Just returned from a lovely week in Negril. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We visited with our children and grandkids. This home is in the heart of Negril- walk to beach, very short walk to fruit/veggie vendors, and grocery. Our stay would not have been the same without Karen and Marvin who not only fed us incredible meals, made great suggestions on activities, restaurants, etc. TAKE THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS! you will not be sorry! This is not a location for those that want a "resort" experience- this is for those want to experience the local culture and food. Beach is great, close though a little walk... Property has a nice pool. This villa can sleep LOTS of people. We felt very safe in the area, and were very welcomed by Karen and Marvin. There are many things to do in the area, and they will not steer you wrong. The only con I would say is that we may have used a few other utensils, pots in the kitchen. If you want a Jamaican experience - this is your place. I can't say enough about Karen and Marvin- such great people and interested in enhancing your stay!

We had a very pleasant stay. Everything was clean, secure, and we felt very much at home. Owner was always available and very helpful with regards to choice of foods, tours, local knowledge and sites to visit. We recommend Tripical Breeze for all those who wish to take their "home " with them on vacation.

Looks nice upon arrival, but looks are deceiving, unfortunately. NO property manager. Desroy no longer works there. Rooms unmade, pool full of algae. I cried the Night we arrived. Make sure you know what should be provided. Otherwise, it may not be.

We were a group of 5 from Switzerland. The house is in between the 7 mile beach and the cliffs. You could walk to the beach, we usually took our rental car to sun coast which is a good spot on 7 mile beach. The house is really nice. The bedrooms are really clean. The staff are always around and are always helpful. It is not a luxurious house, but is has all you need, it's save and a great alternative to the resorts.

Six guys from an Ottawa area hockey team all in our 50's spent super bowl week at Tropical Breeze. The house was nice and clean and plenty big enough for 6 guys. We took advantage of having our evening meals prepared for us and was the food ever good. I would highly recommend this option as each meal had a local twist and was really fantastic. The pool has lots of room to sit around and is cleaned daily it seemed. All 6 of us had a great time at Tropical Breeze and are planning a return trip. Dave

What a great time we had at Tropical Breeze. Karen and Desroy and Marvin made us feel like we were in the "real" Jamaica not in some resort in Miami. It was a perfect place for me and my kids and my grandkids to spend the holiday. Karen even invited one of the two year olds from the nerighborhood, to play with our two year old grandson in the kiddie pool. The beach was a short walk and the market was even closer. We bought the meal plan which was a deal. Marvin is a great cook. He taught us how he makes jerk chicken and we are doing our best to recreate it back in Chicago. Desroy was there every day to make sure all was well and to direct us to everything we needed. Sunday morning was lovey with the singing from the church down the road. We will be back, especially because I hear Karen is adding an extra air conditioner in the kitchen/living room for us wussie folks from the US.

Six of us just came back from the Tropical Breeze and had a wonderful time swimming in their pool, enjoying Jamaican cuisine, and exploring the surroundings. The villa is in the center of town with a very short walk to the 7 mile beach so on your way to or from the beach you can exchange money, visit convenience stores, grab fresh fruit & vegetables, ice cream and fresh jamaican patties, or do a little shopping. Marvin the chef (and Karen the owner) cooked us amazing meals (the best we had all week), Desroy looked after our every need and was always smiling, and Karianne was there every day keeping the place immaculate. To know each of the staff by name tells you how personal and welcoming everyone was. I would recommend the Tropical breeze to anyone looking to enjoy the culture of Negril instead of a cookie cutter resort. They treat you like family, the villa is lovely and modern and very affordable. You could have some lazy days without leaving the villa or wander off to the cliffs or beach action within minutes. We'd go back in a flash.

Tropical Breeze was a very authentic and unique way to experience Negril. There were six of us (three couples) and we used the main level of the Villa – which has four large bedrooms, two washrooms and a kitchen and living area. It’s very clean, nicely tiled and very comfortable. Karen was an amazing host, Desroy was fantastic for absolutely anything you might want, and Marvin cooked us very authentic Jamaican cuisine with really great flavours; and Kerrianne kept it all nice and clean for us. They are a great group – they’re there for you whenever you need them, but are in no way intrusive or in the way. We knew we had this team there for us, but were still surprised at the level and quality of service we received. Whatever we needed, they made it happen – very accommodating and easy to get along with. The outdoor property was also amazing – a really nice porch to enjoy our meals and evenings; a big pool with lots of lounge chairs and tables; and a large patio to hang out on. It was cool to experience being right “in town” and being around the locals; yet it was a quick 7-minute walk and you’re on the start of the most beautiful 7 mile beach – with lots of places to grab a lounge chair and hang out, grab some lunch, or do some of the great beach experiences (glass bottom boats, catamaran tours, parasailing, etc.). You really get the best of both worlds by staying at Tropical Breeze – the real authentic Negril feel, as well as being so close to what I think is the most beautiful beach. Would definitely go again! Thanks Karen, Desroy, Marvin and Kerrianne for a terrific vacation.

If you are looking for a really special vacation that includes a "real" experience of Negril, Tropical Breeze is the place. We had 4 couples who traveled from the Midwest of the US and spent a week. We had never traveled together as a group and all enjoyed every second. The house is updated and clean. Having a personal chef who cooked Jamaican breakfast and dinner every day (this is if you would like it and for only the cost of the food based on the actual receipts from the market) was a treat. It is a relatively short walk to the 7 mile beach, walking through a short segment of town. Karen the owner was there during our visit-she was very gracious and attentive to our needs and questions and arranged all of our excursions. Desroi, her assistant, was also extremely nice and attentive as was Marvin who helped cook. Jazzbo who drives you the 1 hour and 20 min. from the airport for only $20 per person is also a real luxury. He is so nice and experienced and handles the crazy roads with ease. He also drives you to excursions that are farther away if you'd like-this is a huge benefit. Overall, this is not an all inclusive type experience-for us it was much better and more what we were looking for. More flexibility and more "real" and yet a wonderfully nice and extremely affordable location that is clean and supportive to help you have the type of experience you want.

I recently had the great opportunity to stay with a group of girlfriends at Tropical Breeze Villa, in Negril. Everything was just as we had hoped for. We had done the resort type trip and was looking for something that would leave us with a true feeling that we had visited another country, rather than an Americanized version of a Caribbean vacation. To our delight, this was EXACTLY what we received! :) Upon our arrival we were greeted with friendly resident staff, whom always made sure we were comfortable and content, for the complete duration of our stay. Our first impression was a home away from home, with a cultural feel and relaxing vibe. The rooms were all very clean, including kitchen and all four bathrooms. The housekeeper, Sophie, is a wonderful person, and very polite. She kept the villa clean and tidy, while respectfully maintaining our privacy. We appreciated that! Meals were made by the on-site master chef, and was a definite highlight for our group of 'foodie' ladies, and the BEST I've personally had in the Caribbean! Any inquiries we had about entertainment were fully answered, with varying options to please our dynamic group of women. Whether lounging poolside (on-site), or at the nearby beautiful white sand beach, this villa is located in the heart of Negril and we were always just minutes away from thrilling entertainment; Including: Rick's Café (a MUST), MargaritaVille, riverboat rafting, 7 mile beach, nature hikes, bird watching and more! We were even offered rides for a reasonable price, to any of these excursions by their friendly driver, Jazzbo. He was able to point out all the best attractions! All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay, and our recommending it to our friends! - C.K

A group of five of us stayed at Breeze's Villa for Christmas through New Years. It has been over a decade since we were last in Negril and I must say the small town has grown! The Villa owner called a few times while we were there to make sure everything was irie. She truly cared that we were having a great time. Breeze's staff, Sophie, Shrimpy and Alex were AMAZING. We arrived as guests and left as friends! The pool was immaculate and cared for everyday; a definate highlight having a private pool. The grounds were maintained daily with an incredible selection of Flora and Fauna and the ancient reefs around the pool were very cool as well. As another reviewer mentioned ear plugs would be a good option but we were there during a major festive season and lets be honest the Jamaicans know how to party. Looking forward to visiting again.

This guesthouse was excellent. A large group of us went down and we had splendid time. The owner Karen called several times to make sure we were enjoying our stay. This isn't typical in Jamaica. She really cares about her guests. The house itself has several washrooms (with hot water!) and a fully equipped kitchen. The swimming pool is large and clean with great views. There are fruit trees growing all over the grounds and the beauty is breath taking. The beach is a few minutes walk, lots of stores and banks nearby. When staying on the beach getting around is a pain - but not here - everything is in easy reach. The kitchen was one of my highlights. It really has everything you need to make great meals. The fridge is large enough to keep both food and beer (lots of beer) and its cold (once again not typical in Jamaica). As an aspiring chef it was fun to walk down to the fruit/vegetable stands just a few steps from the gate. The ladies that sell explained to me how to cook everything they sold. They let me try all the fruits I had never tried before. I was was in a very happy place, here. Then I took the five minute walk to the fish market, hoping to buy some Red Snapper. That day the Red Snapper weren't biting so instead I bought some Silver Snapper. What a stroke of luck - it was terrific! Its easy to make great meals with the fresh ingredients only a few steps away. The hosts were Nolan and Sophie. You can't find more friendly warm people anywhere. I would say they really did make our stay memorable. We wouldn't have had half the experience we did without them. Nolan and I cooked a few meals together (he is a blue ribbon cook himself). If you don't feel like cooking, he will gladly cook for you. His jerk chicken and jerk pork are 5 star! If you need something special, or need a quick ride some where, no problem. We arrived as guests and left as friends. A few other things about staying at Tropical Breeze...Wi-fi works great, there is AC (but we didn't ever use it), there are no plastic chairs (chairs are wicker and much more comfortable than plastic...I hate plastic chairs). Speaking of furniture, the pool deck has all brand new loungers and chairs. Very nice. There weren't any kids on the property before us, but the kids were made to feel very welcome and there was plenty for them to do. The beds were really comfortable and the whole place was spotlessly clean. The front patio is where we spent most of our time, just seems to be the meeting place. All in

Our group had a wonderful time at Tropical Breezes. Nolan and Sophie were wonderful and we learned alot aobut Jamaica chatting with them. Nolan was a wonderful cook and they were very generous in driving us around Negril and to the beach. We had the two rooms with AC which was a must. It would be nice to have AC in the rest of the house. We are from an area of dry heat to getting used to the humidity was tough. The bathrooms could use better lighting. Overall we had a great time and enjoyed the house and pool. We liked the location and the ability to walk to town and the beach. It was very safe to walk around and we even walked around in the evening. We felt very safe. Thanks for the wonderful stay and the great meals. Love trying the local cuisine.

I arrive in the morning to a great Jamaican smile by Nolan and Sophie, which was very helpful with ower bags to the rooms. The room was very clean, and cool with only a fan, for which I did not mind as I do not like to sleep with AC, plus I always travel with bugs repellent anyway to the Tropics.Yes a masquito net would be nice but not necessary as there where nets on the windows and that was good enough for me. We quickly unpack and did a short tour of the property then we head to the beach by Nolan. Which he and Sophie was also always there for us to take us too and from the beach and much more. The property was well kept and clean plus the pool was always clean and refreshing, Yes there is a Night club next door, but been in Jamica there is always some form of music some where playing and when in rome do what the romans do, just go with the flow and you will enjoy it, plus once you are in side the sound will not trouble you anyway. A short walk down the road will take you to the middle of Negril down town, where there is great resturants, food shopping, taxi plus twenty mins walk to the beach and much more. This property is a work in progress where it is wonderful and charming to stay in Negril, and I will recommend this property to all my friends heading down to Negril Jamaica "Yea Man".

PROS: The house is ok if you aren't going to spend a lot of time in it. It is clean and has good sunlight. Bedrooms have nice large closets. The pool is very very nice. The beach is close, only a 10 min walk. There is plenty of good food nearby. Taxis are plentiful as well. The house is very well situated. CONS: There is NO AC in most rooms. Only two bedrooms have AC. The "living room" and other bedrooms have nothing, just a fan. So if it is hot, you are in big trouble. There is no insect netting on the main door, so you can't even leave the door open to cool the house. If you sit outside on the nice porch, you have to worry about the insects. Next to the house is a very loud nightclub. So if you can't sleep with noise, bring earplugs. You can't close the windows since you need to cool the room. You will be annoyed by the lack of mirrors in the bedrooms, especially when you are trying to get dressed to attend a wedding. BEST THING ABOUT THE HOUSE: The staff, Nolan and Sophie, are awesome. They were both very very helpful. Nolan is a very good cook so you should have a few home cooked meals. Nolan gave us a lot of rides around town. Sophie did a great job of keeping things clean. The two of them made our week much more enjoyable.

Had a very enjoyable time in Negril.Villa is clean and well maintainedwith friendly and helpful staff.Other guests were very friendly and polite.Close to all amentities one might need(malls,grocery stores,restaurants etc.)Very short walk to the 7 mile beach or just sit around/swim in the gorgeous pool.Plenty to do in surrounding area,defiantly wasn,t bored.Would recommend a stay here to anyone.

I arrived at Tropical Breeze early Febuary and had a wonderful experience. My friends and I enjoyed the villa. We would wake up in the early morning with a swim in there beautiful clean pool just steps away and then would walk down to the beach for its sunsets. I enjoyed the convience of the grocery store around the corner and the resturants around the area. The place was very clean and we all felt safe and comfortable. The staff was always there for us and always tended to our needs. I highly recommend Tropical Breeze for solo travelers or families. We all had a great Jamaican experience and planing to go back. very soon.

I Must Admit I was Impressed at the value i got for my money when staying at tropical Breeze Quest House In Jamaica. I am A Frequent traveller,but this was my first trip To Jamaica. The Property and Accomodations were very well maintained with daily maid Service. I Experienced alot more than I Feel I would Have Staying At A resort, Although the property is Also Privately enclosed which gives the property a Very Quiet, Relaxed, Peaceful Vibe. The Staff were friendly and very helpful introducing me to the Jamaican Culture, which I Must say is very unique and fascinating. The House itself was very Nice and Clean. The beautiful Pool Was My Favourite Part,cooling off From The Scorching Sun. If Ever coming To Jamaica Again I would definitely consider staying at Tropical Breeze again....

Our trip was a wonderful girls get away that we will not soon forget.. We we were picked up by the Tropical Breeze's driver, Jazbo. He was an awsome guy, good driver, helpful, and super friendly. We went all over the place, having a good time while feeling safe.The house keeper did an amazing job keeping the already spotless place even cleaner! We were oringinal wanted to go with the self catering deal but after we ate our first meal was perperped and tasted soo good we add the meal plan( so worth it!) I Got the best tan of my life by the pool side! lol We were also impressed by the location of the villa, it was great, we could walk to many places on our own (iclunding the beach!!) Over it was a blast!!!!!
