I wanted to write this review from the moment we checked in!
Loly! After arriving later than expected, with a really late last-minute booking, the Host, Kwo(?) was there ready to meet us and got us set up with no hassle (at least for us).
We got there at night so the beauty of the property wasn't fully evident until the morning and ohhhh the view is incredible! We stayed two nights in Pirates Den, which faces the water, so both mornings it was a joy to look thru the doors or windows and...

After a handful of stays here, this definitely feels like a home away from home. If you're looking for a traditional hotel experience with typical hotel amenities, this may not be the spt for you (although it still may be - they have god wifi, TVs, a proper full kitchen, a pool and an onsite restaurant), but I will stay here every time I visit the Kingston area due to the good energy, friendly communication, beautiful property and location, the yummy breakfast - and the proximity to the things I...

My dad and I went to sky's villa for an event and we were wonderfully surprised by the beauty and amenities of the property. The design of the common areas was lively and the rooms' decor were lovely. We were also pleasantly surprised when the "continental" breakfast turned out to be a full jamaican breakfast. Big up Sky's!! I would definitely book again if I'm going to be in the area.

This hotel is considered my family hotel because that's how they made me feel everytime I stayed at this hotel. The front desk staff they are super super welcoming and I love them all. My 7th time at this hotel since 2025 and I continue to give this hotel a 5 star.

Terra Nova has a charm that many other hotels in Kingston lack. The staff is warm and personable, they will help you with what ever you need.It is ultimately the quintessential go to hotel in Kingston for me. True Jamaican hospitality! If you enjoy Jamaican culinary I would highly recommend.

The Blue Window restaurant menu need more selection of food especially Jamaican crusine. Checkin needs to be improve. Too demanding especially when I paid for 2 person in room. The Front Desk was insisting on other person name even when the petson eventually did not make it to the hotel. Concern was about the unknown person may show for breakfast in my case this did not happen. I was the only person that was in my room but the Expedia reservation automatic place for two petson. Too much emphasis...

Ms Jodi and Mr Jerry were the most gracious hosts. They were only a phone call away and ready to help. They had a poster board with a list of local shopping and site seeing sites. We shopped for our groceries and cooked our own meals. Our space felt so comfortable we were able to focus on our trip without the stress of worrying about being in cramped spaces or being a bother to others.

Staff was courteous and attentive to every situations. Breakfast was served in every capacity. Not to mention the stew fish in coconut. It was finger licking. Keep up the good work. Thumbs up. Sorry about other comments. The staff gives my family excellent service. I would come back again. Mom enjoyed herself. Despite our grief we add a smile each day. Thank you all for listening and sharing with us through our grief. Warm hospitality. Thanks again. From Sandra and Dorothy. PEACE
