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 NÂș97

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

Jamaica Villas - Visit Jamaican Treasures on Facebook PT II

JAMAICA VILLAS - BLOGGING IS THE ART OF REAL MADNESS


AAaagghhh! - Look what you made me do cat!
I have just realised that I had intended to write about Jamaican Treasures, the best Jamaica Villas rental company in the world in my last post on the Blog but I got completely carried away and forgot to even mention it once. It goes to prove that spending your days looking at a keypad can send you a little bit loco (Some might say a lot loco!) I´ll just add that the late, great Spike Milligan did not actually strangle that little moggie...he ate it! (relax, it´s a joke!!!!)

So, here is the posting that you should have read...more or less.

Great news! (He shouts in a very excited voice, hoping some fool will hear him!) You can keep up to date with Jamaican Treasures on Facebook, that social media site that everyone uses for playing Farmville and many other daft games (I wondered what was going on when my old headmaster asked if I had any spare pigs????).

Anyway, I digress, we have a wonderful page on Facebook for everyone that wants to keep up to date with what Jamaican Treasures is doing, I have to warn you, there will also be photos of babies, pet dogs, strange looking people and other sillyness but burried in there will be updates on the newest Jamaica villas we have, postings for any special villas offers, bargain holiday deals for Jamaica, Thailand, Mexico and other places and maybe the odd silly video.

Please give us a visit https://www.facebook.com/jamaicantreasures#!/ and become a friend, we would love to see your happy snaps and wedding photos from any holidays you have had especially in the luxury villas we offer.

There, that's me straight with what I was going to blog.

JAMAICA VILLAS ON FACEBOOK

Jamaica - A truly Colourful place

I know I have been chuntering on a bit about our Jamaica Villas but what do you expect from a bloke who works for the best luxury villa rentals company in the world? I couldn´t very well talk about horses or growing leeks, nor would you like me to.

I do try to vary the Jamaica villas blog by adding things about Bali, Mexico, Thailand and the other exotic locations we have properties in and I also like to encourage you (yes! YOU!) the blog reader to participate by sending me your happy snaps of your holidays, your weddings, the bar you run, the hotel you say at and anythin else you consider would be of interest to someone looking for information on Jamaica, Bahamas, Caribbean, Mexico et al.

I love happy snaps, people enjoying themselves on holiday and peeps getting married or drunk (or married and drunk) I am also a bit of a culture vulture and I like nothing better than photographs of churches, monuments, statues and other interesting items that give you an insight to the people who built and live in the towns and cities you visit.

If anyone reading has any good shots and cares to send them to me with a little description, I´d be happy to add them to this Jamaica Blog. It all helps to keep the world informed.

Jamaica Villas - Jamaica villas for rent Silver Sands

VILLAS IN JAMAICA

Dukes Hideaway - Silver Sands - Jamaica
There have always been people, I´m not one of them, that like a little bit of seclusion, quietness, to be at one with nature, you catch my drift? Of course you do, your not thick. People like the beautiful Greta "I vant to be Alorn!" Garbo to Howard Hughes, they all want the place to themself for a bit of P&Q.

At Jamaican Treasures we are happy to tell you that we have just the very place at Silver Sands, Jamaica and it's called Duke's Hideaway. Heres what we have to say on our website at My Luxury Villas.

Duke's Hideaway is a lovely beachside cottage with 3 charming bedrooms. All bedrooms are air-conditioned for your comfort and also has ceiling fans. This villa belongs to the gated community of Silver Sands, and has the use of the Silver Sands tennis court and club house. You will be very comfortable here in the Duke's Hideaway. As usual, here is the link to the photos and all the villa details LINK

Her Majestesty the Queen and her Husband The Duke of Edinburgh visit the island and stayed at Silver Sands, the two cottages were named Duke's Cottage and the next one Queen's Cottage, thus, Duke's Hideaway.

Now I don't think everyone knows where Silver Sands is so I will bung the map on again so you can see exactly where you will be staying when you book this wonderful villa. Look, here it is Below.


Thanks to Oh Boy Jamaica for the loan of the Map ;-)
