The location next to the sea

Loved everything

Jake's is gorgeous. I've never stayed in my own private seaside bungalow. We went to bed to sunsets over the crashing waves and woke to stunning morning views. The outdoor private shower was also a big plus. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. And each dwelling had it's own unique flair. We'll be back to check out the other ones next time! Thank you Jakes!

Amazing location and fantastic rooms. Food at restaurant was great with regularly changing menu.

For the price of the rooms I would have expected breakfast to be included, a la carte breakfast was expensive.

The staff were attentive, the location was authentic, the food was great, overall the experience was very peaceful

Sometimes the hot water didn’t always working

We arrived late in the evening on a public holiday after the restaurant had closed, but we had children and traveled in a large group. The helpful guy at reception (sorry can’t remember his name) spoke to the chief and arranged something for us! He then drove us around to our amazing villa (Tree House). The staff here were also excellent, not in your face, but not stand-offish. Thank you all.

The amenities were a bit scarce, but I’m sure I would have been accommodated if I had asked for more. Also, a mini fridge wouldn’t have gone amiss in the master room.

We like that it was different, and naturalistic, clean and fresh. There wasn't any artificial feeling to the room and we love that. It was a weekend taken back to our roots and culture. Thank you guys. And your staff they are all very happy and welcoming people. 🙏

Not too crowded it's like a hidden gem ✨️ it's a great place to go for a stressed free vacation.

lovely villa

it was off site -half an hour walk to main hotel

nostalgic. Gives that vintage Island feel .

Great and very reasonable Restaurant. Wonderful location and setting. Our cottage was spacious and well appointed. The complex is filled with mature and interesting plantings and trees. The views are unsurpassable. We didn't get a chance to use the spa (reserve as early as possible) but the setting, open to the sea, was magnificent.

The pool was more of a dipping pool than a real pool that could be used for exercise. It was surrounded by a great deal of foliage and debris constantly fell into it. While the foliage and trees on the property were amazing, and the pool was skimmed regularly, it was not particularly inviting to guests who wanted to swim. Kids loved the pool.

We got to stay in a lovely off property villa which was perfect for a family. Nice pool and great rooms and design. next time we will try to book something on property perhaps.

House was flawless. A little away from the hotel and beach.

loved the staff! such an amazing team of people.

little remote - not much nearby.

the kitchen area and cups

Great location and very friendly staff. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I really enjoyed my time at Jakes and can't wait to visit again.

loved octopussy suites .

there’s nothing I didn’t like

A peaceful bungalow with a beautiful view and the sound of the sea when you sleep Good restaurant around and a luscious tropical garden around

nothing

The seafront bungalow had truly amazing views! We loved staying right on the water and falling asleep to the sound of the waves. Highly recommend staying in Seapuss 2 (closest room to the water). Jakes has a fun, laid-back vibe. The staff were all super friendly and food was the fastest we’ve experienced on the island!

Nothing I didn’t like.

Service, food

Price was a little high

I live in New York, but born and grew up in Top Hill St Elizabeth as a child I always visit Great Bay just to hang out at the beach there, but hunie staying at Jakes was beyond my expectations, the entire staff was friendly and very helpful, checknin was a breeze. My villa was Sweet Lips it was everything I was looking forward to and more it was clean the mattress was so comfortable I slept like a baby. I love the rustic look of the villas each one individually designed a different way. The breakfast was delicious the callaloo fritters was out the park. We had dinner right next door at Jack Sprat needles to say the food is still exceptionally tasty service was quick. What can I say my overall stay at Jakes was relaxing and so tranquil. My favorite part was at night hearing the waves hitting the cliff. I would definitely recommend and I definitely going back, my family also loved ir.

There was nothing to dislike I was in paradise.

Everything!!

Jakes felt more like a retreat than a resort. Focus on restfulness and simplicity, but still had the amenities that we wanted. liked that it was away from big cities and did not have a touristy feel, but more local flavor. Loved the rustic chic decor and being right on the sea!

Not quite enough beach loungers. Long drive from any airport. Not enough room outlets.
