It was ten years ago I drove through all fourteen parishes of Jamaica in search of a vacation home. St. Mary was the very last parish we visited. Off the beaten track—just a short turn from the main highway—we found a house tucked quietly at the top of a mountain. It belonged to an English gentleman whose children had grown and moved away. Surrounded by tall trees and thick greenery, it felt hidden, almost shy.
At first, I thought, this isn’t for me. But then, through the garden trees, something caught my eye. I looked again—really looked—and there it was: the entire coastline stretching out before me. I paused and listened. I could hear the waves.
I was invited upstairs to see the view from the top-floor balcony. When the door opened, I was stunned. A sense of peace washed over me as I watched the rolling waves and felt the soft tingle of salt from the ocean breeze. I knew instantly that if the grounds were cleared, they would reveal a beautiful garden—and that this place could become something truly special.
I imagined a desk by the window—my window—where I could watch the sunrise paint the morning sky and see the colors of the sunset settle gently over the sea. In that moment, I decided this would be my home. It was large enough to welcome friends and family, and I knew I wanted to share this peace with others.
Today, this villa has become more than my home—it is a retreat venue, a country-style Workcation escape, and a welcoming space for vacations, flexible workspace use, wellness programs, weddings, anniversaries, creative retreats, and special events.
I am honored to share the beauty of this mountain-top ocean view with guests from around the world. Whether you come to relax, create, celebrate, or work in a peaceful setting, I look forward to welcoming you and helping you experience the calm, clarity, and inspiration this place continues to give me

With floral arranging being one of my favorite hobbies, this is the perfect place for me to share that talent with you whenever I can.
We welcome groups for special occasions and create true country-style, unique, and artistic décor.
In this photo, Bianca and I enjoyed building a natural driftwood arch using pieces collected from the beach just three minutes from the house. I love driftwood art, and it was a joy to design this for a lovely couple from Canada who renewed their vows overlooking the sea in 2025.
If you like driftwood hunting, this is the place to be.
Share your theme and colors with me, and we will do my best to bring your vision to life
