Holiday Home Rental Description
Designed by Prince Kasimir Korybut in 1993, Almond Hill is a lovely private home located on a former coconut plantation just 20 minutes from Montego Bay and one minute from posh Round Hill where guests enjoy complimentary resort membership.

Spacious bathrooms with mirrored walls adjoin each bedroom. The master bathroom features an oversize bathtub and open shower area with floor-to-ceiling louvered doors that open to a walled garden.

Perhaps best of all is Almond Hill’s design around the large furnished verandah – cooled by tradewinds and located for its superb view nine miles across the sea to the harbor and town of Montego Bay. A haven for reading and napping, the verandah is most memorable for wonderful candlelight dinners served here with the romance of distant lights reflecting on the bay.
