We absolutely enjoyed staying at Paradise Found. It’s locatin is convenient and safe, there is a gate with security at all times. It is Right on the beach and can see in from the balcony. Host was easy to communicate with and was accessible to answer any questions we had. Very accommodating and we appreciate all Elizabeth did for us (including the complimentary refreshments she left behind for us). I would certainly recommend this host as very thorough and trustworthy. The apartment is clean and comfortable. In fact the king size mattress felt exactly like my expensive mattress that I own in the USA. Pillows and linens were clean and comfortable. Kitchen was used numerous times to cook curry goat, stew chicken and Ackee and saltfish (and noodles on our lazy days) It has everything that you need. (Thank you for the straws, we sure needed a lot of them). AC cooled all rooms properly, we never felt uncomfortable there. We absolutely loved the balcony and spend most of our time there. The balcony shower was fun to use and had hot water at all times. We are certainly going to rebook this apartment for our future trips. I have visited Jamaica 14 times now and this is the best place I have stayed as in terms of convenience, cleanliness and comfortably. We love it and can’t wait to return to Paradise Found. Thank you so so much for providing us with this accommodation

This place is in the center of the town. It’s an easy walk to Margarittaville as well as the craft market. Staying here you have access to a private beach and the pool is always empty and clean. The restaurant is pretty good as well. If you have a child under 2 the stairs are a small issue. The Patio is a real treat and the owner is very attentive.

It was me and my mother in law staying here for 8 days and we felt very safe. The very first night it was quite loud out by the pool but we didn’t have really any issues after that. The staff was extremely friendly. The patio and outdoor shower is so relaxing and amazing. Wish the construction would finish because direct access to the beach would make this more than perfect.

My partner, best friend and her partner had the pleasure of staying here and we thoroughly enjoyed or time here. I would go back for sure. The only downside and this is a big one as we really wanted to be closer to the beach, but due to construction, we had to walk thru town to get to the beach after we stopped and obtained a form from the desk at reception. The beach itself is beautiful and it offers great views of the bay and the chance to see the cruise ships! The condo has 2 good sized bedrooms and 1 full and 1 half bath with an outdoor shower on the rooftop. The rooftop itself was wonderful with lots of sun but also had a cover for shade. I didn't get to try out the shower as my friends took the upstairs bedroom but they said they loved it and the chance to shower out of doors. The condo itself is a little snug especially the kitchen if you are a cook by choice, and no oven kept our options for meals limited but overall, it was very clean, well kept and the premises are just wonderful. We really enjoyed the pool and spent the majority of our time there. There are definitely lots of things to do close by and we even walked up to Dunn's River Falls and it was so worth the walk! It was beautiful scenery and lots of shade so not walking in full on sun made it a terrific adventure for our group. Elizabeth and Eric are great to communicate with and always got back to me with my questions or with any concerns. I would highly recommend booking this condo for those willing to be outdoorsy and who appreciate not spending their vacation inside. There are lots of good restaurants close by including one right across the street that offered up great food choices and many travelers frequented. Yes, it can be a little noisy at times as the construction on the beachfront is pretty close by but a pair of ear plugs made light of that. The air-conditioning kept the bedrooms cool for sleeping so that was a huge bonus. All in all, a great experience and I would recommend Paradise Found to anyone.

My husband and I visit Jamaica yearly to visit family as well as a vacation. I have stayed at many villas over the years and this one now is at the top of my list! The resort is well groomed and the security and staff is pleasant. The villa is beautiful! Well kept and it was a plus to have the phone to call the States and the local phone to use to contact family. The housekeeper is very nice and helpful. The balcony is breathtaking and I made it my business to enjoy the outdoor shower. The owners answered my questions very quickly and are professional. I will definitely book again. Thanks again!

Will stay here again.

Will stay here again.

We were very happy with our stay at this property, you can tell the owner cares and wants return guests. It was the perfect location with a beautiful view. We will for sure book this property again! Thank you Elizabeth for giving vacationers such a nice, clean place to call home while they are away from their own!

We definitely enjoyed staying at Elizabeth's property. Prior to our visit, she was always ready to answer any questions and address any concerns promptly. We loved the location of the condo - right in the center of town with all its restaurants/bars/food markets/souvenir, jewelry, and clothing shops. Property is very well maintained and very clean on the outside: there was a pool that we never got to use, small children playground, beach few steps away from the property itself. Property is well secured (if this is one of the concern). Condo itself was exactly as described - clean, spacious, tons of closet space, unique in architectural way (it's bi-level with spiral staircase-if you have large suitcases, unpack downstairs, much easier that way). We had 4 adults and 1 child staying with no problems. Elizabeth added an extra bed for a child and it worked out just perfect. The condo was well stocked with pots, pans, bowls, plates, etc. It had all the appliances we needed. I was a little apprehensive about lack of stove in the beginning, but got a hold of using hot plates and there was no problem. We definitely enjoyed the outdoor patio. It was great to have a glass of wine and dinner outside with a perfect, almost unobstructed, view of the ocean. We also loved the outdoor shower and used it quite a bit (condo has 1.5 bath). It eliminated morning/evening bathroom traffic. We also took advantage of a washing machine-traveling with a child, it always comes in handy (so grab some Tide Pods with you!). We did bunch of outdoor activities: rented a snorkeling boat right on the beach, drove to Dolphin Cove (5min), Dunn's River Falls (10min). There are plenty activities that we didn't get a chance to do, but will once return. WE LOVED THE CONDO AND WILL BE BACK! One con (has nothing to do with the condo itself). We are a family of swimmers and were very disappointing by Ocho Rios. Beach was very clean and nice, however, water was murky, shallow and rocky. We have been spoiled by the beaches and ocean in Montego Bay and Negril - can't compare to Ocho Rios. Nevertheless, we enjoyed staying at the condo, getting to know Ocho and its surrounding area, sampling local cuisine, and making new friends.

Very nice well kept property loved the outside shower

My parents and I had the pleasure of staying at the Paradise Found Condo from 06/20/16 to 06/25/16 and it truly was a positive experience. The Condo is well furnished and has all the amenities and more that anyone can ask for. It is also centrally located with an amazing view of the beach from the balcony. By the way, the beach is literally in your backyard. All the staff were extremely helpful and very hospitable am I must say we found paradise in Ocho Rios during our stay. Aaron C

This condo is located at Sandcastles Resort, Main Street Ocho Rios. We booked for 6 nights privately through homeaway.com and we have no complaints about our place. The condo looked EXACTLY like the photos shown on the home away listing and it was well upkept, clean and perfect for what we wanted/were looking for. We stayed on the 3rd floor and had a rooftop patio and outdoor shower, which was awesome. Ochi is a cruise ship port so you will have many views of one or more cruise ships each day. But our view was awesome; there were hills behind us with big homes, and the beach and sea in front of us. Sandcastles is secure; we felt plenty safe. The staff is friendly. We went to the beach every single day and “Jack” took care of us, setting up our chairs ($5 each for the day) and what-not. The grounds are very pretty; lots of palms, plants and flowers. The pool looked kind of lame to me, but there were plenty of kids and teens and grown ups that seemed to enjoy it; we just preferred the beach. We had breakfast one day at the restaurant upstairs and looked out over the property; it was decent. We never went into Sandbar restaurant, despite much cajoling from staff; it is an ALL WHITE room and there was nobody in there when we came through; it gave me the creeps. I will say that loud music from the street, from downtown Ochi, and from people partying at the pool kept me up late into the night more than once. I liked that the location was beachfront and on main street. Restaurants, ATMs, groceries, souvenirs, are all nearby. I would say property is only handicap-accessible if you stay on the ground floor; otherwise there are stairs and no elevator. We LOVED the fact that the beach was never too crowded, and that locals hung out there too. Since we stayed over Easter weekend, the kids were on break on Friday and we had a great time making friends with the friendly Jamaicans that came right up to us in the water and started asking our names and telling us all about their siblings and families:) John Crow’s across the street is nice for drinks and food and sometimes has live music; not too crowded. Miss T’s is hidden off main street and is an authentic Jamaican cuisine experience worth having; Evita’s Italian up the hill was the best non-Jamaican food we had and an adorable place. I would most definitely skip Ocean’s 11 unless you just want drinks. Drinks are great; food is not.

Our condo was perfect for our stay. We were 4 adults, and at first I worried that only one indoor shower would be a problem, but as it turned out, our guests insisted they wanted the outdoor shower and thoroughly enjoyed using it the entire stay. It is more private than it looks in the picture on the website and they absolutely loved it! The apartment had everything we needed, plenty of towels for the entire week, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. There was air conditioning, but we opened the windows and enjoyed the breezes most of the time, not needing to use the AC much. We kept saying how perfect it was for our needs. You can walk to many restaurants in town (and there are a lot of good ones!) We particularly liked Miss T's down the street a few blocks. Mama Marley's across the street and Margaritaville on the water were also enjoyable. Shopping practically right outside your front door is available although we were not big shoppers. Plenty of parking available if you rent a car which we did. The pool is also very nice, very close to the condo, and not crowded. Oh, also, the beach is also beautiful for nice walks. My friend ran along the water every morning. We all would highly recommend this condo if you are visiting Jamaica.

Lovely apartment. The beds are extremely comfortable with nice linens. Plenty of towels for both bathing and beach towels as well. The kitchen had everything we needed and I did not miss having an oven at all. Elizabeth provided beautiful tableware and cookware. The outdoor shower on the rooftop and the view from the rooftop was spectacular Sandbar (restaurant and bar in the hotel) had good food, very reasonably priced and the manager is very friendly and helpful. His jerk spice and sauce are homemade and was excellent. Renard the chauffeur is excellent and knowledgeable of the area. His rates were very good. I recommend using him for travel around the area. The housekeeper was also very nice and helpful. Had a very good stay. One restaurant we went to for seafood was the Roxborough. Really good, very well priced. A little way out of town. Another great jerk place to go is Scotchies. Very authentic and again, very reasonably priced.

We stayed at their vacation home for 10 days and loved it. The home was very clean, housekeeper and staff very friendly. The restaurant owner/staff on the property were very friendly, professionally and made us feel at home. I would definitely stay at Sandcastle again. Everything is in walking distance, beach minutes away and the waves are perfect for small children not too deep or rough. My 5 year old was at the beach/pool almost every day. The staff # 1 priority was making sure their guest are safe/comfortable and they did a fantastic job!

We had a great stay in this unit. The development was very nice, secure, and perfect location in Ocho Rios. Right on the beach and within walking distance to many shops, restaurants, and grocery stores. The unit was nicely decorated. Plenty of closet and storage space as well as good size bedrooms. The top-floor patio with outdoor shower was beautiful. Great place to relax, eat, drink, and enjoy the great views of the beach. Great vacation and very impressed over all! The Johnsons - Virginia

This condo in Ocho Rios was extremely nice. The condo is totally updated, including both bathrooms and the kitchen. The rooftop patio has a new tile shower and is wonderful. We found the condo to be just as the owner described it, very clean and fresh, and I'd recommend it to anyone. There is one main floor bedroom and bath, and there is a spiral staircase to the 2nd bedroom and bath that could be difficult for someone who has mobility issues.

I thought everything was great. The pool and beach was right there also the food was good too. I would recommend this to anyone and I am booking again. If you need to relax and unwind this is where you go! Dealing with management was easy.

This 2 bed apartment which offers stunning views over the beach and hills behind is set right in the middle of Ocho Rios. The accommodation offers all the basic home comforts a very good size fridge freezer for all those essential beverages and tipples. The kitchenette is well stocked with crockery and utensils to fit your needs. Cable TV is available in the lounge and bedrooms. A spiral staircase not suitable for very young children leads upto the second bedroom and private sun patio with outside shower and washing machine. A very comfortable home from home, with sufficent clean towels and fresh bedding on request. The property has two bathrooms, the shower being over the bath on the first floor of the property. The owner Elizabeth ensures a warm welcome to all her guests and is contactable via telephone installed in the property. Free WiFi is available to enable full access to social media, emails and direct contact to family. The apartment is situated in the grounds of Sandcastles Hotel which is secure and welcoming. There is a small swimming pool on the hotel grounds suitable for all ages and the grounds are well maintained and clean. A visit to John Crows right across the road from the hotel is essential where Barry and Annakay are waiting to offer a warm Jamaican welcome. Jerk Centre, shops for duty free, KFC and Burger King for those wanting a rest from Jerk Chicken are close by. Very close to the finest attractions in Jamaica (Dunns River Falls and Dolphin Cove) and a constant offer of taxi rides are in abundance. Only use taxis with RED number plates to be safe. Overall a comfortable, clean, well equipped holiday home, within walking distance to the best Ochi has to offer, owned by a very nice, welcoming lady to who goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is a memorable one.
