Dunn's River Falls the number one tourist attraction on the island. Where people climb the famous falls with this is a fantastic day out.

PRICE:

They are over-priced with old, boring interior and exterior furniture some of their exteriors look decent but usually, they are let down by the interiors of their villas.

Villa Patiently Waiting was a great find for me and my family. The host communicated with me immediately following the booking, and the Property Manager, Chris, was always available by phone to answer any questions. The Villa is clean, spacious, and quiet; a great place for a large group to gather for family events. A very special thanks to Chris for his warm and welcoming attitude. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!!

It was a Great Location, 5 min walk to the beach. The beach is beautiful, with great snorkeling potential and has a very good restaurant. The villa was clean, the pool was great and Chris was really nice and helped wherever he could. Chris cooked lobster-dinner for us and it was beyond amazing. We had a rental car and the drive from the airport to the villa was easy. (Only drive the highway and take a left turn at the end, right before the RIU entrance is the Mammee bay estates) All you would need was a close ride with the car. Supermarket, Starbucks, kfc, Pizza Hut, gas station, atm- all within 5 minutes. Lots attractions in a 30 minute range. The area felt very safe to us. We enjoyed our stay at patiently waiting very much and we would definitely come back. We traveled with 3 adults and 4 kids.

Not as advertised.
I would NOT rent this villa again. It's ok if you need a place to rest your head, then venture out for the entire day, but that's about it. The decor and the comfort of the beds were the only things that I would consider satisfactory. Internet was down so we're had no connectivity, and the big TVs they advertise were of no use. I requested chef services. Prop Manager said he would do the cooking as the advertised chef wasn't there anymore. Advertised one price per day, he charged me a higher price for one meal, plus cost of ingredients. The hot tub (which was advertised as an amenity) had no water in it. The lamps in the master bedroom were either broken or not working correctly. The accordion door on the master bath was broken. One of the sinks was backed up. One of the showerheads was taped together. There were no face clothes or hand towels. They advertise for 16 persons dining however they do not have 16 place settings in the kitchen. The worst part, I felt like I was being stalked while I was there. Micro-managing guests is not ok when they paid to stay in your establishment and weren't doing anything unreasonable or unknown. I communicated the plans we had for our stay ahead of time. there was no reason for the constant check-ins, attitude, and scolding from the property manager. I understand that you have a job to do, but knowing my whereabouts at all times, making it seem as if I was supposed to check in with you when I left or came back, and scolding me because we arrived late and/or had people moving in and out (when it had already been communicated to you, and you were aware it would be happening) is uncalled for and unprofessional. like I said... if you want a place for a big group to just rest their heads and/or go for a dip in a pool, this is for you. If you'd like quality hospitality and a place to relax and enjoy accommodations, this is not the place for you.

Lovely and Beautiful!
We really enjoyed our stay here! Chris was very nice, helpful, and accommodating! Everything is solar in the place so be prepared for cool showers at times. And if you need anything, definitely turn to Chris because he can make arrangements of all sorts for you! The beach was literally a 5 min walk and the pool was right out the door! This is a perfect place to stay and I will definitely be staying again if I should return to Ocho Rios!

Villa Patiently Waiting is a diamond in the rough. Close walking distance to the beach, great pool, gated and locked. Our group felt very safe. Our caretaker Chris was amazing, works hard to keep the place clean and did everything he could to accommodate our group. Cooked us a very delicious meal. Shout out to Alvin the owner for making everyone feel like we were at home. We would definitely stay here again.

Great family get together for the holidays. The house is clean and comfortable - we were provided with a freshen up cleaning midway through our 10-day stay( and the garden is lovely to walk around in (we were even able to pick two breadfruits for our and salt fish. A+ location - We were within walking distance from the beach where we could enjoy the beach chairs and have a drink or meal at the charming neighborhood beach club/restaurant. Communication with the property manager was excellent - he was always available to help out and answer questions without being in any way intrusive (which has been my experience in other villas I have stayed at).

Property needs updating
description misleading about the pool, it is shared with others rather than the property we rented, the property needs updating especially the kitchen and bathrooms no tea spoons was available, considering it sleeps up to 10 people, that was poor with the amount for the rental they collect they could more than afford to update it.
