Site Information:
Sea Palms
All apartments have spacious living / dining areas which open onto your own private patio or balcony where you may enjoy the ever changing moods of the sea.
|
More Info: Each apartment has a Fully Equipped Kitchen which is always at your disposal... though you will enjoy the leisure and luxury of having your meals prepared and served by your personal maid / cook, Island Style!
You may choose from 1, 2 or 3 bedroom units. The spacious master bedrooms have king size bed as well as walk-in closet and private bath. Second and third bedrooms have twin or queen beds. The two and three bedroom apartments have an additional full bathroom.
Ocho Rios does not, as its name suggests, have eight rivers. The original Spanish name was, appropriately, Las Chorreras (meaning "waterfalls"), which the English settlers inexplicably garbled into Ocho Rios.
Rivers are, however, a very prominent feature of the Ocho Rios area. Most famous of these rivers, which also boasts Jamaica's most famous waterfall, is Dunn's River. No one should miss the experience of climbing this magnificent falls!
Today, Ocho Rios is one of the most popular travel destinations in Jamaica, boasting a wide range of attractions and activities. From craft markets to art galleries; from roadside "Jerk Pork" stands to European style restaurants; from strolling the beach to teeing off on world class golf courses; from snorkeling in a sheltered cove to Para Sailing over the sea, Ocho Rios has indeed much to offer!
Ocho Rios is in the Parish of St. Ann, called the "Garden Parish" because of it's lush tropical beauty. Shaw Park Gardens, famous for its profusion of hibiscus and poinsettia and its breathtaking view of the bay and coast below, is just minutes away. Also nearby is Fern Gully, a three-mile roadway through a river bed, with numerous twists and turns beneath a canopy of lush topical rain forest foliage.
For reggae enthusiasts, the final resting place of Jamaica's reggae superstar, the Honourable Bob Marley is at nearby "Nine Miles" which is near the town of Runaway Bay, so named as the area where many runaway slaves escaped before emancipation.
Nearby Attractions: Sea Palms is near to water-sports, scuba diving, snorkeling, fishing, golf, horseback riding, shopping, restaurants, clubs and all other Ocho Rios attractions including the world famous Dunn's River Falls! And so much more!
From searching for that special bargain in the Ocho Rios Craft Market, to world class golf at the Sandals Golf and Country Club, you'll have plenty to do in the Ocho Rios area!
Amenities: All bedrooms are air-conditioned, and ceiling fans throughout the apartment compliment the cool Caribbean sea breezes!
Of course all linens, towels and beach towels are included. Personal laundry service is available at a small additional charge.
- Air Conditioned Bedrooms - Ceiling Fans - Spacious Living / Dining Area - Cable or Satellite TV - Private Patio or Balcony - Fully Equipped Kitchen - Personal Cook/Maid
