because it sits in the shadow of the Dry Harbour Mountains in St. Ann. There is a dispute as to whether Christopher Columbus first landed in Discovery Bay or Sevilla la Nueva (east of Discovery Bay) in 1494. Near to the city are Puerto Seco Beach and several historic sites, such as the Green Grotto Caves and Columbus Park. 

Visitors to the Green Grotto Caves can see relics of the native TaĆ­no Arawak lifestyle there. It is said that many Spaniards escaped the English invasion of 1655 through secret passages in the caves with the help of Arawaks and African slaves, in exchange for their freedom.

Jamaica Villas for vacations in Port Antonio in Jamaica

JAMAICA VILLAS AT PORT ANTONIO, JAMAICA

Goblin Hill, Port Antonio, Jamaica
Gremlin Hill, another beautiful Jamaica Villa
 
What’s in a name? Well, it depends on what the name is, I think. For example, if I were to tell you there were some excellent luxury villas for rent in Goblin Hill, you could be forgiven for thinking we were advertising on behalf of Bilbo Baggins and his Hobbit friends, but you would be wrong.

Likewise, Gremlin Hill would send you off on the wrong tangent because these are actually luxury villas for vacations in Jamaica and are located in and around the beautiful Port Antonio on the north coast.

Take a look at the selection of luxury villas, and apartments, hotels and luxury resorts available from www.personalchoicejamaica.com

Negril Lighthouse

Negril Lighthouse in Negril Jamaica
 
Negril Lighthouse, Negril, Jamaica
 

One of the places recommended to visitors to Villas Sur Mer at Negril in Jamaica is the beautiful Negril Lighthouse.
Negril Lighthouse was built in 1894 1.5 miles south by south east of the westernmost tip of the island of Jamaica by the French company Bubbler & Bernard. It is one of the earliest concrete lighthouses.
Negril Lighthouse has a marvellous way of keeping steady during earthquakes, it has a massive tank of water at its base which is kept full, this keeps the Lighthouse straight and stable in the event of mother natures wrath, It really is one of the ‘must see‘ sights on your Jamaica vacation.
Make sure you check out the fantastic prices of the Villas Sur Mer Lagoon Cottages and seaside Villas. If you are considering taking a vacation or holding a wedding reception then Villas Sur Mer is an excellent choice of venue. Please visit the main website http://www.villassurmer.com

Jamaica Villas - Villa Amanoka at Discovery bay in Jamaica

 
Jamaica Villas at Discovery Bay
 
Amanoka Villa - Discovery Bay - Jamaica
I have written hundreds, nay, thousands of pages in my time on Blogs extolling the virtues of this location and that location, I have praised villas from the ground upwards and all with the utmost sincerity but I feel I have to go just a little bit further with villa. Amanoka.

Amanoka is a Sanskrit word meaning “peaceful home” and when you take a look around this delightful Jamaica villa you will see that the name is well suited.
Villa Amanoka is set in the delightful Discovery Bay on the north side of the island of Jamaica, not far from everything that is going on and close enough to all the very best tourist and cultural sites that Jamaica has to offer.
7 beautiful bedrooms and so many features that a trip to the main Personal Choice Jamaica website will list everything available but the property is fully staffed, has a beachfront location and views that you would bite your own arm off to see, I wouldn’t advise you do that though, it would make using the tennis courts a little difficult.
